Clerks 2
ClerksDirected: Kevin Smith Ten years after working in a convenience store, Dante and Randal are now working at a fast-food chain restaurant, still pissing off customers while contemplating their futures. I was wary about this movie ever since I heard that it was being made. I loved the first...
What I’m Listening To…
here’s what I have been listening to a lot lately… Artist: Snow Patrol Album: Eyes Open Release Date: May 9, 2006 Their last album (Final Straw) pretty much covered a relationship going through some rocky times. This one deals with one falling apart in a very messy way. Even...
Lost – Angry Sloth Strikes!
The Cost of Living November 1, 2006 The black smoke monster (or giant angry sloth like I used to think the island monster was) killed Eko. I liked Eko. I’m sad to see him go. I used to be frightened that each time they ventured into the middle of...
The Prestige
The Prestige Directed: Christopher Nolan Two magicians’ friendship turns into a rivalry as one suspects the other of practicing actual magic instead of just the art of illusion. Wow! This is the movie that should have followed Memento. Christopher Nolan followed up Memento with Insomnia, which was a standard...
Just Friends
Just Friends Ryan Reynolds was a fat kid in high school stuck in the friend zone with Amy Smart. Ten years later, he comes back home, a skinnier successful music executive and tries to be more than friends. Jer was watching this on cable when I came home from...
Firecracker
Jimmy comes from an abusive family so he joins the circus when it comes to town. Mike Patton stars. What an annoying, David Lynch-ripoff movie. This movie wasn’t reminiscent of David Lynch, but trying to rip off his direction and even his odd-ass characters. This movie didn’t have...
The Skeleton Key
Kate Hudson is a hospice worker at a plantation in Louisiana where the old house and the guy she is taking care of is spooky. Movies that take place in New Orleans or on any Louisiana plantation that usually involve some kind of voodoo are good spooky movies...
Amazing Race: Temper Temper!
I Wonder If This Is Going to Make My Fingers Pickle October 29, 2006 Maritius So many tempers on this race. I think the only team that kept their cool was the Cho brothers. The models were even snapping at each other on the island and they have been...
A Scanner Darkly
Richard Linklater wrote and directed the story by Philip K. Dick’ s novel about excessive drug use and the government recording everything about everyone. It was shot as a normal film, but each cell was animated for a really trippy look. I have never read a Philip K. Dick story,...
Superman Returns
Superman Returns Superman has been away for five years. Lois is with a new guy and has a five-year-old son. Lex Luthor just got out of prison and he is pissed. I was disappointed by this movie. It was very slow and not everyone gelled together. I love Smallville...
