Movies

So many people have given me their two cents on X-3. Some of them loved it, some of them hated it, and others were just kind of indifferent.
I guess I liked it more than most, but I also had much lower expectations that other folks. I read back in December that the script was horrible and that the story was weak. So going in I thought that I was going to hate it. Well, I didn't. But that doesn't mean that it was the best movie I have seen all year.
I thought that the script was pretty bad. The dialogue was weak and forced and there was none of that fun banter that made the first two films great. Yet the action sequences were great and the directing was a seamless transition from Singer to Ratner.
I thought that the story was a great idea, but it was left a bit underdeveloped.

Superman Returns was pushed up to June 28th...Which means that I will be able to see it on June 27th at midnight...wait...this just in...the movie will be opening at 10 Pm local time on the night of the 27th. So not only do I get to see it the night before the "hard opening" I get to have a full night's sleep after it!

Pirates of The Caribbean looks pretty bad if you ask me. Now that the novelty of Johnny Depp playing Keith Richards The Pirate has worn off I think that the new movie will be flimsy and lame...but I will be there to see it, just to make sure.

Some folks got to see the Snakes On A Plane preview before X-3. I wasn't one of them and it pisses me off. I instead got to see the preview for Ghost Rider, a snoozefest starring Nick Cage, that doesn't even open until February. And we all know what kind of movies open in Febraury. The last big hero movie that rolled out in the Hallmark Month of Hearts was Dare Devil. ZZZZzzzzzz.

Quick, summer TV! My top 5 shows for the summer season...

1. Big Brother All-Stars
2. Saved
3. The 4400
4. Windfall
5. Lost (gonna watch it again)

Lost of peeps love Rescue Me. I tired to like it, but I just couldn't D.L. is awesome, but it was too much ghost story and too little rescue.
