CONFESSIONS OF A SUPERHERO is a feature length documentary that chronicles the lives of three mortal men and one woman who make their living working as superhero characters on Hollywood Boulevard. This deeply personal look into their daily routines reveals their hardships and triumphs as they pursue and achieve their own kind of fame. The Hulk sold his Super Nintendo for a bus ticket to LA; Wonder Woman was a mid-western homecoming queen; Batman struggles with his anger, while Superman's psyche is consumed by the Man of Steel. Although the Walk of Fame is right beneath their feet, their own paths to stardom prove to be long, hard climbs.

I thought it was interesting.

Well, he must be a nice guy then for sure.

He is, and very into things that go fast.

I have been catching up on my Steven Segal movies.

It's rather impressive that he's made so many movies playing only one character.

John Wayne was an actor like that. No matter what movie he was in, no matter what character he portrayed, he was always John Wayne.

That trait especially made for a weird Ghengis Khan.

Saw Hot Fuzz, finally. If you haven't seen it, you should.

Nine strangers - a priest; a dancer; a designer; an aspirant rapper; a former tennis pro; a woman on probation; an unsuccessful composer and his wife; and a detective with no apparent connection between them are abducted: drugged, kidnapped and sealed in a house together.

Nine Strangers. One House. Only One Will Get Out... Alive.

The only actor I recognized was Dennis Hopper who played the priest Father Duffy.

Movie reminded me of 'The Cube' except...Let's just say it was not my taste.

Two excellent Australian films:

The Tracker - Quiet but well written and acted film about the 'problem of evil' in the form of racism.

Ten Canoes - And excellent 'story teller' film acted out by the people who own the story. It's kind of a very quiet version of "Apocalypto"

OZ Second Season (3 Disc Series)
DVD/ Color/ 480 Mins./ NR/ 1997
From the Oscar- and Emmy-winning team of Berry Levinson and Tom Fontana comes HBO's groundbreaking, long-running series Oz. Emerald City, an experimental unit of the Oswald Maximum Security Prison, focuses on prisoner rehabilitation over public retribution. In this world, you must choose your friends carefully, because every gang has its mutual friends -- and mutual enemies.

I think this will be my last season for this series.

Prince Caspian. Loved it. I thought it was even better than the first one.

I saw this with my bestfriend. We saw the first one and made plans to see the second. You are right. It was better then the first one. I saw Iron Man twice. My friend didn't see it yet so I saw it with her. We watched 2 movies in one day. One after the other. Iron Man & Narnia Prince Caspian.

The psychological thriller "The Number 23" stars Jim Carrey as a man whose life unravels after he comes into contact with an obscure book titled The Number 23. As he reads the book, he becomes increasingly convinced that it is based on his own life. His obsession with the number 23 starts to consume him, and he begins to realize the book forecasts far graver consequences for his life than he could have ever imagined.

Just A Friendly Reminder.....That the Drive-Inn Movies are now open!!! Grab the family and visit your local drive-inn and enjoy a movie the way it was intended to be enjoyed-outside, with nature.

Why are drive inn's better than theaters?

1. You can bring your own snacks.

2. Two movies for the price of one. Sometimes you pay one low price for the car load.

3. Drive In french fries.

4. You can smoke and drink alcohol. Drink and smoke responsibly and make sure you designate a driver.

5. You can speak during the film without bothering anyone.

6. Barbecues and other family fun.

7. If the film stinks, you can make out with yourself or a friend.

8. Snniiiffff, ahhhhhh....fresh air!

Today at work I saw the following:

Horror movies:
The Cottage
Diary of the Dead
Automaton Transfusion

Comedy:
Hoodwinked

Michael Moore's Sicko. I thought this movie was great. Makes me want to move out of the USA.

Yeah. I watch a lot of movies at work.

 

[Somkid]

The Secret, well I thought it was going to be a move and it turned out to be a really,really and did I mention really stupid documentary that was nothing but a bunch of HOOIE!!! I agree with positive thinking and I believe if you are negative you attract the same but come on these kooks say if you just put out the thought that you will have a million bucks by the end of the year you will get it. One of them said he put the thought out there and people just started sending him checks in the mail until he had over a million dollars (he failed to mention they were royalty checks for his crappy part in this documentary). Anyway it was a load of crap. I'm continuing on my M*A*S*H kick I'm on season 3, at least there is some reality and entertainment value to it.

 

[mrscardero]

I just wanted to say the I love M*A*S*H!!!

 

[Smoke]

That trait especially made for a weird Ghengis Khan.

Weird is an understatement. To make a worse movie than that, you'd need Pauly Shore.

I saw this movie night before last..I dont even know what the name of it was..It was in french so I had to read subtitles..

It was sadistic..I was sick to my stomach and horrified after it was over..These two weirdos entered a couples home..a man and his wife and son...tortured them for days..eventually shot the little boy in the head blowing his brains all over the wall(after making his mother strip down nude in front of everyone)...made the wife chose wether her husband (who they had broken his leg and his arm days prior) should die by being stabbed to death or go easy on him and shoot him..she could not give the order of death by mercy (being shot) so while she delayed the order they stabbed him about 10 times and then shot him anyway..Then they took her out on the lake with her hands taped behind her back and feet binded and tumped her over into the water and paddled off..The whole time they acted like they were just at a picnic..Eating and talking and acting like everything was normal..

Then ...the two guys went to another house ..rang the doorbell..and smiled at the lady that answered...then the movie ended...

Love

Dallas
