Thor for me was overall a decent film and one of the better comic book adaptations I have seen. Didn't blow me away though, but hey, I'll take good over crap. Now, debating whether to check out Priest

Scream 4... overall the best sequel of the series and a decent time at the movies. Nothing more, nothing less. Wes, you are forgiven for My Soul To Take.

Rewatched the Miami Vice movie. This could have been a real classic. The mood and atmosphere are tops, excellent action scenes, and terrific music and great cast. Too bad the story is too convoluted for its own good.
I bought the DVD cos it looks so great, I love the way it's shot like teh speedboats and the flying scnes, they look great. the dialogue is rotten though.
Yeah aesthetically it's a great film... bad dialogue and confusing plot, needed a lot of tightening up

Repo Men... what a fun flick! Gory and entertaining, just the way I like em'

So DEVIL was actually pretty good. Not mindblowing but I had a good time, like a good Tales from the Crypt episode.

Meeting actors at the Toronto Fan Expo
So I met 5 actors at the Toronto Fan Expo this weekend, figured I'd share my experiences!
William Forsythe: You know, he's just the nicest guy. He immediately shook my hand and asked me where I was from. I asked for a photo to which he said no problem. We briefly chatted about Out For Justice. He explained that he feels that that was his most 'psychotic' role he's ever done, but he had a lot of fun making it. He was very gracious.
Michael Dorn: Worf himself! He wasn't into the whole convention thing at all. I don't blame him either. He wasn't rude or anything, he just looked spent.
Lance Henriksen: Not only is he a fantastic actor, he's also a real gentleman in person. So I talked very briefly about Pumpkinhead and the Alien films. He told me he had a lot of fun making AVP and that Paul Anderson is 'a really good guy'. We quickly took a photo and I left hurried because there was a bit of a line up. But rest assured, Lance is the man.
Bill Moseley: He is nothing like Otis, I'll tell you that much! Bill was humble as hell and seemed very gracious to have so many fans. He told me a little about his Silent Night Deadly Night 3 experience, explaining he thought the movie was ridiculous but the role itself was fun. He even quickly re-enacted Ricky! Surreal. He then quickly spoke about Devil's Rejects as I told him I thought he was brilliant in the film. He explained that Rob was a real pleasure to work with and that it was the hardest and most difficult role he'd ever done, however he was proud because, in his own words, 'the results on screen are pretty dazzling'. He then talked about cardio exercise (random, I know), and then did the usual photo op. Really cool and down to earth.
Heather Langenkamp: She still looks the same! Nightmare is my number one horror film, so this was truly crazy for me. She was a real sweetie. I told her I first saw Nightmare in French in Quebec, to which she asked me to quote some french lines from the film! She asked me what my favorite quote was (oh god I look 20 years old!) and she signed a photo. She was extremely nice, and still looks great.
So that's that my fellow MFCer's, thanks for watching.

I don't think it was 80... but it was 40... still too damn expensive. I think it's 80 for an autograph and a photo.
But he is Captain Kirk and can get away with it apparently.

Top Ten Reasons Why Kick Ass Kicked Ass
1. The casting is spot on. We can all relate to Aaron Johnson. Mark Strong is a terrific bad guy. Nicholas Cage is hilarious. Chloe Moretz... well... I want her to win the Oscar for "BEST FUCKING CHILD ACTRESS EVAAAARRRR"
2. It's the ultimate wish fulfillment fantasy that's been properly brought to the big screen. We all wanted to be a superhero. And this movie shows you what would happen, while never forgetting it's a popcorn flick.
3. Unlike so many action films before it, it doesn't hold back. Not on the violence, not on the shock value. It's gory and Hit Girl swears like a f$&#$@^ sailor.
4. It's almost every genre thrown into one flick, all expertly directed by Matt Vaughn. It's a superhero flick. It's an action flick. It's a teenage comedy. It's torture porn (hate that label but it applies). It's a mob flick. Etc. All perfectly handled.
5. Forget that shaky cam, quick cutting bullshit. The action scenes are expertly staged, thrilling, and all have that pizazz you come to expect from the movies. I dare you not feel thrilled during Hit Girl's rescue of Big Daddy and Kick Ass.
6. So many quotable lines. My personal favorite... "Now switch to... KRYPTONIIIIIIITE!"
7. This movie has made me realize not to lose hope in the film industry. Seriously. In an age of remakes and shit films, nice to see one like this and take a chance on something relatively different.
8. It shows that McLovin has some range, and may not be typecast as McLovin forever now.
9. Look at the response it's gotten from fanboys! Finally, something we can almost all agree on. Kick Ass brings people together. Except for Ebert, apparently.
10. And finally, because it had heart, depth, and soul underneath the silliness and insanity. It's hard not to root for the Kick Ass character.
What's surprising is that as violent and unhinged as it is, the comic it's based on goes even further. Not to mention it doesn't have the same happy ending.
I heard about that. Sometimes you have to take artistic liberties though. I'm glad Kick Ass ended the way it did. I hope a sequel comes out, in the quality of T2 or Aliens of course :)

Kick Ass = Movie Of The Year. Only looking forward to Expendables, Piranha 3D, and Machete now.
Hell that sounds like a good time to me. The tail end of summer is going to rock the hizzle!

The Losers was a disappointment. Love the Dean Morgan, but this movie was lame. Wasted potential.
The ending was just one of many problems in my eyes. Action was totally unsatisfying and Jason Patric's character was just... weird.

Yeah it was an alright movie but the direction was a bit strange...the director used too much style and didn't get us caring about the characters enough.

Borrowed 'Sicko' by Michael Moore... heard nothing but great things... can't wait!
Sicko was pretty good. I didn't like Capitalism: A Love Story at all, though.
I am a butthead! haha love it.
