Really? I thought it looked like it's pretty funny.

Sleeping through it was caused by attending a pub crawl an hour before, and by then I was sobering up. And I never like a movie when I'm sobering up, so I wouldn't put any worth into my opinion of Get Smart.

Lol, k then.

I don't know. Indiana just wasn't the same. The way he enters the movie, bah. Pulled out of the back of a car and thrown onto the ground? Oh how the mighty have fallen.

The storyline could have worked if it wasn't for all the crappy details. Some scenes made me look away in shame.

But maybe it gets better the second time I watch it. If I ever will.

I watched The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou a few days ago. I'd read reviews that said "worst movie ever" and stuff, but I liked it a lot. I'd give it 7,5/10.

I also watched Juno. This one I loved. The movie itself may not be a 9/10, but the emotion, the character development is great. 9/10

Aaaand I just watched School of Rock. Those kids sure know how to play

Just saw "In Bruges". A darn fine flick-a-rooney.

Saw Wall-E on Sunday.

That was awesome, minus the bullshit article some radicals wrote about it saying it was like "fascist" or some shit.

Wall-E was amazing.

I think there was meant to be a LOT of symbolism, especially since it was a mostly dialog-less movie. Especially HAL / The emperor's "force shock" attack / tons of others. I wish I could see a list of all the references.

I watched the Italian Job.
Was a pretty fun movie.
Edward Norton was weird in the role.

Angrist · 07-03-2008, 10:51 AM

Wasn't there some story that Norton didn't even want to play in the movie but he had some kind of contract which basically made him? I think he had to play in 3 movies of that studio. But he had signed it long before he got famous. I can't say I feel sorry for him.

I just saw Hancock last night. It was alright, coulde have been way better. Just barely worth the price of admission.

Everyone needs to go find Lone Star State of Mind.

Most hilarious movie ever.

Joshua Jackson does have a way of lighting up the screen, doesn't he?

I watched Wanted in a theater last night. It tried to be too much like The Matrix. And a bit like Rocky and stuff. Didn't have too much originality, and the story was predictable. I give it a 5/10

Then I came home and watched Cloverfield. I had never watched Blair Witch, so even if it had been done before, I really liked the amateur camera shooting. And the action was pretty good as well. And the ending..well..that was like Lost

I liked the move a lot though. 8/10
