Saw RED 2 last Thursday. Loved it but I thought the Papa Johns product placement was obnoxious.

I just watched Flight, the ending really makes one stop and think, great movie.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

You would like that, wouldn't you?
(For those who haven't seen it, there are religious implications.)
I just watched Brick, which is proof positive that special effects and big budgets are so unnecessary.
I also watched Battle Royale, which I ended up quite enjoying, although I always feel as I'm losing a lot of the dialogue and meaning when watching Japanese movies translated into English.
Also, We Are The Millers, which turned out to be fairly funny.

Watched Midnight Express last night to remind myself never to try to smuggle hashish out of Turkey. Just before that, I watched Bully, which I found heartbreaking.

The World's End. Very enjoyable, but an extremely odd duck, that movie.
Highly recommended!

I have not seen Flight, but I have seen Life of Pi. I was expecting to be wowed at the end, that perhaps the movie had actually accomplished evidence for god's existence. I was sorely disappointed, because it was just the same-old illogical religious rhetoric.

This was typical "man denies god's existence and has terrible life of misery and drug abuse but figures out the right thing to do and suddenly concludes god exists." It was the same-old pretentious bullshit that Christians eat up like candy. It's too bad, because it was a decent movie besides that.
