I like David Lynch a lot but I wouldn’t have him in the #1 spot. Takashi Miike should be wayy up higher in the list, at least ahead of Michael Moore. What is Michael Moore even doing on this list and where is Terry Gilliam? [Link]

I haven’t finished watching the movie, its currently still playing but I have already decided its getting a 5 out of 5. Do you like Jackass? Well Jackass is to Dirty Sanchez what WWF is to UFC. Dirty Sanchez is the real thing. I just watched one of the guys get a liposuction at some cheap ass unlicensed clinic in some run down neighborhood in Thailand which is bad enough by itself except the guy got the lipo suction while he was awake and no anesthesia! When he was done the doctor gave him the bottle of fat that was sucked out. Later in the night they played some Bangkok Roulette and at the end of the night one of the losers drank a glassful of the fat that was sucked out of the other guy! It can’t get any grosser then that. Thats a 5 out of 5, you have to watch this movie. [Link]

Its difficult to describe this movies genre. From the image above you can guess its leading towards horror but when you realize that the movies executive producers are Ben Affleck and Matt Damon you start to doubt it can be just a horror. Well it isn’t. Its more like a horror comedy but I don’t think thats a good description either because those things are usually funny not scary, like Shaun of the Dead. Feast is actually a real horror with A LOT of blood and gore but there is a lot of sense of humor through out the whole thing, like small touches here and there that don’t take away from the horror aspect. For example without giving a spoiler, in one scene one of the male hero’s of the movie has his pants ripped off. So, a girl tells the guy she has pants in her bag. You would think its her husbands pants or something but he comes back wearing pink tracksuit bottoms. He spends the rest of the movie battling out the monsters in a pink tracksuit bottom with a shirt and tie on top. Silly things like that. Oh and none of the people in the movie have names, they have descriptions. So you have Drunk Girl, Hero, Harely Mum, Beer Guy etc.. etc..

So whats the movie about? Its simply about a bunch of people stuck in a bar in the middle of no where who are put in a situation to fight off monsters. It’s a simple plot but really entertaining. I am not a big fan of horrors but this movie was really really fun to watch. You can check out the movie trailer on the official Feast website. I am giving this movie a 4 out of 5. [Link]

I am a huge fan of the Rambo movies and when I heard they were coming out with part 4 I couldn’t have been any happier. Then I found out that Matthew Fox who plays Dr Jack Shepherd on LOST was going to the be the lead bad guy in Rambo IV I was like wow, thats crazy. Now I just found out that Jack Bauer who plays Kiefer Sutherland in real life is also going to be in Rambo IV. The movie is going to come out next year, I wonder who else will end up starring in it.

If you can’t wait till the movie 300 gets released next year then you could buy the comic to keep you occupied till then. How close is the comic to the movie? I took two pictures from the comic and two screen shots from the movie trailer and you can see for yourself below.

If you are interested you can buy the hardcover version of the comic for only $18 from Amazon.com [Link]

The official trailer for the movie 300 is out, looks really really good. [Video]

I just watched the trailer to Frank Millers upcoming movie called 300. The trailer isn’t officially out and every site that hosts it are being forced to remove it by Warner Brothers including Google Videos and YouTube. I found a site that still has the trailer up so check it while it there. The movie so far looks amaaazzziiinggg! [Link]

Fun to watch. [Video] #

Two years ago I read somewhere that Ewan McGregor was going to ride a bike around the world. I didn’t think much of it then and totally forgot about it until a few weeks ago Marzouq mentioned Long Way Round on his blog. Turns out Ewan McGregor took cameras with him on the trip and he turned his adventure into a documentary. So right after I read Marzouqs post I download the series from the Internet and I watched it none stop for 2 days.

Long Way Round is a documentary that is 7 episodes long and it takes you on an adventure with Ewan McGregor and his best friend Charley Boorman on a 151 day journey from London all the way to New York. They headed East from London through a couple of countries in Europe, then they headed into Russia, Kazakhstan, Mongolia then Russia again followed by Siberia where they then took a plane to Alaska. From Alaska they then rode down to Calgary and then down into the US until they reached New York. It was a really incredible and extremely exhausting journey. Mongolia for example has only 80 miles of tarmac so the majority of their ride was on gravel and offroad.

It was really fun to watch the documentary and by the end of it you just want to quit your job, go out and buy a bike and then travel the world on it. I was really disappointed when it finished and I really wished it was longer because it felt like I was with them on their adventure. My final rating is easily a 5 out of 5. The only other series I have given a full 5 stars to is Band of Brothers so its not a score I give out easily unless its really worth it.

You can buy Long Way Round on DVD from Amazon

I just watched the trailer for Snakes on a Train and it looks funnier then Snakes on a Plane. [Link]

From the cast list I was expecting this movie to be great and after watching it I have to say it was. The Sentinel stars Michael Douglas, Kiefer Sutherland, Eva Longoria, Kim Basinger and David Rasche (Sledge Hammer). Its a really fucking cool cast and they all play cool roles, for example you have Jack Bauer playing an investigator in the secret service, David Rasche playing the president, Kim Basinger the presidents wife and Eva Longoria a secret service rookie. Last time I saw David Rasche play a president it was on the comedy show DAG along side one of my favorite comedians David Alan Grier (In Living Color). When I found out he was playing the president in this movie I was like how the fuck could he pull it off without making us laugh. It must be his more mature aged look now because David Rasche was just fucking amazing. Actually, everyone was, this movie brought out the best in everyone. Like Eva Longoria, no way on earth did I think she would ever be able to pull off the role of a secret service agent, but not only did she pull it off, the role actually suited her a lot. Jack Bauer was naturally incredible, he was born to play the role of a special agent. Kim Basinger was also the perfect presidents wife and Michael Douglas who I haven’t liked since his last good movie The Game, fit his part like a glove.

The movie is about an assassination attempt on the president which is always an exciting plot. The movie was fast paced and never dragged or felt slow or boring. The only thing I would change would be the ending, I felt it finished to quickly and was a bit on the weak side. The whole thing felt like an episode of 24, which is a very good thing. This is why I give this movie a 4 out 5. The reason I didn’t give it anything higher is because I don’t think this movie will be a classic in the same way Clint Eastwoods “In the Line of Fire” is. Although I prefer The Sentinel, the assassination plot isn’t as deep and important to the movie the same way as it was in In the Line of Fire. Never the less, this is a really fucking great movie to watch.
