"Six Douchebags, a Monster, and the City."
This is brilliant, and I'm stealing it.
As far as
Avatar
goes, if I view it as a 1950s/60s pulp sci-fi B movie, I really enjoy it. If I start thinking about the massive story/plot problems, my head explodes.
Sadly, it's become impossible for me to think of it as anything but Jim Cameron's sweaty junk swinging in my face for 3 hours.
I hated
Cloverfield
so deeply, I actually shouted at it while watching. Aims, your title is perfect.
I don't remember
12 Monkeys
much. I do have a certain fondness for the spectacle of
The Fifth Element,
though. Mostly naked Milla helps.
I don't remember 12 Monkeys much.
Me neither, and I've seen it again a few years ago.
I called it
12 Angry Monkeys
for so long now I have to pause to make sure I've got the title right.
12 Monkeys freaked me out more than anything I'd seen since Eraserhead by somehow managing to make Brad Pitt look exactly like the friend I was watching it with, including mannerisms and speech.
I feel like I need to watch Twilight, and yet I keep bumping it down in my queue.
Watched The Informant! and Almost Famous, and will watch Law Abiding Citizen. Next up is The Goods, Igor and Let The Right One In.
For
Let The Right One In,
watch it with the "theatrical subtitles" option (if available on the DVD you have), as they are better than the default subtitles (which were redone for the DVD release).
It'll probably default to the English voiceover version, so you'll have to change the language to Swedish as well.
When fictional vampires duke it out
"Down for the Count," a painting by Deviant Art's Poopbear, shows the Count from Sesame Street laying into the fangy-come-lately prettyboy from Twilight. It cheered me.
That's AWESOME. "ONE less sparkly vampire, mwah ha ha ..."
