Saw a few movies since I last posted...
Pirates of the Carribean 2- 7/10 A bit of a dissappointment. WAAAAAAAAAAY too long. The tacked on ending was stupid too. I enjoyed myself, but a bit of a let-down.
Clerks II- 10/10 A BRILLIANT sequel to Clerks. The first is one of my favorite movies, and probably the reason I want to become a filmmaker, so this one had some high expectations going in, but it really delivered. I thought the movie was hilarious throughout, and I LOVED the ending. I can now say that the View Askewniverse is fine being over. (Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back would have been such a down ending, nevermind the pun)
Lady in the Water- 8/10 Unlike all the critics, I liked this movie. Shyamalan-a-ding-dong did a pretty good job. I really liked a lot about this movie. Not the best thing ever and a slight dissappointment, but this is a worthy edition to his filmography.
I may see Monster House sometime. It looks like a fun movie. Next week, A Scanner Darkly opens wide and Miami Vice also opens, so that's a nice weekend at the movies right there.
Also, finished a book called...
Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman- 10/10 A fantastic book that I wanted to read again almost immediately after I finished it. Gaiman is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors, after this and Stardust and American Gods, and Anansi Boys. Plus his comic work. I swear the man can do no wrong. Check his stuff out if you haven't already. Here's his website: http://www.neilgaiman.com He has a great blog on there with some really cool stuff.
And for now, I bid you farewell.
