Watched "Up in the Air" last night. Enjoyable movie and good performance by Clooney. Probably not for everyone, but I liked it.
"Event Horizon". It originally was in theaters in 1997. It stars the guy from Jurassic Park and Lawrence Fishburne. It makes you believe its going to be a sci-fi/space movie, what it ends up being is a disturbing horror movie. Some of the imagery is really gruesome and just...sick. This movie totally took me by surprise. Its definitely worth watching if youre a fan of the horror genre.
Alice in Wonderland -- The use of 3D was nice, the cast was great, and the art direction was quite beautiful, but... can't give it anything better (or worse) than a hearty "meh." Just, meh.
I think I gotta see this Kick-***. Though I'll probably just buy it when it comes out. There was a review in one of the alt-weeklies that appeared to be a negative review but the whole time I was thinking "Hey, this sounds cool".
Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call - New Orleans. OMG, what a very strange movie. In fact, it was so strange that I couldn't even finish watching the movie.
Well, everyone is entitled to their opinion. I do like Nicholas Cage's movie, however, I thought the movie was totally boring.Really? I absolutely loved that movie.. Easily one of Nicolas Cage's best performance to date.
Picked up Avatar today but didn't get to watch it. Supposed to be the new standard of excellence for Blu-Rays.
I normally do that too and am holding off on LotR but I think the 3D release is actually going to be a 3rd release next year so I figured I'd get this and then see what comes down (and also whether or not 3D projectors are practical when I upgrade my system next year).I am waiting until the November (?) release that will have all the extras and possibly a director's cut and the 3D version on it.
Same reason I haven't bought Lord of the Rings - I want the extended cuts not the theatrical release.

It's April, dude. I'm too impatient to wait until November. I'll have it this afternoon.
Is the copy in the original aspect ratio? Apparently Cameron decided to open up the Blu-Ray (and DVD I presume) to fill a 16:9 screen for the current release. So that screener may actually have some value for purists (that is if you can get past the constant reminders that its a screener and not to copy itYeah, but I saw it twice in the theater (once 3D, one not) and a friend has an "academy awards" copy I can watch if need be.![]()
