What Movie Did You Just Watch

[Spark Of Spirit]

No, I mean I don't have Hulu!

Poor Canada.

At least you have your free health care and legalized gay marriage.

[Spark Of Spirit]

As someone who is neither gay nor ever gets sick.... yay?

Well, at least you have Degrassi.

I actually do have the original on Netflix...

But Degrassi is really bad(really really bad) these days.  I still like the original series and the first few seasons of TNG(I think i watched up until season 6), but man is it bad now.

I couldn't find a good version of this.

[Dr. Insomniac]

Thank God I just watch Skins instead.

Oh, another movie Hulu and Criterion have for free this week is Three Colors: White. I watched Blue in the film class I took at campus last term, so I was excited to see the next part of the Colors trilogy up. this was more comedic and a little faster paced than Blue, but I think that was still a better film, since Blue had a stronger execution and more depth.

And now Red is up in my queue to complete the trilogy.

Never heard of this Colors Trilogy. What's it about?

Never heard of this Colors Trilogy. What's it about?

The Three Colors trilogy was made by Krzysztof Kieślowski as an attempt to make loosely similar stories based off of the 3 ideals from the French Republic, liberty, equality and fraternity. That's about all I can say right now on them though.

Rewatched Vertigo recently. 3rd time I've seen it, I think. I remembered how awesome it is, but because of the nature of the movie, it feels new again every time I see it again. It's just a masterpiece, and I'm not using that term lightly.

[No-Personality]

Disney's Bride of Boogedy.

[GregX]

"The Avengers" on Blu-ray.

I finally got to watch Cabin in the Woods the other day, and... I'm honestly not sure of how I liked it.

I'm not a fan of meta for the sake of meta horror flicks like the Scream movies, but this actually did get some laughs out of me and works better as a send-up to horror cliches. At the same time, the script is probably Whedon at his most smug and irritating. The library scenes in Buffy were cute a minute or two at a time, when used sparingly in comparison to the action and plot, but imagine a movie consisting almost entirely of them, with bits of action sprinkled in here or there. That doesn't sound as fun, does it?

But it also has some legitimately spooky moments, and the actors were solid, so there was good in this film. But I can't say I'd recommend it to people who aren't big on Whedon, like Desen.
