Bad Grandpa - Pretty funny. Just a bunch of stuff from Jackass strung together by a storyline. The thing I can't get over is how they got the kid to go along with everything so well.

I was shocked at how funny I thought that movie was.  The kid is great, but Johnny Knoxville has a knack for saying hilarious stuff off the cuff.

The previews ruined a lot of the most hilarious parts. That made me sad.

The Spectacular Now - Almost like a mix of Perks of Being a Wallflower and Smashed. (If you haven't seen Smashed, you must. I watched it for Aaron Paul but he's about #10 on the list of reasons I loved it.) I loved it because any movie that has a young, newfound relationship is already endearing, but that kid's personality reminded me a lot of myself in high school. Really in college too, when it comes to being so afraid to fail that you don't take any steps forward in your life. But his conversation with his mom in the end really got me. A couple of people really close to me have the same outlook on themselves and how people view them, and it's really sad that you can't talk to them logically about it.

Mr. Nobody (2009) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0485947/

i mean it's like a surreal and abstract art-house and more complicated version of Sliding Doors, in case anybody is interested. also with Jared Leto instead of Gwyneth Paltrow. the more i think about it, the more i love it. you guys just watch it.

well that was very enjoyable and the kid that played sutter was just fantastic.

[DQ12]

yeah yeah yeah, sutter was great and all, but that amy finnicky, eh?!

she was so nice and loved sutter SO much.  that part when sutter was like "it's in 10 minutes," and she's like "ten minutes from now?" "ok whatever sure i'll come."  also the part where she's like "we never have to talk about it again."

WHAT!  Are you crazy?!  If i was a feminist, I would hate this movie and Amy Finnicky for the creation of an absolute absurdly amazing, caring female character.  She is an impossible standard. Plus a boozehound!

And beautiful too!  Va va voom.

Sutter is a great character we all probably knew at one point, but goodness gravy, that Amy Finnicky.
