This One is Mostly About Movies

Mon, 24 Aug 2009

Still fairly tired from the weekend out so this’ll probably be brief.

Caught the 3D Avatar preview and I gotta say, it was pretty damn awesome. Well worth the hype and I so can’t wait to see it in full at the end of the year.

Also watched Inglourious Basterds and that was most enjoyable for the most of it. Friends definitely liked it more than me, I just wish Mike Myers didn’t have to be in it, or at least wish he had less screen time and a non speaking role.

Other damn fine movies watched this week were Coraline which was gorgeous and wonderfully terrifying, check it out and in 3D if you can. Ip Man was a brilliant martial arts bio-pic, think those kind of films like Walk the Line and Ray, but instead of music, it’s kick-ass baddassery. Also, How to Lose Friends and Alienate People was surprisingly good, but not great… watched some other films as well, but too tired to remember them anymore.

Was hoping to see the first trailer for Christopher Nolan’s new film Inception in front of Inglourious Basterds, but I guess non-US countries or New Zealand at least, doesn’t get that pleasure. Strangely not online yet, but apparently it will in a few days time. Found myself enjoying the simple nothingness of the official website for now.

Right, enough yabbering, gonna check out some of these Real Groovy purchases (still a consumer whore) and then sleep. Night.
