A lot of people told me that, so I may just look into it.
And I just finished watching The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I liked it.

The Thin Red Line, which was absolute dogshit, and My Own Private Idaho, which was pretty good.

I just saw Star Trek today in Imax. My God, it was beautiful. Zachary Quinto played an awesome young Spock.

The camera drove me up a wall. I know they were going for a realistic approach to the movie (i.e. a cameraman scared shitless), but it made the movie hard to follow. Not too mention it put a damper on the attack sequences.

Shivers by Cronenberg (it is really fucking freaky if you watch it alone and it revolves around parasites turning people into sex-crazed lunatics)
Little Shop of Horrors (1986 adaptation of the musical with the ambiguously happy ending and they should have kept the bleak as shit ending in)
Take a Giant Step (late 50s film with the lovely Ruby Dee as a housekeeper hanging out with and somewhat attracted to a teenage Johnny Nash getting his black growing pains on)
And I'll be finishing Straight Out of Brooklyn along with Videodrome soon.

No, it's not that I'm just not a fan, it's that the movie was terrible.

I have yet to see the newest Star Trek movie but, looking at the cast, I wonder if I should.
I mean They've got some Pretty boy, whom I've never even heard of, playing Kirk
I just have a bad feeling that this will end in disappointment, just like the new Indy movie did.

So, Ophie. Because you're so fat and ugly that no one ever liked you, you had to go and discover the wonderment that is narcissistic personality disorder coupled with a false reality on the internet in which people really care what you think. How do you really feel about yourself? Does it make you feel better to fail horribly at making someone feel as bad as you do? Honey, I'm completely understanding of why you'd hate yourself and be self-conscious, but let's just keep it at the therapist, k?  ps. Star Trek ruled, kthxbai

I think they should've ended with First Contact.

Today I watched: Evil Dead 1 & 2, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, and In the Mouth of Madness. The latter is really fucked up and inspired by Lovecraft. Quite enjoyable, but I had to torrent it (and got lucky for finding one for it).

The Hound of the Baskervilles w/ Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee.
It was part of an 11GB Hammer torrent I finally downloaded.

I fucking loved it. For a few reasons.
It maintained continuity and efficiently created a way to reboot the series if they so choose to start making more movies with a new cast. The acting was pretty good. And Simon Pegg was in it.
That's a win win in my book, haha.
And Angels and Demons was entertaining enough. You could wait for DVD for it though.

Simon Peg is ALWAYS fantastic, but that can't save it.
The acting wasn't great, and some of the writing was just confusing/stupid.
Why does that black chick try to makeout with Spock after he watches his mother die? Is that really what he needed? It was just bizarre.
Also, of course, the science of it was laughably retarded.
Nothing about the "drilling" was ok.

I just finished the 1968 file "Charlie". Not nearly as good as the book, but that is how it usually is with films I suppose. Still a smashing film though.
Had to study the charactor and read the book back in high school.

Crash. It was good, and I think it's one of those movies where you don't anticipate the ending. It's more of the "getting there" that makes it interesting.

I liked it.
