A typical Segal film gets 1 and a half!? What about a Chuck Norris film?

Alone in the Dark does look pretty awful, but at least it seems like a step up from the guy's last game based move "House of the Dead" (which from the trailer, had NOTHING to do with any of the games!). Oh and don't worry Orph, I'm not a Chuck "The f**k" Norris fan, just checking you didn't rank too highly

Oh God, The Crappicles of Riddick. The game is cool though.

Oh man, I wanted to see Alone in the Dark so bad. Just because it looked so terrible. And it had one of the best psuedo-elit-b-list-actors: Stephen Dworf. [addsig]

Watched 'The Grudge' (US version) last night. Nothing special but some nice tension build-up throughout. It's always better when they only give you glimpses of the big bad. [addsig]

Saw it too ... it was OK, too bad they had Sarah Michelle Gellar in it. She acts like a pancake.

Just watched Mulholland Drive. Not a new movie, from 2001, but still it was one awesome movie. One of the best I've ever seen. Still trying to understand the movie. If you haven't seen it, do so, I strongly recommend it.

I watched The Jacket last week when it came out. I have to say that I was pleasantly suprised, the movie was quite a bit better than I expected. The ending was good as well, I appreciate what the writer did and am happy to see that Hollywood is willing to open its mind a little, even if critics aren't.

This isn't directed at you, but I'm sick of this "Hollywood Makes One Movie" attitude. Because it simply isn't true.

Anyway, I saw the Jacket last week as well. Not what I expected, that's for sure. But I enjoyed it. [addsig]

I don't think that Hollywood makes one movie, and I said that I'm happy they don't. I think that critics review one movie.

I own Mulholland drive, have seen it several times, and still have no freaking clue what the hell is going on in some parts. If you liked that, you may be interested in one of Lynch's other films, Lost Highway. I personally think it's one of my favorite films, but it's incredibly abstract and random. But, if you dwell on it enough, it really does make sense.

You have to realize though, that Lynch doesn't make movies in a normal manner. Basically, he has starts with characters, and various abstract images of what the characters do. Certain visions if you will. He then worries about tying everything together with a storyline, as opposed to most directors who have a storyline in mind first, and create situations based on that.

Once you understand that, things get a bit easier to disect- simply look at the individual parts as being completely atomic first- try to understand the symbolism on that level, then work your way up through the chain, and try to see where everything comes together. If you want, I can give you the basic rundown on Mulholland based on my analasys. [addsig]

I loved the scene in the restaurant when the guy talks about his dream. The atmosphere builds up in such a nice way.

The music is fantastic and those vague, dark tones in the background through the movie really give a creepy feeling. I think I'm going to read some analysis and then watch it again, so feel free to tell what you think of it.

I'll definitely check his other movies out as well. Has anyone seen Twin Peaks btw? I'd like to know what this series is like.
