I have yet to catch Casino Royale. Saw Happy Feet yesterday and it was really good...

... in a fuzzy sort of way.

International Box Office for Casino Royale

With $222.4 million worldwide, Casino Royale is on track to become the largest Bond film to date. The record was set by Brosnan in Die Another Day four years back with a total take of $431 million. If you have any mathematic ability, you can see that just after two weekends, this twenty-first Bond installment is already over half way there.

With nothing huge to stand in Casino's way the next couple of weeks, expect this record to be broken by New Year's Eve.

Who'd have expected. There was never a hype for this release. At least not as big as the previous Bond movies. If it was their strategy to garner interest thru minimal exposure, it's working. I have yet to see Casino Royale, and your post, vader, made me want to catch it at the soonest time. I feel like I'm missing out on something everyone's been enjoying.

just got back from watching apocalypto highly recommended great cinamatography

I saw Rocky Balboa today man i super love it. It went back to it's roots and finally there's a closure .

BORAT!!! ONE HELUVVA GUY!

slightly off topic...is anyone actually looking forward to Manila Filmfest?

some movies objectives are obviously more political than theatrical

i.e. the upcoming Lito Lapid movie starring none other than "Leon Guerrero" himself and his two sons

My son watched a movie earlier today and told me that the Film Fest trailers each ran for about 5-10 minutes. Seems like they already gave away all the highlights.

no decent movies till January

Blood Diamond

Awesome movie! A must see film!

watched blood diamond last night..i also plan to watch eragon tonight

movies i recently watched in no particular order:

Letters from Iwo Jima
Blood diamond
Pan's Labyrinth
Freedom writers
Rocky Balboa
Notes on a Scandal
Happy Feet
Volver


I recommend Letters from Iwo Jima and Pan's Labyrinth. But i like the former more - i'm biased for Japanese films. Clint Eastwood just gets better and better.

Freedom writers is just another typical Stand and Deliver, teacher inspires students story.

Blood diamond is a good story but doesnt compare to the other 2 above (Iwo Jima and Pan's Labyrinth)

Rocky just makes you cry. And its great !

Notes on a Scandal has Judie Dench as an old "dyke" and Cate Blanchett as a another deviant (she likes boys). Watch as Judie Dench exploits Cate Blanchett's weakness of character. A lot of humorous undertones in the dialogue - more of british comedy than American comedy - plus the intimate scenes between Cate and the 15 yr old were done in good taste. Very good movie!

A Night at the museum!! short but great movie!! really wish my collections will come to my life every night. hehehehehe..

That's a pretty scary thought, Jummel. Unless of course your collection is comprised mainly of 1:1 scaled busty heroines.

I'm actually looking forward to seeing Night At The Museum. The idea alone is absurdly hilarious. and the casting was perfect. Is it already out in theaters?

Babel

This film reminds me of Crash. Good movie!!! Recommended!
