My mom and I watched Spirited Away tonight. It's still as good as I remember, and she liked it too. She was the one who introduced me to the works of Hayao Miyazaki in the first place. :)

On TV: The Hunger Games - only because I needed background noise for writing / making dinner and it happened to be on. I have the film in my collection, so TV version was just a "something on TV" thing.

In Theater: The Avengers: Age of Ultron. - Woot!

In which I attempt to be a writer.

[up] Same here buddy. It was pretty good, and I am looking forward to the sequel. Specially because now there is a new team of Avengers, anything could happen.

Jessabelle. One of those spur-of-the-moment redbox choices brought on by a cool-looking poster. There's a fair amount of cliches here, mainly revolving around a Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl and Hollywood Voodoo. However, Sarah Snook has a really good performance as the lead character, and the twist is sort of interesting because it makes the antagonist something of an Anti-Villain, which is pretty rare in horror. The main character, Jessie, was adopted by her father to cover up the fact that his wife gave birth out of wedlock and he killed the child: The ghost that's been haunting Jessie is that child, and all she wants is the chance at life she never had... Though she is willing to kill someone innocent to get it.

Be With You. This was referenced in Mawaru-Penguindrum, so I decided to watch it. Start crying five minutes in. Made the mistake of reading the trope page twenty minutes in. Cried even harder rest of the film.

I watched The Station Agent starring Peter Dinklage. It was the first thing I've seen him in outside of Game of Thrones. I was surprised to find out he's an American from New Jersey. To me his voice always sounds like he has a British accent even in a movie set in New Jersey.

I just watched Age of Ultron. I went in with rather low expectations, and the film entirely failed to meet them. The villain was completely non-threatening, there was very little in the way of a storyline, the dialogue was somewhere between bad and atrocious, and the action scenes varied from barely passable to sleep-inducing. The best part was the part where it was over. I think I'm done with the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The Sixth Sense for the first time.

It was really good, but I really wish I hadn't known the twist beforehand.

House Bound, which I am now obliged to make a work page for. 2014 kiwi horror / comedy. Very very good. It made real use of the comedy / horror alternation to make each part better. The mystery was spun nicely, with a couple of well placed red herrings.

5 stars. Go netflix or something.

The Matrix, on IFC. I'll never forget that movie as long as I live, as my first viewing of it marks the start of my love for hammy villains. And my first visit to TV Tropes.

Mad Max: Fury Road, at the Glasgow Imax. Awe inspiring movie. Best action film of the year for me.

Louis C.K. - "Hilarious". This was pretty funny. I might start watching stand up specials before bed more often because 1) I happen to have a bunch of them on my netflix already, and 2) unlike with watching movies, you can get distracted by facebook notifications on your phone and still follow what's going on.

Where Eagles Dare, with Mary Ure, Ingrid Pitt, Richard Burton, Michael Hordern and Clint Eastwood. Still one of the best war movies ever made.

Life of Pi. It was pretty boring until it got to the Pi-being-with-a-bunch-of-animals-on-a-boat part.

Most of the 1999 version of "The Mummy". Still holds up to this day. Even though the version shown was the "cut to ribbons by censorship early evening ITV 2" thingy.

Return Of The Dragon one of the only films where Bruce plays a comedy character, and fights Chuck Norris.

Treats death with more respect then many films do, it's a big deal here. As was it during Chinese Connection.

Mad Max: Fury Road. Excellent film.

Somehow you know that the time is right.

Mad Max - the original one, having seen Fury Road and only knowing things about the others through Pop-Cultural Osmosis. There's the Early-Installment Weirdness of the setting being 20 Minutes into the Future and therefor being not so much post-apocalyptic as mid-apocalyptic, but that kind of made it feel more unique than it might have otherwise. And it definitely looks and feels low-budget, but that kind of adds to the whole grimy, society-on-the-verge-of-collapse thing.

Jackie Brown. First time I had watched it, funnily enough. Was good film, and pretty much lived up to the hype.
