Saw Beginners. Pretty much the opposite of Transformers. By that I mean it's boring. The stuff with the father and son was sweet, but the shots of Ewan MacGregor thinking were tedious. It was a good movie, but no one needs to rush out to see it.

Also, Melanie Laurant, which is nice.

I get "Hobo with a Shotgun" in the mail tomorrow. I wonder what it's about.

At the close of WWII, a young nurse tends to a badly-burned plane crash victim. His past is shown in flashbacks, revealing an involvement in a fateful love affair.

My wife was having hockey withdrawals so we watched Slapshot, Youngblood (these were a first for me), and then some girly flick called Ice Castles.

watched a movie called "black death" on instant netflix. i'd never heard of it (not surprising) but it came out in 2010. stars sean bean, main reason i watched it. plus is was also labeled as "historical horror" which sounded interesting to me. basically about religion and the plague back in teh day. not amazing but certainly not bad. 3/5

Yep, it was shot beautifully...the shadows and use of light were awesome...and the story was great too. Welles is awesome.

I've read before that the use of angles was too excessive but that must have been from someone that doesn't like to have fun at the movies.

Welles...greatest screen entrance ever! And I think it's the best film he was ever in, which is saying a lot and isn't intended to take away from his incredible skill as a director.
