<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Chronicles of Riddick - handedly one of the worst action movies since XXX and a waste of time and money
Bubba Ho-tep - wonderful, brilliant, and an absolute joy to watch. Pre-ordered the DVD after seeing in my local indie theatre
Spiderman 2 - excellent, a great sequel to the first one (I loved the first one) and as good, like another chapter in a book (or another comic). Raimi really knows his stuff and has done a wonderful job of keeping the essense of the old stories in tact and keeping the human part of the story at the forefront
Farenheit 9/11 - great film. A docu-op-ed that really opens the eyes of those who blindly trust their leaders and showing them what they're really all about: power and money (the latter leads to the former). Everyone who is even thinking of voting should see this film if you ever expect to get both sides of the arguement. For the opposite side (ie. not Moore's), just pick up a newspaper or watch your evening news. The best thing about this film is all of the copycat docu-op-eds that are coming out questioning your leaders (ours aren't much better, trust me), so you're gonna hear this from many different voices (if you make the effort to go and see them). On a side note, I will be there opening weekend to see Michael Moore Hates America. I'm dying to see a well-constructed arguement that actually uses facts against him rather than just simply attacking him. Either his opinions and connections hold up, and you can truly believe what he says, or they don't, and he's credibility is actually hurt (hasn't been yet since all that's been used are lies and empty attacks to this point). As of right now, there hasn't been that type of retort/arguement, I'm hoping this film will change it (I know, fat chance; but I can always hope, right? If so, I gotta give it a chance).
Dodgeball - just a ton of fun, which is what most films should be anyways. It's nothing spectacular in the originality or story department, but it was well-done for what it was (a light comedy) and puts another notch in the belt of Stiller, who's really starting to establish himself well in the play-a-very-odd-guy-straight-in-a-wacky-comedy category. He's got a real gift for it (see Zoolander for more proof).
So, as you can see, I have REALLY changed my ways and seen the light as I've agreed with you guys on all movies but the first (Dear LORD that movie blows....). Hopefully there won't be a need for more "steamin' piles of cow dung" in the future :-)</div>
