  1. Guinea Pig: Flowers of Flesh and Blood (Za ginipiggu 2: Chiniku no hana) It's cheap and sadistic torture-porn. Though it's so bad, it's actually enjoyable. From the camera angles, to the closeup of the Samurai, to the terrible effects, the head smacking the wall, this movie is quite funny. Though should only be watched by people who have a strong stomach. 5/10
  2. Some of my favorite songs Sum 41 Hell Song, Still Waiting, Over My Head, Makes No Difference, Some Say, Pieces, 88, No Reason, Welcome To Hell, Underclass Hero Billy Talent This is How It Goes, Line and Sinker, The Ex, River Below
  3. I just came across this part in the book. Can someone please tell me if it's in the movie or not? Cause I found it kind of disturbing for a Harry Potter book, and I couldn't imagine seeing it in the movie. Spoiler: Click here to viewThe part where Umbridge gives Harry detention, and he has "I will not lie" carved into his hand.
  4. ...Because it wasn't the biggest book? The GoF is still the largest/longest HP book that J.K. has published (and has gone on record as saying she won't do another HP book that long).
  5. Well, I decided today I won't be watching the movie in theater. I just started the book, and I want to finish it before I watch the movie. For Goblet of Fire, I watched the movie first, and it ruined the book-reading experience. And no, I can't read Order of Phoenix fast enough to still catch it in theater. I can't read Harry Potter books fast, I don't care to much for them, and I'm not that fond of J.K Rowling's writing. I'm just reading it to get the series over with. Can't stop reading at part 4, might as well go to the end. And since I found out that Order of Phoenix doesn't even hit 2hours 20minutes, I'm not that anxious to see it. I can wait a few months for a DVD release.
  6. Rosemary's Baby (1968): 10/10 Wow...this movie blew me away. Much better than what I was expecting, and different. I was expecting a frightening movie like The Exorcist. The horror in this is hard to explain, but it horrified me greatly. Very disturbing movie, by the end I was almost crying, though maybe that's just because I'm Catholic. Best horror film I've ever seen, better than Exorcist, Shining, and Psycho. Edit: I never went on a FT13 Marathon this time, but I did watch several horror films. All of them being first time viewings. Behind the Mask - The Rise of Leslie Vernon (2006/2007): 7.5/10 The documentary scenes are tremendous, and hilarious. Though the slasher scenes are kinda dull. Overall, a very good film. Hellraiser (1987): 8/10 Young Frankenstein (1974): 5/10 I don't know why, but Gene Wilder annoys me a lot. Though I enjoyed this movie a lot more than Willy Wonka. An American Werewolf in London (1981): 9/10
  7. If you like fiction from the early 1900s and earlier and don't mind reading online, WikiSource is all you need. My friend and I both love it. It has all the essential horror/gothic classics; Frankenstein, Dracula, The Invisible Man, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, works by Edgar Allen Poe and H.P. Lovecraft. If you'd like a long novel, I recommend "The Stand" by Stephen King. Best book I ever read.
  8. Hmm, still gotta read that, only read 1-4. Let's see, I'll finish my current novel today. I can start reading it Wednesday. I'm seeing the movie Friday or Saturday. Damn, I could never read that in 2-3 days. I'm slow, I usually only read 50-150 pages a day. Guess I'll have to watch it then read it, like I did with Goblet of Fire. Aw well. And I am looking forward to the movie a lot. For 1-3, I actually preferred the movies, and only felt that GoF had the better book. I still enjoyed the movie though.
  9. Crash, that's cool. Fighter is an odd choice though. Fighter from '8BIT Theater' is a hilarious character. If this was the greatest characters in webcomics, he'd definitely be up there. But Fighter in FFI....meh. Well he is a good character, game play wise.
  10. VII is great, I just highly dislike Cloud and Sephiroth. I like just about everyone else though. That's why I had to give up on VII though, Cloud. Story was awesome, I just hated that pointy haired bastard. Now IX is a game you can't go wrong with. Much better characters, especially Zidane and Vivi. Can't remember story that well, I jut remembered liking it. And my personal favourite: Tactics. Fairly decent graphics, extremely bad translations (Black Mage = Wizard!!?? WTF!!??), a story that had around a million plot twists and was nearly impossible to follow, yet it's my favourite game of all time. Even though it was very complex, I did love the plot. Hell, the ending made m cry. I don't know...maybe I'm jut retarded... And as for the 2D FF games, VI is the best in my opinion.

    Transformers

    I enjoyed the movie. I was expecting crap. But honestly, when the opening sentence begins with "Before time began...", can you blame me? I was laughing for 5 minutes straight in the cinema because of that line.
  12. 13 Ghosts (remake) terrified me when I watched it (I was around 9-10 at the time though). Poltergeist is a superb horror movie. Similar to the "haunted house theme".
  13. House of the Dead: 0/10 G'eh. Third worst movie I've seen in my entire life (just behind C.Holocaust and Faces of Death). I started getting drowsy around 20 minutes and was fading in and out. An hour in I just shut it off. Makes Bloodrayne look like North by Northwest.

    ...Hasn't Kravitz been on like 30+ minutes now?

    Live Earth

    Bon Jovi's been one of the better performances this concert. Glad to see them get 20+ minutes. I'm looking forward to seeing all the next 3.

    Live Earth

    ...All I wanted to hear was "Like A Prayer". And so far best performances I've seen were Beastie Boys, AFI, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Metallica was easily the best.

    AFI singing Ziggy Stardust!? Glad I went with AFI over Foo Fighters.

    Live Earth

    Guess I'll watch AFI now. Any idea how long the New York one's gonna be? I REALLY wanna see Waters and The Police.
  20. I despise the Blair Witch Project and I hate the idea of shooting an entire movie with hand-held cameras. Yet for some reason I'm still anxious about seeing this movie. I'm getting caught up into the marketing ploy. And I have a feeling this movie will suffer from too much hype. There's no way it'll live up to it, unless it's the greatest movie of the last decade - which this will not be.

    Wait, according to Wiki, Roger Waters is playing in New York later? Is this true!!!???

    Live Earth

    I'm watching this on MuchMoreMusic, so I'm forced to watch just what they show, which is the one in London. How can I watch this online so I can choose what I see?
  23. According to "proof" on IMDB, it's Cthulu. The advertising for this movie is genius, the trailer was brilliant. I can't believe I gotta wait 6 months to see this. I just hope it doesn't suffer from too much hype.
  24. I have never seen a Boll movie and for so long I had avoided his films (can you blame me?). Well I finally decided to give them a try. I was gonna go on a "Uwe Boll Marathon" and watch his 3 video game 'adaptations' in one day. I tried, but I had to space them out. My brain can't handle that amount of abuse in such a short span. Watched one last night, one early today, and I'll watch the other one tomorrow. Bloodrayne: 2/10 I give it 2 instead of 1 cause watching Madsen play Vladmir was hilarious and added to my enjoyment. Other than that, movie had no positives. I could not make out the plot at all. It just seemed like random events happening. The CGI was bad, the acting was emotionless. And as much as I love Meat Loaf's music, he really didn't help the movie at all. Alone in the Dark: 1/10 How did Tara Reid get a Razzie nomination and not Christian Slater? In my opinion, his acting was much worse. The first half was laugh-out-loud funny because of the amount of stupidity. The second half was flat-out boring and I just couldn't pay attention for the last 15-20 minutes. House of the Dead tomorrow...oh joy. Well I watched 2 good movies today. 28 Weeks Later: 7/10 Transformers: 7.5/10 "Fun" is the word in my opinion that best describes this movie. Lots of action, cheesy dialogue, above average plot. The CGI was amazing, the Transformers looked better than I could have ever imagined. Acting overall was pretty good, and Shia really impressed me. An improvement from his performance in Disturbia (which I found fairly decent). So far this is my 3rd favorite movie of 2007 (behind 300 and Grindhouse).
  25. It was a good movie, not as good as the original though. I didn't care for the shaky camera, the score, or whenever the screen was near black and it's hard to tell what's going on. Other than that it was a quality movie. Best horror film I've seen so far this year (well, I've only seen 5, but at least that's something). 7/10
