When a scandal strips them of their gold medals, two world-class skaters (Will Ferrell and Jon Heder) skirt their way back onto the ice via a loophole that allows them to compete together as a pairs team. Will Arnett ("Arrested Development") and Amy Poehler ("Saturday Night Live") co-star as their competitive on-ice rivals who vow to use their triple axel to the fullest advantage.

miller's crossing
Gabriel Byrne stars as Tom Reagan in Joel and Ethan Coen's take on the '30s gangster film. Adviser to a Prohibition-era crime boss (Albert Finney), Tom gets caught in the literal and figurative crossfire when his loyalties are divided between warring mobs. Mix in an affair with the boss's dame (Marcia Gay Harden), several double-crosses and backstabs and the Coens' typical blackly funny dialogue, and you've got a bang-up (literally) movie.
my favorite mob movie, and each time i watch it i think i like it more and more, slowly becoming my favorite coen bros movie. Lots of little stuff to pick up that warrants multiple watches.

beast with a million backs
The crew at Planet Express must work overtime to seal a portal between their universe and an alternate universe ruled by the gargantuan alien Yivo (David Cross), whose Earth-conquering plans include making Fry the pope of the alternate realm. Bender, Leela, Amy, Farnsworth and the gang are back in this tentacle-packed feature spinoff of the hit animated series. Other guest voices include Brittany Murphy and Stephen Hawking.
maybe more than a half hour is more that futurama can stay entertaining. has a couple great moments, mostly with zoidberg and david cross.

hancock
Will Smith stars as Hancock, a down-and-out superhero forced to employ a PR expert, Ray Embrey (Jason Bateman), to help repair his image when the public grows weary of all the damage he has inflicted during his life-saving heroics. Ray's idea of imprisoning the antihero to make the world miss him proves successful, but will Hancock stick to his new sense of purpose or slip back into old habits? Charlize Theron co-stars in Peter Berg's action comedy.
I don't get why every one was so pissed at this movie, i thought it was a pretty decent will smith/super hero movie. I sort of like the twist, plus, Will Smith gets drunk, that's pretty awesome.

my winnepeg
Guy Maddin's dreamlike biographical documentary is part psychoanalysis and part historical study of Winnipeg, Canada, Maddin's hometown. Poetry serves as narration to explain how the city's idiosyncratic culture has influenced the director. From lyrical ramblings about how the denizens of Winnipeg exist in perpetual "sleep mode" to fanciful reenactments of scenes from Maddin's dysfunctional childhood, the film comprises a unique allegory of life.
i do not know how seriously to take this guy. He is too artsy for his own good. Neat to look at, and a couple really amazing lines and the idea of him casting his whole family with actors and his mom playing her self is pretty funny. When he is actually telling a story and not just rambling it is very entertaining but those parts are few and far between. Maybe i just don't get it?

death to smoochy
Danny DeVito directs this dark comedy set in the dog-eat-dog world of children's television. Kids' show star Rainbow Randolph (Robin Williams) gets fired over a bribery scandal and is replaced by Smoochy (Edward Norton) -- a puffy, purple rhinoceros. When Randolph discovers Smoochy is having an affair with Randolph's ex-lover Nora (Catherine Keener), a top programming executive at the network, he plots his revenge.
i have a crush on catherine keener. going on a safari.8/10
lost boys: the tribe
After their parents die in a car accident, Chris Emerson (Tad Hilgenbrink) and his sister, Nicole (Autumn Reeser), move in with their quirky Aunt Jillian in her California beach town. Soon Nicole falls for a local surfer, who, unbeknownst to her, is also a vampire. Now Chris finds himself battling the whole gang of vampire surfers in an effort to rescue his sister. Corey Feldman and Corey Haim co-star in this sequel to 1987's Lost Boys.pretty awful. Corey Feldman says some funny shit and there is some funny gore. other wise pretty much as good as that buffy episode with the ventriloquist dummy.
