Yeah, I that's it. Don't know why I wanted to know that, I guess it's just the one thing that popped into my head when I thought of that movie.

Came home late from hanging out with some friends the other night and ended up catching Mean Streets on TV. It had been a really long time since the last time I saw the movie so I stayed up and watched it.

I watched A Clockwork Orange for the first time. I'd heard it was exceedingly violent and sexual...well, it didn't really phase me that much. I suppose since the film's release, it has been both over hyped and outdone by other films. The shock factor simply wasn't as shocking as I'd been led to believe. Still, an enjoyable film, and I can chalk another one of Kubrick's films off the list.

Rewatched Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (the original) last night. Man, that's such a fun movie. And something occured to me. I think TMNT was directly responsible for my enjoyment of pizza.

Same here. But I do want to expose my brother (he's 16) and his friends (in the 15-17 age range) to this.

And recently...

Much better than the new film (based on the B'way musical based on the original).

The third time I've seen it, it was also the first John Waters film I've ever seen.

Watched The Hangover this weekend.
Great movie if you want a good time. When I wasn't laughing out loud I was smiling the whole time :)

Speaking of vile and disgusting and John Waters.... guess what I just saw...
No movie, no person, NOTHING IS AS FILTHY AS DIVINE!

if you want a shocker, ack, this one will definitely do the trick.
Also, I wish this was the first Waters flick I saw. Crybaby was alright... but goddamn do I love the midnight movie scene!
Don't that just look oh so tasty?

This was a good movie... it was the first comedy I've seen in a while that didn't let me down. I'd say it's up there with Beerfest.

Don't worry, it's in the Netflix queue. It will be the first John Waters film I ever see. A buddy of mine used to serve as a projectionist at a movie theater in Birmingham that would show this from time to time at midnight matinees. He claims it's one of his favorite films. I figured I had to see it.

+1 for The Hangover. It's funny without resorting to being just plain dumb or shock humor. Actually genuinely funny, which for some reason you just don't see in new movies these days (at least the one's I've seen). The mystery aspect of it is kind of a cool twist, too.
