So I did see Karate Kid finally

Three things I noticed while watching it.

Jaden Smith is a clone of Will Smith. How he moves, speaks, looks, his mannerisms. They all reminded me of Will Smith.

Jackie Chan can actually do a serious roll. There were some nuances to his character that were interesting and he pulled off well. I admit I was surprised. They really only had one action scene for him to do, everything else was him acting. I wasn't expecting it.

This was the loosest use of the word remake I have ever seen. Names were different, setting was different. Only thing that was the same was a kid was picked on till a master of martial arts saved him and teaches him to defend himself and then they go to a tournament.

I wasn't expecting Drag me to hell to be scary. Just a splatstick Raimi movie which is why I enjoyed in.

Regarding karate kid. I would love to see a sequel to the new karate kid and have Ralph Machio be the evil dojo master for the Cobra Kai.

Actually the 3D in TS3 was really good. Day & Night in particular was great in 3D.

Something I don't like in this current batch of horror movies is the gratuitous animal torture. It just doesn't seem necessary.

What a shitty twist.

I talked to my friend that had seen it and bluffed so it'd seem like I did, like "oh that movie where blah blah blah but REALLY blah blah blah." She said "Yeah!"

Stupid. And I wanted to see it.

There were a lot of little technical incongruities and historical inaccuracies (talking about what the North Koreans did during the war, for example, when the movie was set in the very early fifties) that just wore on me.

For the first 45 minutes or so, I felt like I was watching people reading a script. I mean, I could picture the script on the page as they were saying the lines; it seemed a little flat and contrived.

Also, I didn't think the twist was that big of a twist. Not long into it, it was sort of "ohhhh, okayyyy."

It's a bummer because I dig Scorsese something fierce. I even really like the Departed, which seemed to polarize a lot of people.

I hadn't known that it was a Scorsese film going into it, and I remember being surprised that it came out of him. I was like, "Scorsese? Really?!?"

I just watched Shutter Island. I like it. The end was a kind of a bummer but I still liked it.

Also watched The Book of Eli. Denzel kicked a lot of ass. Oldman as awesome as usual.

Watched 'The Spirit' last night, found myself wondering wtf was I thinking putting this on the queue. If you haven't seen it yet don't bother, there is plenty of hotness to go around (Scarlet Johansson, Eva Mendes, Jamie King)

I went to Karate Kid and spent most of it wandering back and forth from The A Team.

Neither of them were that bad, actually.

Today was the first time in almost a month that I had time to watch a movie.
So I made it count, and watched two awesome classic 80s monster movies: The Boogens; and The Dark Power.

I got "Precious" in the mail but haven't watched it yet. I get the gist of it.

My streaming netflix queue is full of kickass documentaries but I never get a chance to watch them

Book Of Eli

Meh. The action sequences and the Falloutesque scenery were outstanding, but the story itself was kinda lame. I liked The Road better.

I got roped into watching The Wolfman. A few interesting parts interspersed in a matrix of boring crap.
