Not a big thing, but it really pissed me off when Sirius stood there for five seconds all surprised after getting hit with the killing curse. It's a ******* killing curse. You don't get five seconds to be surprised after you get hit with it. He could have sent three curses back at Bellatrix in that time.

Killing curse doesn't kill him I believe he actually goes into the veil before it hits him...and thus he is gone forever.

As far as I know, he was just stunned and fell back into the veil, from which you cant return.

I could be confusing his death though, I need to re-read them.

'Stranger than Fiction' seriously misused a very funny man, Will Farrell. With some good writers and directors it could have been very good, but they did not use what they had to its potential.

How many Harry Potter movies have there been already?

5.

There will be 7.

Although, theyre thinking about splitting the last one in two because there are important scenes that would take forever to make all throughout the book.

Wow...where have I been. lol. What did they do, release one every year or so?

I plan on giving them a rent...I also, want to see 30 days of night...not quite on their level but, w/e. That comes out soon as well.

[Turtlepower]

I saw Strange Wilderness tonight.

After seeing the movie, I think I would have preferred to see Meet the Spartans...

30 days of night was very good, if you ask me...very underrated as a horror film, very suspenseful....

[kalbears13]

How many other people hate this guy from Saving Private Ryan?

I heard it was just okay...so, I was just assuming most thought the other two were better. I've been looking forward to all of them for a long time.

haha...I think he was good, it was just build up so at the end he would shoot that German soldier...the whole film was him being a coward and then at the end he over came that...just one of the smaller plots inside the bigger one..

I actually thought it was great. I always enjoy when actors who are usually pigeon holed, go out of there element and do something different. Sometimes it's a disaster, but in this case I think it worked out great. I especially like the "I bought you flours" part, Ha. Very underrated movie IMO. In fact I'll probably watch it later on today.

Yeah Paul was the commander who got shot in the town. He had like two lines.

I really liked Barry Pepper's character,

[Paul]

Just got back from BB with 3:10 to Yuma, Eastern Promises, Once, Amazing Grace and Reign Over Me. Not enough hours in the day.

[M.O.T.H.]

Speaking of Barry Pepper...he's going to be the lead voice actor for this crazy looking 360 game called, Prototype. Good choice, imo.

All the big games are looking to go this route really...Dicaprio has been spoken to about being a voice actor for the upcoming PS3 game, Heavy Rain.
