Prisoner of Azkaban - as the only other film I've even partially seen this week was one of the Casper spinoffs on the Disney channel at my friends house when I dropped by.

And I wasnt overly impressed with Azkaban - didnt like some of the directors decisions, storywise and cinematography wise. Not that I'm an expert on the subject.

"Battlestar Galactica" and "Shrek2". Each one very good in it's own way.

The only two movies i've seen in the last week are:

Saving Silverman, and Starship Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation.

Curiosity forced me to NetFlix it. The only redeeming quality was that it showed Kelly Carlson's nekked boobies.

I've only seen two movies in the past week. First I saw Harry Potter, thich was pretty damned entertaining.

The I picked up "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" in the $9 DVD bin at WalMart.

I still don't know how I've managed to go my entire life and not see that one. It's high on my Best Movies EVER list now :D :D :D :D :D

It's cheap because the special collector's edition is out now. Good either way, though.

Speaking of Leone Westerns, I picked up Once Upon a Time in the West (aka Charles Bronson is GOD) yesterday at Best Buy for ten bucks. What a fucking awesome movie.

Is not the opening montage to Johnny Cash's "The Man Comes Around" the greatest opening credits sequence this year?

Got my dad the special edition DVD for his birthday last year. I'd seen the film for the first time fully the day before Charlie died. Made me sad. :cry:

Not just Charlie, all three of the male leads are dead now. Depressing.
