Friends took me to the midnight premiere of Prometheus as a birthday gift
aaaaaaaaaaaaa
some parts were almost unwatchable but I enjoyed it
also they were giving away free posters like they tend to do at midnight premieres and I grabbed two, one for me and one for my brother, so that's awesome
Watched Brave today. A pretty good film that hits close to home for me.
The included short is also really good!
But oh my gosh I'm glad I almost never watch things in theaters; all those really stupid commercials and trailers and other things before the movie starts were SO DAMN HORRIBLE.

I watched Brave today too! Story was a little cliché, but other than that it was fantastic. The short was really great too.

Inception. The more times I watch it the more it doesn't work.
Going into a dream in a dream wouldn't make you go deeper, you'd just be having a dream that your dreaming.
+ ignoring that, how come when the van goes in free-fall, the people in the next level float, but the people after that level, in the snow place, are just fine?
The van breaking the barrier causes an avalanche, and each "layer" is more effected by the last apparently so how does that work?

It doesn't. I think the logic was pretty weak in some bits and the factors the creators were relying on most were Leonardo Dicaprio's presence and explosions.

You really shouldn't question the logical aspects of Inception's plot. Nothing to gain there. I don't think it even has only one single point that makes sense.
However, I enjoyed it.

V for Vendetta. Reading the comic now.

Prepare to learn why he took his name out of the film's credits - realise he was over-reacting and may be a bit of a dick.
Also Iron Man - god damn love this film, shame the sequel was kinda lame...
MIB 3 again. Having seen it for a second time has confirmed it: there are some serious problems with the time travel in that movie. I mean, Back to the Future had a few snags but the general story worked. This, however, has really got some stuff out of place.
When J asks why he's the only one who remembers K, that dude gives the vaguest explanation ever. "You were there." I mean, at the end of the movie you can speculate a few possibilities, but there's no pure explanation of why. And don't go telling me that him meeting K as a kid explains it: that is by no means any reason why he should remember K.
But hey, this isn't really a time travel movie anyway. That is, it's more about the aliens and all that, and the time travel was just a feature, it wasn't meant as the crux of the story (unlike BTTF). So no big deal.

Magic Mike. You know, it's surprisingly deep and well written for a movie about male strippers.
Ted The Movie, you're either going to love it or hate it, especially due to it being a Seth Macfarlane film, and I loved it, eyeh.

He is not a word anymore

Alan Moore, you know the guy who wrote the comic. Man he hates that film.
Quote:[The movie] has been "turned into a Bush-era parable by people too timid to set a political satire in their own country.... It's a thwarted and frustrated and largely impotent American liberal fantasy of someone with American liberal values standing up against a state run by neoconservatives — which is not what the comic V for Vendetta was about. It was about fascism, it was about anarchy, it was about England
+ Watched The Pianist, which really should be watched by everyone. Should be a film people have to watch at school.

I don't blame the filmmakers at all for the changes; each one made it better as a movie. Same deal with replacing the alien squid in Watchmen.
I think it's nifty to look at all the little nods it makes to the novels, though.
So, anyway, on topic:
Every single one of you needs to watch The Raid: Redemption RIGHT FUCKING NOW.
