Filmalog: Spider-Man 3 (2007)
http://filmaloguer.blogspot.com/2007/05/spider-man-3-2007.html
Monday, May 21, 2007. The subtitle for Spider-Man 3. Sells Out" because it's applicable to both the character in the movie and to the movie itself. While I didn't have high expectations, I wanted to like Spidey. 3, Pirates 3). S 2, 3, and especially 4, Spidey. 3 suffers from surplus-villain syndrome and character- developmentophobia. Both of which are common symptoms of sequelitis. 1) Here we get Green Goblin, Jr., Sandman, and Venom, whose main functions are to distract us from the mish. Peter Parker is...

Filmalog: May 2007
http://filmaloguer.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 31, 2007. Bande à part = Band of Outsiders (1964). Although I'm not sure what to make of what I saw, I liked it. It helped a bit to watch the "visual dictionary" featurette on the DVD afterwards, which pointed out a number of film and literary references that were lost on me and probably anyone else who wasn't a film student or a member of the original audiences. Not to suggest the film is in any way irrelevant. Au contraire! Of getting something as simple as that wrong seems ludicrous.

Filmalog: March 2007
http://filmaloguer.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 22, 2007. Farce of the Penguins (2006). Bob Saget, who's funny (and foul-mouthed). Now dontcha know, saw March of the Penguins. And decided he had to make a parody. So, with the help of lots of stock footage and lots of actor/comedian friends, he did. And although I thought March of the Penguins. Was good, it was certainly asking to be parodied once media and silly conservative types started praising the penguins' " family. Sunday, March 18, 2007. Huo Yuan Jia, aka Jet Li's Fearless (2006).

Filmalog: Summer Movie Splendor
http://filmaloguer.blogspot.com/2007/10/summer-movie-splendor.html
Friday, October 12, 2007. I won't bother making excuses (although there are plenty of good ones — moonlighting. For example) for the lack of updates over the summer. Here's a rundown, roughly in chronological order, of every movie I watched from mid-June to late September. Memoirs of a Geisha. 2005) rating: 4.0. 2003) rating: 9.0. Also great: Hope Davis as Joyce, and Judah Friedlander who played Toby the "nyerd.". 1967) rating: 10.0. So not only is The Graduate a great movie, but it represents sort of a ...

Filmalog: Grindhouse (2007)
http://filmaloguer.blogspot.com/2007/05/grindhouse-2007.html
Tuesday, May 8, 2007. Overall rating: 8.0. Could possibly be my favorite zombie movie after. Shaun of the Dead. Whereas the latter is a comedy with action,. Is an action movie with tongue-in-cheek comedy. For example, Cherry Darling's (Rose McGowan's) gun-leg is simultaneously super-badass and super-cheesy. The plot is irrelevant and utterly uncomplicated- zombies, mayhem, explosions- so I'll just list things I loved, in addition to the "leg.". Terminator, Aliens, Navy Seals, The Rock. From Dusk Till Dawn.

Filmalog: April 2007

Tuesday, April 24, 2007. He's more helium now than man: inflated and evil.". Okay I know this is extremely tangential to the usual movie stuff, but I had to make note of this:. For more info: http:/ www.starwars.com/community/event/celebration/news20070417b.html. This also creates an opportunity in the uber-nerdy bumper sticker market. Namely, one that reads: "My other car is the inflated head of Darth Vader.". Monday, April 23, 2007. Best Cop movie. Ever. Anyway, I made some comments a few posts ago.

Filmalog: February 2007
http://filmaloguer.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 28, 2007. Stranger Than Fiction (2006). Somewhere in the middle of watching this movie I wondered, "What would Charlie Kaufman. Have done with this story idea? What I'm getting at is, the story was a good idea, especially for a romantic comedy, but it wasn't as ambitious as its premise allowed. Nevertheless, the movie is worth a look, and makes some interesting, if heavy-handed, points about art and sacrifice, and about facing death. Sunday, February 25, 2007. Anyway, I liked. Now I h...

Filmalog: June 2007
http://filmaloguer.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 13, 2007. Kerbot's comment on my previous post reminded me that I had been meaning to explain the numerical ratings I give each film. As I wrote in my very first post. The ratings are intentionally unreliable because they're relative to the movie itself and others like it. Therefore, you can't use them to create an overall ranked list of all the films rated, like Rotten Tomatoes has been doing with certain genres. 10 = perfect, or, one of my all-time favorites. 6 = a little above average.
