Has Sam Rockwell ever had a poor performance? The guy is amazing.

The entire Criterion collection is streaming free on Hulu this weekend.

Saw Amour last night. Jesus [expletive] Christ why would you make a movie like that? I mean the acting was phenomenal, the story was intriguing, but god damn I just wanted to jump in front of a train after I watched it. What the [expletive]? [expletive]' French. They made that god damned Diving Bell and the Butterfly [expletive] too. Same morbid [expletive] theme.

Flight is really really good.

Once again Denzel delivers. But then again, i havent seen that goddamn train movie and simply refuse to.

I agree. I loved that movie.

Just saw a commercial for "Oz the Great and Powerful". James Franco is playing the Wizard in this one, but it has the land of china people, an element from the Baum "Wizard of Oz" that the movie omits.

The only way I will go see that Oz movie is if, in the first week or so it's out, someone comes up to me and says "Hey, here is the most amazing marijuana and/or psychadelic mushrooms you've ever injested, and I'll give you some, on the house, just because you're awesome!"

In other cash-cow Hollywood flick opinions, I'm only somewhat embarrassed to say that I already want to see the new terrible GI Joe movie, because it has Bruce Willis and the The Rock gleefully chewing up a movie about kid's toys.

The Art of Flight is amazing. Whether you give a [expletive] about snowboarding or not, the cinematography and locations are mindblowing. The best boarding stuff is in AK and Jackson Hole, but they "chase winter" south all the way to the Darwin range in Patagonia which is otherworldly. It's streaming on netflix, and it's probably the best thing on there along with The Trip.

Speaking of netflix, I just started watching House of Cards. So far it's really good.

The Vanishing streaming on Hulu Plus. Really good sort of psych drama thriller horror flick.

13 Moons is a very, very weird movie.

I like it.

The cast includes Jennifer Beals, Elizabeth Bracco, Steve Buscemi, Peter Dinklage, Karyn Parsons (from the Fresh Prince of Bel Air), Pruitt Taylor Vince (the guy from Identity), and Sam Rockwell.

Not that I know that many illustrators, but I think this guy is my favorite. Movie/comic fans ought to dig it:
