prime - 3/5 green street hooligans - 3/5 elizabeth town - 1/5 - ouch. really bad. orlando bloom should not put on an american accent.
dog days - 2/5 - it was a bit heavy. my friend and i ended adopting characters and reading the subtitles out loud. just to survive some of those characters. dark deep and brooding. i might have enjoyed it under different circumstances, but overall i just wished the film to end. so far i've not seen any german films which i've liked. super generalization: the french make nice films. i've seen some really good latin american ones too.
some old movie with peter sellers and a long forgotten british colony - 3/5
xmen 3- 3/5 the witches - 3/5 the dark - 1/5 - what the fuck happened here?

Never say never (a good VG film). I'm still a fan of the original MK film, and looking forward to the awesome sequel.
I'll never forget Dennis Hopper and the crew in the Mario film for making my fantasy world crumble into shizoid techno-industrial dystopia.
This makes me want to revisit some VG adapation classics!:
Mortal Kombat - 4/5 Mortal Kombat: Annihilation - 1/5 (oh boy what went wrong) Street Fighter: The Movie - 2/5 Doom - 2/5 Tomb Raider - 3/5 Tomb Raider 2 - 2/5 Resident Evil - 3/5 (close to being 4/5) Resident Evil 2 - 3/5 Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within - 3/5 Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children - 5/5!
Am I missing something? Oh... OH...
Wing Commander - 0/5 Super Mario Bros - 0/5 Dungeons & Dragons - 0/5
Alone In The Dark is supposedly disastrous too. Silent Hill I anticipate enjoying, in fact.
Apparently Paul W.S. Anderson is making a Castlevania film next. Can't-fucking-wait - for my dreams to die in his hands.

It was sooo bad. I wanted to get up and leave but we we were sitting in the middle of a cramped theatre, far from the aisle. so i sat it out. so bad.

war of the worlds - 3/5
great special effects, some bits had great acting, but the ending was typical hollywood bullshit. theres no way in hell the son survived. I was positive that the family reunion would be a dream sequence. if you haven't seen this yet, dont read the previous sentence, it had spoilers.

at last i found one more troma movie:
classic Toxic Avenger - 5/5. that part where a tent stands in the grass, then camera slowly backs off and we see that two battle tanks and some troops are all aimed at this tent is very fun.

Today, some Asian films....
* The Great Yokai War (aka. The Big Spook War) - 10/10
Miike has created a perfect mix of the absurd and the fantastical; of the child-like and the sinister... Such a fabulous film. After the mediocre Zebraman (another film aimed at younger audiences), I'm glad to see Miike in shape!
* Fudoh: The New Generation - 8½/10
Another violent, funny and sexy film from Miike.
* Waterboys 8½/10 * Swing Girls 7/10
These two films by Shinobu Yaguchi are charming teen comedies, but Waterboys is definitely the better of the two.
* Takeshis' 9/10
Takeshi Kitano's latest film is supposedly the last in his streak of nearly ten yakuza/art pieces. It took me three viewings to really appreciate the fractal complexity of this beautiful piece of art, which truly encapsulates everything he's done, but which is maybe too introverted and masturbatory for a wider audience.

Everything about that film, The Wicker Man, suggests it was made by extraterrestrial forces aligned with Christopher Lee and the crew to deliver an otherworldly experience of love and beauty. The soundtrack works so well too.

I can definitely wait for it. Who was scrambling for a new Wicker Man, anyway? The first one holds up like gangbusters. Hopefully they totally reimagine the material a la Dawn of the Dead, don't just rehash the story of Howie.

return to paradise- 3/5 *SPOILER* wow this film started off interesting, then spent way too much time in new york with the dyke anne heche contacting and argueing with that vauhn guy about 7 times in the spand of an hour, but when he finally goes back help his friend leaf pheonix, at which this scene really got to me.
that scene being when the malay prision guards are draging leaf from his cel to be hanged, and 5 seconds before he is about to be hanged vince vauhn is staring from his cell repeatedly saying to leaf "I AM HERE LEWIS, YOU ARE NOT ALNONE"-WHILST both friends have their eyes on each other, then leaf just hangs.
really good movie, the middle is boring and slow, but the end and start of very very amazing.
4/5 for start 2/5-for middle 5/5 for end
