WHAT I’VE BEEN WATCHING: MAR 25TH – MAR 31ST

Another week is over and with the help of a couple extra days away from work my week got filled up pretty quickly with movies worthy of discussing. I thank Douglas for giving me the chance to revisit one of my favourite Kurosawa films and also finally watching the sequel, and I forced myself into checking out the latest 3D extravaganza at the theatre. Check it all out below:

FIRST TIME VIEWINGS

BROKEN FLOWERS (2005) – a film where Bill Murray gets to revisit all his previous ladies looking for his supposed son, kind of sweet.
DIRTY DANCING (1987) – I’m certain I’ve seen this before, but I don’t remember it at all. Loved it.
SANJURO (1962) – Not as great as the first chapter, but Mifune’s swagger is enough to keep me entertained.
JANIE JONES (2010) – Sweet father/daughter story with folk music added. Not bad, not great.
WRATH OF THE TITANS 3D (2012) – Comparable sequel to the film from two years ago. Bill Nighy’s character is fun.

REWATCHED

ARCHER (SEASON 1 & 2)“The danger zone”
RANGO (2011)“I think the metaphor broke my spleen.”
DRIVE (2011) – “Where’s the deluxe version?”
YOJIMBO (1961) – “A truce is merely the seed for an even bigger battle, nothing is worse!”

THE COUNT

49 First time watches (11 from 2012); 27 Rewatches; 76 Total Films

This is my blog. There are many others like it, but this one is mine. My blog is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my blog is useless. Without my blog, I am useless. I must fire my blog true. I will. Before God I swear this creed: my blog and myself are defenders of my mind, we are the masters of our enemy, we are the saviors of my life. So be it, until there is no enemy, but peace. Amen.
