    I Love Super Troopers!

    Do you know how fast you were going back there?

    I Like the Meow part also!

    Another movie I've recently watched was The Dukes of Hazzard and he directed it and it had a part similar to that in it, not the meow part, but the speed limit part! I'm probably the only person that likes The Dukes of Hazzard though!

    Yesterday I saw Hide and Seek. Was quite good. Robert deNiro acted very well! Love him! But I didn't understand every fact. Why was Emily painting herself with two heads in the end?
    Anyway..

    Afterwards I watched Amytiville Horror. Has been the remake with Ryan Reynolds. This time I was sleeping well. When I've seen that movie a few months ago I had some trouble sleeping. *lol*

    I watched 'Equilibrium' last night.
    It wasn't the first time I've seen it but it's just one of those movies that sometimes need to be seen more than once. It's a visually stunning film that has a lot of similarities to several works of dystopian fiction, the one most apparent to me was it's similiarities to Brave New World, and --despite that -- it really does carry it's own message to society.

    Christian Bale was perfect in it and his outrageous acting ability really kept the movie from becoming too unbelieveable, which is something that, in my own opinion, shouldn't happen to science-fiction movies.

    I was finally able to see Borat yesterday & I must say I have not laughed this hard since...forever I guess :lol:. Despite the fact that there were a few gross parts I found that every penny I spent on the ticket was worth it. Without giving anything away the bed & breakfast scene was the best part in the entire film. Oh, that and when he visits the yard sale to get the tear drops from the "gypsy" :lol:. His obsession with Pamela Anderson was hilarious. All I can say is that Sacha Baron Cohen is a frigging genius & I would definitely see this movie once or twice again before it's released on DVD. This is by far the best comedy released this year!

    That's one of my favourite films. I like that it's low key but it gets across what it wants to say. And of course, Christian Bale is just amazing. He really carried the movie, and I can't really imagine any actors who could do what his character did in the beginning but made us root for him in the end (I'm trying to not give spoilers, haha).

    I watched 28 Days Later again the other day and as always I loved it. When I watched it the first time I was thrown off by the violence but now I'm used to it. I like the message in the movie that the zombies aren't the worst thing that could happen to humanity but mankind itself. Plus, Cillian Murphy, who is one of my favourite actors ever, was awesome in the movie in that you could really see the transformation in his character.

    I think Cillian Murphy is an amazing actor. I've not seen 28 days later, but I'm hoping to in the coming months. I also want to see Breakfast On Pluto, it looks like a great Cillian Murphy film. :)

    The last film I saw was Who Framed Roger Rabbit. :lol: I've not seen it in years. :eek: I always loved the story (although when I was younger, I used to get very upset when Judge Doom put the cartoon boot in the toxic stuff). I also loved the idea of cartoons with humans. In my opinion, it's the only film that pulled off that concept very well. :)

    I saw The Departed yesterday. It's a great film. I was a bit worried about it because all the critics have said it's good and I don't usually like films that critics like. It is great. Not one to watch with the parents though I don't think. Especially my dad. He'd lose it big time with all the swearing.

    The beginning was a bit confusing and the ending was weird. Not sure about it. My friend told me what happened at the end and I was still surprised.

    I'm so happy that I saw Casino Royale today! Before I walked into the theatre I thought Daniel Craig would be a horrible but wow, was I proved wrong! He may not be the best looking Bond but he's one hell of an actor. He has great wit & he exceled in all the chase scenes. This may sound a little superficial but he has the most beautiful blue eyes that I've ever seen. The actors & dialouge(sp?) weren't the only good things in this film. The locations were breath-taking, especially towards the end when they were in Venice. I was unsure of the area where Bond & Vespa were in when she wore the green dress but it was lovely as well. Whoever was in charge of picking the film locations made an excellent choice. The soundtrack was great as well, especially the opening theme. Speaking of which the opening credits were the best opening credits that I've ever seen in the history of films. It was so visually appealing. Anyway, before I ramble on I must say that this is one of the best Bond films ever. Daniel Craig will prove a lot of people wrong, especially those who were upset that Bond was played by a blond haired man. The hair colour doesn't matter. The quality of the film does & that's what delivered in the end!

    I finally saw Red Dragon on dvd and I must say that it pales in comparison to Manhunter. I think Anthony Hopkins is wonderful as Hannibal and Ralph Fiennes is a much better Dolarhyde than Tom Noonan but Edward Norton is wooden in his portrayal as Will Graham.

    I'm hoping to see Casino Royale in the next week or so. Sounds like a good movie.

    The Transporter 2. I really liked it! Jason Statham is awesome, and the action was pretty much as cool as the first one. I like when the sequel holds up to the first one. :)

    Just watched Elf on tv. Pretty good movie, Will Ferrel is hilarious. I still like watching re-runs of the SNL episodes when he does Celebrity Jeopardy.

    Casino Royale... watched it two nights ago, at the cinema.
    It is dead good. Daniel Craig is a wonderful Bond.

    Let's see... I watched the 4th Harry Potter movie on HBO last night, but that was probably the fifth time I've seen it so...yeah. On Saturday, I saw Cry Wolf. That was a pretty good movie. I've been wanting to see it for a long time. It was one of those movies that has a completely unpredictable ending... well, at least I thought so. But I love movies that you really have no idea what's gonna happen next...
