I was on imdb yesterday, and they were boasting about having a Chris Evans Gallery on the front page. Seriously. I about shit myself.

Fuck that movie.

because I liked the trailer but the movie was so-so. It needed more foetal imagery.

Went and saw Push. It wasn't too bad. I wasn't bored watching it and it was entertaining it. You'll enjoy it a lot more if you go to have fun instead of trying to analyze it, it has its plot holes. The main girl, Kira, I couldn't pass her eyebrows. Sharpie brows. Dakota Fanning should skip 13-17 and just go straight to 18.

Straight into full-blown meth addiction? Sounds reasonable.

Walk Hard - Better than i was expecting. Loved Jack White's brief appearance as Elvis.

Slumdog Millionaire - fucking great movie! My favourite for 2008.

About to watch Gran Torino...

I sniggered a couple of times...that might have been one of the times. It was like some cheap matinee farce, trying too hard to be daring, falling flat on it's flabby arse.

Meh

everybody who cameo'd as a famous musician was fun to watch. Frankie Muniz as Buddy Holly? What the fuck?

yes. in fact, get two tv's and watch it twice at once.

Walk Hard has its moments, but too much slapstick IMO. That shit should have died with Lloyd Bridges.

frost/nixon was outstanding, especially if you give a crap about american history like i do

langella's voice was pretty exaggerated at times, but he was still A+

If it halfway stands up to Nixon, I'll get around to it.

I enjoyed it, even though part of the fun was waiting for what you knew was going to happen.

really liked 'gran turino'

cons - the acting from most of the hmongs wasn't so great
the 'he's a racist crotchety old man!' stuff in the first half was almost over the top

pros - eastwood :cool:
the barber shop scenes, which really made me miss my landscaping job

VERY not so good. Totally changed the emphasis of a lot of things, missed others and changed the ending.

Saw it yesterday and it gave me what I needed. Didn't really have any complaints. I was glad there were no Korea flashbacks or other such cheesy devices.

Put on "Elmo in Grouchland" yesterday with my 2-year old. We turned it off after about 10 minutes because "Elmo sad" and the grouches were "too noisy." Two midget thumbs down.

I have not seen any of the Oscar nominated films. Oscar noms tend to be Kryptonite to me...
