My man + I watched "Yes Man" and were planning to make it a double feature night but bantered about what to watch next for so long that we both got to the point of yawning and said fuck it and turned off the TV.

The Bat (1959) last night. Tonight it's House of Wax (1953).

"House Of Wax" is excellent! Some scenes are truly creepy and Vincent is chilling in his role. I think they must have taken the idea for "Waxworks" ["The House That Dripped Blood"] from this film.

I don't usually watch disaster movies. The CGI was impressive, but overall the movie was boring.

Casablanca. I liked, after a weak start.

And Ali. I ultimately found myself indifferent, after an AWESOME start.

Yeah, but the other two were remarkably awful. Still, it is a pretty decent action flick.

Silence Of The Lambs. Amazing, of course. The filmmaking is truly unique, which I wasn't expecting, and it made me think of the X-Files in several instances. You can tell how much this film has inspired current filmmakers.

Dark Water (the original Japanese version). Subtle, and emotional. My friends just kept crapping themselves over how scary it was, and I think maybe I'm just desensitized since Japanese horror is much more understated. Regardless, very chilling and beautiful mise en scene.

Up stands as a remarkable film, even alongside the already amazing Pixar lineup. It's a movie you just don't see everyday.

Curse Of Frankenstein

Very charming gothic atmosphere, marvelous sets, decent plot with some great lines ("I can stop you using his brain!" "Why? He has no further use for it...") and very good acting: Cushing was wonderfully evil, psychotic and fragile at once, while Lee was both chilling and sympathetic as the monster - managing to do a lot with no dialogue.

Waterworld with Kevin Costner.

I thought it was a good movie, think I buy it, I like post apocalyptic movies.

2012- Very cliche, yet I'm a true blue defender of disaster movies, so I still liked it. I almost cried over a doggy...god that dog was cute.

10 Rillington Place, I always vow never to watch this movie again as it makes me shiver and always end up watching it.

I only ever got to see the start of that! I don't know what happened. I should try to dig it up again... I was digging it.

Caddyshack. I love Rodney Dangerfield in that movie, hilarious!
