Ranging from mutilated woman just to make herself look thinner from being fat, to the pedophilia and masturbation contest which the loser gets a spike up his balls for not climaxing.

This is what could've been the whole Final Destination franchise summed up in 26 short films. Think of it as a twisted adult version of Sesame Street's alphabet segments.

Utterly ridiculous, and the worst fucking thing I have seen in my life.

Behind the Candelabra - Liberace seems terrible in a million different ways but also comes off as weirdly likeable. Good gay acting by Damon and Douglas, pretty good movie.

10/10

Sooo much better than the shitty ass 2007 version. I like how they even made Superman weaker aside from Kryptonite it had something to do with
SPOILER: show
his body cells and senses adjusting to the earth's atmosphere and field that gave him a migraine dizziness and headache that made his super senses go haywire automatically and has trouble breathing.


The new Superman doesn't sport a curly hairlock or a nerdy look and we have a hobo 300-ish Spartan Warrior Leonidas style at the start of the movie.

As for General Zod well, we didn't get to hear him say, "KNEEEEEL BEFORE ZOD!" But Faora his hottie Krpyton sidekick bitch ALMOST stole the spotlight from him when it comes to kicking Supes ass all over the place ala Dragonball Z/Injustice Gods Among Us beat em up brawl. Unless you can get used to the usual shaky cams during those scenes. The planet Krypton looks more like a hybrid of the Matrix Machine or better yet, think of the scene in Chronicles of Riddick and Avatar-ish scenery with the flying alien dragons again. There's even a Mass Effect reference where they mentioned one of the stations in Krypton was called, "THE CITADEL!!!" I marked out on that one. And even Superman had a "codex." Still, Snyder delivered this franchise all types of ass kicking and laser blasting that will make your pulse pound faster...

Snyder, I salute you.

P.S. The only thing that's totally missing in this one is the iconic theme from John Williams himself in which the 2007 version used it. Oh well. Who knows. the new theme from Hans Zimmer may take time to grow on me. Meh.



After giving it a listen for awhile now, the piano intro and the rest of this theme almost felt like it belongs in a Mass Effect 3 soundtrack.. It's all too familiar with the depressing piano tones. Beautiful stuff.

A Good Day to Die Hard - 6/10

nowhere near as terrible as made out to be. "Standard action flick" with added John McClane, which means bonus points and retarded grins and "BRUCE" noises from me for the first 10 minutes. Jai Courtney was/is pretty bad tho.

have seen The Place Beyond The Pines, Snitch and Side Effects over the last week or two. Enjoyed all 3. Best "new" things I've seen recently have both been documentaries tho, Richard Pryor: Omit The Logic and the 30 for 30 doc "Survive and Advance" about Jim Valvano/the 1983 NC State national championship team, both of which were outstanding.

Man of Steele-5/10

Immensely disappointing. Wasn't anywhere near the film it could have been.

SPOILER: show
Story was way too rushed. They spent time marketing this as a film that would delve into Clark's emotions as an outcast and someone who, despite being an extraordinary being, was held back to being ordinary by a cautious father who was both scared of what the world would do if they knew his son's true capabilities, but was hopeful that whatever Clark was, wherever he came from, he was there to be something important.

Instead, we only get glimpses of what was an excellent yet short lived performances from Costner going over what essentially amounts to bullet points in Clark's past. These scenes are, far and away more interesting than any other in the entire film. And they are, unfortunately, glossed over as flash backs. They are also the most development Clark gets in the entire film. Adult Clark, unlike, say adult Bruce Wayne, goes through no transition character wise.

For a few scenes, with little dialogue, we see what Clark is up to, then, randomly, he stumbles onto hearing the location of some ship, which ends of being the Fortress of Solitude. He, rather flatly, is told of who he really is, where he came from, and is randomly given the suit and cape from his father's ghost, and bam, he's all of sudden flying around in costume. Literally no build up, whatsoever. It's just "Hey, I infiltrated this Kyptonian space craft the military found, found out who I was, and now I'm geared up, ready to accept my destiny".

Zod could have been a great villian, but he's squandered to not enough dialogue scenes exploring his character and is an otherwise forgettable punching bag for Superman. There's a line before the final bang zoom fight scene that Zod states, and it sums up his character beautifully. Unfortunately, prior to that line, he's not given much time to expand on his feelings and justifications.

And while still on Zod, why in God's name would he be banished to the Phantom Zone when A) everyone including the Council knew Krypton was going to blow, which would B) free Zod and his minions upon doing so. Just poor writing there.

Lois Lane wasn't bad, but again, another character who wasn't given enough time and was seemingly thrust into being in love with Superman for the sake of it. The two characters didn't share much pre disaster screen time for this to work properly.

And man, did the action drag on way to long. It was so over the top and ridiculous that, honestly, it took me out of the film. I was not interested in any of these fights, especially because Clark could legitimately hold his own with these genetically created warriors. Faora and Zod both mention they were created for this sole purpose, yet Supes, with zero formal training at all, hangs with and ultimately defeats them.


Ultimately, just a huge let down here. It felt like Zach Snyder couldn't get away from rushing into the loud madness of the action scenes, and short changed the most interesting aspect of the film. Meh.

Star Trek: Into Darkness - 8/10

Saw it in IMAX 3D and was absolutely blown away. Chris Pine owns the role of Kirk and his interactions with Spock makes the whole thing work. Incredible action sequences, a great villain and effects that were just mind blowingly awesome. I've never been a Star Trek guy, but the first JJ Abrams Star Trek got me good, and this one did it one better.

Man of Steel - 7.5/10

Underwhelming. I understand that it had a lot of hype to live up to, but it was just lacking something.

This is the End - 9.5/10

Seriously laughed my balls off. This is one of the funniest comedies since the first Hangover.

Someone pulled out their cellphone three seats to the right of me, I wanted to slap the popcorn bucket out of his hands and face fuck his lady in front of him. My brother was the voice of reason and advised me that I would miss out on the movie.
