V for Vendetta - I am SO glad I didn't buy this. What a way to make a perfectly good comic book suck ass. Baboon ass, to be precise. You know, the really red ones.

I also watched through a lot of things last weekend that I didn't get a chance to post about ...

Red Lion - eh. Forgot about the samurai movie cliche where everyone dies at the end. Sorry I just ruined it for you, but I saved you two hours of your life.
Brave New World (OnDemand, not DVD) - Must have been made for tv, stayed fairly close to the story line, but the acting was wooden
Hero - visually striking, but the story lost me in a couple of places. I think I fell asleep.
Kinsey - not as bad as I expected, but some of the less savory bits of his research methodology were glossed over.
Firewall - Don't waste your time. Formulaic badguys kidnap the bank computer security guy's wife and kids to force him to do something impossible.

Which "Hero" is that?

This Hero, I'm guessing. I loved it. Most definitely eye candy, and enough story to keep me awake. It's on my buy list.

I love S.S. and Kung Fu Hustle

On Demand - White Noise. So-So. The most notable thing is that Michael Keaton has turned into a weird, scary guy. Even in the scenes where he is supposed to be very sad or happy, he has a look on his face like he's a serial killer. I can't imagine him ever again in a comedic roll.

Griff, go watch something. Something classic. :p

Gilmore Girls season Three.

Yuck.

Dude...you're supposed to post cool shit on here.

Chronicles of Narnia - better than I expected. Faithful to the book and fairly well acted.

I have a soft spot for Gilmore Girls, for a chick-flick/tv show its really well written, witty, and packed full of pop culture/music references. And not too overdramatic.

But last night, i got...

PINKY AND THE BRAIN
YES PINKY AND THE BRAIN
ONE IS A GENIOUS
THE OTHER'S INSANE!

Now sing it to "Singin' In The Rain."

"Piiinky and the Brain/Yes, Piiinky and the Brain/One ooof them is a ge-nius/The o-ther's insane/They're la-b'ratory mice/Their geeenes have been spliced/They're dinky... they're Pinky and th' Brain!"

Little Buddha. I was surprised--I knew that Chris Isaac was in it, and I knew that his kid was supposed to be a modern reincarnation of Siddhartha, but I had no idea that most of the movie was actually an overview of the tale of Siddhartha. Keanu Reeves was downright hot as the Enlightened One.

That's the one.

One of Russ Meyer's best. Great music, and lots of great close-ups of...transistor radios and portable reel-to-reel tape players! I shit you not. His obsession for radios and hi-fi equipment was almost as great as his obession with women like Kathy Harris (see that Katherine Harris thread).:)
