Watched Zoolander this weekend. That was a funny movie that got the short end of the stick. Very stupid, but funny.

Oh, and the David Bowie cameo was classic.

Was it her optimism? If so, I'm gonna guess you love Roberto Benigni. :D

 

As much as I deplore Jeunet's solo movies. As much as I hate his puerile optimism and annoying camera tricks. I know for certain that I would not physically harm the man if given the chance.

 

I'd punch Benigni straight in the kisser. No second thoughts whatsoever.

By the way, what happened to Marc Caro? IMDB has next to no info on the guy.

It's an enigma, but if you search various imdb Jeunet & Carot film boards, you're bound to dig up some interesting info.

 

He stopped directing movies with Jeunet during Alien 4 (though I think he did some design work for that unfortunate disaster). He apparently didn't fancy big studio restrictions placed upon his art.

Everybody says the Wayans suck. How can they be overrated?

Everybody says that? Then why are they still working so frakking much?

 

*I need friends*

 

 

I finally saw History of Violence last night.

I was apprehensive at first because DC is usually too twisted for me and I didn't like most of his previous work(post-The Fly). I recognize his talent but what he does usually leaves me cold and sleepy.

HoV is a very good film though with solid performances and a good story. The visuals are average, no fancy lighting or special effects but some shots are very nice to look at.

 

I recommend it. Highly.

I saw

 

Doom - which was... okay for an action movie, but totally not Doom. At all. It was more like, Resident Evil: The Movie, in Space. (Resident Evil was also okay for an action movie, but totally not Resident Evil. This seems to be in keeping with the game-to-movie trend.)

 

Serenity - which was AWESOME. I didn't know this film was enjoyable for people who haven't seen Firefly.

The Incredible Shrinking Man

 

 

Nice. Technically, it was pretty impressive.

 

 

Has anyone around here seen Malick's The New World?

Not really a movie but I watched the pilot and first episode of "Firefly" and I hate it. More phasers and space battles and less cowboys plz.

Advent Children.

 

It really sucks, but it's Final Fantasy, so it isn't a big surprise. It's really just one big FF cutscene.

 

Tifa's fight scene was fun, on account of the music.
