That was a good bit better than I expected it to be.
Watched American Reunion and realized I'd probably have to rewatch American Pie to get all the jokes. It wasn't bad, though.
Get the Gringo was the latest Mel Gibson silliness. You REALLY have to suspend disbelief on this one, but a clown was killed early on, earning it a spot on my favorites list.

Watched Snow White & the Huntsman. Pretty good flick, but Kristen Stewart really killed it for me. She's hot, but she never looks like she wants to be there.

I'm sorry, but that mopey, dumbo-looking actress is about as far on the opposite end of the spectrum of what I'd consider to be "hot" as it comes. The only time I even found her tolerable, both in appearance and in acting, was in Adventureland.

The part that keeps her from truly looking hot is her inability to look happy. Even when she got what she was fighting for, she looked like she was about to piss herself. Everything from the neck down is quite attractive though.

This weekend, we watched...
The Hangover II (funnier than the first I thought)
The Adjustment Bureau (I had a hard time getting past the actors but it was a good flick)
American Psycho (seriously effed up movie, one of those where at the end, I looked at my husband and asked what sane person could come up with a movie like that)
Dune (I believe that I was forced to watch this since I had never seen it before)
Midnight Run (another that I apparently missed out on the first time around and was forced to watch... but this one made me laugh)
(guess who has a free trial to HBO and all the movie channels right now?)

Something awesome.
I have a load of movies to review, but it will require a little more free time. I got some doozies.
Wolverine
Uncanny Pompadour
Wait, which Dune? The movie where Sting gets the knife in the face or the SciFi channel mini-series epic?
The former was a dud (except for where Sting gets the knife in the face) but the latter wasn't all that bad, imho.

Sting got a knife in his face, I think... I kinda got focused on the black hole travel from the strange blobs butt... nor could I get past the boils all over the baron or whoever that was
and yes RG- that Midnight Run... I was cracking up to the point of giggles, hilarious...

Our Idiot Brother...
ummm... don't waste your time... but really, there were parts that made me smile, parts that reminded me of my own family, but for the most part, I kinda just felt like there was no point to this utterly predictable movie... although with a cast like that, I am not surprised we thought it might be funny...

Silent House--Pretty good thriller, made to look like it was filmed in one long shot. At least the Olsen twins have a sister who has turned out to be a good actress (she was in another good thriller, Martha Marcy May Marlene).
Hunger Games turned out to better better than expected. the cornucoppia made me laugh every time I saw the silly thing, as did a few beards, but it wasn't bad.
The Town-Ben Affleck as the bank robber with a heart of gold out for one last job...meh, it was OK.
Fright Night- A remake of the 1985 classic, and inferior in every way, except Evil Ed was much less annoying.
The Snowtown Murders- Who knew serial killers could be so boring? Oh, Australian serial killers.

Yes, I made them watch it...it was not as happy and fun movie as they portray it in the previews...
They wanted something to erase the image of Magic Mike from their minds so they watched Vampire Hunter right after. Apparently, it did the trick.
Going to have our annual Halloween showing of Shaun of the Dead tonight.
Any zombies out there?
