Special When Lit:A Pinball documentary
Not too shabby. It takes a while to pick up steam but I enjoyed this documentary. Learned alot about pinball that I had no idea about ( like it being illegal for a good chunk of time prior to the 70's). It's on instant.

The Raid
I won't mention Redemption part of the title, since it just retarded a US studio bullshit name that's not part of the real titile. So, yes the story is a bit thin and generic, but people, WOULD YOU STILL LIKE TO SEE THE BEST ACTION MOVIE OF THE DECADE? On that part, it's impecable, and a complete masterpiece. Yes, masterpiece. That word has to be used here. You may or may not connect with the story, but unless you just suffered an aneurysm, anyone bitching about the action scenes and the impecable fighting (finally a feature showing how deadly a knife really is!) should be beaten for their own good.

Actually they had to tack on "Redemption" because of some licensing shit. The director said it was changing the whole title or adding a subtitle, and they had already spent time and money marketing it as "The Raid" so he randomly picked "Redemption" because alliteration is fun.

Trademark issue from what I read. But who cares about the rule of law? amirite?

And it's a minor issue to this great flick. I remember Hocken saying on Facebook that the fights in The Raid were as good as the one in They Live. Proof he's Hocken. Sure, it's a legendary fight, but only because IT NEVER FUCKING ENDS. Technically, it's not very good...

And I too love They Live, but still....
Horrible Bosses Much better than I expected. All 3 leads were good, as were the 3 bosses. Aniston as never been so hot, Spacey devious, and Farrell so fun (LOVED his Alexander painting in his apartment). Day was the revelation for me. Ioan Gruffudd as the wetwork guy had me in tears... Lots of great actors in small roles (Bunk, The Old Spice guy)

Watched Where the Wild Things Are last night. Man, what a depressing fucking movie. I don't remember the book being as depressing. The kid who played Max was pretty fucking great and I loved the suit designs but I wish it was a bit more light-hearted.

Hated WHERE THE WILD THING ARE. The film had zero joy to it.

Crazy talk. The joy is in realizing that being a kid fucking sucks, and being an adult can be a lot better. That learning how to deal with your emotions is the most important part of growing up and becoming an adult.
