So, Winter's Bone, any plans to see it?

I'm still on the fence.

I pulled myself away from the Kleenexes to ramble about some crappy movie about toys I saw or whatever

I saw Winter's Bone today. The tone is pretty tense and uncomfortable (in a good way). I don't share any common ground in my background with the protagonist, but I adopted her family and its problems as my own without ever being conscious of it.

It's a good palette cleanser if you're getting burned out on traditional summer fare.

District 9, good? Boooooooooooo! The only time I enjoyed a part of the film was when the alien threw the protagonist down his secret hatchway.

Nice review of D, Mora--I'll have to keep reading your archives.

I don't understand why we shouldn't welcome a breath of stylistic fresh air like District 9, especially when it was so well-crafted.

I fart on about Predators a little.

Re: Grump Factory: My "New" Blog

Just wasn't my bag, art direction and style were fine--I just found it really boring, and the main character I didn't care for either way.

Hey, who wants to read my bad movie reviews that I don't even get paid for?!

This one's on Inception.

Been looking forward to this, now I want to go see it even more.
