Juno was a very warm and sweet movie. I really liked it, especially the music. It made me feel good.
Take of them headphones and lay of the black metal for a while guys. See the light!

The whole film was just wrong on so many levels. Jennifer Garner outacted Ellen Paige, for one. JK Simmons played a nice guy. You didn't feel sorry for Michael Bluth.

And sorry to go political, and not meaning to kick anything off, but come on Hollywood, let's see a film where someone actually has an abortion for once, like, y'know, real life.

What's an abortion?

No but seriously, there's no doubt Hollywood is recycling old ideas like there's no tomorrow but I felt Juno stood out from the rest. Can't remember the last time I watch a truly original film.

It was so original especially since it came out a few monthes after Knocked Up.

Dickie Roberts is one of the better movies David Spade has done recently, sadly.

Juno is terrible. It's a perfect example of a movie trying way too goddamn hard to be "quirky" and "indie." It's just obnoxious.

I think it was just a joke. I dunno, I thought it was kind of funny. The movie was really awesome though, IMO.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall - funny movie. i kind of liked the rock star more than the main character though; he was stupid, but at least he was honest.

Human Nature - lovely. the only thing i don't like about this movie is that Gabrielle's motivations for wanting Nathan are never explained. i love how unhappy she looks at the end of it though, didn't notice that the first time.

Elizabeth - actually payed attention to this and liked it a lot more than the first time i saw it.

i've been watching too many movies lately.

Kung Fu Hustle was pretty awesome... unless you mean fantasy-like as dragons and shit, at which I don't really have anything.

Still, watch Kung Fu Hustle... unless you have already.

I saw Yes Man the other day and it surprised me by not entirely sucking

if you're bored and have $8 in your pocket, knock yourself out. I just saw it because I'm in love with Zooey Deschanel.

Seen Stardust? Michelle Pfeiffer as an evil witch, Robert de Niro as a stereotype, Claire Danes acting badly and a Ricky Gervais cameo. What more could anyone ask for?

Not a movie, but I got UFC 1-4 on DVD and holy shit are they brutal. The very first UFC fight is so funny.

A 210 lbs skinny guy taking on a 410 lbs sumo wreslter. The sumo wrestler went to tackle the guy down, slipped and got kicked in the face. They show the replay like 15 times and they emphasize on the guys tooth flying across the screen. HA. After he kicked him he punched him just under the eye, thus cutting him open pretty badly and breaking his hand in the process. The small guy ended up winning and had 2 more fights that same night with a broken hand and a badly cut foot. But of course Royce Gracie won it all by using his usual tactics. Take you down to the ground and choke you out like a snake. His fights get so boring so fast. I was upset when he beat Ken Shamrock. But I knew Gracie won UFC 1, I just didn't to see the Worlds Most Dangerous man lose.

Kite Runner- This was a very good film, although apparently the book is way better, not to mention grimmer. Never read it though...

Cocoon. It was so sweet. Crazy, charming old folks and their alien buddys. Real sweet.

Tadpole - Pyro from X-Men falls in love with Sigourney Weaver, as one would. Nice little low-budget film that doesn't stay around past it's welcome (only about 70 min long).
