Anvil! The Story of Anvil
Great documentary! I really felt for these guys. Banging your head against a wall like that for decades must be unbelievably frustrating.

Not the greatest movie in the world but it probably is Paul W.S. Anderson's greatest work... which is kind of sad when you think about it cause the film is now 14-years old. Also the video game Dead Space completely ripped off the premise and a lot of the items, like the magnetic boots.

I actually like that movie quite a bit though it certainly hasn't weathered the years very well. When I saw it in the theater it definitely creeped me the fuck out, especially that short video clip of the previous crew killing/screwing/eating each other or whatever the hell they were doing.

Actually I kind of liked the special effects, especially seeing the little water droplets in zero gravity, that was awesome. And yes, that video was easily the creepiest part of the film. It was a decent film, not the greatest, but certainly not the worst.

and The Thing, and Scanners, and Pitch Black, and Screamers, and The Fly, and Dark City, and maybe even Children of Men.

Schindler's List

Seems like this film either gets a lot of hype or a lot of hate, and given that I'm not usually a huge fan of World War II-themed movies (it's just such a saturated genre), I didn't know what to expect going in. I think I'm firmly in the fan camp now. There were some truly moving moments and it gives an exceptionally traumatizing look at the German invasion of Poland and the ensuing death camps. Plus, Ray Fiennes was really good.

Extremely dated 70's conspiracy thriller ,but decent on account of the direction and Beatty's performance nonetheless.
