[od0_ital]

I went to see The Wizard of Oz last night, as part of that one night only digital presentation.

Haven't seen that movie since I was a kid, and this was the first time I've seen it on the big screen, so I'm addin' it to th list.

Goin' to see Pandorum at a free screenin' tonight, and I'm on the list for Toy Story/Toy Story 2 in 3D on Saturday. And I have a pass to see Whip It at a free screenin' Tuesday night.

Two Lovers [B] A little predictable, but entertaining.

Just saw Surrogates, all in all not bad. But nothing fantastic really.

My review for Pandorum is now online at http://www.scifi4me.com -

http://www.scifi4me.com/scifi4me_review_Pandorum.htm

And I went to see Toy Story/Toy Story 2 in 3D today at the Alamo Drafthouse - South. The 3D effects weren't as good as recent animated flicks, doen with 3D in mind, but there was a new trailer for Toy Story 3, free t-shirts, and a ten-minute intermission with comedic Toy Story stuff to entertain the audience.

Up next will be free advanced screenings of Whip It (Tuesday) and The Boys are Back (Wednesday).

Mentioned it up thread already, but there are multiple sources for free movie passes here in Austin. AICN & the Drafthouse have contests from time to time to get into special events. And Jason Hunt, of SciFi4Me is workin' on gettin' me added to "press lists" for events, since I write reviews for his website.

Paid to see The Horse Boy yesterday. I've seen it before, since my best friend (and ex-roommate) edited the movie. Still, a very cool documentary that everyone should go see, because it was edited by my best friend (and ex-roommate)!

http://www.horseboymovie.com

Will add it to the list later.

I've also got three free screenings this week, startin' tomorrow! I'll be seein' Whip It (Tuesday), The Boys are Back (Wednesday) and Zombieland (Thursday).

And i'm definitely buying Star Trek in November and I've pre-ordered Red Roses and Petrol which comes out on Oct 13th. It has Greg Ellis in it aka Chief Engineer Olson from JJ Abrams Star Trek. It also has Malcolm McDowell in it aka Dr Soran... and even though he killed Kirk I'm still going to buy the movie. It looks good.

Oh and I can't wait to see THIS IS IT in theaters in OCT!!! RIP MJ

Went to see Whip It tonight, and I liked it quite a bit, and so did my friend that saw it with me. After it was over, she was all excited about goin' to see roller derby.

Got a free minposter and keychain, handed out by real roller derby girls before the movie.

I'll add it to the list later.

Tomorrow night, free screenin' of The Boys are Back!
