In my long absence I have had the time to watch some movies and lots of TV some good some bad but time consuming none the less. Here is a list of what I've been watching.
The Happening : I was really excited to see this movie for 2 reasons. The first being I am a M.Night Shyamalan fan I like all of his movies thus far with the exception of Lady in the Water ( have not seen yet ) I loved signs and thought The Village was awesome. The second reason being this movie was supposed to be a lot different than his norm so I figure how can you go wrong. Now with all that being said this movie sucked big giant stinky elephant balls ! The acting was horrible ! The story would take you one way then another and never go back to tie up the loose ends . I am a huge
Zoey Deschanel fan but this movie was just not her type of movie. Mark Wahlberg should not be allow to play an untough guy. Over all this movie sucked not one bright spot in it at ALL !
SAW V : I was hooked on these movies from the very first one and have been hooked since. There are movies out there that I think the idea is good but the movie is poorly made this isn't one of those movies. This installation is really no different than the others but there is a twist I did not see coming. This is worth the money if you have seen all the previous installments.
88 Minutes : Decent movie but you figure it out mid way through. Al Pacino is one of the greatest actors of the last 2 generations but he is starting to get long in the tooth. I got this as a birthday gift so I can't rag on it to bad it was free. Worth the rental for a movie night. Am I the only one who thinks
Leelee Sobieski looks like
Helen Hunt at age 25 ?
True Blood : This is a new series on HBO about vampires . You can tell HBO is hurting for shows since The Sopranos and The Wire are no longer airing. Basically the show is about how vampires are becoming part of society " mainstreming " and getting the same treatment as their human counterparts. The show focuses on the Louisianna vampire scene in the small town of Bontonne . I don't wanna tell to much cause it would take forever since it's been on for a few weeks now. It's a decent show for a sunday night. The star of the show is
Anna Paquin who gets NAKED AND SHOWS THE GOODS ! So if thats not reason enough to watch then well ........ your gay !
