Friday the 13th: 4/10

Classic case of the re-make not being as good as the original. It had some boobies, stupid white preppy kids gettin killed, a token black guy, a token asian guy and all around gore.

Another episode of shteinbags making the viewing experience unpleasant. But at least this time the cops came and got their asses outta there.

the post had a classic review of this movie...so on point

Sex Drive   9/10 on the comedy rating.  Great cameo spots, funny as hell, The Judge made me cream my pants

I completed my John Steinbeck movie week by watching The Grapes of Wrath. This one was way better than East of Eden. Peter Fonda was especially good. The last 5 minutes where they try to cram the movie's moral down your throat was basically unwatchable, but the rest was very good.

Proof positive that the movie was faithful to the book.

I guess I shouldn't call it my Steinbeck movie week since I didn't watch Of Mice and Men. MAybe I'll add that one to my queue or something.

Henry. Peter. It's all the same boring 1920s unoriginal bullshtein.

[Rome]

EZ mistake.  Anyone could make it.

Planet B-Boy. Not really the best documentary I've seen but a lot of fun to watch and completely enjoyable.

Madagascar 2 - farg my life for watching that

Burn After Reading - I enjoyed it more than expected. 3/5

I watched Shawshank this weekend for the first time in years. It used to be a movie that I watched every time it was on but I finally saw it too many times and have actively avoided it for about 4 years now.

I sat through the whole thing and was reminded of just how amazing it is. Love that shtein.

shawshank is one of the most overrated and unecessarily jocked movies ever...its an internet message board phenomenon...in fact im convinced if te internet didnt exist it would just be another good movie


saw gran torino yesterday...im gonna give it some time because i feel like i might like it more than i should because i just saw i... but right now i have to say its the best movie of 08...a bleeding heart liberal like myself wet dream...and how did clint eastwood not get nominated for this...go see it


8/10

I thought I remembered you saying some shtein like this before. You are literally the only person I've ever met who doesn't love the movie. Not the only 'internet' person. The only person.

The story is devastating, then uplifting.
The themes apply to everyone's basic fears.
The acting is superb.

What more could you want from a movie?
