Pirates of the Caribean and The Ref

So i started to watch pirates which i had only seen once last night at it was about as good as i remembered it to be which is a bit above fair-to-middlin'. but to my suprise when i woke up the ref was on. Now back in the late 90's i was a huge fan of denis leary and would seek him out wherever he was, which led me to this movie that even as a teenager i though was crap built around a funny guy. Back then i was thinking couldn't they have come up with a better premise than this? Kevin spacey is in it too, but it was before he was KEVIN SPACEY. Denis Leary does his thing well, but everyone else seems like they can't figure the thing out.

Believe it or not, Centrelia is boring at 11 on a sunday

hey im up here in centrelia bored out of my skull waiting for the olyclub to close. maybe some pics maybe not.

Blade 2

Now this is a movie i could really sink my teeth into. I love these movies. they are "smart" for an action movie. They have sweet action scenes, cool gadgets, cool cars, good bad guys, and kris kristopherson. i really like the blade movies the writing is great, and i hope that me makes more movies. They are well writen and directed.

Say it isn't so.

man this movie was a stinker. But the plot was funny. A mom doesn't like her daughters boy friend, so she tells them that they're brother and sister. "hillarity" insues. kinda, orlando jones is freakin funny in this. 'nova was pretty lame but thats his party, heather grahm is hot that's her part and sally fields is a bitch and she plays it well.

overnight

This movie is pretty intersting. Not that great but pretty good. An intersting look at what hapens to someone when they think they're the shit, and they're really kinda small potatoes. Not to say that i don't like boondock saints, I do. but Troy Duffy is kinda full of himself. And its a shame too. Because i would love to see what else this guy has to offer, but it seems like he burnt all his bridges with hollywood and music, and it really made me sad to see his brother doing construction. It seemed like he had some talent, and it looks as though his brother troy pissed away all of his brothers chances. Not that he cares about anything but himself. But what do i know i only watched a documentary made by people who are pissed off because they didn't get any money for their hard work during this time. So maybe they're alittle biased. just maybe.

Harry Poter and the Goblet o' Fire

This movie was pretty good. I like these movies more with each one. The last one was cool because of gary oldman, this one was pretty much non stop action, and a cool bad guy. so what can you say to dragons, crazy eyed freaks and bitchen skulls and shit. Good work. guys, i never really didn't like the older ones but this one i actually liked. they won me over. I still wont read the books but thats just personal preferance. Not to say that i dont like the books, i think that anything that gets kids reading is fan-fuckin-tastic.

Vampire Hunter D: BloodLust

this movie is cool, yeah its not as cool as the original but its cool none the less. I'm still sick so this is gonna be a quickie. good action, its anime so i don't expect much else, it even sorta makes sense, which is more than i usually ask for. Like X-the movie has kick ass action but not a ton in the story / i understand whats going on department.

musa the warrior

this movie is pretty damn amazing. i picked it up as a whim at best buy years ago and I actually wasn't disapointed, it has sweet action a good story and characters you can care about. beautiful cinematography in the deserts of china and korea. oh did i mention kick ass fighting, and bow and arrow stuff too. oh yeah. it a good one. the girl from crouching tiger is in it too. not michelle yeuh but the other one.

somewhere in time

This movie is freaking great. i haven't watched it in a while, but christopher reeves really is fantastic in this. He sees a picture of a lady in an old hotel, and decides that he wants to go back in time to meet her. I really like the way they do time travel in this, its freakin sweet, and almost believable. Not to geeky the point of this movie isn't the time travel its the characters and the story. seriously i know this doesn't sound like me but the story and the characters are fanstastic.

martin

this movie is pretty sweet. i watched part of it on IFC when i was house sitting a while ago. The fact that you never really know whether he's a vampire or not is one of the reason its so cool. good job george romero! you make the best horror movies, all the creepy 70's stuff going on makes it very suspenseful. like him just walking around by himself. its low budget but thats part of what makes it so believeable and cool.

wizard and warriors

wow this is a sweet / crappy tv series. the two main characters are billy from taxi and jaques from twin peaks. weird eh? the semi decent sfx are distracting to say the least.

three o clock high

This movie was freakin hillarious. no really. some kid who runs the student store accidently touches the dad from kindergarten cop, and he gets pissed and tells the kid he's gonna beat him up at three o clock. hilarity insues as he tries to get out of it but the fight ends up happineng and the student body end up helping him out of his troubles.

aristocats

so i have a day off from work and what do i do, i watch an old disney movie. does that mean im lame, well maybe. but it was an okay disney movie. i had the book on tape of this when i was kid and i listened to it alot. so i knew the story pretty well, but there were some pretty un pc things in this like the drunk as shit goose. that was pretty funny, and all the swingin' cats, that was kinda funny too. and the butler who turns evil because of money, well it was kinda cool. over all id say this movie was better than i expected.

ready, aim, fire!

i am curious : yellow and blue

This movie taught me a good lesson. Just because a movie is/was controversial does not mean it is good or entertaining. Some times it is. But i mean really, showgirls was controversial when it came out and it is utter shite. I think that i used to equate controversial with good. I no longer do. I could see why this movie was contriversial in the late 60's but come on. a couple medicore softcore sex scenes and alot of docudrama bullshit. I've seen better episodes of firefly. not that these movies are terrible , becasue they aren't. it was not a waste of my time, im glad i went out of my way to see them, but i wont be watching them again and i wont be recomending them.

basicly its about this movie director who is making this documentary about the social state of sweden in the sixties and his girlfriend. it is filmed in a loose open way which is one of the only redeming values of the movie, that and the interview with martin luther king jr. was really cool i thought. but other wise i dunno, i was expecting more. another case of my hopes being too high and getting let down.

Thunderbolt and Lightfoot.

so i had never even heard of this movie till i was watching the special features of TRON and bridges was talking about how he likes to work with first time directors "last picture show" "TRON" and "thunderbolt and lightfoot" were ones he talked about, and i had never heard of it. its pretty good. kinda dated, it has that 70's film lanugage. that is a nice way of saying its slow. it wasn't made for todays audiences. so it makes you pay attention and you learn to like the characters. i find myself wishing that there were sequels because i put emotional value on the charaters, and i want to see more of them, that's just my modern film mind working. its actually a good thing that they didn't make so many sequels back then.

clint is always good as is bridges, so this movie was good too.

woohoo im starting a blog after years of ignoring the trend. why? you may ask well simply because i am bored. My plan is to start being a real dork and reviewing movies on at least a weekly basis. and if i have fun at it more often than that.

aristocrats

So I went into this movie with some amount of skeptisism. When a movie is supposed to be disgustingly funny it usually is just dumb. However this movie was funny as throwing tacobell sauce on your friends ex-girlfriends lawn while driving thier dad's dodge ram pickup. No really. Bob Sagat was HILLARIOUS. The fact that they don't distract from the dialog by telling you who is who during the movie was great. I dont know how long movie reviews are supposed to be but, well this movie was funny, and if you are asking yourself what the hell movie is this anyway, you probably wouldn't like it. Sorry to break it to you but I am a movie snob.

eraserhead

Eraserhead wha?

"But in my room
Wish you were dead,
You bawl like the baby
In Eraserhead"


Ok first off what the fuck is so great about this movie? Was i not in the mood last night? Do i need to be on drugs to enjoy this movie? God i hope not. Ok its wierd, but so is Esta Noite Encarnarei no Teu Cadáver (yes i have seen it, bitch) And that movie is old and creepy. Eraserhead just seemed like it was trying to hard. Granted first feature lenght movie. Granted Lynch was trying to make it wierd. The DVD aspect of it is great clean and clear transfer. I appreciated the calbration thing at the begining too, some people might have poorly calibrated tvs. Cool. Over all rent it if you want some stupid wierd shit to happen.

Scenes from a marriage

Ok so igmar bergman is amazing. We all know that right. His shit is hard to watch. But its always worth it. This is no different. Its tough to watch this movie but it is amazing. erland josephson and liv ullman are fucking phenominal. check it outs its worth the time invested.

adaptation

damn i love this movie, it is good. charlie kaufman is the best. spike jones directing is good too. and nick cage is actually good. belive it or not. i didn't thats why i didn't see this movie for along time. but when i finally did it was freaking fantastic. charlie kaufman writes the best movies. always fresh and always cool. i cant wait for his next one.

free tickets to super diamond on saturday

but i cant go shitty, being on call does have its downside.

episode three w/ audio commentary additional

so i relized i think why these three movies suck.

ready?

NO ONE CARES ABOUT THE STORY OR DIALOGUE.

except for the audience!!!
didn't anyone listen to what the people are saying, how about some ADR and fix that shit.?

no one is watching the wheel. the guys on the comentary say a couple times "this part is perfect" or this section is "just perfect" all they are talking about is the back ground. or makeup or production design. these are all important parts of a movie but for fucks sake did you forget about the story? george lucas kept talking about enjoying some part but having to cut it out because of "the story" why even bother. i bet the parts that he had fun on would be great. fuck star wars. make a good movie. there i said it. i never thought i would. i grew up with starwars and i love the original and i even like empire but jedi thru sith suck ass. sorry george. the ewok adventure is better, and that sucks balls too. they just keep talking about minutia of the process like what they used for stuff that they cg'd over, like the blue glove that turns into anikens bad hand. who cares, i want to hear why in the name of god was the "younglings dialoge" scene in there, we've all heard carrie fisher talk about who she felt about the stiff dialoge in starwars, and how she envied harrison becasuse he could use some more modern terms and talk becasuse he was cool. So who was the cooler character? who came out better? did you learn a lesson mr lucas? no i dont mean let harrison ford write your dialoge, nice try, WRITE SOME MORE NATURAL DIALOGUE. i mean you have ewan mcgregor and nat portman great actors why give them that shite to say, you know they can act.

ok im gonna cut you some slack george. you have made some of my favorite movies, starwars, american graffiti, and THX, and you and your companies are responcible for some incredible innovations. i will grant you that. so.

you said in your interview with wired that your plan is to make more innovative movies, experimental stuff like stan brakhage (sp?) that sounds like a plan, ill be the first in line, but it better work this time!

episode three w/ audio commentary

hmm... listening to lucas explain himself is interesting. not that great though.

if i could have...

seen they might be giants for free on sunday and i didn't does that make me a bad person? i even drove right past the building and didn't stop? hmmm? hindsight is always 20/20. they probably would have played a bunch of songs i didn't know and id be waiting for them to play particle man....

lincoln city is kinda nice when there is no one here

Ladykillers

when i first saw this in the theater i didn't think much of it. but i found myself talking about it well. so after telling people about it and finding myself likeing it quite a bit i rewatched it and ended up thinking it was freaking hillarious. its subtle to be sure but damn funny. i tried watching the original with alec guiness and maybe someday ill go back to it, but for now i just like the new one.

coen brothers blah blah, tom hanks blah blah, marlon wayons blah blah, pancake and mt. girl blah blah,

its good

Fire and Ice

ralph bakshi's movies are hard to find sometimes. they go out of print. they are an aquired taste. heavy traffic, LOTR, are out on dvd. but some - hey good lookin, street fight, and american pop is almost out of print. but fire and ice coming out is good. franzetta co created it and that makes it pretty cool. it is pretty dated by todays standards but its still cool. and disc 2 comes with the franzetta documentary painting with fire. all in all its a cool pack.

3 out of 5 taco sauce packets

outsiders: complete novel

2 ralph machio movies in two days wow. no rest for the wiched. well this movie is pretty damn good. i dont think i ever watched the whole thing. i liked all the parts put back into it. some times i think that putting parts back into movies is a bad idea ie. apocalypse now, and army of darkness. but putting the cut elements back into the outsiders was a move i thought was good. like putting the cut stuff back in T2 yeah!

It's greasers vs. Soc's and its all out war with Swayze, Estevez, Lowe, Macchio, Howell, Cruise, vs lief garret, and garret looses. so thats good, the girl is pretty damn hot, and the story is sad. but good.

Karate Kid: Special Edition (with commentary)

so if you know me you know that i fuckin love the karate kid.? i have read all the websites about it and all the stuff that they left out of the movie etc.? i am a big fuckin dork. so what. i owned the soundtrack as a kid and wore the tape out.? it was great, thanks to digital technology i own it again and its still awesomely cheesy.? so when the first one finally came out of dvd i was pretty sad to see there were no extras to speak of.? so when this new box set came out a while ago i was kinda pissy about it, but i ended up getting it used.? so now i hold in my hot little hands the copy of karate kid se that ive wanted for a while now, with the audio commentary that i've been dieing to hear. and its good, not great but everyone there is having a good time. i haven't watched the featurettes yet, but i suspect they will be good.

if you dont know how this relates to the movie then you haven't watched it enough. sucka.

3 out 5 crane kicks.

frighteners

i remember thsi movie being good. I watched it right after it came out, with barskey over at my dad's house back in 96.

it was good back then but it holds up quite well, i really like michael j fox. he rules and im sad that he is sick and not going to make anymore movies.

one of the major factors of this movie ruling is peter jackson writing it and directing it. its hard to belive that after this movie, he made lord of the rings. the wienstien brothers showed great forsight letting him do those movies. really i mean wow. dead alive, meet the feebles, heavenly creatures, frighteners, then LOTR wow.

but i digress, this movie kicks ass. r lee emery especially.

before sunset p.s.

i hope he makes another one every ten years i think america could use its own antonie dionel series. that would be cool. or someone could make an even better one. i dunno.

Before Sunset

I like this movie too. that makes me have bad taste. its kind of a cheap rip off playing off peoples good memories of a good movie. some things were great and somethings were not. like linkletter trying to make it look low budget instead of making it lowbudget. but over all i like this movie but i have to be inthe right mood. whatever. boo friggin hoo

before sunrise

i love this movie. does that make me gay? fuck you!

superman : or how i stopped worring and started to love the crappy hollwood movie.

so i remember this movie being really slow and boring and rewatching it, i can tell it wasn't made for kids it was made for grown ups with a little longer attention span cuz you have to wait along time for any payoff. margo kidder is kinda hot as a mix between demi moore (is she related to steve moore?) and courtney cox. so shes hot basicly in a wierd way.

its pretty good. im looking forward to seeing the new one, do a good job bryan singer.

the wierdest thing about it is that mario puzo wrote it. all it really needed is a delorean.

assault on precinct 13 (2004?)

when i first saw the comercials for this i thought it was a sequel to training day. but then i found out that it was a remake. then i found out it was a remake to john carpenters second movie. then i went out and found a copy of the original and i fell asleep everytime i tried to watch it. it has a snake plisken prototype in it which is interesting, but this review is about the new one,

it has none of the pacing or suspense that make the first one so cool, its just hurry hurry hurry, and i think that is one of the reasons that the old one is so hard for me to watch is that its filmed on an older cinema language. for a different audience in a different time. the new one is easy to watch too easy and fairly predictable. i liked laurence fishburne in a kinda morpheus meets frank black role. he was cool and collected and a BMF. whats not to like. leguizamo was good in his character of an annoying crack head that screams "im annonoying and will sell you out at the first possible opportunity. over all it was enjoyable but not a good as carpenters. i would like to see if the director has any other movies and i'd like to check them out.
