great independent films

the big bad swim

away we go

more 2010 movies


Kung Fu Panda: The Kaboom of Doom (a sequel. why am i not surprised?)


Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Pt I (when will it ever end?)

Harry Potter the Deathly Hallows: Part II (why just make money off one movie, when you can double it with two movies?)


Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader (ok, we get it. there's talking animals. enough already. i hope the lion isn't a total d*ck like he was in the last movie. he could have saved all of narnia from the humans, but he let most of them die until the kids came back. AND he was still a d*ck when they did come back by not fixing everything right away. they had to wait 'til the end and play a heartwarming song to make it all ok. it's not ok, the lion is still a d*ck.)


Green Hornet (really? with seth rogen? a far cry from the 60's show with bruce lee)


Red Dawn (if only patrick swayze was alive to make a cameo appearance. i'll never forget the pissing in the radiator scene with c. thomas howell. wolverines!)


Gulliver's Travels (speaking of pissing. the big question is, in the book, he puts out a fire in lilliput by pissing on it. will jack do it? and is it just lilliput or is it every trippy land, including the talking horses, like with ted dansen.)


Prince of Persia (Bubble Boy goes to Iraq, but this time, not as a Jarhead, as Alladin.)

some 2010 movies

action:

Daybreakers (sci-fi vampires, sort of. this time humanity is the minority)


Inception (the matrix meets dreamscape)


The Book of Eli (a post apocalyptic tale with denzel kicking ass)

Green Zone (the ultimate, supreme bourne identity)

Iron Man2 (why is it that robert downey junior is so short and iron man is really tall?)

The Last Airbender (m. night shyamylan. did i spell that right?)

Salt (like the last one with guns and angelina jolie)


comedy:

Youth in Revolt (similar to napoleon dynamite)

A Couple of Dicks (kevin smith directs, bruce willis)

Grown Ups (imagine everyone you laugh to all in one movie. adam sandler, kevin james, chris rock, ..)


Hot Tub Time Machine (80's comedy. it's a rental)

Little Fockers (and another meet the parents movie. for TBS viewing only)


Despicable Me (cartoon, cartoon with steve carell)



campy (but trying to be cool):

Clash of the Titans (only this time it's CGI)

The Wolf Man?!? (like from the 50's?)

Robin Hood (this time robin hood is the bad guy, and yes russel crowe gets to punch people again)

The A-team ? (it kind of looks like the B-team to me, can i pick my team members again?)

Twilight: Eclipse (another one? i'm still vomitous from the last one. maybe it'll be eclipsed by ironman2)

Tron (holy crap! i want one of those light bikes. they'll make anything into a remake movie. i fully expect krull and 21 jump street to be movies soon.)




there's a tom cruise movie in there somewhere too, but..well.. you know)



rom&romcom: (for those who liked the notebook, and yes, you have to go on dates sometimes)

Valentine's Day (i don't buy it that someone as hot as jessica beals can't find a date, or is it jennifer beales? no she's from flash dance. ok, i got it, it's jessica biel)

I Hate Valentine's Day (I guess they hate that movie with jessica beals, i'm mean biel. yeah, i hate it too)

Leap Year (it's a rom com, but it's different because they go to ireland)

It's Complicated (i'm sure it is. go see this with your recently divorced girlfriend)

Letters to Juliet (italy and shakespeare something)

When in Rome (just don't see it. you'll thank me later)
