Last King of Scotland

Great performance by Forrest Whittaker, intriguing story and the bonus of a small role from Gillian Anderson:) . But why must we have a white protagonist in a story about Africa? Same thing as in Blood Diamond...it just makes it all feel so phony. But Kerry Washington, the actress playing one of Amin's wives, Kay is so stunning that she makes up for it.

6.9/10

Scream - 8/10

half of Scream 2 (my VHS was all screwy) - 7/10

Scream 3 - 8/10

The Faculty - 9/10
not only does this movie rock, but it has a good soundtrack, Zeke is hot, and i love the car. when i get a car that is what it will be, this was decided in second grade.

i watched all of these movies last night because i was bored and wasn't allowed on the internet cause my douche of a stepdad wanted to sleep downstairs cause it was too fucking hot upstairs. so i watched movies all night, i ended up dozing off sometime during the Faculty, waking up at various odd times. so now i'm running on like 4 hours of sleep, which for me isn't good cause i get extremely cranky without at least 8 hours of sleep. this is just another example of how stupid i am when i get really, really, really bored. however, i did manage to get some laundry done.

American Psycho- 7/10

Good acting/story/gore when present, but it's really over hyped.

Anchorman: The legend of Ron Burgandy. I love this movie. Brick is the greatest stupid character in history.
"I killed a guy. I stabbed him in the heart with a trident." :)


Half of fight club. Its amazing. I still love it, but what i thought was deep and intrguing about Tyker Durden when I was 26 I now think is makes him a small minded prick at 31.

Stranger Than Fiction

What a jewel of a movie!
I had no idea this would turn out to be such a charming little film.
Will Ferrel is an actual actor in this, I had my doubts after seeing his string of comedies....


5 STARS:)

Black X-mas (remake)- 6/10

It was better than I expected it to be actually. It isn't *good* by any means, but the kills are fantastic, and the acting is overrall acceptable. The gore is really good, it's worth a view for the gore alone. It isn't scary or anything, but this is worth at least a rent. The thing is... it's not like the original... meaning the killer. It's weird, you'll see. It actually makes decent sense at times, but overrall is random. It's ok for a mindless slasher gore fest though.
