The last 2 films I watched:
http://thoughtsonfilms.files.wordpre...09/06/jcvd.jpg ^ Jean Claude Van Damme surprised me in that movie. I always hated him, as he always felt like some lump of muscle. It was good to see some essence in him. The broken chronology in the film was perfectly done, which gave most of the originality to the story. Also, the dialogue was pretty entertaining. **Plus, the few Seagal dissings were more than fulfilling :p: The second movie: http://www.fundaciondoctordepando.co...(2007)%202.jpg ^Another movie I loved. Also an original story. Great characters, and very interesting evolution from start to finish. The choice of songs was also nice, I might even download the soundtrack. |

This is a documentary about Korean wedding traditions and it was surprisingly entertaining. |

I finished reading the book Touching From A Distance written by Ian's widow, Deborah so I felt like I should watch the movie. Overall I enjoyed it, although I felt like they left out some crucial elements of Ian's personality to make him appear as less of a douche. I can understand why they did that though, more people are going to see the movie than read the book and the cult that has been built around Ian postmortem would not take kindly to seeing their idol depicted in any way other than what they imagine. |

A Clockwork Orange For the first time! I put off watching this for, well years now. I expected it to be quite dated and I know it's wrong of me, but I don't tend to watch many movies from the 70s, I watch some from the 80s but yeah, I felt like whilst I was watching, it was just released but set back then. One of the best films? Quite possibly, I really enjoyed it, the whole idea of morality in this was brilliant. Even though he was a monster, you wanted the best for him. |
just got tickets to see Alice in Wonderland in 3D tomorrow which, incidentally, is also my birthday. should make for a cracking good evening.
it will be my first 3D experience. not sure what to expect. but i'm obscenely excited to see this newest of Burton's masterpieces :D |

And speaking of Burton, the last film i watched coincidentally was... http://th01.deviantart.com/fs10/300W...de_by_piti.jpg I hadn't watched it in a while so i thought i'd put it on. It does seem like a rehash of The Nightmare Before Christmas at times but it's still a great little film with excellent animation. |
so Alice in Wonderland. hrmmm.
as far as the 3D goes, i don't think i'll go down that road again. i felt myself straning to see the screen through the whole movie - it jsut felt off, and it left me exhausted. it was neat to see, even downright impresssive at times, but it really did not add anything to the film. as for the movie itself - it was deliciously twisted. the whole way through there was this underlying tension between childlike innocence and downright sinister dementia. it made the whole tone of the film uncomfortable, but in a delightful way. characters were all extremely awkward, especially those played by Anne Hathaway (white queen) and Crispin Glover (knave of hearts). the only character i thought was not well cast was Alan Rickman as the cheshire cat. just didn't fit. visually the film was top notch. you can very much tell that certain sequences were made with 3D in mind which was a bit cumbersome, but Burton's wonderfully twisted sense of the world was present throughout. story was bland. it was kind of a sequel to the original Wonderland text which i was not expecting at all. but it worked well enough. conclusion - go see it, especially if you're a fan of anyone involved. lots of fun performances. but don't bother with the 3D... |
