I tried watching Road House 2 and found it too boring to bother with. Maybe it picks up later, but I doubt it. It seemed flawed from the start. It should have been Road House 2: Tinker's Revenge.

While I haven't seen it yet, I'm going to guess that 8MM2 is the superior Schaech-powered sequel.

Avatar looks awful, based on the trailer.  A bunch of hippy jive.  Cool airplanes, though.

It left me feelin' kinda Delgo.

Awful or not, it's going to be this generation's Star Wars. I haven't heard the word "Avatar" without the words "ground-breaking" or "revolutionary" in the same sentence. The nerds have already decided.

Hooray Arsenal!

Meanwhile, I just saw Food, Inc. and there was some footage from Oprah's court case against the Texas Beef Board, but alas not the sound bite that inspired Rock Rot and Rule.

I am going on the record: this will be a huge flop.

I don't know. I have a friend that went to comicon and said that Avatar was the biggest thing there. You are cool Yesno but I'm going to have to take the opposing side on this one. It's a December release, John Cameron, first full digital 3D flick ever, it's going to be huge.

I saw District 9 tonight. 

So disappointing. 

I went in expecting to see something like Aliens or Predator. 

Nope... 

Smeh.

We'll see!  The nerd commenters at io9 seem pretty unimpressed, but it is James Cameron.

James, John, whatever. The movie that I do think will be a flop is Thw Wolfman with Benicio Del Toro.

Wow.  This has been out for a couple of years but I just now saw it and was FLOORED. Best documentary I've seen in a long time.  

If anyone's interested, it can be streamed on Netflix or also viewed here.

I didn't even see that you wrote "John."  It could be that I just hope for humanity that this is a flop.

I just (finally) watched THIS IS ENGLAND.  So good!

After I saw you post this elsewhere, I visited the website and watched the trailer. Wow, indeed! I am definitely watching this on on my weekly Netflix-streaming-eating-solo-party. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

ive been meaning to watch this, red without blue.  it's interesting to see documentaries on twins because my mother is a twin and the dynamic there goes beyond siblings, and at times, marriage.  it's a very interesting thing, the bond between twins.









also, i cant write today...apparently.
