Can we please move away from FAT32 filesystems as being the only ones recognized by the PS3 and Xbox 360? How about letting me use ext4 on my external drive???

I saw it this weekend (in 3D) and I'm not surprised by the poor take at all. It was a hot mess of ridiculousness. The kills were neutered (you barely got to see anything happening. I had to double check that it was actually R rated, for what I don't know...). The explanations given for what was going on was weak at best and the ending was anti-climactic. And the Cinematical review was spot on when it said that 3D added nothing to the experience. It felt like it was tacked on last minute just to garner a few more audience members to their take. Obviously that didn't work.

But she isn't a girl at all... I enjoy horror movies in most incarnations. I love thrillers as well as the extreme blood letting movies as well. I personally saw both versions of Let the Right One In/Let Me In and I enjoyed the American version more, it was tighter than the drawn out Swedish version (though I did miss the scene where all the cats attacked... it was hilarious). But I do agree that horror should get away from the remakes for a while, it's getting a little out of hand. I also wish to watch original, well told stories with a satisfying ending. I'm sick of horror movies that fall off the rails in the 3rd act and end with something stupid (I'm looking at you Last Exorcism...) I will be seeing Case 39, I Spit on Your Grave, Hatchet 2, My Soul to Take 3D, Paranormal Activity 2 and Saw 3D though probably not all in the theater. Hatchet 2 and I Spit on Your Grave aren't even going to play anywhere near me in SLC, UT. I do love my horror movies though...

The original (Le diner de cons aka The Dinner Game) was hilarious, I hope they don't taint my memory of one of my favorite french comedies. I love both Carell and Rudd as comedians so I'm not really worried about what they will bring to the table. I am worried about the script though.

It's going to be difficult, difficult, lemon difficult.

I really enjoyed it. It doesn't deserve to win best picture or anything like that, but it is definitely worth a watch (and it looks pretty damn good on blu-ray).

I actually liked the movie. Sure it had it's faults, but what film doesn't? And yes, it was not what I was expecting but I enjoyed it anyway. It will never stand up to Terminator 2 in my book, but worth a few watches anyway.

I watch all my foreign movies by myself since none of my friends enjoy reading subtitles. Screw them, they're missing out.

Too be honest, the Uninvited follows the same twist as the original did 6 years ago. It's not like it was created just for the remake. I loved the original film and thought that the remake did a pretty good job of updating the title. Critics complain about the dad's wooden performance, but if you've seen the original, you know that's how the dad acted in that one too.

Fire Justin McElroy!
