"This is the seventh feature length film I've seen by director Quentin Tarantino. I chose to watch this film based on previous good ratings I've given other films by this director and to better my favorite directors by algorithm listing. Inglourious Basterds I've seen all of Tarantino's films. And since I've become a fan I've made to sure to see all of them in the theatre. There are a lot of things that irk me about his style. Some of them irk me while giving me delight at the same time. But I always find the films entertaining. This film starts right out with a scene that was clearly modeled off of one of the very first scenes of my favorite film of all time The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. I know this to be Tarantino's favorite film of all time as well, so I wasn't too surprised. But Tarantino really has me being pulled back and forth violently regarding my admiration for this scene. My joy at wanting to call it a delightful homage and my disgust at what seems almos "

"This is the second feature length film I've seen by director Keith Gordon. I chose to watch this film based on previous good ratings I've given other films by this director and to better my favorite directors by algorithm listing. Mother Night First of all, Keith Gordon shares my birthday. February 3. So that's kind of neat. Gordon's first film I saw was The Singing Detective. I consider it quite a bit of luck that I ever did see it since I had never heard of it before and it was a handful of DVD pre-releases that I rented for free for a few days because I could when I was working at a video store. I brought the stack of movies over to a friends house and we got bored so decided to watch one. He remembered seeing Mel Gibson on some talk show mentioning the movie and said it seemed pretty strange. So we decided to put it in, not really expecting much.

"With the release of Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix, I am forced to listen to friends and co-workers and in some cases complete strangers bitch and moan. Indeed, even many reviews for the movie contain the same gripes, and that is that 'it was OK, but they shouldn't have left such-and-such out.' A more common complaint is the simpler, more direct 'it wasn't as good as the book.' This is unfortunate, because a perfectly fine movie is getting short shrift because of how well it stands up to a completely separate entity; the book. Time was when I would be right alongside these people, complaining about how the movie removed my favorite subplot, or didn't capture the essence of the characters as perfectly as I'd hoped. Nowadays I like to think I'm much more enlightened, and oddly enough I owe this all to the Harry Potter series.I was a bit late on the Harry Potter bandwagon, and Azkaban was the first movie I saw after reading all the book ...
