I sat down by myself and had a little Alfred Hitchcock marathon last night with movies I have seen before and a few that were new to me. Now, I usually say the Coen bros. are my favorite movie makers, but DAMN, Hitchcock is a damn master! There is no one who can create a feeling like he does, whether it is excitement, fear, feel-good... I always get caught in like a trance watching, and when the "THE END" appears I wake up, as lame as it may sound. That's just how masterful he is.

The ones I watched:

The Lady Vanishes - 8/10
Rear Window - 10/10
Dial M for Murder - 8/10
Psycho - 9/10
North by Northwest - 9/10
Strangers on a Train - 8/10
Vertigo - 8/10

How did he never get an Oscar?

Samuel L. Jackson still doesn't have an Oscar.

Sam l is awesome. truly awesome. but give me one performance of his except A Time To Kill that was oscarworthy..?
Snakes on a plane? Deep blue sea?

Sam L is the coolest dude on the planet if you ask me. but since A time to kill, not that many oscarworthy performances if you ask me. he was good in Pulp Fiction, Coach Carter, Rules of Engagement and a few others but not really mindblowing. A time to Kill was in my opinion a truly spectacular performance from Sam L. other than that, cool but not great.

and lets not forget that he's the only man on the planet that can wear a kilt and still be awesome. :XD

His Pulp Fiction role is definitely on par with his performance in A Time To Kill imo. If it had been released another year I would have said he should have won it, but Martin Landau who won it that year actually deserved it even more (Ed Wood is a damn good movie, too).

Ed Wood? Wasn't that the movie where Johnny Depp played the crappy director?

If you can't afford going to the cine then just download or watch online, obviously dvd rip, not cam quality.

...Mel Gibson was able to maintain his awesomeness for a short period after Braveheart...

@organ
Meh, the golden palm easily makes up for any awards that the people involved in that movie didn't receive. Speaking of which, how the hell did Elephant win one of those?

thats something I hate doing. Dont ask me why but I hate streaming Movies or downloading torrents. It's probably cause I hate sitting on my very uncomfortable chair.

here ya go:

Just saw "Curious Case of Benjamin Button". I should say it's the most overrated film ever. It had no climax, took too long to finally end, the acting wasn't even that fantastic (or probably because the movie was so boring the good actors really couldn't do anything).

Yeah, it's the one with Johnny Depp being some kind of nerdy book historican and starts finding diabolic signs in books and stuff (well, he starts looking for the books with diabolic texts). Nothing special if you ask me, it's on of Depp's least interesting roles and one of Roman Polanski's least interesting movies I've seen. It's all very average imo.

old movie by Johnny Depp? Blai, try Don Juan De Marco. It's one of my favorite movies. It's romantic, to boot, so you could watch it at home with your date ^^
