^ Agreed. Slumdog was definitely in my top 2 or 3 movies of the year.
Slumdog Millionaire -
Beautiful, and Freida Pinto only helped that aspect. Sort of reminded me of City of God. Not AS good, but still a great film.
I was expecting it to be the typical 'Best Picture' movie that the media hypes up only to have pretty pictures, a boring story, and a choppy plot.
I agree. Great movie. Great.
As for it winning Best Song..? Crack. That's the only possible reason...

Haha I really liked the soundtrack actually
I liked the soundtrack a lot also. But I have a crazy diverse taste in musics.

Never the case with Danny Boyle directing..
Pineapple Express-
I actually liked this more than I thought I would. Of course, I'd probably like it more if I were a stoner, but even though I'm not- it still had a lot of funny moments.
My favorite guy in movies, Danny McBride was in it, and I wasn't even aware before watching.
Not quite Superbad or anything, but a funny movie that me and the wife both liked.

I liked some of the songs... but the one that won Best Song, I expected more. It seemed very typical of a lot of songs written these days. Nothing new or special.
Give me Springsteen's song from The Wrestler any day over that one.

I don't recall anything but Quiet Riot, Accept and Motley Crue in The Wrestler...

"The Wrestler" song is in the closing credits only. Incredible song and incredible movie.

It was the one that was actually nominated... closing credits - actually, Bruce was with the crew at the Golden Globes ceremony.
Religulous-
Loved it, but I'm a sucker for any common sense approach to faith and religion that ends up as a documentary. Truly shows how scary it is when people are simply living to die, and how they'll kill the rest of us.

Gloat, have you seen Jesus Camp yet? You might enjoy that film. I found it more frightening than entertaining however. :ha:
Yeah. That one was terrifying. The kid with the rat-tail gave me nightmares.
Fast & Furious
7/10 - It is as it is expected to be. A b-grade joy ride.

XMEN - 13 -
I liked this movie. I just wish they had time to develop the characters a little more. There is no doubt in my mind that they could make this a primetime TV series that did just that.
7/10
On a side note Terminator - Salvation looks bad :grrr::grrr::grrr:!
