Yeah, I wasn't especially impressed either.  Seems like both Spielberg and Abrams are just playing to their past successes, with all of the lack of originality that it implies.

Watched "The Greatest Movie Ever Sold" last night. Not as good as I hoped. It lacked any kind of edge, and it seemed, to me, anyway, to not have much of an actual angle. Though, the one part when they showed a country that banned all public advertisements (for the life of me, can't remember which country, ATM) was really cool. Sort of surreal to see what a city ACTUALLY looks like underneath all the billboards.

Also, broke out "Shaolin Soccer" the other day for the first time in a while. Great movie. Good times.

Watched a whole bunch of films by a Finnish guy called Aki Kaurismaki and they were all about people getting laid off in tough times. All of them.

They would be depressing if they didn't each have a positive message.

That sounds pretty much what I'd expect from Finland.  Tough times and depression.  And vodka.  Perhaps the occasional beserk Russian.

Anything in particular you'd recommend?

I enjoyed Drifting Clouds, Ariel, and The Man Without a Past the most.

So I just watched Event Horizon.
I didn't find it scary or disturbing at all. I think it's because I saw this before I watched the movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmzYR4IQ_kM
My shit list: Stephen Harper, anarchists that complain about taxes instead of institutionalized torture, those people walking, anyone who lets a single aspect of themselves define their entire personality, salesmen that don't smoke pipes, Fredericton New Brunswick, bigots, philosophy majors, my nemesis, pirates that don't do anything, criminals without class, sociopaths, narcissists, furries, juggalos, foes.
