    So I saw "The Raven" last night starring John Cusack. It was ok. Something felt like it was missing, direction maybe? I think the director missed some points here and there. and the acting was just average.

    I never knew about this show, my wife said she loved it and wants to see it even though it is probably different than the original series.

    I think most people went for the novelty of seeing all those people in the same movie. Now that they've seen it, I have a feeling the sequel won't do as well. Sure, they added a few more names, but it's still the same concept. Cram as many action stars as possible into one film, and the rest will sort itself out.

    moneyball was interesting, if not a little too long


    planet was a major dissapointment.

    I thought it was a little to long or slow too. Plus I found it difficult to process Brad Pitt as Bean and in a baseball movie altogether. I guess Kevin Costner was booked.

    Saw 50/50 tonight. When i saw the PJ20 screening at the troc in philly they had raffles afterwards. One of the prizes was a 50/50 shirt. I was wondering why that was included now i know why (they played Yellow Ledbetter at the end of the movie). Didn't really surprise me too much (mainly cuz the movie takes place in Seattle). Good movie and decent soundtrack. Had some funny moments and touching ones as well :)

    I watched this the other night. Cried like a baby at the end. It was a really nice film, I like how it ended, though I was expected a different ending.

    I cried more when Yellow Ledbetter came on, I think I have been a bit stressed and overworked, plus I leave for Europe in 42 days and then I will be in San Francisco for 6 months. Longest time away from my family and Australia. I know it will be amazing and I will meet amazing people. I just think it was a flood of emotions came and hit me at one time.
