i like Human League's 1980 remake of 'Nightclubbing'. stupid me, I didn't realize it was originally an Iggy Pop song until i read this article. the Human League version is a bit more danceable.

I'd guess most people in Asia don't know much about the (mostly American) mall Santa tradition, except for what they've seen in other American movies. it wouldn't be funny to see a santa acting bad because they don't have a reference for how santa's are supposed to act.
many people's definition of "comedy" is a bit off. if you aren't smiling /laughing for most of the movie, it ain't a comedy. Most modern movie "comedies" don't succeed at being comedies. Studios think adding poop jokes and comedic actors to will make any script a comedy. I watched 'Hot Tub Time Machine' the other…
he lost me at "three-hour". sorry, as intriguing as this story sounds, i tend to avoid watching movies that require 2 or 3 sittings to get through (at home), and you couldn't pay me to sit in a theater for 3 hours straight. how can people do that? are there intermissions? i start getting restless/uncomfortable…
'Turn to You'. if only because its one of the few later Go-Go's tunes where Belinda really lets go vocally. and the guitars are louder than they needed to be, which is a good thing. it rocked.
Pajama Party isn't as good as it could've been, but Buster Keaton is genuinely funny in it, and Bobbie Shaw as Helga (who only says one thing the entire movie) is way sexy. Well worth seeing just for the blink-and-you'll-miss-it wtf moment when Keaton buries his face in her boobs.
i saw it a few weeks back on netflix. very entertaining on a number of levels. everything about it seems a little strange, like if aliens were to make an imitation of a 60's teen musical comedy. Not really a beach movie though- no waves or surfboards.
they should have put gorgeous Bobbie Shaw in the lead (instead of the bit part as witch doctor Buster Keaton's assistant). that would have made the movie more interesting. she was so amazing in 'Pajama Party'.
saw 'In Bruges' on Blu-Ray. odd little movie. Bruges makes a good backdrop for a movie, with its nice scenery. and i thought the girl who played Colin Farrell's Belgian girlfriend was pretty. but other than a few interesting scenes, the movie didn't do much for me.
if that was my house…
i'd redo the outside so it looks exactly like it did in Vertigo, get that same 50's car Jimmy Stewart drove in the movie and park it out front, and buy a life size wax sculpture of Stewart and put it in the living room in front of the window.
i liked Scoop too. it has Woody Allen playing a likable character for a change, and Scarlet Johansen looking cute throughout. very lightweight, but it worked for me.
fun fact: Dustin Hoffman is about the same age now as Anne Bancroft was when she died 6 years ago.
how about instead of making the American Pie movie, they just have hundreds of pretty young women lifting up their tops, one after another, for 90 minutes? i'd totally see that if it was in 3D.
$100,000,000? seriously?
that is big-budget Uncharted/Call of Duty kind of money. unless the Beyonce game involved her being a projected 3D hologram and giving virtual lapdances to players, i can't imagine how a game like this would ever cost more than a few million dollars to produce, or make anywhere near $10 mil…
i got a large cash prize.
you see, i never bought any of those movies on DVD, so I still have all that extra money in my wallet.
Great Escape is okay for an old action film, but its not something i'd go out of my way to see or lie about having seen it.
i'll admit i've never seen Godfather in its entirety. and i've never seen part 2 or 3 at all. i'm just not a big fan of mafia movies in general and i don't like Marlon Brando in particular and refuse to sit through any of his movies. so sue me.
i seriously wish i could have that $7.95 back i spent on a used cd version of 'Batman' back in '89 or '90. Money not well spent. but i happened to also buy a used cassette of 'Around the World in a Day' at the same time, and that got lots of play in my car stereo for many years, so i guess it evens out. other than…
used tampon
'Play it Again Sam' is my favorite early Woody Allen. yeah i know someone else directed it, but everything about it still screams "Woody Allen movie". in many ways it seems like the prequel to Annie Hall.
