"Stranger Than Fiction" was the best movie i've seen in awhile.
You can't argue that Kevin Smith doesn't at least get at the heart of mediocrity in American culture as it relates to the generation that was raised by the TV. Unless the work of Tim Burton is gospel to you and Kevin Smith is the slandering Anti-Christ.
I want to see Stranger Than Fiction. It looks funny in a "why are we here?" kind of way.

I saw a hysterical animated spoof of Lord of the Rings. At the end of the movie, Sam and Frodo are trapped on a precipice and at the last moment, whisked off to safety in the claws of an eagle. In the spoof, the movie opens with Sam and Frodo being carried in the eagle's claws. They fly over Mt. Doom (or whatever the fuck it's called) and Frodo drops the ring in. Sam says, "Can you imagine how long that would have taken if we tried to walk the whole way?!" Frodo laughs hysterically. End of move. Total time: 00:03.

I liked it, but was then told by a good friend that it was a piece of crap. Still, In my opinion, it was a good movie. Probably had it's faults (i would have to reread the book), but the movie is still better than most of the crap posing as entertainment....

Anyone heard anymore about the Joy Division film? there were rumours Jude Law was going to play Ian Curtis, if he does I shall gouge my eyes out and send them to him to show how much I detest every ounce of his being :mad:

It was okay, but I think Colin Farrell played Bandini with all of the meanness and none of the humor, which made it pretty flat and dreary overall. If you haven't read Ask the Dust, definitely see the movie first (if at all).
There's no way a movie could ever capture a really fine book, and if you look back through the history of movies you'll see that's pretty much always been the case. There are some really well done films based on books, but they can't compare to the books themselves.
what's the friend part got to do with it??? You don't need to impress us, we know you've got friends!!

little miss sunshine, very good....
devil wears prada, good chick flick (which means I enjoyed it!)
Zardoz, Man Of The Century. Both were great.

great dvd. it's packed with loads of extras.
An Inconvenient Truth, very interesting documentary, a shame Gore could have (or 'he was'...) the next president, instead 'you' wound up with that war criminal BUSH.

This movie is so what I've been looking for. The overall direction was so great I need to go see the movie again to figure out how much I liked the actual characters (I thought Clive Owen delivered a stellar performance). Go see it Go see it go see it Go SeE iT!!!
