just got done watching 'lady in the water'.. interesting flick. I actually liked it.. although I am not all that much of a fanof m.night.shamalama(it's a twist!)-ding-dong, it was cool seeing a fairy tale done without the schmaltz that usually accompany them on film.

I've been watching Season 1 of Arrested Development. I never caught the show while it was on-air. It's too bad it was canceled because it's some of the funniest writing I've heard, and the entire cast delivers it brilliantly. I can't wait to get Season 2.

That's why it was canceled.

I loved that show.

I've been watching some Stargate that I peerflixed. The episode where Baal tortures O'Neil is pretty good.

A friend of mine and I traded DVD sets: she lent me The Sandbaggers in exchange for the first 2-and-a-half seasons of (the new) Battlestar Galactica. So far I'm thinking she got the better deal, but I'm going to keep watching and see if I get a little more into it.

Although his storytelling relies rather too heavily on the single surprise twist thing, his visual style is incredibly good...best since Hitchcock, IMHO.

Watched Goldfinger last night.
Again.
Wanted to see if Pussy Galore's implied straightness irritated me quite so much as it used to.
It did.
She's GAY, okay?
Sexy aeroplane gun running mama with her own harem of hotties.
And she throws it all away after watching Bond sleep in a plane.
Sheesh.

Regardless of the 'all a lesbian needs is a good man' overtones, Goldfinger is still the best Bond movie, by far.

I'm in utter agreement with you, Ibram.
And I have deep sentimental fondness for Dr No.

I have just watched Tom Hanks in Ladykillers for the second time. Tom does a great job, but the obscene language used by (mostly) the black actor who is part of Tom's team, gets in the way of being able to truly enjoy the movie. Does anyone else think that the language is over the top? It is a shame, because if you can ignore the bad language, it is quite a funny film.
