Happily N'ever After
Wasn't actually that bad. Kind of stupid, but it's still a good family movie.
8/10

Charlotte's Web
Very well done. Very witty and charming. Made my bro and mom cry and I almost cried. It was very good. But IMO, they tried too hard to make it funny and not a lot of it followed the book. It had it's moments, but the comedy wasn't as good as I thought it would be. Other than the fact that they somewhat misfollowed the book and it had some bad comedic moments, it was very well done.
9/10

Happy Feet
For the 3rd time. lol. It's really lovely, funny, cute, charming, etc. One of the best movies I've seen in a while. Made me dance and sing along in the theatre. haha. Just can't get enough of it. lol.
10/10

The Pursuit Of Happyness - Amazing film! I just had to cry at the end, the performance by Will and the son was very good and it is inspiring to me since I was always feeling depressed, it showed me that even how poor you are, you still can make your dreams come true. 9.5/10

The Warriors(1979) - Even though its a old film, still a good gang related movie about a gang trying to survive the tough streets after being framed. 9/10

Erm... Charlotte's Web, maybe?

Yeah. lol. That's what I mean. I was listening to them at the same time I was posting it. lol.

Haha, understandable.

Saw Pan's Labyrinth on Friday night. It was very good. It was a little more depressing than I expected, and less magical, but it was still excellent. The story was almost similar to a dark 'The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe,' now that I think about it. Comparing it to 'Hellboy,' which I love, I'd say it was a better film, but I'd probably still enjoy 'Hellboy' more, mostly just because I prefer movies that are happier and more pleasing to the eyes. I'll probably get it on DVD when it comes out.

Watched Cars for the 54th time. lol. It's a great movie.

^I've watched it on iTunes three times since I bought it a week ago

Dear Frankie - Meh, good show I guess, just kinda sad and slow.

Fearless - GREAT show! The fights = WOW...

I saw Night at the Museum the other day... it was good; maybe 8/10

I watched Die Hard last night. I'd seen it before, but I forgot most of the plot, so it was like seeing it for the first time, again. Yay

Before that I saw Song of the Exile and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon for my Hong Kong Cinema class. And Shadow of the Vampire.

Apocalypto... yessss

^What did you think of Apocolypto??

Slow start but it gets very good. Incredibly bloody. The end chase bit goes on a bit too long as well, but its still a good film. Worth seeing!

I watched two things yesterday...
Equilibrium - kind of a "Fahrenheit 451" world, but with more guns and action; amazing movie (ever seen gun fencing?)
V for Vendetta - great although not as awesome as the graphic novel; one of my favorite movies

Night at the Museum - entertaining enough but it could have used a few more laughs here and there. Shame there weren't any outtakes shown. Hopefully, they'll include them with the DVD release. 6.5/10

Back to the Future Part III - always liked this one, certainly better than Part II, but not as good as the original. 7/10

Watched a few others lately, but none seem to stick in my mind.

Matrix-ish dystopia marathon?

I actually just got V for Vendetta on DVD for only a few dollars. Probably because it's the Canadian edition. It's a pretty good film though.

Anyways, I recently saw Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Forbidden Planet, and Made in Hong Kong. Next up is prolly Little Miss Sunshine, Letters from Iwo Jima, and whatever we watch in Hong Kong Cinema on Friday. Plus one of four other possibilities. Who knows what could happen.

man equilibrium is such a badass movie.

i just watched the return of the king, lol.

@Xcoaster: Equilibrium is better than the Matrix (the actually good one)

The Hills Have Eyes
