ugh you just get in a rut and seem to have n o t h i n g to say on this thing sometimes. but ok i love talking about movies, i could do it all day, and there is that year in review thing you do so let's.. since i conveniently keep all of my movie ticket stubs and am able to actually review, this is fun:

well yknow some of the best movies at the beginning of the year are actually 2002 movies but just got here late - Chicago, Adaptation, About Schmidt, The Hours, The Quiet American. i need to see The Quiet American again because it was probably my favorite drama of last year but i can never find it on VHS. i may need to make a resolution to get a DVD player.

good/great dramas of the year also include: Rabbit-Proof Fence, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, Talk To Her, The Pianist, Northfork (v.good), Seabiscuit (it's hard to hate it), The Secret Lives of Dentists, Mystic River, The Station Agent, Pieces of April, The Return of the King, Elephant, Cold Mountain, Big Fish (the best holiday movie by far).. still waiting for 21 Grams

great action could be found in: The Recruit, Willard (i like rodents, what can i say), X2, The Matrix Reloaded (tho it was a crappy ass movie, still haven't seen the 3rd one..), Pirates of the Caribbean, 28 Days Later, Open Range (yes i said it, one of the greatest gun fights ever), Once Upon a Time in Mexico (also got my vote for longest title), KILL BILL VOL. 1, Return of the King again, and really Cold Mountain again too.. freakin scary battle scene that i haven't seen the likes of before.

good/great comedy: Old School, A Mighty Wind, Down with Love, Bruce Almighty, Finding Nemo, Pirates, Lost in Translation, Love Actually, Elf, Something's Gotta Give

Funniest Movie: Lost in Translation

Scariest Movie: 28 Days later and the first half of Elephant

i think it's safe to say the Lord of the Rings is the greatest movie trilogy of all time.. that's pretty cool

Great Documentaries: Jeff Buckley, Winged Migration

Most Disappointing Movie(s): The Life of David Gale, Daredevil, Phonebooth, The Crime of Father Amaro, The Matrix Reloaded, Bad Santa

Worst damn movie of the year, so bad it makes me twitch with hatred: The Life of David Gale

and of course.. the best movie of the year, my absolute favorite in probably a few years: Lost in Translation. back in theatres now kids. altamonte 8. 9pm. go. see. it. bill's getting an oscar, yes he is.
