Up in the Air - Fun but disappointing that they made Clooney stop being an asshole.

What an excellent bastard film this is. Everything, from Bill Paxman's wacky character to the sfx, are just so perfectly thought out. A classic.

The Good, The Bad, The Weird - Movies like this or The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo seem like they'd get a lot less praise if they were in english. Cool costumes and sets though.

The GI Joe movie is unbelievably horrible. But that should go without saying.

Folllowing - Christopher Nolan's first proper movie. Neo-Noir, fragmented storyline, cool stuff.

Assault on Precinct 13 - John Carpenter's dialogue got pretty cheesy at times, and the acting frequently left things to be desired (The lead cop was good, however). But the soundtrack was cool, and the catalyst for the events of the film is a little girl getting shot in the chest, which is respectable in my book (I have a weird book). Did that happen in the remake? Because I feel like flagrant violence against children in movies might have been more acceptable in the 70s than the 2000s.

The Warriors - This ruled, of course.

Not that I recall. Maria Bello gets shot, however, which was equally traumatic at the time.

Is the remake any good? Hopefully it's better than the remake of Halloween. Although I don't hold Precinct 13 in as high regard as I do the first Halloween, so there's less chance of me nerd-raging at it's remake.

It was better than I was expecting. No masterpiece, of course.

The Incredible Hulk - Enjoyed it. Edward Norton did a good job of portraying the stress and isolation of being on the run as well as the guilt of turning into a big green monster that fucks peoples' shit up. Needed less Liv Tyler and more Tim Roth turning into a power crazed lunatic though, because he did such a great job with the two minutes he was given.

Wall Street 2 - meh. started off well but the last 1/4 could've been much better.

I'm amazed at how good of reviews that movie is getting. Not a single person dislikes it so far.

Yeah, my interest in it has steadily gone up. I heard about it and saw the trailer and thought "0 care", then saw David Fincher directed it and was slightly interested, now I definitely want to see it.

Sympathy for Mr Vengeance - Weird and sad and hilarious. Didn't realize the girlfriend and the sister were different people until like an hour and a half in because fucking Koreans all look the same.

The Blob (remake) - The practical gore effects in this movie are great.

Robocop - Better than two, for sure.

Night of the Hunter - Robert Mitchum!

Blood and Black Lace - Saturated colors and model death.
