Pete's Dragon ..

i had never seen this movie before..

what an annoying piece of shit.
terrible terrible songs,
hellen reddy as a lead actress ???

Elliot the dragons sounds were made by charlie callus ... drove me nuts ..



the animation/real life blending effects were pretty decent for the time .. thats the only positive thing i can say about it ..

hidalgo. i love this movie in spite of it's obvious flaws
it has a little bit of everything

I love Vigo. Aragorn was my favorite character in LOTR
A guy gets impaled
there is reacing and fighting.
Omar Sharif is fun to watch in anything (Anythign i have seen anyway)


Plus, my wife and I saw this in the theater right after watching Dawn of the Dead 04 in the theater. Good Day :)

"Ultraviolet". While a lot better than the last peice of shit "futuristic action/thriller starring random hot bitch" I saw, I was still overall unimpressed, and the storyline started to fall apart at about the half way mark. Nice comicbook feel, but...left me underwhelmed.

Hmmm... Referencing Aeon Flux perhaps?

Idlewild (and i am apparently the only person who actually still goes to the theater to see movies)

it was sort of fun - the rapper guy from Outkast was actually fairly good -the "hey now" guy was very wooden (which was fairly well hidden since his character was an introverted pianist). the movie was fairly cliche and the 'real actors' often looked like they were standing around waiting for their paycheck. . .

it also had a weird way of shifting into modern hip-hop music video mode and then abruptly shifting out

but, the film was not without its charms and some of the music was good. . . if anything the film was made by the little touches (a talking rooster on a flask of whiskey kept me laughing throughout) and some relatively touching moments. . . .i'd give it a B-
