I've been trying to track down Bullets Over Broadway for quite a while now, but it's been proving a tricky little bugger to find and all. If it's better than Purple Rose, it'll definitely be worth my time.

You should - it's one of the funniest movies I've ever seen.

It was really bad. I don't think showing ****s and girls ****ting themselves are funny at all. That's what this movie was relying on the whole time. Just sucked.

I just watched Rio. What can I say? It was meant to be entertaining. i was entertained.

YouTube - Rio Trailer

mission accomplished, i guess.

I'm not judging. Pixar kids films are genius, because the entire family can find something to laugh at in them.

Tron 2. No, I saw Green Hornet after that.

Wait, when was Tangled out?

Really looking forward to the opportunity to get out and see an age-appropriate and/or gender appropriate movie.

This Greek film is definitely from the Michael Haneke school of film making. Odd angles, lack of ambient music and lack of a colour palette at times.

It's a very sterile film in both subject matter and visual style. A middle class married couple keep their 3 late teen children in virtual isolation from the outside world and even assign different meanings to some everyday words to seem to keep them safe from any of the ills from the outside world but of course biology takes it's course and violence on an incremental level and sexual awakening come to the fore.

In fact I absolutely hated this film on one level as it's fairly disjointed story wise and seems to revel in it's cold, clinical approach to the characters but there is also no doubt that it is an intelligent film that poses serious questions about protecting people from the world but ultimately this overbearing stance is not always the right thing to do.

I just about got through it but doubt it if I will watch it again.

Scream 4. Doesn't quite pull off the critique-within-a-movie ...thing? But is surprisingly funny and well cast. I haven't seen any scream movies before, but was there always so much commentary about the horror genre?

The movie seemed like straight fan service, so i think if you are familiar with the other films you'll like it a lot.

I have been meaning to check this movie out, thanks for reminding me.

Watch the first Scream.
Yes there has always been loads of commentary about the horror genre as a whole and about the rules of what happens in a horror movie then people proceed to do everything that they aren't supposed to do when in a horror movie and end up dying. Pretty hilarious imo.
