CODE
starring Morgan Freeman and Antonio Banderas. Well put together. More twists than a ride on the Scrambler, and a surprise ending that is near impossible to predict. I loved it. Come to think of it, I've never seen a Morgan Freeman movie that wasn't excellent. |

Ashes Of American Flags - Wilco

We had to sit through Wanted last night. What an incredibly retarded movie. Just like every other screenplay I had to critique in college written by classmates who had seen the Matrix too many times. I am utterly bewildered how this thing got such a big budget, not to mention Morgan Freeman.

They're not DVDs, but I just watched Watchmen and started on Planet Earth on Blu-Ray. Very cool.
Watchmen had deleted scenes restored, which may not be good for people who don't like long movies, but was great for me. I watched Planet Earth on cable, but the Blu-Ray has the original narration. No disrespect to Sigourney Weaver, but David Attenborough is the voice of nature. |

Gran Torino

What did you think BB? My Dad HATED it, but he thinks the Clint of the old days is wonderful and I dont think he likes the modern Clint.
|
I liked 'Gran Torino',from the point of view that it had shadows of the 'old' Clint Eastwood...especially at the end.
<spoiler below,for those who have not seen it yet> When he precipates the confrontation between himself and the Gang..there's more than a shade of his 'The Good,The Bad,and The Ugly' trilogy, but the outcome has more....significance.It reminded me more of John Wayne in 'The Shootist',his final movie. |
I've just finished watching Ken Burns excellent series of documentaries detailing 'The American Civil War'.I left the experience feeling that I knew more than when I started out, and surely that is the aim of such a piece of work.

I tried to watch Paul Blart: Mall Cop
Couldn't do it. Went back in the little tyvek envelop after the first half hour or so. I hate it when all the good stuff is in the commercial. |
I made it as far as the bar scene and had to stop. Its pretty bad.
|
Yup. Sucked. (Mall Cop)
I took a trip down nostalgia avenue (which I am renowned for), and watched American Graffiti today. Great movie. I actually WATCHED it this time since I wasn't making out with a girlfriend the whole time. Hard to decide which time was more fun..... |
I just put in Crash. I think it's interesting, though I've seen it before I always find new stuff.
There is nothing on regular cable TV. |
