Bannan's Talk

Jennifer's Body

So the story begins in an assylum and a teenager recaps on how she got there, and the only reason I bothered to watch it was because Megan Fox is in it.
Well any way I diverse the story is about two unlikely friends one being the lead cheerleader and the other a band geek type. Jennifer who is played by Megan Fox covinces Needy (Amanda Seyfried) to go to this club where a band is playing but some how things go abit awry and Jennifer ends up going with the band somewhere.

A few hours later Jennifer reeturns looking like death warmed up all covered in blood and acting very weird.
So the band sacrifices her thinking she is unspoiled but unbeknowest to them they inadvertantly allow a demon to occupy Jennifers body and a spate of deaths occur in the once sleepy town of Devils Kettle.
Well I won't spoil it for you just incase you are as sad as I am and go see this movie, it was funny at times but the acting wasn't that good and pretty much the story line also. The only thing that was of interest was the lesbian kiss scene between Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail

comedy written by and starring Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin. directed by Terry Gilliam and Terry Jones.

Your mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries!

the legend of King Arthur (Chapman) and his quest to find the Holy Grail.

very funny take on the Arthurian legend, that has given me even more quotes... that I am sure I say far too often... starring the men of Monty Python. Cleese, Palin and Idle will forever be three of my favorite actors. comedy geniuses!

hilarious over-the-top silly classic. ♥

Monty Python Live at the Hollywood Bowl

1982 live concert featuring Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, Michael Palin, Carol Cleveland and Neil Innes.

Monty Python performs various material, including several classic skits from their hit series Monty Python's Flying Circus.

to have been able to see these guys live! Eric, John, Michael and the boys are in top form. hilarious and just plain silly.

classic Python. ♥

From Hell

suspense flick starring Johnny Depp, Heather Graham and Ian Holm. directed by Albert and Allen Hughes.

based on the graphic novel of the same name, the film follows Inspector Fred Abberline (Depp) as he investigates the murders of Jack the Ripper.

interesting story and a good cast, but it didn't really live up to all that I had heard about it. then again, I was slightly distracted while attempting to watch, so maybe a rewatch someday.

an okay flick.

The Motorcycle Diaries (Diarios de Motocicleta)

A brilliant film, well worth seeing. It is subtitled but I don't mind that. Very well directed, filmed, and acted. The scenery is amazing as is the people in the film.

Enchanted

musical comedy starring Amy Adams, Patrick Dempsey, James Marsden, Susan Sarandon and Idina Menzel. directed by Kevin Lima.

Giselle (Adams) lives in the beautiful fairytale land of Andalasia, where animals talk and everyone sings. but before Giselle is able to receive her Happily Ever After with the handsome Prince Edward (Marsden), she is pushed into a magic portal by an old hag, who is actually Prince Edward's mother, Queen Narissa, in disguise (Sarandon). after Giselle arrives on the other side and she finds herself in the not-so-fairytale setting of New York City, she meets divorce lawyer, Robert Philip (Dempsey), whose job has made him somewhat cynical about life and love. soon, both Giselle and Robert start to change the other one's perspective on Happily Ever After.

Amy Adams delivers one of my favorite performances of hers to date, making Giselle one of my favorite characters on film. she is funny, sweet, charming and just all-around lovable. the rest of the cast also deliver great performances, including the uber handsome and oh-so dreamy Patrick Dempsey.

to say that I love this movie is an understatement. comedy, singing, cheesy romance... so good! ♥

Law Abiding Citizen

Good movie that is, for once, not predictable. Jamie Foxx is actually likeable for once and didn't make me want to kill myself. And a little different role for Gerard Butler which is nice. Humorous cameo by the real mayor of Philadelphia. Us locals could spot him ;)

Fast Times At Ridgemont High

teen comedy starring Jennifer Jason Leigh, Sean Penn, Judge Reinhold, Phoebe Cates and Ray Walston. written by Cameron Crowe. directed by Amy Heckerling.

People on 'ludes should not drive!

1980s teen comedy about a group of individuals whose lives cross paths. based on Cameron Crowe's book, which he wrote after going undercover as a student at a California high school for Rolling Stone Magazine.

this is the film that all other high school films look up to. the one with the original dude, Jeff Spicoli. who knew he would grow up to be the Academy Award winning actor that he is today? a great cast of some of today's and yesterday's biggest stars bring to life the amazing script by Crowe, that has some of the best dialogue and some of the most quotable lines of all time.

great film! ♥

Pearl Harbor

dramatic love story starring Ben Affleck, Kate Beckinsale, Josh Hartnett and Alec Baldwin. directed by Michael Bay.

Rafe McCawley (Affleck) and Danny Walker (Hartnett) are childhood best friends and they both sign up as pilots for the United States Army Air Corps as pilots. enter the beautiful Nurse Evelyn Johnson (Beckinsale), whom both men fall in love with, and it threatens to ruin their friendship. however, Rafe and Danny soon find themselves in a much bigger battle than the one for Evelyn's heart.

call me a sucker for hawt guys in uniforms! tell me that I have no taste in film! hell, call me a big ol' girl! I don't care. I absolutely love this film. great cast, great special effects and an oh-so cheesy love story, that still makes me cry whenever I watch it, make this film one of my all-time favorites. love it! ♥

Observe and Report

comedy starring Seth Rogen , Michael Pena, Ray Liotta and Anna Faris. written and directed by Jody Hill.

the film follows the misadventures of Ronnie Barnhardt (Rogen), the head of security at a shopping mall, as he tries to stop a bandit flasher that has been terrorizing customers.

I guess I have been spoiled with previous Rogen gems 40 Year Old Virgin, Knocked Up, Superbad, Pineapple Express and of course the uber awesome Freaks and Geeks, because I just wasn't feeling this one. not that the blame lies solely on Rogen's shoulders. Faris and Pena were also lacking in this one. maybe it was the fact that there wasn't much of a script to go with. almost seemed like it was trying to force the funny and sadly, it failed.

a few very funny moments trickled throughout a less than perfect film... a film which has far too much bouncy testis! *shudders*

Saw VI

Another Hallween, another Saw. It gave viewers exactly what we loved in the other 5. Unmitigated gore and thrills. Personally I thought that the opening scene was the more brutal in the series. Saw VI tied up the loose ends and pretty much everyone dies :D

I think the series is over? I just don't know where it could from here. If they did though of course I'd go see it :P

Vengo

This is not a musical but a movie about music, while displaying the great music of Andalucia, telling a story of a blood feud between two families. Tony Gatlif is doing what he does best, a good mixture of drama and music in a documentary style. Recommmeded to everyone who is interested in music, especially to the ones who love flamenco.

The Devil's Rejects

horror flick starring Bill Moseley, Sheri Moon Zombie, Sid Haig and William Forsythe. written and directed by Rob Zombie.

the sequel to 2003's House of 1000 Corpses, about a family of psychopathic killers in the late 1970s.

watched the first 45 minutes in hopes of finding something redeemable in this film, but after seeing a woman have a gun jabbed into her panties and then forced to perform oral sex on someone, I just couldn't subject myself to it any further. sadistic, brutal and just down right disgusting.

love your music Mr. Zombie, but sorry... I don't dig this kinda "entertainment".
