It is a really strange film, but I like it quite a lot. Found it better than most French horror flicks that are well done, but a bit overrated.

An intelligent film which not only succeeds at pure and natural entertainment but also as a commentary on entertainment itself. Just like a certain 1941 Preston Sturges movie, the revelation of the power of laughter (especially in its superiority over terror) is a theme both maturely complex and innocently simplistic. Backed by a superb voice cast and an elite direction team, the film also serves as an incredible milestone in animation; hair waves, eyes water, bodies move rhythmically with breath. And best of all, the film ends on what is probably Pixar's most touching final note- a sweet and gentle sigh of kindness.
One of my favorites:)

My last seen was 28 Weeks Later. I'm pretty behind, I know. But luckily I signed up for Netflix last month (and am open to any suggestions).
I thought it was done well, I mean, I almost vomited once or twice, but still. I don't know why I have trouble with gore now, I never did before. Maybe I'm getting old:rolleyes:
Anyway. It seemed like it's going into a trilogy....?

Tonight I watched the 1973 Hammer Horror move "The Rites of Dracula" also known as the "The Satanic Rites of Dracula".

The Deer Hunter,
screw all the other 'Nam movies, this one is the ultimate. The first russian roulette scenes were the most intense portrayal of Vietnam I have ever seen on film. intensely powerful movie.

City Of Men
pretty lame when compared to City Of God, didn't sit through the whole thing.

Slumdog Millionaire
damn good movie, however didn't quite live up to all the hype.

Heat
saw it a long time ago, I didn't follow it, I was really too young to catch on, watching it again was a really good idea, because its freakin' awesome, what a cast.

Amazing film, definitely, but I've always found Apocalypse Now to be much more powerful and disturbing personally. The intensity and portrayal of complete chaos and insanity in Apocalypse just always stays with me. There are few movies that actually frighten me, but just thinking of what it must have been like in that situation, on the river in the heart of Vietnam, is really terrifying.
