I loved
Forgetting Sarah Marshall.
I've seen it three times and it gets funnier every time, maybe because I know now that Jason Segel really did have a girl break up with him when he was naked, and he started working on the Dracula musical a while ago.
Boy were you guys right about
The Haunting.
I was annoyed by some of the sound choices and I found Eleanor's narration a bit heavy handed at times but that's the scariest movie we've watched since we started this ghost kick. When the door started breathing I had to go get the cat for comfort. I do wonder- are we supposed to think Theo is a lesbian? edit... after reading imdb I guess it's supposed to be obvious Theo is coming on to Eleanor. I wonder why I wasn't sure.
Just came back from a showing of the Oscar-nominated animated shorts (plus "Partly Cloudy", "Runaway", and "The Kinematographe"). That was fun.
Wallace & Gromit were as fun as ever, but I really loved "Granny O'Grimm's Sleeping Beauty" from Ireland. "Logorama" was brilliant.
Just saw
Paranormal Activity.
It had a slow build, and it was creepy and intense at times, but it wasn't the scariest movie ever or anything. The ending was great, though, and way better than the alternate or original endings. Good call, Spielberg.
Oh John, what have you become?
Revisiting his "Savage" Steve youth, maybe.
I also saw
Shutter Island.
I loved the performances and the look of the film is AMAZING, but the script just didn't grab me at all.
Which is unusual in work from Dennis"Bring The Pain" Lehane...what happened there?(I admire his writing a lot; he'd be more of a favorite if every chapter wasn't a punch in the gut.)
I think "Hot Tub Time Machine" looks like it has great laugh potential, actually. I'm hoping it will be one of those unexpected greatnesses, like "Harold and Kumar Go To Whitecastle"
Well, the guy who wrote it was
in
Harold & Kumar.
Holy cats! I re-watched
Waitress
last night and the guy who plays her husband would NOT get out of my head and I just realized now that he played Elton in
Clueless!!
Holy cats!
Sisto? also from Six Feet Under, Kidnapped, L&O, yes?
