I watched the movie Red Belt on Saturday. I pretty much had to, since it was George Mamet’s first movie since announcing that he was, and I quote, “No longer a brain-dead liberal.”It was a decent movie. Not the greatest flick ever, but definitely watchable. The main reason that I’m writing about it is that …

Good Day for DVD’s
I loaned my copy of 300 to my parents a few months ago and haven’t seen it since. I finally broke down and bought a new copy–my first blu-ray DVD! I suppose eventually I’ll have to break down and get myself a high defintion TV… but that’s not in the near future. Even cooler (well, …
Iron Man
Well, I saw Iron Man yesterday… and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised! I hadn’t realized that Marvel Comics was producing the movie itself, contracting studios for distribution only.

Well, now they can’t even figure out TIMING. Let’s look at last Halloween. What horror movies came out? I don’t recall any–but ALIENS VS. PREDATOR 2 …
From Neo-Neocon’s Blog
My apologies for the length of the post; I am combining several short replies to items that came in while I was away. This is what I’m getting at – this is either meant seriously, which indicates a really messed-up view of people who disagree with you politically, or its a really bad joke that…well, …
Rest Stop
What a waste of 90 minutes of my life. I mean, I’ve seen worse movies–recently–but really! I have no problem with an “unexplained” monster villain (who is only vaguely a monster) but… some plausibility, please!I knew it was going to be bad as soon as the old man in the RV started spouting off made-up …
