Percy Jackson indeed was horrible. They killed the originality and the impact of the story. Clash of the Titans was no different either. I only watched it because of Sam.

I just saw Love and Other Drugs. I would like to say that it was completely disappointed not what I was expecting based on the initial trailers... it was a romance lovey-dubby story that I would rather not watch again... for any reason, not even for Harthway's naked scenes

A Walk to Remember made me cry in the movies even though I don't want to cry back then.

I also just watched Black Swan.

It was so-so. Yeah I get it, so then...? I think I share Kusachu's view in that the whole movie ought to have been made as like the ending scenes were. That would have made it more impressive. The way the movie was played out was sort of- muted, like not quite there.

I sort of got the impression the movie was somehow made for guys. Even though it was all girly and such...I mean, the only reason *I* went to see it was because my man wanted to see the lez action with his favorite fantasy girl. He would certainly never be so adamant about going to see a movie about Ballet if the girl on girl aspect wasn't there, I'm sure. :eyeroll

Watched the Green Hornet, it had its funny moments but I wasn't that impressed and it really didn't feel much like a 'superhero' type movie, more like a gag movie like Superhero Movie.

I watched The Tourist earlier. Dear heavens, Angelina in there sure is hot. I found it hard to understand the movie at all because I was looking at her the whole time!

AICN received a scoop from an event that took place at the London International School of Performing Arts, where Keanu Reeves spoke to the class about his career while promoting his new movie "Henry's Crime." He spoke briefly about "47 Ronin" and "Bill and Ted 3," but the big news came when Reeves revealed that he met with the Wachowskis around Christmas. They told him that they completed script treatments for two more "Matrix" installments. They are planning to make the films in 3D and have already met with James Cameron to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the technology. Reeves added that he's excited to return as Neo and promised that the treatments will truly revolutionize the action genre like the first "Matrix" film did.

I'm definitely looking forward to this...I liked all 3, so I will like 4 and 5

Plus one here :D
Many people I know consider Tarantino movies boring, what I absolutely cannot understand. Well, it's that kind of people who cannot watch a movie without using a laptop and a mobile phone at the same time while talking to another person sitting next to them. No surprise they cannot grasp the amazing atmosphere.

I specifically liked Death Proof actually.

I also enjoyed Inglorious Basterds. Quite long, but I thought it was very enjoyable. ^^

Gaah I'm so sad I couldn't go to this year's Sundance. Hopefully "My Idiot Brother" and "A Machine To See With" will be out soon, really looking forward to them. Especially "A Machine To See With". It seems like a superb film.

Apart from that I'm super excited for KB vol.3. Quentin can never go wrong.

I liked it. It was fun and funny. I thought both guys were good in their roles too. Jay Chou totally stole the show. I thought he was great as Kato. I've seen some criticize him on his accent, but I can't hear the difference between Mandarin, Cantonese, etc. I was just delighted they actually got a Chinese actor to play him, and I didn't feel offended on behalf of Bruce at all either. I thought he did his own thing and that was good. No one can ever touch Bruce Lee, so it was good that he didn't try.

Aww, I still haven't seen Green Hornet! ;A;

Is it worth watching in 3D at the theater or should I wait for it to come out on Bluray?

It's worth watching. I don't see it as something I'd buy since it loses it's magic after the first couple of viewings.

Took me a while to watch Inception. Awesome movie, the depth of story and the cast was marvelous. Deserves 9/10 at least.

Faster was ok I guess. Nothing special about it. Only watched it because of the Rock. Perhaps 6-7/10 would be enough for it.

Sooo, seen the first pictures of the Spiderman re-boot The Amazing Spider-Man? Anyone wanna bet they're gonna go the way of darker-styled, less goofy comic book movies that Christopher Nolan has opened up with his Batman movies? :p



Many people are saying it's stupid to have a reboot so soon after the last trilogy ended, but I'm not a big fan of Sam Raimi's Spiderman movies so I do have my hopes up for this one. The pictures look pretty cool if you ask me (well, cool for being Spider-Man...)
