American Graffiti

Saw American Graffiti: oddly depressing. But then most nostalgia-trips are.

Window to Paris

Saw Window to Paris. It was nuts. Dream sequences, pied piper-ing, dancing whore-clowns. I thought it would be a simple story of the magic of Paris, but boy was I wrong. I think it's a romance at heart, but a very strange one.

Demolition Man

Saw Demolition Man. It was stupid-interesting. According to a review I read, the dystopian future-society may have been Hollywood in the 90s. Interesting thought, no evidence. Oh well.

Child's Play

Saw Child's Play. Hard to be scared by something that could be stopped by a Rubbermaid tub and a heavy book.

The Exorcist

The Exorcist may be the perfect horror movie. Demonic possession aside, what more do you need than sudden mysterious sickness?

Braveheart

Saw Braaaaveheeeeeeart I wish they'd left all the gore in and cut all the shots of that gay guy being dumb instead.

A Better Tomorrow

Saw A Better Tomorrow. It did this very neat thing where before each cut, it would slow down or freeze for just a frame or two. It was interesting, but I don't know if it was intentional or an encoding problem. Has anyone else seen this? Confirm/deny?

The Avengers

Saw The Avengers. It was good. I hadn't really liked the other super-hero movies I'd seen, but this one I liked. Also, I have a random dislike for Joss Whedon which this movie cured. Damn, can that man avoid a cliche.
