I saw 'La Vie en Rose' over the weekend. I hadn't heard anything about it until I bought the tickets ('it's a song about that singer person' one of my friends said, haha).
It was absolutely beautiful. I almost cried at the end, and that doesn't happen too often. I was very impressed by the way it was able to jump about through time and yet still retain it's flow. It definitely brought me a newfound appreciation for Edith Piaf.

Pan's Labyrinth.
Fuckin' awesome. What an eerie storyline and a macabre ending. I thoroughly enjoyed every second of it showing both the harsh life or reality and the easy-go life of imagination in the fairytale world.

That army captain was a right bastard! But he got his due in the end... I will say no more.
Fantastic film. A definite must see, as it is a wonderfully original idea that makes you feel there is hope for the film industry yet!
I didn't like the end though. I mean, the very very end. Like the last 5-10 seconds or whatever.
I felt a bit... "Oh, is that it? That's nice I guess... O_o"
But yes, go and see it foo'!
I have just watched Mirrormask, it was fun and different. Wasn't as good as Pan's Labyrinth, but if you like Jim Henson and his crew's work, not to mention a very original world, it's worth a look in.
There are some wonderfully mesmerizing scenes in it. Like the orbiting giants and the library and when the clockwork dummies come out and sing "close to you" in that hypnotizing way...
It was fun.

My obsession with Gypsy 83 knows no bounds. Even after a shit-tastic day, I'm all giggly and excited by the opening sequence.

Stranger than Fiction. Not a bad flick. Didn't think much of the ending though. Maggie Glynenhaal was hot. I butchered her last name.

Not exactly a movie per se, but for the past month I have been watching one or 2 episodes of Masters of Horror per night. We finished the last one yesterday, so I've seen all of season one and two.
Overall, I was pretty impressed. Of course, there were a few that were dumb as hell (The Washingtonians was particularly stupid), but that's to be expected.

I finally saw "Pan's Labrynth" and was pleasantly surprised at its depth. Everybody can probably relate to at least one fictional character; that girl is definitely the fictional me.

I really liked Pan's Labyrinth. Very cool merge between fantasy and reality. I have always wanted to go into the woods only to discover a dark secret world with creatures only contrived in your imagination.

I watched Marie Antoinette for the second time last night. Such drool-worthy costumes... And a soundtrack to match.

1408. Not a bad flick but the ending was a bit of a let down. Love John Cusak so all's forgiven.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theatres...
Deep breath.
It was a laugh riot, I found. I am a huge fan of the show, so it definately kept me entertained. There are still parts of it etched in my memory, especially the opening featurette with the hard-rock snacks. Priceless!

Really? Hmm... I found much of the humor to be funny, but it seems like a lot to take in when you're used to the 13-14 minute episodes. In some places it kind of dragged, especially with the Plutonians.
That being said, this movie has some of the best quotes out of the entire series. I've got the ol' phone set to play the, "Show me how to get some pythons like Chief Wahoo McDaniel," quote every time someone leaves a message. Cracks me the hell up whenever I hear it.

Pan's Labyrinth is/was one of the best movies I've seen in a long time.

Just seen Hellraiser Inferno. It was like having red hot nails hammered into my eyeballs. This is truly, with no reservations whatsoever, the worst film i have ever been subjected to.

The crow. It was a pretty good movie, I found the main character rather interesting.

"Pride and Prejudice" the 2005 Keira Knightley version. I just LIKE it for some reason...also "Shakespeare in Love", but the ending is crap.

The Hunger - brilliant of course, although it had trouble holding my attention at the end. What really sold it to me was the opening sequence featuring Bauhaus.
Behind the Mask - hilarious, and not as predictable as I'd thought it would be. I'd definitely recommend it to any fan of the Nightmare on Elm Street / Friday the 13th / Halloween movies, or anyone who wishes to laugh at them anyway.

Anticipated this since I saw previews in theatres. I got it on DVD today (its out tuesday I work at a video store) and I must say it exceeded what I had thought it'd be.
It's not a slasher horror which is fantastic, it has substance, a great story and amazing plot twists. Based off a Stephen King novel this movie is truly a gem amongst the movies being rolled out of Hollywood.
Without a doubt, I recommend this movie to everybody. It will scare children, it will keep horror fans entertained, and John Cusack brings a quirky bit of insanity to this beautiful film.
Easily the best Horror/Thriller you will see this year.
