Movies - Grant P.

my favorite movies.... hmm wow I have not thought about this in a long time but heres a few of them: Jurassic Park 1, FIGHT CLUB!, WALL-E, Big Fish, Catch me if you can, clerks, friday, the departed, bourne identity, the shining, Coraline, godfather series and oceans 11. Thier are a couple more movies which I LOVE but i cannot for the life of me remember the titles of most of them.

Fight Club: MY FAVORITE MOVIE EVER! This was the most well thought out movie ever in my mind if it's based of of somethig else kudos to the book or w/e but i've only seen the movie. It's my favorite movie due to the fact that its such a violent and weird based movie but the real enjoyable part is re-watching it after you've already seen it... And you HAVE To watch it multiple times to really get th full effect of it.
WALL-E: It's just a great movie the fact that the emotions in the whol movie are portrayed in the whole movie with little to no use of words is great and the great soundtrack really help this movie in the end for me.
Big Fish: Can't describe it just a gret movie with a really nice overall tone about it.
Clerks and Friday: Have a very interesting way about humor and both are amzing in this field although the sequals to friday suck and clerks 2 leaves much to be desired and doesn't stick true to the style of the first.
The departed, oceans 11, and bourne identity: all star one of my favorite actors and are all very well done in the own way.
Jurassic park: i LOVE dino's and just a great move very entertaining.
Godfather: Amazing story with a very cruel aspect about it.
The shining: Is scary as hell and is very well the most well written horror movie/book ever created.
Coraline: it's just a really intresting art style plus interesting story drew me into this movie.
My favorite guy flick is fight club but for a moment alone it has to be a movie which the title escapes me right now but the jist of it is two nearly identical magicias who used to be partners in an act are now at each others throats and are constantly trying to one-up each other. It gets t the point where they try to sabotage each other but after neither quits one of them resorts to science to try and win the long dispute. He discovers a way to teleport himself to another platform but what he doesn't realize at the time that eery time he teleports it clones himself and teleports either the original or the clone to a pad while the other stays put. The scene this leads up to is oe of the magician who is scouting his new "Teleporting man" show is sitting in the audience the other iss on a stage when his assitant brings out this monstrocity of a mechanical marvel. He sets up the crowd and steps in the machine. Lights flash and Foom he falls ito the floor and he appears in an upper bleahcer and accepts the mass applaud from his audience and the astonishment of his fellow magician. It then cuts to here a month later doing the same routine but this time it shows what happens to him... He falls into a container of water screaming and squirming around he slowly drowns as his assistant closes and bolts down the lid. It then shows the assistant after the show puth this case with the dead magician into a room were rows of these tanks are lined some filled some not....
favorite chick flick is Devil wears prada and the notebook.
favorite line is from the shining and it's "HERES JONNY!"
favorit guilty pleasure movie is sixteen candles/ devil wears prada.
What i really realize from all the time i spent writing this down is: Our modern day "Big Budget" movies suck compared to the actually WELL-Written movies......
AND FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO LIKE AVATAR -----> http://failblog.org/2010/01/10/avatar-plot-fail/
