I may have to fall on that grenade if someone doesn't step up soon.

oh yeah, i watched "the toxic avenger" last night...that was all kinds of awesome

"The Toxic Avenger" is so awesome, it defines awesomeness.

I watched "Night of the Iguana" over the weekend.

1. Richard Burton rules in that movie.

2. John Huston is such a great director.

3. I really want to bone Ava Gardner circa 1964 after watching that movie.

Just watched it. You're right. Very witty. Ava's boy toys carrying the maracas were annoying as hell at first, then i found them pretty darn funny - so over the top. Ava Gardner ruled too. Was a little disappointed that they didn't bring more heat with Sue Lyon, or Ava Gardner.

i don't remember if i mentioned it or not in this thread (and im too lazy to look it up) but i watched "W" a few weeks ago..i enjoyed it, but i mostly liked the good actors(character actors) that were in this...i thought the impersonations were really good...dreyfuss was great as cheney...and it gave me a different perspective of W for sure...but yeah, overall it was a good/entertaining movie

related ,i watched the hbo movie "recount" last night...it was good/alright ( i gave it 3/5 stars on netflix)...but laura dern was amazing as katherine harris...she stole the movie if you ask me...it was fun/interesting to relive the events of 2000 as i didn't vote in that one (was 17) and i guess wasn't that interested in politics at the time, so i didn't follow it too closely as it was happening back in 2000

Tom Wilkinson/James Baker says hi.

(Dern was great too; I'm just a big Tom Wilkinson fan)

"Our Man in Havana"

Probably the least of the Carol Reed directed - Graham Green stories. But not by much. Excellent work by Alec Guinness, Ernie Kovacs and Burl Ives. Nice pointers

on Maureen OHara.

Its mostly a clever comedy, but a nice tale. Set in the pre-Castro revolution Cuba which is worth the viewing on its own. And done in the Carol Reed artistic style.

up next from Carol Reed - Odd Man Out.

watched "run, ronnie run" starring david cross and bob odenkirk.. i like odenkirk as a writer/performer...cross is kinda hit or miss for me, but i enjoyed this flick...it was better than i expected and had some good jokes...i think it was an hbo movie

So I was lazily watching Speed Racer the other day...not bad for a Saturday afternoon watch.

up next from Carol Reed - Odd Man Out.

Good film. I like it. But don't expect great. At least not Third Man great. This would be a perfect film to stumble across at 2 in the morning knowing nothing about it in advance.
