A few films recently watched.

coffy - pam grier blaxploitation - pure unfiltered shit.

the social network - really good. totally engrossing, well acted, managed to make what could have been a really tired, boring story entertaining. i liked the score as well. probably my favorite fincher movie.

Robin Hood (2010) - Not very good, at all...just...fuck me.

don't know how to feel about this yet, i thought (or maybe i misread) that the movie was going to have a large native american cast. I am really looking forward to seeing the Coen's take on this universe but i dont see any injuns in the trailer

That's 'cause John Wayne and John Ford killeded them all.

can someone recommend a good scary/suspenseful movie, released this year or last?

All That Heaven Allows - Love me some Sirk.

Monkey Shines

An experiment in fear

/10

Monsters 0/10

not sure why I even bothered

let me in - i didn't like the original. this was better. the main kid wasn't an unrelatable serial killer in the making and the film overall was just higher quality. i can't really say anything else. its all due to a higher budget, not talent or creativity on the part of anyone working on the movie. i still think this concept sucks a dick.

The movie would have been better without that annoying narration. Kate Winslet

I didn't like the original either, do they show any of the good stuff or is it all cut-aways again?

there's a newer, longer trailer for this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVi5J8Vzk5g

i don't know about this. the tone of the first trailer implies a no country for old men style project, something somber. but the book is this weird comic western. i wonder if they'll go that route. the second trailer has me a little worried. the coens are so hit or miss with me, and more often they miss.
