-The Dark Knight (No Spoilers)-

     Well, I saw it and what can be said? It's simply the best superhero movie made, hands down, and without a doubt (sorry Spidey and Ironman). I read a quote somewhere that pretty much summed it up..."This isn't a comicbook movie, it's a graphic novel movie." That hit it right on the head.
     To go into a little more detail (don't worry, no spoilers)every actor did great. I mean yeah, Heath was phenomenal but so were Bale, Eckhart, Oldman, Caine, Freeman and the rest. They all had great performances. I could really tell that Nolan and the cast really read up on their Batman graphic novels. Many of the psychological aspects of the film were taken directly from them. The music was another drop dead awesome part of the flic. It really added to the creepiness and suspense..and I do mean suspense. This movie will have you gripping your seat practically the whole time, and sweating about who you can trust and not trust.
     So to sum up, this movie sets a new standard on what you can do with a flic that is based off of comic book characters. 20 years from now, examples will still be taken from this movie. Oh...and I have to say, this is definitely not a movie for the little ones. They were really treading the fine line between PG-13 and R. There may not have been much blood or cursing, but the tension and overall creep factor was sky high.

-Anyone Have Crash Problems with DAv.6?-

     V.6 is pretty darn cool I think, but it seems to be crashing my browser. I'm using the latest version of FireFox and seems to crash mostly when I do a "select all" in the messages center and then try delete. Anyone else having this problem?

-WALL-E-

     So I saw WALL-E this weekend. And I gotta say, it's gotta be my favorite Pixar animation yet. Not only did it look beautiful, and eyepoppingly realistic at some points, but the camera work was what really impressed me. Racked focus effects and quick zoom ins & outs really made this film stand out from Pixar's other ones. And the ability to tell a story, with virtually no talking, is very impressive indeed. Great film!
