Movie Trailer review, episode 16
I saw Stardust today with Lindsay. We both liked it and I think people will be liking it for years to come. We also had to sit though nine commercials… NINE!
The Golden Compass
I guess it’s based on a book series. The polar bear looked cool. Some actors are in it. I don’t really care.
The Spiderwick Chronicles
Another book series. It seemed a little bit like The Neverending Story crossed with The Chronicles of Narnia. And it looks like pure trash.
The Nanny Diaries
If I was a professional film critic and I were paid to see this film and write an unbiased review of it then I would. But I’m not. This film is exactly the kind of trash that is stealing our culture…. it’s not amateur’s on the Internet it’s professionals in Hollywood making this pure turd film that cause the decline in American art.
Elizabeth: The Golden Age
“Merchant Ivory films presents….” Alright, alright, I kid. This is a sequel to a 1998 film called “Elizabeth” and it stars Kate Blanchett. The film is about the Spanish Inquisition and the war that England fought to keep Spain out of her boarders. The sets and the costuming are sure to win an Academy Award and the acting is sure to be top notch. I will avoid this movie like the plague.
Beowulf
Written by Neil Gaiman. Rad. Stupid effing motion capture. Not rad. I don’t understand the point of taking motion capture and making the animated figures look exactly like the actors and turning the entire movie realistic to the point that it doesn’t look animated… it just seems counter productive and way too much work. Beowulf should have been live action, but since it’s this motion capture then I really don’t care about it.

You saw stardust at the Carmike place off 694, didn’t you?
I hate Carmike with a passion, they almost made me hate the Simpson’s movie.
No, I saw it at the Marcus. The commercials don’t really bother me too much because they air before the movie start time. If my ticket is for 4:15 and they start showing commercials at 4:15 then I get itchy but they Marcus usually has the movie starting at 4:15 so it was my desision to sit there and watch the commercials before the start time of the movie listed on my ticket. Did that make sense?
It did make sense, perhaps that’s why I never really hated Marcus, I’m always getting there barely in time.
Never go to Carmike. You will hate life for days.
