Watched the movie Rocket Science last night. I had never heard of it and grabbed it on a whim. I guess it came out on HBO sometime last year. It also had the kid who played West on Heroes in it, only he could actually act in this.

Regardless, I thought it was a fantastic movie. I can't believe it went completely under my radar.

It was a indie movie that didnt get a wide release yet. I saw it at a screening last year and didn't like it much. It had potential but it was like a 'Little Miss Sunshine' meets 'Napoleon Dynamite' and they don't really click. I guess it's a decent movie if you're into coming-of-age stories.

polishmike, you seem to see a lot of films, and from what i can gather read up on them too. have you got an industry related job or just a cinephile?

I don't work in the industry but few members of my family do, I just see a lot of movies and they come up in conversations very often.

Watched a bunch of stuff over the weekend:

Sweeney Todd, actually I watched this twice. I thought it was fucking fantastic and now all the songs are bouncing around in my head at basically all times. TRY PIRELLI'S MIRACLE ELIXIR.

Bring it On IV - In it To Win It: I watched this with some buddies and made fun of it the whole time. We were bored. Admittedly, the "goth" girl in this movie is so hot it makes me angry.

Sexual Parasite: Killer Pussy - Some ridiculous Japanese pornohorror (horrorporno?) about a parasite that transmits itself via the vagina. Includes fishing lures on strings as "larva." Watched this without subtitles, but I don't think it really mattered. It was hilarious though.

Rambo: What the fuck. Written, Directed by, Starring Sylvester Stallone. The writing was pretty laughable, and it made me sad to see the girlfriend from Dexter act so incredibly poorly. Obviously it delivered in terms of giant explosions and gratuitous violence, so I really have no complaints other than it being, well, Rambo.

I also caught Beetlejuice on TV when I woke up hungover Saturday morning, which was pretty stellar.

Oh, and Nip/Tuck continues to deliver in the crazy shit department. The end of the episode blew me away.
