I had a period of watching every Freddie Prinze, Jr. movie I could get my grubby hands on. <EM>She's All That</EM> is all that and more.Christopher Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01554187670721026135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15691896.post-42840067226813420512009-01-07T10:44:00.000-08:002009-01-07T10:44:00.000-08:00Ooookay, so it's a "no" on Solaris and Straw Dogs....Ooookay, so it's a "no" on <I>Solaris</I> and <I>Straw Dogs</I>. Crowdsourcing, FTW!<BR/><BR/>And sorry, Chris, I sort of like B.Aff. It's totally and completely illogical, but there it is. And I think <I>Primer</I> is in my queue. If it isn't, it will be shortly.<BR/><BR/>Jason, I looked that book up on Amazon and it definitely seems like my cuppa. Unfortunately, it's not available at either of my normal librarious haunts. I will keep my eyeballs peeled, though.Dylan Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15550687762896316858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15691896.post-14085231094568728672009-01-07T10:05:00.000-08:002009-01-07T10:05:00.000-08:00don't have a library card because as a lad i never...don't have a library card because as a lad i never returned a copy of garfiled volume whatever so i've never been back since.<BR/><BR/>luckily my wife has a library card and i mooch off of her.<BR/><BR/>last book i read from there was titled AWESOME by Jack Pendarvis.<BR/><BR/>you might like it. a critic quote on the back cover calls it a quirky combo of Philip K. Dick and Charles Bukowski!<BR/><BR/>it's about a brilliant derby wearing giant named Mr. Awesome and his robot ward Jimmy. and that's all you need to know. the rest needs to be read to be believed...Jason Quinoneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11324204128133025864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15691896.post-65534963485811167912009-01-07T09:07:00.000-08:002009-01-07T09:07:00.000-08:00Holy Crap.

I've seen them all. <BR/><BR/>Watch for the Christ references in <I>Paycheck</I> (it's Woo, whatdya expect). <BR/><BR/>I did not finish <I>Melinda</I>. I'm sure it just went over my head (not). That's the only Woody Allen movie I've turned off. <BR/><BR/><I>Solaris</I>. No, Dylan, No. <I>Please, think of the children, consider the lillies.</I><BR/><BR/>I agree with Christopher about <I>Primer</I>. It's the headiest, best sci-fi movie I may have ever seen. I couldn't talk for a day and 2/3 hours. <BR/><BR/>Yay <I>Masked and Anonymous</I>! <BR/><BR/><I>There Will Be Blood</I>.. Classic P.T.A. man. Classic Daniel Day Lewis. He's the only actor I really like that overacts everything but doesn't come off like Pacino from <I>Scarface</I> on. <BR/><BR/><I>1408</I>? Cusak makes a King movie better than anyone else. Watching this one won't kill you. Plus I think Sammy Jackson's in it.<BR/><BR/><I>Straw Dogs</I> = eyemuffs, earmuffs, possibly not suitable for anyone who isn't watching it for pure critical reasons.-https://www.blogger.com/profile/16065629845969834028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15691896.post-51291892949767258242009-01-07T05:51:00.000-08:002009-01-07T05:51:00.000-08:00Don't do it!

It's an hour and a half of George Clooney brooding and mooning (in more ways than one - I've seen far more bare Clooney flank than I care too). We have the original Tarkovsky version which is much better, Clooney butt free and 70 minutes longer. You can't go wrong.<BR/><BR/>Also, Paycheck is so bad it may as well have had Ben Affleck and Aaron Eckhart in it. Oh, they're in it? That explains it. Remember <A HREF="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0298814/" REL="nofollow">The Core</A>? Remember <A HREF="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000255/" REL="nofollow">anything Affleck has been in</A>? Sci-fi + those two = steaming pile.
