    A stupid timewaster called Dragonball Evolution. Well it was on in the background at least and I was only vaguely aware of it. The reason it was on at all is the director used to be interesting but he's gone downhill something rotten of late. The script was amateurish and the plot unbelievably contrived - seemed to have beeen written to fill itself in.

    'Hey - let's put on show!'
    'You mean make a movie..?'
    'Or a movie...'
    'Cool. What'll it'll be about?
    'Who cares! We'll just make it up as we go along!'
    'What'll be the hook to get people to watch it?'
    'Um, explosions, special effects and-... how about Kung Fu!?'
    'Kung Fu?'
    'Yeah - and an evil demon who wants to take over the world and something about dragons because I like dragons.'
    'I like dragons too.'
    'Are we agreed we all like dragons?'
    'All we need is some investment money and we'll be set!'
    'I know a producer who likes dragons...'
    'Excellent - we're halfway there!'

    It wasn't mindless for me, my head was spinning all the time connecting actors, scenes, and the movies and the comics. My head was working overtime.


    I saw Mallrats again,I think it's one of my favorite Kevin Smith movie!

    I don't read the comics (not sure why?) so I just went with it. Although I do need to see Thor, Captain America, and The Hulk now.

    I saw the Avengers with my friend who hadn't seen all the other movies and knew little about them, during the break I tried to explain all the connections between the movies and the Tesserac and why Banner is Hulk and that Stark's dad knew Rogers and in Iron man II he looks at his dads diary and sees drawings of the tesserac. It's all connected. I was also looking for some 'Whedon actors' cameo. After going on about this for about 5 minuets I realized the people around me were all quiet, now that shut me up.

    After the movie I heard some guys talking about Bana as the first Hulk and I just thougth to myself 'jerks' and started explaining loudly to my friend how Lou Ferriggino was Hulk years ago and still is credited as him in all Hulk movies, cause he talks for him.

    OK now I have babbled on about this in a rate a movie thread so I am gonna shut up and talk to myself. but you should see the these movies 'Thor' and 'Captain America' are very very good.

    Dark Shadows - 7/10. Humorous and highly entertaining.

    Before Sunset--BORING beyond boring. Ridiculous script. Less than spectacular shots of Paris...

    Watched all of The Ninth Gate last night. Because it had Johnny Depp in it, I was expecting it to get better all the time. It didn't, in fact it was like watching the Ladybird Book of Satanism in film.

    I've seen loads of crap films, but never one where a premise has been so poorly exploited to the degree that at the end of the film you have no idea what the point is.

    -25 for being a complete waste of time. Gah!

    Pretty much par for the course.

    I watched Accident, one of a string of Joseph Losey films in which nothing much happens at all. Set in Oxford and starring among others Dirk Bogarde and Stanley Baker, it tells how the arrival of a nubile young female student upsets the connubial and socially cohesive grouping of a don, his family, best friend and star scholar. The femme fatale in question was played by Capucine a former French model turned film star who plays off the men one against the other. Unless you like rather pointless shenanigans set in the beautifully photographed surroundings of an ancient university, don't bother. 5/10
