Quote from Mr B: "The best parts of this film were the parts that were unintentionally funny such as: Peter walking down the street snapping his fingers." For some reason, I just imagine him doing that to the Stayin' Alive bythe Beegees. I have no idea why

He didn't have it in the second film also. There's rumors that The Lizard will be used in the fourth film. Hopefully they won't ruin him like Venom.

Spidemo-Man 3
About halfway through, I found myself asking, "What happened to my Spider-man movie? I was watching a Spider-man movie, where did it go?" There were also about 50 pelvic thrusts too many. A little bit later I was thisclose to start singing "crawling in my skin" at the top of my lungs.
All in all, it was entertaining, but it was not *good*.
Fun rating: 4 emo pelvic thrusts out of 5. Quality rating: 2 stars visible from Manhattan out of 5.

Wait, "you do" need to see his junk, as in all the time?  Perv. Nix: Best bit when I saw it was when Peter Parker shouted "Marko!" and some guy in the audience shouted "Polo!" There were many lols.

A I know I'm late with this but my favourite line in this movie that had me nearly rolling in the aisle was.... "Does anyone have any antibacterial wipes, I got burnt dick on my hands...." I was quoting this for weeks afterwards, much to my (ex) girlfriends dismay heh

Plane DeadAka, Zombies On A Plane, muthafucka!  Haha, awfully good, it's pretty damn similar to Snakes On A Plane, but it hasn't got Sam Jackson, it's got dumb zombies and gunfights and explosions. There are some funny bits, and the zombies look cool, but the acting and plot is pretty bad. C-

Mind you, you must've been sitting next to me, cause i said it quietly so only my girlfriend heard. Spider Folk the thirdLAaaaame. I enjoyed it a bit, but there were way to many, "omg i can't believe they just did that" moments. To you american's that "Land-on-a-truck-with-the-america-flag-flapping-behind-me" bit might have been patriotic, but to me LAAAAAAME! And Stan Lee's "Cameo" in this one. LAAAAAAME! (I wish i could use Nix's jumbo writing.) Although i do think peter parker was the coolest and best evAr when he was emo. Awesome dancing, loves cookies, and he hits MJ!!! that was so cool! <3 violence against women? Australia may so no, but spidey says YES! 28 Weeks laterGod Bless those americans! Helping out by repopulating Ingerland. But goddamn those kids! It's all your fault! It was a great film, just a shame you can't get attached to any of the characters. Carpet bombing was cool, as was all the snipers. Why did the dad seem to have a personal vendetta against his family? And how does hiding round a corner stop you from getting firebombed? Now i know where Michael went from Lost!!! WAAALT!! So we are to believe the heli crashed in France and the little boy made out with someone? Or he made out with his sister or the pilot and they went batshit insane? Heh, love the fast running zombies.

Le Dîner de Cons "The Dinner Game"
It's a French film that I watched in (get this) French class. It's really funny. The humor is very good; it's so good that I laughed at the motions and tone. We had subtitles, yet it was still very good.
It gets the Weiner Seal of Approval™ and a A-. Yes, it was better than Spider-man 3.

I just came back from Pirates as well. I might have missed the first few minutes if there was a cold opening, because due to circumstances beyond my control, I walked into the theater just as the title came on screen. *throws broken alarm clock out the window* Anyway, I agree with SJM about the dragging, but I thought it picked up a bit (a lot) in the second half of the movie. I loved the ending; it didn't catch me off guard exactly, but by that point I had no idea how they were going to conclude everything until they actually concluded everything. I was satisfied with the movie as a whole: it was fun and enjoyable, and I'd probably go see it again just to catch everything that I missed this time around. The multiple Jacks really confused me, hilarious as they were: they made sense in the Locker (what with Jack's hallucinations and all), but once they started cropping up in the "real world," I couldn't figure out why. Are they just some sort of mental scar from his time in the Locker, or are they just meant to be a part of his quirky personality?
Also, Keith Richards as Captain Teague = WIN
And stay for the post-credits ending if you were dissatisfied at all by the "Will and Elizabeth can only see each other every 10 years now" concept.... I think the only thing that really bothered me about the ending is that they (predictably) left it open for another sequel. I'd like to think of it as leaving the potential for certain characters' future adventures out there, but I suspect they had movie #4 in mind.

Pirates Of The Caribbean 3I saw this film on Friday and I thought it was really good. lots of action and adventure. Also lots of comedy from Johhy Depp and he is really hot. The little monkey is cute too. The best part of the movie is: Jack’s hallucination, "Nobody move, I’ve dropped my brain" and the little monkey

Having seen Pirates 2 and been disappointed, I was pleasantly surprised by Pirates 3. Rush and Depp are awesome. The piratingest pirates ever. Depp's drunken idiotic pirate is funny two sequels in, and Rush's evil, greedy, scheming pirate is like the Inner Captain in all of us - the person we all wish we were (or possibly just me). The plot made less sense than Pirates 2, but that's easily forgiven. Both the splintering of the Endeavour, and the moment when the powder magazine ignites and blows her to matchwood were worth waiting for. Keira Knightly has no redeeming qualities beyond her minxy little body, which I would like to do depraved things to - she lets the film down spectacularly because she just can't pull off "feisty heroine" quite as well as "enraged yet helpless token female". Ol' tentacle face has a few spectacular moments, and one or two (one orr two, maybe?) spectacularly bad ones as well. Monsters don't have feelings, damnit! Throughout the film, I was wanting Jack to succeed. Willing him to succeed. It seemed to be the only way. Of course, the way it turned out was just as fitting. If there's a fourth, I'll watch it. I'm not sure that it'll be any good if they decide to leave Rush and Depp out of it though.

Funny TNUK considering I also just got back from watching it. I'm not sure if I was disappointed or happy. Cause there were highs and lows about the film that throw me off. What I really didn't get: The Calisto thing. I mean...she grew really big and then turned into crabs or whatever. Then there was a whirlpool...and that was about it. I kept waiting for a big monster like the Cracken to come out. Never happened. And the whole love-fling with Davy Jones was cheesy. That's when I decided the movie was fucked up with too much weirdness.
The ending made me sad. Poor Will and Elizabeth. Their story was confusing too. But hell, the whole movie confused me, I only paid attention to the dialouge when I could understand them. Jack Sparrow was awesome as always. My favorite bit: [On the discussion about how uncreative Pirates are when it comes to naming things.]Jack: I once knew a man who had lost his arm and two legs as well as one eye. Gibbs: And what did you call him? Jack: I called him...Larry. Also for those going to see it, stay for after the credits for a look into the future. I makes sense once you watch it. And it gives you hope for reasons explained in the movie. If there's a 4th I'll see it. B+

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's EndFirst, may I say "wow"? ... Okay, WOW! After watching Emo-man 3, I wasn't expecting too much greatness from this film. I was wrong. This film exceeded my expectations. It had the perfect blend of action, adventure, fantasy, and comedy. I must, though, that, towards the middle of the film, I was a little confused by all the alliances and backstabbing. But, otherwise, this was an excellent film. I would pay for another ticket to sit through all 3 hours of it again... unlike Cutter-man 3. And, if they decide to make a fourth film, they should go with the Fountain of Youth plotline, or perhaps some Classical sea mythology. I wouldn't mind them trying at Atlantis or Charybdis. But, if they do do a fourth film, they shouldn't have Will or Elizabeth as major characters, or even in the film at all. It should be between Jack and Barbossa. The Fountain of Youth plotline could work well with Jack/Barbossa/some other character. I just feel that the Will/Elizabeth story is over, but Jack and Barbossa aren't done yet. So, for my grade, I give it... AGo see it... now... seriously, stop reading this and go and see it...

I must agree with the CGI Davy Jones. It such good CGI that I thought it was prosthetic make-up. ILM gets an A++, but that's degraded to an A+ because of Jar Jar Binks.
So here goes my movie review log for 2007 thus far... Pirates 3- A Meet the Robinsons- B+ Spider-man 3- B
Is it bad that I thought that Meet the Robinsons was better than Spider-man 3?

Paprika
Oh, Satoshi Kon. Why won't you leave my brain alone? Paprika, the free-spirited and adorable dream-jumping detective is the Alter-Ego of psychological researcher Atsuko. A member of her team, incredibly obese and child-like research partner, Tokita has developed a major breakthrough: the DC mini, a device that makes dream-diving possible.
Suddenly, members of the research team begin blabbering about impossible visions. Their dreams have crossed into their waking states, and someone is responsible for this dream-terrorism. In order to save their research and their own sanity, Atsuko, and her team join with Paprika and a hard-nosed cop to hunt down the perpetrator.
time for the Satoshi Kon anti-reality meter:

Yes, with this film Satoshi Kon outdid himself. Dreams and reality are boundlessly merged in a brilliant film. Visuals are every bit as imaginative as Miyasaki's "Spirited Away" But the film carries a much deeper resonance about human nature, desire dreams and reality. This film is not for the un-analytical. Bizarre, beautiful and a great time.
A+
