Knowing had one excellent fucking scene, a long take airplane crash. Other than that it was mostly poop.
That... was exactly what I was going to say. The crash was awesome, but the rest of the movie sucked.
Push was ok. Some decent action, and insanely hot Camilla Belle. The asian girl who could also draw the future was also nice to look at. I'd rate it above Jumper, because the writing and acting in Jumper was a lot worse imo. Although I did love how he used his powers for personal gain in Jumper. I hate the whole "don't use your powers for selfish reasons" crap that always infects those types of movies. Using that power to rob banks, live the high life, and get tail from across the world is much what I'd be doing in that situation.
I also watched Dragonheart for the first time in a while. I thought it was an ok, light-hearted movie. I thought David Thewlis played a pretty horrible villian, but enjoyed watching Quaid and the dragon (Connery) rip off villagers.

They had this on Hulu so I watched it about 3-4 months ago.
I loved it when I was a kid. All of the lead roles (with the exception of the girl) put on a really good show. Quaid in particular was excellent. It's not the best movie out there but I'd give it 7/10.

Yeah not sure one good airplane crash is gunna cut it. I feel like watching something recent as I'm not all that up to date with my movies. So you'd say Watchmen>Knowing for me?
For you, yes.
Btw, the more I see of District 9, the more I'm looking forward to this movie.

Oh, and Ocean's Eleven was great while Ocean's Twelve failed. It just seemed like the same formula, except inferior in every way. The whole Julia Roberts looking like Julia Roberts thing was retarded.
Ocean's Thirteen was better, but not as good as the first.

I do hope Raimi got back to his roots with that one, although if not there is always The Evil Dead which supposedly comes out next year.
He's put out some crap lately. I liked Spiderman 2, but hated 3. And Legend of the Seeker was horrible. It was like Hercules and Xena again, except without the fun camp value. Like Hercules and Xena if those shows tried to take themselves seriously and shat all over a book I enjoyed.

Oh, and does anyone have any info on The Evil Dead? From what I understand Bruce won't be back as Ash, which sucks. I can't for the life of me think of someone who could fill his shoes in that roll.
