Re: Last movie you watched
Watchmen - I did not read the graphic novels, but I completely understood the whole movie, and plot. My friend did as well..... Very, very well done movie! A+
Blindness - it's a tad bit scary for the fact, it could happen. It kinda dragged along for me, nothing great though. C-

Sorry to hear that, but I believe this movie was made for the fans of the graphic novel. Nearly shot for shot, quote for quote and cutting only the unnecessary. It is truly a great adaptation of what I thought to be an almost impossible feat. My only fault was the soundtrack (for the most part), the dewpth wasn't all there, and a couple other nic-naks. I still would have liked to seen the original ending on film, but this one works better for the big screen. Watchmen - 8/10

but isn't the soundtrack exactly the lyrics from the end of each section of the graphic novel?
my buddy is a big fan, and he said at the end of each section, there are lyrics, and those are the songs for each of those...
I was really impressed with My Chemical Romance's cover of Desolation Row

Battlestar Galactica: Razor. Being a big BSG fan, I can't believe I went this long without seeing this. Ties in with what's going on now at the end of the show. 7/10.

There's maybe a couple that are in there. I don't think Boys 2 Men was in the novel as far as I recall... hmm...

Street Fighter : The legend of Chun-li - I fast forwarded after about half-way through. Boring, and pointless origin story.
Another Street Fighter let down.

Typical Oliver Stone film. Nowhere near his best, but pretty solid. Definitely very engaging and interesting. Hated the guy who played Colin Powell though.
This movie is actually sad. It's embarassing to the American public.

Craven wrote and directed the original nearly 40 years ago....and produced this re-make...so he should have nailed it..lol
