THE NINES This movie was a mind f*** that gave me no answers but was surprisingly entertaining. I honestly don't know if I could ever recommend it, though, as it was even too weird for me.

I saw "I Am Legend" and "AVP 2" a few weeks ago in the same night. I thought Legend was good, and I really enjoyed AVP 2. I thought AVP 2 is what the first one should of been.

Saw "The Kite Runner" today.
Note: this is not really a movie should take a girl you'd like to possibly get romantic with to. I did. Kinda a mood killer.
But besides that, an awesome movie. Depressing as hell,though. I won't spoil it, but it gets really depressing, especially in the second half(but the first half isn't exactly that rosey either). Also, about a good Half/Two-Thirds of the movie is in Farsi, with English subtitles, just to warn you. Also, some parts are graphic/disturbing. Not much,but a little.
But if you know what you're getting yourself into(the depressing subject matter, the subtitles, etc) and it doesn't bother you, then you should see this movie.
Gripping and inspiring.

I recently saw the movie Audition...and let me just say that movie scared the crap out of me. Easily one of the better horror movies I have seen in a long time. The build up to the horror is so well down. The movie starts out honestly like a romantic comedy, but then towards the end becomes one of the most riveting films I have seen in many years. Quite simply this is one disturbing movie and if you're into scary movies I highly recommend seeing Audition, you will not be disappointed.

I just saw Rob Zombie's Halloween the other night and I enjoyed it.Liked how you saw the progression of Michael Myers.

Just saw Cloverfield for the second time in as many days, and it was even better the second time. Of course, that may have been because I was prepared and took a dramamine before the movie this time. But it was just a fantastic movie experience and still has been thinking about it. That is the mark of an excellent film.

I finally saw Batman Begins tonight, to which my buddy out West was stunned about, mainly because he saw it six times in it's theatre run (Huge Batman fan).
However I really enjoyed it and was blown away. Excellent preformances by Christian Bale, Michael Cain and Cillian Murphy. Also there was one line that was one of the best I have heard in a long while:
"People need dramatic examples to shake them out of apathy, and I can't do that as Bruce Wayne. As a man,I'm flesh and blood. I can be ignored, I can be destroyed. But as a symbol...as a symbol I can be incorruptible. I can be everlasting."
Highly recommended.
4.5 out of 5

Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The beginning.
Was on at the bar I stopped at after work. Pointless, just pointless.

Inspired by the Sarah Connor Chronicles I watched Terminator 2 for the first time in many years. Enjoyed it better than ever and looking back am still amazed at how graphicly advanced that movie was for it's time.

The Zeitgeist Movie ------------------------ Docu-drama type film, covering issues we cannot talk about on this board (religion, politics)
4.5 out of 10 - good concept, but just too much of a 'conspiracy theory' to everything, some of it outright ridiculous.
