Chronicles of Narnia - better than I expected. Faithful to the book and fairly well acted.

I have a soft spot for Gilmore Girls, for a chick-flick/tv show its really well written, witty, and packed full of pop culture/music references. And not too overdramatic.

But last night, i got...

PINKY AND THE BRAIN
YES PINKY AND THE BRAIN
ONE IS A GENIOUS
THE OTHER'S INSANE!

Little Buddha. I was surprised--I knew that Chris Isaac was in it, and I knew that his kid was supposed to be a modern reincarnation of Siddhartha, but I had no idea that most of the movie was actually an overview of the tale of Siddhartha. Keanu Reeves was downright hot as the Enlightened One.

I think this line's mostly filler.

Bottom. Consistently amusing, and repulsively endearing characters. A few laugh-out-loud moments.

Syriana. Didn't like it.

The Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars Motion Picture. One of the best shows that has ever been put on, as well as Ziggy's final hours.

The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou
I liked this a lot but will not recommend it to anyone because it isn't going to work for most. Seu Jorge is really amusing repeatedly singing Ziggy Stardust pieces in Portugese while accompanying himself on the acoustic. If you grew up on Jacque Crosteau and want to mock it a little this movie may work.

I used to mock Jacques Cousteau on a regular basis, but lovingly, as I was and am a major fan.

I watched "Silent Running" with Bruce Dern on Saturday. The 70's were so very innocent, in a twisted and bizarre way.

Spent the weekend with a rock rolled up against the cave door.

Finished watching Oz, Season 6.

Howl's Moving Castle (very cool!)

Fantastic Four (better than expected, got the Thing's Existential Angst pretty well)

Bewitched (can I have this two hours of my life back please)

Dark Water (not very horrifying horror film, too predictable, no scenes that cause you to jump or shriek)

I'm into Scrubs, 24, and Prison Break - all on DVD 'cause that's the only way I ever get to watch a TV Series.
As for movies...i haven't seen a movie in a loooooooooooooong time.
I like crazy jacked up movies, like Donnie Darko, Requiem for a Dream, The Butterfly Effect. Or, movies that make me think like Crash, and Big Fish. Other than that, anything that's scary or funny...

[edit] for The Boondock Saints. That movie rocks!! I watched it like 6 times in 3 days when I bought it.
