It's Ninja Wheelie Time!!!

Because I'm bored, I've spent the better part of the day surfing the Internet, not unlike gc does every day. As such, I stumbled on a bunch of movies coming out that I really want to see---some of them I had heard about, some I hadn't. I figured I'd throw a few posters up on here to see what other people thought, because going to the movies by yourself isn't all that fun.

1) The Ringer----Starring Johnny Knoxville, I'v been waiting for this movie to come out for over a year now. I don't know what the hold up was, but I'm glad it's finally coming out.


2) V for Vendetta----I had heard about this a while ago, but didn't know what it was. It's apparently an adaptation of a graphic novel, along the lines of Sin City. Look weird, but in a good way---plus it might have Natalie Portman in it, so.........


3) Hostel----Another weird film, along the lines of Saw and Cabin Fever, both of which I really liked. Not a lot of premise, you pretty much know what you're getting with these movies. Throw in Quentin Tarantino, and the fact that this is supposedly the goriest "major release" movie ever in the U.S., (depending on what review your read), and I'm all over it.


4) Underworld: Evolution----I also really liked the first Underworld, so I was glad to see they were making another one. I think any time a movie grosses $100 million dollars like the first one did, Hollywood starts drooling over sequels. Hopefully they don't screw it up, but we'll see. Again, you pretty much know going in what you're gonna get, you don't set your sights too high with some movies.


So that's enough for now I guess, there are others but I should at least pretend to get some work done today. Not that it really matters, mind you. Feel free to throw out anything else that might be upcoming, like I said I really had no idea so many movies were coming out that I wanted to see.

True--I've never gone to the movies by myself, it's probably not that bad. Depending on the movie, of course--you don't want to show up to the premiere of "Mean Girls" by yourself, that's just creepy.

I have no idea who Drew is, but I do kinda want to see Munich.

Yeah, I posted those on dnoc's a long time ago, no one noticed-----had to dust the cobwebs off just to look at it. They probably only make sense to two people, myself included, but I've been cracking up about it ever since.
