    "Cloud Atlas" looks like a good visual movie...much like "Tree of Life".
    I'll most likely go see it.
    Sometimes awe inspiring graphics can make up for a lack of plot or just a bad plot.

    Just saw "Tucker and Dale Vs Evil" on netflix. Pretty funny.

    Saw Cabin in the Woods, Joss Wheedon and Drew Goddard's deconstruction of the modern horror movie. Postmodernism wins.

    I guess. Hard to say, when you think about it.

    I'm not normally a fan of gratuitous gratuitousness, but here, that's kind of the point.

    First time I saw it, I vividly remember the moment that my shock turned into an understanding of what the movie was about.

    I read an interview in which the reporter asked Drew Goddard, who wrote for "Lost" for a while, if "Cabin" could be considered the true Lost finale. He said yeah, he guessed so.

    And when you think about it, he has a point. As unlike Lost as this movie is, it perfectly explains the Lost universe.

    Finally saw Prometheus, and I feel like I have a decent grasp of the Alien universe, but I really wasn't sure what was going on. That said, breathtaking to watch. I really enjoyed it, even without an idea of what it all meant.

    November is shaping up to be a very strong month. I'm eagerly anticipating the releases of Wreck-It Ralph, Flight, Skyfall, Lincoln, and Killing Them Softly. Especially Skyfall and Killing Them Softly...

    Went and saw Chasing Mavericks. Not a bad flick at all.

    I'm laser-focused on Lincoln tight now.

    Watched Pitch Perfect last night. I tell you, if you like a cappella music at all (I do), it's worth seeing. Genuinely funny at times. I would watch Anna Kendrick act any role, any time. She's wonderful.

    (Fellas, surprise your ladies by suggesting this one. A cappella pop for her, eye candy for you.)

    I saw Flight over the weekend. Having known family members with addiction problems, the portrayal was spot on.

    Just came back from seeing Skyfall (was off from work). Excellent! It's now in 2nd place all time (with Goldfinger 1st and Dr. No 3rd). Cinematography was wonderful and made good use of IMAX, you really felt like you were at the locations. Some globetrotting per usual but the majority of the story was set in GB. New but familiar characters are introduced or should we say re-introduced. Javier Bardem (as the villain) plays it very much in the vein of Ledger's "Joker"... funny and creepy at different times, and is definitely an upgrade from the previous outings.

    I agree with Kitty: I saw "Skyfall" earlier today with my three sons. Excellent movie, not just an excellent James Bond movie.
    I'm not sure where I will ultimately rank it among the Bond films, but right now I will say it should easily be in the top five all time, along with "Casino Royale", "From Russia With Love" and "Goldeneye."
    "Skyfall" isn't just one set piece stunt after another without a coherent plot, as much of "Quantum of Solace" was. Mind you, the stunts are great, but it is a plot driven and actor driven film. It gives nods to past films, characters and even gadgets while still taking the 007 series forward.
