I'm bored (so here are some of my opinions)
Mini "Reviews" of some flicks I've seen recently:
High Tension: Really liked the movie - Hated the ending. I've enjoyed both movies I've seen so far by these guys though (they also did The Hills Have Eyes remake) and thought they did good job of building, well, tension. I definitely recommend if you can stomach gore.
The Omen (2006): I was bored.
The Harry Potter Series: I finally got around to seeing all of these movies. I thought the 1st installment was painfully boring, but the following movies were much better. I didn't care much about the story in the Prisoner of Azkaban (3rd movie) but I thought the cinematography was fantastic. Even though I enjoyed them well enough I doubt I'll be seeing any of them in the theatre.
Good Night, and Good Luck.: I really enjoyed this movie, and not just because of George Clooney (who also directed one of my fave movies ever, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind). But he is really pretty.
Metropolis: One of the more random additions to my Netflix queue. (It's a 1927 German Sci-Fi silent film) I think Greg was pretty bored with it. He spent the first half snarking on all of the actors and the 2nd half sleeping. It did drag at times, but I really did enjoy the ending and found the lead actress super enjoyable.
Syriana: It made me feel really stupid.
...other things...
Disappointed: "Running With Scissors" is getting pretty bad reviews, and I've been looking forward to this movie for 2 years. I loved the book, so I may just read it again instead of wasting money to be disappointed at the theatre. (Which is what I should have done with Rent, except of course replace "reading the book" with "listening to the Original Broadway cast CD")
Looking forward to: "8 Films to Die For" Film Festival November 17th-18th. Fun!
And finally,
Addicted: In the past month I've aquired 3 more Buffy ornaments and 3 more action figures. I'm currently bidding on even more on Ebay. Frak.
We also bought Marvel Ultimate Alliance for our Xbox this weekend and Greg was late to work today because of it. Which isn't really my addiction, but it's still damn funny.
