    Black Sheep, Heavens this movie started out as an almost stupid enough idea to be funny, it had a few funny moments, but in the end it just sucked. Icky, stupid and gory. Hoo-boy.

    Friends With Money, Another humdrum drama about midlife crisis'.

    Carlito's Way. A very enjoyable movie with Al Pacino.

    Ocean's Eleven. I always enjoy this movie! Never saw any sequels, I just love this flick. Shame about Bernie Mac dying.

    Two Hayao Miyazaki's movies, "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind" and "Princess Mononoke".

    Roger Ebert's #1 film of the 90's... Hoop Dreams. I'd always wanted to see it and I finally saw that it was available to watch online for a limited time (legally too!), so I did. Really hits home to me, even if I don't relate too well.

    Death Train. Has Pierce Brosnan playing a UN macho guy and Christopher Lee as a bad guy. It's not great, but is enjoyable.

    Not the last movie I watched, but I forgot to put Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence in here a while back. Takeshi Kitano is a wonderful, wonderful actor. Is it wrong to say that this movie'd get extra levels of interpretation as both David Bowie and Ryuichi Sakamoto are musicians?

    I finally watched Episode III, of SW. Not as AWFUL as the first two prequels. But still not great. I still can't accept the major plot... inconsistancy, to me, of hiding Luke, to protect him, where Anakin's mother died and got buried. Like Vader would NEVER even look there? :rolleyes:

    Dragonlance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight

    Someone needs to do a Kiefer Surtherland soundset for BG2 with bad ass 24 clips and then the sudden nerdy "I am preparing my spells" line from this movie.

    Hellboy 2 . Maybe the story wasn't as tight as it could have been but you gotta love Hellboy. He rocks.

    "An Inconvenient Truth". He has some valid points, but how many people are going to listen? Could it be that He invented the Internet for something other than porn?

    I have two major gripes with the movie. First, whenever he tries to give the scientific explanation it becomes painfully obvious he's reciting a memorized text someone has written for him and has absolutely no idea what he's talking about. Second, the movie, as a movie, as atrocious. Filming someone giving a lecture, even if he's a very good speaker, does not make for the most watchable movie unless the director is very good, something that's really not apparent. Considering Gore is not a good speaker to begin with, all the movie's left with are some valid points.

    36 Quai des Orfèvres with Daniel Auteuil and Gérard Depardieu. Not bad, not bad at all...
    Dead Ringers by David Cronenberg and two of his early works Stereo and Crimes of the Future, which were just...uhh...well, there's a long distance between these two earlies and let's say Scanners for instance...and lightyears between them and A History of Violence

    Star Wars - Clone Wars.

    I liked it actually. Its not a traditional Sw movie, but it certainly gave me the SW feeling when I watched it. Some lame stuff here and there, though, but overall it was ALOT better than ep 1 and 2. Meaning it was completely Jar-Jar free.

    James Bond License to Kill. Had to watch the last Timothy Dalton. Is my favourite, it's just so good.
