Just saw Wall-E for the first time last night.. I must admit, I cried a little. Big fan of animated movies.. and classic Disney or Disney-Pixar. Yeah, yeah, I know I'm lame.

I just watched the two best films of the year:

is overly ambitious and sprawling, Rodriquez is better shooting some cartoonish violence and quick jump cuts. does show how skewered Mexican politics are, but Johnny Depp is totally wasted in this role. My fave is still the 1st "El Mariachi" - 4/10

Really? You prefer El Mariachi over Desperado. To each their own I guess...


Anyhow I ended up watching this last night.

It's pretty much if Waiting... was just about the waiting staff and took place in a fancier restaurant then a Red Robin knockoff. Still the movie has some pretty funny moments, Michael Clark Duncan steals every scene he's in which surprised me because I didn't think he'd be that great in a comedy movie. Basically if you liked Waiting... or have worked as a server or know someone who's worked as a server, give this one a try.

If it wasn't for the two douches wrecking the local town for their old man I may have enjoyed this better, bad acting is acceptable, annoying acting is not. Loved the colour schemes though and I don't think I can listen to Disco Inferno in quite the same way again.

I re-watched Pulp Fiction yesterday. Quentin Tarantino will always be my favourite director. I got Platoon today, which I've been after seeing for a while. Gonna check it out tomorrow.

Me and the wife just watched Super 8 which, I have to say, was a lot better than I thought it would be! It felt like Goonies meets modern sci-fi thriller. It had likable, relatable characters, a mysterious plot and was thoroughly entertaining from start to finish. Also, those kids were surprisingly good actors!

Platoon is a great flick.
I can watch that over and over.

As for me, I recently watched 50/50, a comedy-drama about a guy who gets diagnosed with some rare spinal cancer. I thought it was quite good.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt & Seth Rogen.
An unusual pairing of main actors, but it works. I'd recommend it.

So I've heard, though I've seen my fair share of Vietnam films. I've seen Full Metal Jacket and Apocalypse Now. If I watch Platoon I will have seen the big three, yes?
