I can almost set my watch to how people respond to Peanut.

The man's a folk hero. I swear. They tell tales of him on other boards, as though he were more than just a man. . .

Last movie I saw? The Greatest Canadian Tale: Peanut and the Yukon Bandit.

It's 4 hours of tundra treading, social health-caring excitement!

The Greatest Canadian Tale: Peanut and the Yukon Bandit? What?

The last movie I saw, which was tonight, was A Beautiful Mind. It was pretty good, I like the imaginary people.

It must be awful to have schizophrenia. I just found the imaginary people that John Nash (played by Russell Crow) was seeing to be kind of cool. Although, I wouldn't want to see them in real life.

I just watched "I Spit On Your Grave". It was alright. I think "Last House on the Left" is the far superior film.

American History X, and then 3:10 to Yuma.

Those were both great movies that I hadn't seen before. I don't think I've watched two movies in succession that I liked more than these two. Everyone I've talked to has said great things about American History X, I don't really know what else to say about it. But I watched 3:10 to Yuma with a bunch of people and most of them didn't think it was that great. I just really liked the adventure of it, and the action scenes in western movies are always great. My favorite:

Spoiler:
at the end when Wade's guys come to get him and offer everyone $200 to kill anyone with Wade.

I've heard only good things about both movies. I have them both on dvd, but still haven't watched them.

Jumper. Very stupid, but entertaining.

*E* Tonight I saw The Mist. Did not like it at all, but the ending is haunting to say the least.

I saw Jumper, too, and I agree with what you said. The Mist I really liked, though. The ending was sooooo depressing.

I watched this John Woo film called "Broken Arrow", it was pretty cool. John Travolta starred in it, and the other guy in it, Christian Slater, sounded a hell of a lot Steven Jay Blum.

Then last night I watched "The Saint" (Val Kilmer). It was a good movie.

Classic film. Wonderful score. I like how the film doesn't feel it has to tell you everything at once, it allows little things to slowly reveal themselves.

I saw Over Her Dead Body with the motherly one. It was OK and some of the dialogue was not bad. A 6.5/10.

Finally saw Live Free or Die Hard and loved the action. I was entertained the entire movie. Thought Justin Long was ok. Of Course Bruce was amazing in it. Good movie.

On Friday, I watched Clive Barker's Lord of Illusions. I liked it and it was very gory.

That same day, I watched the French film Eyes Without a Face. It was pretty good and I was entertained for the whole movie.

Just saw Juno, which I enjoyed quite a bit. I didn't realize that it took place right around where I grew up (although it seems most of it was filmed in Vancouver - Alas...).
