JCVD
Andy Walker just showed me the trailer for JCVD, which will soon be out on Netflix. This movie looks really cool. Makes me kinda wish I still had a Netflix account.
I kinda already knew I was gonna love the movie. The new ending wasn’t necessarily better, but I think the real ending would’ve ended up looking kind of silly and random. It made more sense.
Other than that, it was pretty much exactly what I expected it to be – the comic put on film. Lots of cool fight scenes & explosions and awesome Rorshach voiceover monologue.
I really liked the fight scenes, mostly for their brevity. I’m so sick of matrix-style back & forth where they destroy half a city block but nobody seems to actually get hurt.
I’ve been super pumped about The Watchmen ever since I saw the trailer sometime last year. I had never heard of it, but I could tell that this was gonna be cool.
Lately, I’ve been reading every article about the movie that I can find, and I quickly figured out that this won’t be a movie worth seeing if I haven’t read the comic. Having finished the comic last night, I can confirm this.
I can’t wait for the movie, but all I’m expecting from it is eye candy & cool Rorschach monologues. Also, I’m looking forward to learning how to pronounce Rorschach.
Spiderman 3 really sucks.
I know that by now anyone who was ever planning on seeing this movie already has, and that nobody reads this blog, but considering how much I liked the first two movies, I just feel the need to get this in writing.
Spiderman 3 is awful. Just awful.
Edit: I made this post when the movie was about 90% over. But I didn’t realize that it just keeps getting worse. I just saw the scene where Peter asks for Harry’s help. It’s just… so bad. So bad!
Edit 2: Good lord. The bad guys are dead. For all intents & purposes, this movie is over. But it’s still getting worse.
I love reading The Onion, but I think Onion News Network isn’t very funny. The headlines are funny, but the actual storytelling is just boring. Although to be fair, a lot of people say the same thing about all Onion stories.
I thought this headline was hilarious, but the video was incredibly meh.
