Watched LITTLE MONSTERS last night. Loved as a kid, and I know why. It's crude, contains foul language, your typical bully drinking urine, and a wise ass who eats peanut butter and onion sandwiches as the star. As a kid, I thought the lead was perfect, the girl was cute, and the monster (howie mandell) could be a perfect friend to get into to mischievous with.

As an adult, I just have to take the movie with a grain of salt and enjoy it for what it is. The movie has a lot of faults, and I can't help the fact I'm all film-schooly when I judge movies, but it's still a lot of fun and entertaining. It's a 3.5 out of 4 stars on being fun, but as far as judging it as a movie, more like a 2 out of 4 stars.

We all have crappy movies we like for our own reasons; this may be the only crappy movie I like that isn't bad for the sake of being bad (Oh Hi Mark).

it's funny. Most things that I enjoyed as a kid, I can dig in to the nostalgia and enjoy now. Things like The Wizard or TMNT movies still rule in book. But when I tried to watch Little Monsters earlier this year it did not go well. It's like everything I remembered thinking was fun or funny about it was actually stupid and annoying. I just thought it was horrible as an adult. And as you may know, I like a lot of terrible movies.

Lord of War. I liked the movie alot when I first saw it, the second time around did not disappoint either. I am just upset that there was no Raging Cagun scenes in it.

Ghost in the Shell

The hi-def transfer is good, but the film itself has lost its visage over time. Nice score, kept the pace going. The final encounter felt rather lame, but everything on VHS seemed more grand :wink:

The Ides of March

A grueling cut-throat battle for the Ohio primary. Really great performances all around, but Gosling's role was superb, especially the scenes with him and Hoffman.

I dig.

Apollo 18

Or Paranormal Activity: Lunar Edition. The only watchable shaky-cam horrors remain [REC] and Cloverfield, this one doesn't deliver.
