Judge Dredd...
I have been holding off on watching this one for so long because of how much I hated the last one. I really wish I didn't wait... it was great.

Over the weekend, I watched the Evil Dead remake.  I enjoyed it (once I got over the lack of Bruce), particularly the foul mouthed Jane and the tid bits from the original sprinkled throughout.  :mrgreen:

Of all the horror remakes that have been done, this has to be the best.  I had a few issues with it, but I think they went with the right tone and the idea to not make a male the lead really helped.  Now I am looking forward to the Evil Dead TV series, starring Bruce!

Judge Dredd...

Dredd was awesome.  In 3D at the theater it was even more awesome.  I am bummed that there likely won't be a sequel, because it did poorly in theaters, I would love a follow-up with Karl Urban and the same director.

I saw the new Sin City this weekend. It was decent, not nearly as good as the first one. I would say maybe wait until its released on BD

I saw Sin City 2 last night and I really enjoyed it.  I will confess I love Frank Miller and the source material, but I thought it was great.  In a world where I see the same comic book movie every other week, seeing something stylish and fresh (since it has been 10 years since the first) is great.

I love a movie where men are men and the throwback feel to the film noir type of guys is great.  None of these hipsters or metrosexual types, I like gritty.  Also, Eva Green was great and given as good of a part of any man in the movie, plus her tits are A++

Evil Dead remake.. I preferred Cabin in the Woods.  Evil Dead remake had some moments, but, I couldn't get too into it. If I had a choice to view Cabin the Woods or Evil Dead remake, I know what I'd choose.

Dredd, good stuff, I had fun in the theatre.

The other movie, no comment on, only seen part of the first one.

Dredd is 100 times better than the Sly version.

years ago, there was talk of a Dredd movie, I thought Demolition Man was, "that" Dredd movie, just renamed. later, the other one appeared. The 2012 Dredd, yes, better than the 1995 stuff. However, Demolition Man and Dredd, they reach the same bar, just about, for me.

Loopers, that movie was pretty good even if they combined the best parts of Terminator and Akira together.

Was this "fun" related to seeing the movie or was there a whole other thing going on? :3

Fun, in that I hadn't seen a 3D movie in.... A LONG TIME (forever?)!

It's OK, I have the BLU here, with a display that supports the stupid glasses, but, I'm not ready for it again, yet.

Demolition Man is better, I still think.

Sandra, Wesley, Sylvester, Denis Leary, Taco bell. .... Can't go too wrong, with that.

*edited to add - and, the three sea-shells. I never figured out how that worked, sanitarily.

All these years, I've never bothered to read any, "Fan Fictions", about  the 3 sea shells. I am sure it is out there, but much like Sly, I'd prefer it to remain a mystery, sine it is never revealed at the end, anyway when he asks. The mystery has been fine with me for the past 20 years or so, so why change. Wadded up paper is fine.

Bells/Murder By Phone - I am still unsure the guy's motive, but, I had an OK time.

Next, I will split it between meals - Project Nightmare.

Project Nightmare, I saw years ago, and was unsure what was going on. I have stories about this, not going to type here, about other folks who saw it. Same deal, it compels you to watch the entire 75 minutes running time.

I may have time, and the stamina to do 75min straight through, but if not, I am not chickening out. I will watch all 75 minutes of it, again.

Blended.

The 50th romantic comedy featuring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore.  It has been a long time since a new Sandler movie made me laugh.  Not the greatest movie in the world, but it exceeded all expectations.

Eventually, I may give that a go.

However, since.. 2002 or so? Adam Sandler movies have equaled a level of hell to sit through. I miss the days, when he starred in movies, where a tour guide complained about, "That damn sasquatch" eating all those school lunches, and him telling people it's cool to pee their pants.

Greatest injustice of the decade:

The Water Boy is unavailable on Netflix, Amazon, and any other streaming service I've tried.  IMO, that was his best work next to Billy Madison.  In many ways, it was even better. (:

Oh, it was stupid, yes, but, "Momma said"...


and, Rob Schneider said, "YOU CAN DO IT!"
