What Swanky Things are you Watching?

mmm Donnie Darko...

oooh, I can't wait to get all gushy when The Notebook arrives in that little red envelope.

And I should totally rent Lon's Phantom to try and get the awful taste of that Lloyd Webber disaster movie out of my throat.

Drooool, Farscape! I should totally start renting those. Some friends of mine have been gathering on Thursday evenings for months, watching an episode or two at a time. I can't possibly make it for any of those, but I could always geek out by myself while I drool over Claudia Black and Ben Browder. Yum.

Oh, and the last thing I watched was Hero. I'd already seen in in the theater, but wanted to watch it again because it is such visual splendiferousness. It did not disappoint. Gorgeous, dreamy, trippy, fascinating film.

*gasp*

it wasnt great, it was one of those movies i would liken to Spaceballs or Supertroopers, while its not a great cinematic movie, it is so stupid, its funny. It was so across the board and out in left field with Rob Serilng, it was funny.

Erin and I quote it all the time, dosent mean i did or didnt like the film

OK. It continues to sit here unwrapped on the shelf. We haven't watched it and I continue to be afraid to watch it. It is comments like this that just make me think it won't appeal to me.

Maybe I am a cranky bastard but I have to admit not liking my list of films.

- Ron Burgandy (Turned it off.)
- Dodgeball (See, Burgandy, Ron)
- Manchurian Candidate (Raspberry sound)
- Napoleon Dynamite (see above)
- The Grudge (see above)
- The Village (Gimmeabreak.)
- The Forgotten (See Village, The)
- A Very Long Engagement (Wanted to love it. REALLYREALLY wanted to love it ... but ... turned it off. My eyes were bleeding.)
- The Incredibles (I ask ya, where is the h'art? Where's the soul?)


Why? Wala ka kabalo. But I haven't had much luck choosing my films.
On my other hand there have been a few films I've quite enjoyed ...
- The Office Special
- MST3000 (any of 'em)
- The Life Aquatic

I rented the Arrested Development box set, too. Funny-na lang. Nakakatawa! That'sgoodstuff,boy,letmetellya.

Fonduely,

I found Napoleon Dynamite to be a complete and total bore. I cracked a smile maybe once, and did not find it funny enough to laugh at any time. Maybe I should have seen it with an audience, maybe I should have seen it stoned.

Guess ya had to be there.

exactly, see it in a group, with a little alcohol involved, that will at least make it enjoyable. Otherwise, it is a complete bore...

but Erin and I still find ourselves walking around going [napoleon]tina! come get some ham![/napoleon]

(You forgot) LOOOOOOVE John Malkovich......
