I finally watched this last night while I was taking apart ball-clock motors to figure out why they weren’t working. The movie seemed to flow back and forth between great and disappointing. You would be watching and realize that you had drifted into something not so good and then you would find yourself back into […]

Saqw this last night with Terry and Gerald. I think we were the only ones in the theater. It had some spooky stuff but not too much. I didn’t like either one of the actors as lawyers, neither one seemed to carry off the lawyer character very when while they were in the court room. […]

This is the worst movie of the year. I haven’t even seen close to all of them, but as a person who saw every movie for 6 years, I know the worst movie of the year when I see it. It actually might not be the worst, this movie was made 2 years ago which […]

I saw the poster for this movie and thought it didn’t look too promising. Then I saw the trailer and realized that this is a must-see movie. Yeah, I’m a little late, but so was he! I was right, this was a must-see movie for me. I enjoyed it from beginning to end and there […]

It looks like the link DVB gave me for our CinemaSports film, Yellow, is not available anymore (bandwidth exceeded?). Anyway, I’ve put a copy up in the ftp space I get from my provider so if you couldn’t download it before, here you go. Requires QuickTime 7 or QuickTime7 Public Preview 3 (or newer) if […]

The film that D4 (Dan, Dallas, David, and myself) made last weekend have been put into a downloadable format here. If you want to see what kind of short film you can make in 10 hours (plus a little post-processing by David this past week) you should watch it. It’s about 47MB and requires QuickTime […]

I wanted to see Saw when I noticed that the dvd box for it was clear and the dvd was printed to look like a saw blade. Now that I have seen it, I’d had to say that it is a pretty good and suspenseful movie and if you like those then you should see […]

A few weeks ago I had lunch with a group, among which was DVB. I happened to ask if he was goign to do anymore one-day film making like he did earlier int he year for CinemaSports in Santa Cruz. He told me that funnily enough, he was going to do one in two weeks […]

The 4th and final movie of the weekend for me is The Skeleton Key. I saw this with Nicole and Jeanne & Terry. I haven’t seen this many movies in a long time. I remember when this kind of thing used to be the normal state of affairs and it felt good to see a […]

Neither romantic nor a comedy, but my third movie of the weekend. I’m not really sure why the critics are trashing this movie, it’s actuaqlly pretty good. Maybe they, are action movied out this summer like the rest of the audience that isn’t paying to see it, or maybe it’s because it went more for […]
