Zombieland-I'm pretty sure when there is a part for a neurotic, shy wimp that somehow gets the smoking hot girl in the end they just call in Jesse Eisenberg and Michael Cera and have them thumb wrestle or something. Other than that this movie was hilarious. Woody Harrelson completely carried it and Bill Murray was good in a minor role. 7/10
I lost it when Woody said Also, protip: Carl Spackler makes an appearance at the very end of the credits, which made me very happy.

Jesse Eisenberg is the version of Michael Cera that I don't want to stab in the face repeatedly with a blunt plastic KFC spork.

This guy did a five-part write-up of Inglourious Basterds that I felt nailed it.

Appaloosa- Was this flick ever in theaters? I'd never heard of it until I watched it yesterday. Ed Harris pulled of a pretty good traditional Western with shades of a film noir potboiler.

Re: Recently viewed movies
It was in theaters in October 2008, but I don't know how long it stayed; I saw it with my grandma. Really interesting twist on the "Man with No Name" motif (normally the hero—named or not—has to do such horrific things to save the town that he isn't fit to live in it when he's done). I thought it dragged a bit at times, but overall, I really enjoyed it. As you'd expect with Ed Harris and Viggo Mortensen, the acting is absolutely top notch.lukethedrifter wrote:Appaloosa- Was this flick ever in theaters?

I'd forgotten that Jeremy Irons was in it too. He sure plays a kickass bad guy.lukethedrifter wrote:I enjoyed it.redbirdjazzz wrote:It was in theaters in October 2008, but I don't know how long it stayed; I saw it with my grandma.

I'm going to watch Stranger Than Fiction for like the 6th time, because it makes me feel warm and cuddly throughout.
Plus, Maggie Gyllenhall is super cute.

i can't stand rene zellwlehrehreger and she almost ruined it for me, but harris and viggo
were great together so i was still entertained.. i just felt they need to make Irons character
way more evil to justify the entire movie's premise.. i don't know
