had i written a review of the movie, i'd have spoiled it with the first line

As I've said before, not much spoils a movie for me. Except noisy people in the cinema, which we didn't have tonight. My son and I had the occasional comedy elbow fight over the arm rest but that was about it.

PS I've been known to read the last page in a slushy book before I buy it to make sure it has a happy ending. But I haven't done that for years. Honest.

Happy endings are the worst! Gotta have the loss with the gain... I like empowered endings, or endings that bring to conclusion a characters degradation. Like merchant of Venice for instance

Note only in a certain type of story are happy endings usually necessary. Satisfying endings, either happy or sad, are all that is required across the spectrum. I really hate reading or watching something that leaves you without any kind of conclusion and just fizzles away to nothing. Then I feel like I've wasted time and been cheated.

i love sad depressing heartwrenching endings myself

Why am I not surprised.

Cloverfield

Horror and sci-fi. AHHH!
Happy-ending-movie-lovers need not apply.

I don't know what else to say, other than I'll probably end up buying this one.

Cloverfield was not nearly as good as it was brought out to be. And the ending sucked.

Anyway, I watched Juno, the girl in its pretty hot, it was a good movie, but the whole falling apart marriage thing felt really unnecessary and tacked on. And I hated the message of "you can get a teenage girl pregnant, just put the baby up for adoption!"

You did. YOU RULE!
(may regret that)

Juno was pretty cute. A good little obscure movie, but it ended somewhat flat. I was a tad disappointed...maybe because it was so highly praised by the critics and cinema elite, so I was expecting more than I should. And there wasn't enough Jason Bateman. Poop!

ps. and you will

Iron man, it rocked! I'll second Keekers review, the tone was absolutely right, not too silly and with a nice balance of action. And the suit, damn I want one of those!

8/10

The suit was indeed a thing of beauty. The scene where it is all finished, painted and being put on with smooth, satisfying robotic certainty is going to remain one of my favourites. I still say it is art.

Top notch industrial design!

From the sublime to the ridiculous... Blades of Glory.

A few giggles.

I saw Golden Compass.

What an dissapointment!!

I really, really loved this book series when I was younger and absolutely admired the way
it made me think how there could be worlds beside ours, and it made me feel soul.
Iorek Byrnison was the greatest thing ever, as well all the other armored bears.
Lyra looked just the way I thought she would, and Mrs. Coulter was PERFECT.

I wonder what my daimon would be?
As I am writing this, I don't feel dissapointed at all.
Just excitement, I can't wait for the next episode!
I was laughing for the reviews I read before I saw this movie, critics complaining that
the end is "very disturbingly left open", "not properly finished", "cut down in the middle" and stuff like that.
Makes me wonder, didn't they do their research well enough to know that it is supposed to end like that?
That it will continue?

Serafina Pekkala and her daimon, Kaisa..
I had forgotten about them, it's nice to have a finnish touch in the movie

The teenager inside me is in love
