I enjoyed the pure blood and rampage during some parts, but i didn't go into it expecting anything, I thought it was worth the watch, I left enjoying it...

I enjoyed it a LOT, very similar to Bourne movies, tons of action with a decent story. Made me think about what really happened.

I liked Green Zone too, but didn't really get that "Bourne" sense from it. It was MUCH more thought provoking and dramatic than action oriented.

I finally saw Gran Torino, and I was REALLY impressed. It was MUCH better than I was expecting.

I finally saw the Hangover. HISTERICAL! Zak Galifiwhatshisface was KILLING me.

And in prep for MUCH later this year when Tron Legacy comes out, I watched the original Tron this weekend. It held up SURPRISINGLY well. (For what it is.)

I'm incredibly pumped for Tron Legacy as well. Meet idea?

I saw Repo Men last night. The plot has many similarities to Equilibrium with a feeling reminiscent to Blade Runner. Pretty good overall, but nothing groundbreaking.

Since we never go to the movies...

We just watched Avatar and realized Mr. Cameron just spent a shit ton of money remaking Fern Gully...I can totally see why he lost.

We also watched Sherlock Holmes, liked that one quite a bit.

They're okay, I haven't read the books or anything.

S.H. wasn't what I was expecting, but I enjoyed it.
