We rented it this weekend and Gary let the boy watch it too. I was concerned because he's already not sleeping but I guess it gave him something different to be worried about

I liked it more than I thought I would. I was sad about the dog though

I saw Superhero Movie! and it's hard to believe someone directed this. Had some funny moments - most of them in the trailer but the worst part about it was during the credits the played "cut" scenes which were actually funnier than most of the film. It's like "stay and watch our names and we'll show you all the funny parts we could figure out where to edit into the film."

I hope there is a "unrated" version on DVD. Hmmmmmm....

Watched Halloween and parts of Cars in BluRay at Cherny's and Gn2Dlnd's. Pretty cool indeed.
Halloween is a great film. In the horror genre it's one of the best. The use of suspense in this films is terrific. I like it when horror movies use suspense rather than gore to entertain.

Tired and stuck in my chair, I watched Peter Jackson's "King Kong" again last night. I don't think there was a single scene, fight, gesture, look between characters, pause before speaking, etc., that was not two to three times longer than it needed to be.

The dog thing disturbed me, too. I saw it coming, but ... ::shudder:: Not happy.

I'm just back from seeing "Forbidden Kingdom"

AKA - Jackie Chan and Jet Li do "Lord Of the Rings", Badly.

There were a few fun moments, and the Witch was hot. Overall a definite 1/2 Meh.

I took Moonie Junior who ever since the X-men movies always asks "Is there anything after the credits?"

My reply? Naw, not on this movie, let's go. I was about half way down the exit ramp when it hit me: DOH! This is a Jackie Chan Movie! The guy who pretty much invented the after movie outtakes.

So back into the theater we went, and here is what we saw:

I'm thinking Burt Reynolds, Smokey and the Bandit. Now that there's some good outtaking.

The next Star Trek movie was being filmed in Kern County over the last few weeks. They did some shooting at Fort Tejon and then spent a week out at Buena Vista lakes. It was supposed to be kept hushed, but word did make it out. I heard that Winona Rider is in it.
