[Phalanx]

Two movies yesterday.

Stranger than fiction - I think this is easily WF's best film...not a whacky kind of comedy, hell I'm not even sure if the overall idea of this film WAS comedy...seemed to steer a lot towards drama, but in a good way. Had this whole melancholy type vibe to it I found, most of the characters seemed to have something missing in their lives, was a bit sad that way. But seriously, very good film...and I loved how it wrapped up, even though the "intended" finish never came to fruition. Great cast, and Hoffman as per usual killed without trying.

Phantasm 4.
So now I've seen them all over a couple months.
1 = good, 2 = better, probably my favourite, 3 = pretty fun and crazy still good even if not as much so as the second.
4...
Boring. Unresolved. I mean the one interesting part (the "past" tall man) wasn't even explored? Lets run away but talk about how it would've been a good idea to "change" him, then never do it?
Reg meets ANOTHER girl, another fucked up girl. sphere tits. wow.
I kind of expected it to pick up when I saw the multiple dimension gates, I saw possibilities to go throughout the timespan of the tallman to at very least get a complete idea of origin, but no...lets just blow a car up...
I'd still buy the box set, but this film is no good.
Here's hoping if the rumoured #5 ever happens they'll work hard to redeem things, and to actually get some kind've resolution.
