    Child's Play. Awesome stuff. I did not know Prince Humperdink was the investigator. I realized that dolls get creepier as you get older. When you're little they're cute and cuddly, but once you're an adult they're just creepy. Chucky solidified that. My kid is never getting a doll.

      Just saw Whip It.

      Pretty good movie, a bit generic at times - but still a funny, entertaining movie. And go figure, Jimmy Fallon wasn't extremely annoying in it - perhaps a first for him.

        watched the original cut of Paranormal Activity tonight. Liked it better than the version in theaters (wish i could see the third ending, but no one but one particular screening has).

          recent movies in the last 1-2 weeks that I had not watched before:

          Wall-E- AMAZING. Probably my favourite animated movie ever and one of my top 10 all-time.

          Monsters vs Aliens- Mediocre with a lot of lousy writing. Felt like the dialogue was partly written by either teenage girls and/or some college fratboys. A shame since the story/characters were good as was the voice acting. Seth Rogen was especially great with his character who had mainly funny lines.

          Drag Me To Hell- enjoyed this and felt it was a good movie. Nice to see Raimi back in the genre.

          Bolt- felt this was a really good movie and one of the better animation movies in years.

          Gran Torino- a lot of Clint's lines and the banter between him and the barber were very funny but overall this movie was not much above average. Bad acting and a predictable storyline.

          Coraline- a solid movie with great stop motion animation.


          Tonight I am thinking I may watch Transformers 2.

            Have you seen Up? It might have you change your mind.

                  We'll have to agree to disagree. Wall-E was great and I owned it for a while. Still thought Up was better...but not by that much.

                  I'd take Monsters Inc. over Wall-E as well.

                    Last King of Scotland - A movie that I've wanted to see for a long time. I thought Forrest Whitaker was awesome. Well done flick.

                      Gone Baby Gone-Loved it. Loved the main actor and his Boston accent added a lot to the feel of the movie being set in Boston and all, and also other characters had the Boston accent as well. Really added to the immersion of the movie. There were a lot of twists I wasn't expecting, and every time I thought the movie was going to end something else happened. 8/10.

                        Couples Retreat Really liked it. Went with friends and had a great time. Could be that we went to the theater that let us take beer in :wink:, but we really enjoyed the movie.

                          Just watched Slumdog Millionaire. Had the movie for months from Netflix and finally got around to it. Very good movie, but hugely over hyped, I'd have to say. I really enjoyed it, but at the end I was left thinking "That's it? That's what won the Oscar?"

                            Watched the blu ray version of Snakes on a Plane. Solid transfer. It's a decent B-movie action thriller. What can be better than CGI snakes on a muther*&$%@! plane?

                              Paranormal Activity: Just finish watching it, now i hear there it originally came out back in 07, but they decided to change the ending.

                              About the actual movie, pretty interesting movie. It worked really well because of the the hand camera style. The acting was good. I hated the boy friend though, really in a situation like that, would anyone really go out seeking to bother "it?"

                                I just watched I Am Legend again. I don't get why a lot of people hate that movie. It seems like any time it's on TV I've gotta watch it.
