I just watched Densha Otoko. Reminds me of myself.
And I wanna see Kung Fu Panda too! My friend said it was really funny.

edit: I forgot I also just saw the new Indiana Jones. It was pretty cool.

Watched Hulk.
For me, Iron Man has made the bar too high for any superhero flick to come close to it in over-the-top coolness and non-stop flowing story. Otherwise I would've thought Hulk was a pretty good movie, it only feels a little above-average now...

The Super Dimension Fortress Macross: Do You Remember Love?

It's been a long time since I've seen this particular movie, but it's still a very good Macross movie.
The first time I ever saw this one was years ago, and it was a dub, of course, and I even remember that I had bought the video of it.... ancient times with VHS and VCR's.

The Happening

I don't wanna spoil anything, so I just say it was ok.

Bend it like Beckham. Would be more enjoyable if at least 30m shorter..

At least Keira was in it

The Golden Compas;
It pissed me off! They left out the ENTIRE ending of the book! WTF?

The most crutial details got left out, the whole point of the book was THAT ENDING! It doesn't make any sence until you find out THAT ENDING!
GAAAAH

Don't Mess with the Zohan

It was funny but there were a lot of gross parts too

The Happening

Personally, the best for M. Night.. I liked it a lot.
(his other movies were eh...)

IRON MAN: loved it. Great movie for someone like me who was never into comics.

Downey and Paltrow... there's a matchup I never expected. Good thing cause I think you need good acting talent to recite other-worldly dialogue that has no context in our reality (see: Liam Neeson in "The Phantom Menace").

Story is engaging, pacing is good. I never ONCE checked my watch during the movie (a VERY important factor -- even Roger Ebert mentioned doing this during certain boring films). I also wasn't thrown off by the SFX, unlike "Indy 4" and all the "Spider-Man" movies. Too often this tears me away from the story and suddenly I'm back in a darkened room with air conditioning and the smell of processed butter.

At least three-and-a-half stars from me.

p.s. I DID check my watch during the endless parade of trailers, mostly for movies that were already in theaters NOW. I almost forgot that "Iron Man" was released last month.

Finally watched Juno. It was really good, but I wish I had seen it before all the crazy hype.
