I've honestly never been able to get behind the Napoleon Dynamite craze. that kind of humor doesn't do much for me. Tron Legacy soon, love it.

I don't find it very funny, just immensely enjoyable for whatever reason.

Watched Reservoir Dogs, beginning bored me to tears, but once the actual plot kicked into gear I started paying attention again. Definitely not my favorite Tarantino flick- currently that's Kill Bill Volume 1.
Aw, man, Kill Bill is my least favorite of his films. To really get the most out of Tarantino, you have to enjoy his dialogue.

Being savvy about old B-movies helps too. My faves are Pulp Fiction and Inglourious Basterds. I'm also massively pumped for his next movie, Django Unchained. It was about time he finally made a proper spaghetti-style Western. I mean IB was already a crypto-Western in many ways, but that doesn't count. Speaking of Spaghetti Westerns, I saw a movie called Yankee. It's an early entry in the genre (released in '65) and pretty much follows the Fistful of Dollars formula, plot-wise. The cinematography is absolutely amazing though, lots of unusual camera angles and extremely fast editing for the time. There's also a completely batshit insane cast of villains. The main bad guy is a Mexican bandit chief who fancies himself a monarch and his sidekick is a dude called "The Professor" who spends most of his screen time giggling madly. Pure 60s exploitation goodness.

Saw the movie Nemesis recently. It was my kind of movie. Cyberpunk and bad in terms of script and line delivery, but amazing otherwise. Gonna watch Robocop 2 on wednesday (got a reminder set on the TV) and I ordered Rapid Fire on amazon.

Kill Bill is my least favorite of his movies and Reservoir Dogs is my favorite by far. I think I'm going to watch that movie tonight actually...

Saw Poolhall Junkies last night. There's nothing really great about it, but it's good for a Netflix night with some friends.

I'm torn between Pulp Fiction and Four Rooms for my favorite Tarantino movie. As much as I do love Reservoir Dogs, it probably is my least favorite.

Watched Drunken Master last night. Halfway though the movie, I thought thought "Hey, that's Derek Yu!"

I just saw Super 8. It's cinematography was excellent, beautiful. It awed me. The characters and settings were excellent, and ILM didn't disappoint. The story got a bit too scifi than I would have liked though...  ... The film felt like it would have been more engaging and genuine if they left it more down-to-earth. Oh well! Remarkable movie otherwise.
