I literally just finished watching The Watchmen (Directors Cut). Who watches the Watchmen? I do.

TBH on my first viewing I wasn't that impressed with the movie. I thought it was OK. This time around I found it to be rather awesome. Weird.

I had a lot of free time yesterday so I watched:

"Support Your Local Gunfighter" with James Garner. I liked "Support Your Local Sheriff" better. Garner's character was less of a jerk in that one.

"Villa Rides". My dad calls it one of his favorite wildly historically inaccurate movies about Pancho Villa. I didn't realize that was a category large enough to have more than one favorite.

"The Great Chase" Slapstick comedy movie, kind of like those Wacky Races cartoons, with Jack Lemmon as the evil Professor Fate. It took me 2.5 hours into the movie to realize his sidekick was Peter Falk (Columbo). I did laugh a lot, even if the plot to usurp a small European nation's throne came out of left field.

"The Bedford Incident" Cold War era mutally assured destruction paranoia. Not a cheery way to end the day, but it had some nice tense moments.

Sigh...

I watched Happiness.

That was definitely a one-time event.

Rise of the Planet of The Apes last night. It was actually really good, better than I thought it would be, and I expected it to be pretty good.

Went to the theater today and saw Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows. It was good. Not as good as the first one IMO, but still worth the see.

I saw Mission Impossible 4. It was awesome. The 6 minute Dark Knight Rises trailer was just icing on the cake.

My daughter and I saw Sherlock Holmes Game of Shadows...thought it was very good, matter of fact we both thought it was better than first, and yep we had icing too!
DK trailer was GREAT...can hardly wait.

I saw the remake of Fright Night. It was a pretty good monster movie. They didn't stick too closely to the original which was nice.

Last night I watched Detective Dee and it was pretty good.

A couple of weeks before that I watched Margin Call and that was disturbing and engaging.

I want it to watch a cute documentary about Giraffas with my girlfriend, so I get "inside giants: Giraffas"

I thought it was going to see a nice documentary about the secret and world of the cute GIraffas.


BUT IT WAS ACTUALLY INSIDE THE GIRAFFAS BECAUSE THEY FRICKING OPEN A GIRAFFA! IT WAS AN AUTOPSY STUDY OF ANATOMY ASND MORE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE THINGS!

But did you like it?

IT WAS HORRIBLE HORRIBLEEEEE!

One of the few movies I could not finish.

:speechles

Last movie I saw was Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, which was pretty great if you like realistic spy fiction.

I know that's the title of the book, but I just can't take that movie seriously with such a goofy name.

That being said, today I watched Batman: Under The Red Hood, and Hoodwinked. Both were enjoyable. It makes me sad to hear Hoodwinked 2 sucked.

Saw Young Adult. Predictable at times, but still felt like an honest story about a terrible person. Worth seeing.

Last one I saw was Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows. It was pretty good! I have my own personal qualms but overall it was very enjoyable and well worth the price of admission.
