Rumor Has It- 7/10

A couple really funny moments and an entertaining comedy. Not so much a chick flick even, just a funny movie.

Blade Runner- 8/10

Resident Evil- 5.5/10 It's entertaining and a fun movie, but it really does suck.

Resident Evil: Apocalypse- 6/10 I like it better than the first, and it has more action and a better plot. The 3rd film is still easily the best.

Gus Van Sant's The Last Days.

Very, very boring. Obvious the only reason I watched it was because it was inspired by Kurt Cobain. I thought it was going to be sort of interesting, but nope. I know the actual Kurt Cobain movie that's being made won't be any better, seeing as A) It's based on "Heavier Than Heaven" and B) Courtney Love is involved (and wants Ryan Gosling to play Kurt and Scarlett Johansen to play her).

They need to let Kurt rest in peace. The Last Day's is fucking horrendous. Van Sant made Kurt out to be a mumbling fool. I wish that twat Courtney Love would hurry up and O.D.
I'm sure if Love is involved that cunt will let them use Nirvana's music too. :rolleyes: She let them use it for a fucking baseball video game.

I remember seeing the commercials for that game, what a song called "Breed" has to do with baseball, I don't want to know.

Anyway, Courtney is selling pretty much everything Kurt or Nirvana-related because she needs to "make sure people live comfortably" (Her dealers?). I mean, I wouldn't mind a good Cobain film, but this one will basically be a cinematic vibrator for Courtney.

I am a big fan of Kirt and Gus, and would not be suprised if that is close to how Kurt was to be around, I thought Last days was great.

Gone Baby Gone
I want to thank Alky & The Mothman for pointing this film out. Before their mentioning of it, I had not even heard the name. What a shame it would have been if I had not sought this one out. It certainly is one of the best films of 2007.

This little segment in the film really stood out.
It's nice to see that, even the smallest of details, still packs a wallop.

When Casey's character is running things through his head, the camera just manages to catch a television screen. On that screen is a newscast. The two hosts end a story about Amanda McCready. They state how terrible such a case is, their gazes downward and their voices low. However, it's not a second later when they turn their heads to a co-host and the topic switches to sports, and the tone of voice to upbeat.

Gone Baby Gone is not just a story about finding a little girl.

There is no question about it.
If you get the chance, watch it.
Don't even consider passing it up.

Did you like it? I watched it a few months back and thought it was excellent.
Black, black humor, a little disturbing, but very powerful stuff.

Glad you liked it. I hope the Academy doesn't stiff it like the Golden Globes did. Ben Affleck should be rewarded for showing the world that he's a filmmaker now- and a damn good one- and not just a pretty boy actor.

joshaube 01-17-2008 10:19 PM

I thought I'd prefer Gone Baby Gone, but...
No Country For Old Men takes the spot as the best film this year.

Of course, I've yet to see There Will Be Blood.

PS. I thought the ending was brilliant.

So fucking intense and realistic.

Best time I had in a theatre in a LONNNNGGGG time.

I'd never seen this movie before, but having heard goof things in the past, picked it up when I saw it at a stupid low price.
Damn good film. very Tense.

Hmm, I think I'll check it out this weekend. Thanks Gore!

Last night I watched Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King

joshaube 01-18-2008 01:03 PM

The King of Kong
Billy Mitchell is the most pathetic person I have ever witnessed,
either in real life or on film. Fictional, or non fiction. Just pathetic.

This is an excellent documentary.

yeah i really enjoyed it.
benoit, the main character, was so fascinating because he is at once both charming and wretched, and he plays that middle ground so well.

i was definitely impressed.

Going off to see Atonement now. :)
I'm excited.

Hey, that was pretty much word-for-word my review for "No Country For Old Men" thief...

joshaube 01-18-2008 04:44 PM

Well, is there any other word in the human language that could possibly convey the greatness of films like No Country for Old Men or Atonement? :p

I thought the exact opposite. I had a TERRIBLE time. Maybe it's just not a movie you should see if you have occasional motion sickness:( I had to keep my eyes closed through some of it and a lost my cookies as soon as it was over.

It was all over the place with the camera. I knew it was home movie style, but I figured since it had special effects that it wouldn't be THAT bad. I was wrong. It made me so nauseous. I suggest to stay away from the deluxe movie theater nachos, or any food for that matter, before seeing this one.

Sunshine

A lot of people didn't like this one. It is deeply flawed and none too logical, but I found the imagery and themes captivating and poetic. And odd one for sure, but I really enjoyed it.

7/10
