I thought Columbus *was* Michael Cera for a few minutes. Oops. But yeah, I wanted to see Adventureland when it came out, and just didn't get there. I really liked the look of it.

I saw Funny Games last night. It was...strange. And not as interesting as I'd hoped. The meta moments didn't elevate the film above its base premise.

I thought about putting that one in our queue but the reviews turned me off. Plus, I didn't love the fact that their kid is there for the whole thing, apparently? Some things I can't watch easily.

Yeah, I thought it'd be an interesting movie to watch after The Strangers, but it's very different. It's still people terrorizing a couple for no reason, but it's not scary. It's more...unnerving. Because the two guys are so polite. It's amusing sometimes. But, yes, the trailers never seemed to mention or show it, but their kid is part of it too. I was intrigued by the promise of fourth-wall-breaking, but it only happens a few times.

I wish I could unwatch Hostel 2 so (judging from the discussion) neither Audition nor Funny Games is for me. Misery was already on my 'no' pile and it's pointless anyway since popular culture has already spoiled the whole plot for me.

I was watching "Senseless" with Behr from "Roswell" and I could tolerate his tongue getting burned with the iron, but when the hostage takers took a nail gun and approached his nose, I stopped the movie.

I never went back. I don't know what happens in that movie.

The 9 Stupidest Surprise Endings Imaginable

(Spoilers, obviously.)

[eta: It's amazing how many of these movies I've seen but blocked out the endings too.]

I liked Identity... it's possile I've liked everything John Cusack has ever been in.

I liked Identity, too, but I knew the "surprise" going in. I did watch it for the Cusack, but I also thought it was an interesting idea - could have been executed better.

Identity freaked me out because the important date happens to be my date too. We had to pause the movie so I could wig out.

(don't know why I'm being spoiler-avoidant on a movie that's been out for yonks...)

My favorite BY FAR is "Orphan." I thought that was a joke when I saw the posting on Gawker months ago. What an awesomely crazy twist.

I agree! I thought the beginning was really well done, with a nicely realistic portrayal of a family that was *not* a happy, perfect movie family. Good tension, etc., and then BAM! Total horror movie crack! It was excellent!
