I saw Robocop back in the 80s and remember not being impressed by it.  Seems like I remember it being pretty cheesy.

I'm just REALLY over the whole gritty, realistic action movie thing. I want movies to be fun again.

You sound so world-weary!

Speaking of movies (old internet thing).

I saw "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" this weekend, and quite enjoyed it. Because I am a HUGE NERD.

Did you read the books? I thought they were OK, but could see how they'd make a really good movie.

This makes me a giant douche for talking this way about a comic book movie but, the way they compressed the timeline of the movie really the emotional punches of the story, which I felt made the whole thing work. It's grown on me on rewatches though, and I always love an Edgar Wright commentary.
Watching the alternate ending on the DVD feels way more consistent with the rest of the film.

Anyone here seen Begotten (wikilink)? Looks creepy; I am reading that maybe it just sucks.

The King's Speech was awesome. My friends all came out of it pissed off that the idea of royalty still exists. I realized... it really doesn't bother me.

First movie I have seen in a while where I cannot think of any flaw.

G.N.A.R.
(full movie.)

I found this movie because while I was skiing a difficult line under a chairlift, someone going up shouted "I'm the best skiier on the mountain!"

How do you respond to that? Once I got home I had to google that, and I found GNAR. I have watched this movie maybe 8 times now and have now have sought out and watched many other Shane McConkey videos.

It is hilarious, irreverent, in poor taste and makes me laugh every time I watch it. Get a bunch of your friends together and put it on. Doesn't matter if you ski or not, you will laugh.

started watching a Tyler Perry movie last night. Really into it, in a weird way. It was almost like two different movies mashed together, because half of it was really serious drama, and the other half was zany fart comedy. It would transition from a rape scene to a bunch of old black ladies smoking pot and farting. Really really bizarre.
