I REALLY want to see this one... But I am also REALLY skeptical. Looks gorgeous, but seems a little SinCity-wannabe-ish

...

Watched Run Fatboy Run this afternoon.

I LOVE Simon Pegg and Dylan Moran (yay, Black Books!), but even they couldn't save this script. Moran was brilliant, over-the-top, and delightfully crass. Unfortunately, though he was a highlight, the comedy wasn't screwball enough to keep up with his energy.

Not really worth seeing.

2/5

Oh, I almost forgot... Christmas Eve we watched Kung Fu Panda. GORGEOUS animation. Really cute movie. And definitely some laugh-out-loud parts.

Seriously enjoyable. 3/5

Bah- Sin City was inspired by The Spirit.

The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button, not really my kind of movie, but good none the less, not spectacular, but certainly good, some of the best makeup effects Ive ever seen however.

But if the movie version of Sin City hadn't been so successful, there's no chance in hell The Spirit would have been made. At the very least, it wouldn't have been made using the exact same digital technology.

The Dark Knight

My thoughts on this one should be pretty well known by now - this was only my 1st viewing since it left theatres, but it still isn't getting old. Everything about it is nigh on to perfect - especially Heath's Joker, of course.

HAHAHAHAHAHA
