^ You've watched five seasons of SFU in less then three weeks? Man, that's quite a bit. ;)

What? Its only like 60 hours total. 5 hours a day, it only took 12 nights.

I just watched DOA: Dead or Alive. I still can't decide who's hotter, Sarah Carter or Holly Valance. ;)

Neither. Jaime Pressly is still the fittest bird of that bunch. :D

Okay I doubt I'll be able to complete even 5% but since new years I've watched all the Blu-rays I got from Christmas to now.

So the list looks like.

1. The Fifth Element
2. Blade Runner (Final Cut/Work Print)
3. Ratatouille
4. Letters from Iwo Jima
5. Blood Diamond
6. Pirates of Caribbean: At World's End
7. Spiderman 3
8. Superbad
10. 2001: A Space Odyssey
11. Kingdom of Heaven
 
I said I would do this so a quick update,

I've mostly been watching DS9 and have 6 episodes to go in Season 1.

I also saw 3:10 to Yuma which was a rental. Not a bad movie but I didn't like the ending too much.

Honestly, Jaime does nothing for me. She used to be seriously hot (around the time she did Poison Ivy), not any more though. But that's just my opinion. ;)
 
I'm actively looking forward to participating this year, but this topic really deserves a sticky.

- Six Feet Under, Seasons 1 - 5
- Star Dust
- Terminator
- Independence Day

With the incipent release of My Blueberry Nights, I've decided to go through my Wong Kar-wai DVDs. (Well, except for In the Mood for Love/2046, which have become a New Year's tradition). Will probably do around one Wong film a week.

Just finished As Tears Go By, his first film. An odd blend: The film remains his only foray into the gangster genre; though the romantic subplot has much of the moody atmosphere one associates with his later films, not to mention a highly elliptical plot. For some reason the whole style reminded me a lot of Blade Runner; it's a rather atmospheric take on the then-contemporary, now-1980s Hong Kong. The bulky 'cell phones' that some of the gangsters have is a dead giveaway. Feel pretty much the same as I felt last time I saw the film: Interesting, and a good start, but not much more than that. Can't wait for his famous internal monologues to kick in, though. ;)

Also recently watched: Pan's Labyrinth, A Scanner Darkly, Renaissance (this time in French!).
