Fansatic argo man. Its a chessy super hero spy movie blend aout a psyhic super hero/jerk argo man has he battle a sexy super villian lady who wants to use a dimond thing to take over the wrold. Also argo man's superpowers go away for 6 hours after sex. To bad argo man's alter ego is kinda of a horn dog. Its chessy and the effect are silly but its bad but kinda fun. There needs to be some kinda of chessy avngeners type movie featureing super heroes from b movies.

so I watched hotel paradiso and guest house paradiso 2 days ago.
hotel paradiso is a farce-style comedy that is show on TCM here in sweden since times immemorial and is about this man and woman tired of the person they are married with( the woman because he works to much and the man because she let herself go about 5 minutes after the honeymoon or she was about 5 years older then him) so they decide to have a little bit of fun on a shady hotel owned by danny devito and a young H.P lovecraft, but because of hijinks does everyone they know show up and chaos ensures.
the ending is a bit of a twist and it got one hot housemaid in it, but unless you enjoy old comedies is this not the movie for you.
guest house paradiso on the other hand is a movie technically based on the UK tv series bottom where the main cast beat each other up all the time, the only difference is that this time are they trying to run a hotel at the same time.
this move got some funny moments, but you will probably only like it if you like UK comedy in general or have seen the show.
going to see wreck-it ralph tomorrow, so will post a review about it then. no ralph tomorrow, so going to watch something at home instead.

Sreamtime is a 1980s anthology movie but it looks like every thing was shot in the ate 70s.
The movie starts with two guys stealing 3 vhs casets and going to Sister/ girl friend of questionable profession and showing send movies. This bit is just a short framing device.
Story 1 is basically a killer puppet/ slasher film. Some guys wife gets sick of his puppet show not making eough money so she tell him it her or his puppets. The twit in this is not so good but the puppets are kinda creepy and there is a bit were a guy get killed by a huge plank of wood and a bit were a guy gets killed by a trash truck like the shredder.
Story 2is my favorite of the three.A young husband and wife move into this house.The wfe starts to see things like kids playing in there yard, blood on the banister and stage noises. She thinks she is going crazy. There is a pretty good climax and a twist ending I did not see coming. The best of the three stories.
Stroy 3 is kinda the weakest. Some guy gets hired to be a gardener by two old women. They tell him about fairies living in the garden. He tries to steel from them and shit goes down. Well it least this has a killer Gnome ( a dwarf actor in a gnome costume) so theirs that.
the after the 3 "movies" are over we see the guy is dead. So if you like b movies from the 80s that look like they were made in 70s England then this is your movie. Over all not the worse movies I have seen. The 1 and 3 story were okay but the second story was actually rather good.

Slugs a movie about killer slugs but not just any kinda of slugs mutant sulgs with theeth that eat people. The movie is your okay killer animal movie with a lor of gore. Theres a slug induced expulsion so theres that. The best bit is were these sulgs are slwoing eating some dude alive from the inside, they eat there way out of his face.

Godzilla revenge is a movie a bout some kid that has parents that always work and gets kidnaped and easpce into a fansty of begging pals with minilla. While it has the godzilla dream team of Honda and Tsuburaya its my least favorite of the clasic cycle of godzilla. My porbelms with it are that it is obviously targeted at kids, the english dubbing is god awful, the kaiju fights feel recycled, dont car for gabbera desings and i don't care that much for the human main charter. Still Tsuburaya's effects ar damned good and it least its interesting to know that all the godzilla stuff basically in a kids head. I only recommend it for fans of the series.

Yo Evidence completely rules because it spends most of it's run time as dudes camping in the woods with fuck all happening beyond rustling in the bushes and then it goes completely insane and the film seems to be coming apart at the seams with the last 20 minutes or so just utter madness.

I'm a classic Oz fan, so Oz The Great and Powerful makes me angrier than it probably should, but I think my main complaint is that the decisions they decided to make regarding the Wicked Witch of the West were just poor ones, and that they could've afforded to get a better grip on the camera, because there's a few scenes that honestly made almost nauseous to sit through. As far as everything else, it was pretty good and I really like how the China Country was portrayed. The China Girl was probably my favorite character in the whole movie.

I watched Seven Psychopaths last night. It's good, but very different from what you'd expect.
The trailers made it look like a super violent dark comedy, and, while there's a fair amount of that in the movie, it's more of a drama than anything else. There's also a strong meta-quality, since it's about a screenwriter trying to write a movie called "The Seven Psychopaths."
Christopher Walken, shockingly, did a great job giving a serious performance. He's still funny, but only when he's supposed to be.
I was kind disappointed that Tom Waits only had two scenes, though (well, more like two-and-a-half).

Leprechaun in the hood, while not very good its still fun to watch manly due to Warwick Davis's leprechaun begging always fun to watch. He usually seels the badness of the series and without him it proably wouldn't be all that fun.

Mr Frost is probs the best movie in which Jeff Goldblum may or may not be the devil, but it drags a bit when it's not focused directly on his character. Some of the scenes are lit with really dark blues that work quite well, but most of the rest of the film is this washed out greyish colour that's pretty offputting. Apart from Goldblum most of the other characters don't come across well because their actors aren't that good, but this kinda works to the films advantage since it means that the devil(if he is the devil) is far more charismatic and interesting than any of the shit normal dudes.

Godzilla vs. Space Godzilla is like a Godzilla movie but if it was made entirely out of shit. And then someone took a huge shit on top of it, because it wasn't shitty enough.

Bat man the dark night returns part 1. It share some of the problems that the comic it based off has. Like its obviously kinda intentional fascist sub text,the mutants are not very interesting villains, I dont like this robin and it make cartoon chacters out broad archetypes of certin kinds of people. But its got good pacing, art is better then the comic and the action is okay. The fight bit with bat man an the mutant leader is pretty brutal and reminds me of lucha jack some how. Only played straight. Not the best dc animtied movie but and I probably wont like the second half beacuse so far its like the cmic but got to finish any ways.
