28 Weeks Later

I'm scarred for life, seriously, that was just gruesome. It's a very good sequel, something I had not expected. I really like the first one, so I was not pleased to learn that they were making another one as I feared it would take away from the original.
This film can easily stand alone though, and it builds on an interesting idea; repopulation after a zombie infistation. Of course this goes the way one would suspect and the horror comences.
It is a very cool horror film, and it's been ages since I've been this freaked out by a film. Not for the weak at heart.

Follow the Stars Home

A bit fractioned, and unfocused at times. But it's a very sweet story. One of those typical Hallmark kind of Sunday movies that's meant to have people reaching for the tissues.
It's a cute film, but I'm sure I'll have forgotten all about it in a few weeks.

4: Rise of the Silver Surfer

Like the one before I didn't expect much going into the theatre to see this, as it was a sequel to a pretty simple film I figured the formula would be pretty thin by now. However, this film was actually better than I expected. Yes, it's simple and plays on the action and humor the same way the first one did. It's another fun popcorn movie. It doesn't deal with major issues or try to be thought provocing, it's entertainment. And I was entertained.

Rocky

I was very pleasantly suprised by this one. Up until now I've put off seing it as I couldn't imagine that a boxing movie featuring Sylvester Stallone could be very good. Turned out I was wrong, I actually enjoyed thois film quite a bit. The only thing that I really didn't like was that Rocky ended pretty much every sentence with 'you know?', which is a bit annoying in the long run.
All in all a cool movie, and well worth the stamp of a classic.

Æon Flux

That was just a big mess wasn't it.
I had at least expected some cool action sequenses, but what little there was of those got overshadowed by the insane storyline and backstory on which it was built. The most positive thing I can say about this film is that I liked Charlize Theron's hair.

Blades of Glory

What can I say, I'm easily amused. This movie was silly and totally over the top, but I couldn't stop laughing. It was crazy.
I don't think it's a movie I'll be that eager to recommend to people, but if you're in for a movie full of sillyness then that's what you'll get with this one.

The Simpsons Movie

This was just like watching a very long episode of the series. And not one of the better episodes either. Pulling the entire story of the movie away from Springfield in this way was a bad choice as far as I'm concerned. Loved characters barely made an appearance while others stayed past their welcome.
I was not impressed, but I guess it boils down to if you were a fan of the early Bart-oriented years or the later Homer-oriented years. I personally miss the old days.
The film is okay if you're in the mood for a long episode of The Simpsons, personally I'd rather pick out three episodes I enjoy and watch those.

The Dresden Files, season 1

I got throught this pretty quickly. Quality wise I would have thought it was a 90s show if I didn't know any better, The pacing is a bit messed up and I'm not the concerned about all of the characters.
The recurring vampire woman, Bianca, was annoying, mainly because Joanne Kelly butchered the role.
As the season progressed I found that my fave character was probably Bob as he seemed to feel like I did about the world in which these stories take place.
The show has made me curious about the books, as I've heard they're much better, but I'm not sure if I'll bother with the second season, if it gets one, of this series or not.

 

Toy Story & Toy Story 2

Toy Story.
After hearing so much about this film, I grabbed the chance to watch it when the chance arose. It was very sweet, and I was even entertained. It is a bit simple, but it is a kiddie movie, and the first CGI-movie if I'm not mistaken, so good job.

Toy Story 2.
After seing the first I had to see the second one as well. I actually found this one to be an improvement upon the first, with a tighter story and a better pace. I was more involved in what was going on this time around.

 

Supernatural - 302 - The Kids Are Alright

• I feel like a freak, but the opening kill was awesome. I was so stunned, I did not see it ending that way. I wonder what the original cut of it was like since they got to show this.
• Sam in the beginning trying to lie about the phonecall, lol, that was so lame it was awesome. Calling out for pizza when he's in a restaurant, oh Sammy. He could just have said he was checking in with Bobby about the demon activity... but that wouldn't have been as funny.
• I can't help it but horny-Dean both amuses me and embarrases me to no end. And come on Dean, she had balloons tied to her fence in the driveway, what did you think was going on?
• The women talking about Lisa's desctiption of Dean was just too funny. And then their simple attempts at 'come hither' looks just slayed me. Poor Dean seemed so freaked.
• Haha, and then another freak out when he meets Ben and does the math. Lol, the look on his face as he counts the years and then stumbles over the trash can was pure gold.
• So Ruby's back. She is a bit high and mighty, but considering what happens later it makes a lot of sense.
• That little girl was damn freaky. Seriously! Kids can be so insanely creepy. Episodes like this freak me out a hell of a lot more than most other creatures.
• Ï loved the scene where Dean tells Ben how to beat up the bully. That was priceless. I can just see young-Dean attacking bullies in the same way. We need another flash-back episode dammit!
• I get why Lisa was pissed at Dean for encouraging Ben to fight though, but it made for a great scene, the look on Dean's face when he's been busted is just to good.
