    Hmm. I thought it was more suspenseful than scary. Honestly I felt the movie lost its way at the end, although I can't think of a better conclusion. Let's see . . . the last few films I watched were: -The Help :stars3: -Warrior :stars3: -Breaking Dawn, Part I :stars1: 1 /2

    Oscar Nominations

    I've only seen The Help. Viola Davis and Octavia Spencer were rightfully nominated, but the film itself didn't warrant a Best Picture nomination. I'm more surprised Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close scored a Best Picture nod. At least The Help received mostly good reviews. The same can't be...

    David Fincher's Dragon Tattoo movie

    Blu-ray release date for the U.S.: March 20th (and DVD, I'm assuming). I was hoping for more extras. Personally I enjoy watching behind-the-scenes/making of features. Hmm, maybe there's a special edition on the horizon . . .

    Books you love to hate

    Simple. I read some of his writing and didn't find it funny. And personality-wise, he comes across as someone I really wouldn't want to spend too much time around.

    Books you love to hate

    I don't know about that. Sometimes it's fun to just verbally tear apart a book (or anything else) that causes strong dislike. Personally speaking, I only "love to hate" YA paranormal romance. I couldn't care less about all the other books mentioned here. ETA: I lied. I forgot about Tucker Max...

    Not For Sale

    This one, I'm presuming.

    The Walking Dead

    Season 3 to span 16 episodes. This'll be fine if the characters have something to do.

    Greetings all

    This has got to be one of the strangest flounce posts I've seen on any message board/online community.

    Augusten Burroughs: This is How

    An advice/self-help book from the author of Running with Scissors. In the vein of other Burroughs books, it has a spot on my "must buy" list :D. Release date is May 8th, 2012.

    Dave Cullen: Columbine

    I haven't read the book yet, but some of the reviewers on Amazon.com have critiqued Cullen for offering superficial analyses and flimsy guesswork. I can't say whether they're right or not as I'm far from a Columbine expert.

    Mob Wives

    I hear VH1 is airing a Chicago edition of this series. I'll check that one out, although I feel Renee Graziano and company may be enough for me :lol:.

    Roger Ebert on why movie revenues are dropping...

    I don't mind noisy audiences if the people are doing or saying stupid things, but that's because others' foolishness amuses me. The chatter becomes a problem when filmgoers start describing what's happening on screen or revealing plot spoilers. Regarding 3-D, I never saw a movie in that...

    Literary resolutions

    Read more classics Focus on titles in my TBR pile Buy less books Save up enough money for a Kindle or other e-reader. . . . so basically, more of the same things I try telling myself to do :D.

    Would you read a series of books that are more then 30 in it?

    The Discworld series is pushing forty books. So far as I can tell, Terry Pratchett has still kept readers satisfied. It must help that his series lacks a specific main character. But yeah, he's one writer who can successfully manage a series of 20 or more books.
