What? That is one of the crappiest movies ever, and I LIKE strange artsy movies. It is right up there along with "bloken frowers" in the topten of over-hyped meaningless movies sans-plot!

Sorry! I got carried away ;)

I only saw Weee! films this year (according to the Guns terminology). I was flat out at Simpsons The Movie! They had me in stiches from

Actually I did. And I really like it. Maybe I've forgotten how good he is in it, but I still felt like that was an Adam Sandler performance. I forgot it during this one. To a degree.

PTA isn't for everyone, I can understand hating him. I don't think I could buy liking Magnolia and not liking Punch Drunk Love though.

I just saw Stardust on Friday night, and I've gotta say that it was the best movie I've seen in years. I don't recall enjoying a film that much since I was a kid.

I wanted to see Stardust but missed it. I suppose I'll have to rent it when I get the chance.

I finally saw stardust. it was really good. Better than Event Horizon, and that's saying something.

However...the best movies i saw all year were: Juno (2nd) and There Will be Blood! TWBB was the best movie I'd seen in YEARS.
