    I'm getting excited for the summer movie season. I love sci-fi and horror, and it looks like there are a few coming down the pipeline. I'm loooking forward to Apollo 18 and Super-8. Kicked off the season with Battle LA (a good popcorn flick), and Insidious, which had a few good scares.

    Saw Source Code last night, I highly recommend it, it was a cool concept and idea.

    Seeing a midnight show for Scream 4 tonight


    Scream 4 was great. Better than the 3rd one and might be better than the 2nd (haven't seen that one i a long time). Definitely worth seeing if you are a fan of the franchise. Some parts I didn't care for, but don't want to spoil anything.

    saw Water For Elephants last night (just finished reading the book the day before). I didn't really have high expectations going into it. It was ok, but the book was waaaay better. Left out some stuff which i can understand but I felt they could have put them in there. Pattinson and Reese were ok as the main characters. Really dug Christoph Waltz as August though.

    Anyone see "21 Grams"? I saw about over an hour last night, fell sleep, and woke up at the end.

    Watched Machette. I was kind of disappointed. I was hoping the film was going to be more stylized like Black Dynamite, but it was just shot in a modern way with some quick edits and film grain superimposed to give certain scenes an old feel. I think the original trailer for it was kind of better than the actual movie.

    Still it had some funny scenes though. I got a huge laugh when one of the henchmen described the Federales as being like the DEA, CIA, and FBI all rolled into one. Hilarious. On many levels.

    I actually watched this on Saturday and I loved it. Of course I love horror films and gore/special effects. Bloody violence throughout was great, and awesome cast. I will say that this is not for everyone though!

    Rubber anyone??

    My mate told me about this, and I thought "no fucking way" but I dare anyone to watch the trailer and not want to immediately want to fucking watch this movie. Two words, fucking epic.

    Watched Black Swan with the wif-e last night and I'll give it a thumbs up. If I can sum the movie up (spoiler alert) I would say that it's like fight club except with girls. But I thought is was very well done and Portman deserved the award.

    watched a few movies over the long weekend.

    salt - not bad. worth the effort if you need something not to heavy with a little action.

    toy story 3. all the reviews here said it was fantastic. i was left feeling a little empty. kind of lame, but decent enough to watch

    zombie strippers. i love zombie moveies and naked women, but had to turn this one off halfway thru. it was just that painful to watch.
    81 is now off the air

    21 Grams is incredibly depressing but it's an excellent film.

    Am I the only one who thinks its badass that Directv is showing all the best films from Tribeca on Pay per view this year?

    81, would you have made it all the way through if it were "Zombie Strippers with Mustaches"?

    i may be the only person that moved sucker punch. i was moved to chills and near tears by it. just the whole theme of it, that the answers are all inside you, just sort of sums up the last oh half decade of my life. Such a powerful film, at least for me,

    I'm not sure. I saw a promo for it but it didn't specify when they were going to start airing them. I need to look into it

    Just saw the promo again. "The Union" was not on there but that doesn't mean they aren't showing it. The damn promo doesn't say when all this starts though.
