The Day the Earth Stood Still
A classic sci-fi movie that I hadn't seen since I was a little kid. I was actually reminded of it by an event in Superman Returns that is borrowed straight from this movie. So when I saw that Netflix had it available as a "Watch Now" movie, I downloaded it. I expected to be bored by it, figuring it wouldn't stand up to my memory of it. But no, it was actually really good!
Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room
Another Netflix "Watch Now" movie, this one a documentary about the rise and fall of Enron. This was a spectacularly engrosing film, I was both impressed and disgusted to see such diabolical scheming. And then I couldn't help but feel the stress that Skilling must have felt when the whole thing collapsed onto itself. I highly recommend this movie if you're in the mood for a documentary.
Donnie Darko: Director's Cut
This is a pretty cool/weird movie in the vein of 12 Monkeys. I had seen the original version before, but I rented it again to show it to Kara. From my memory of the original, I'd say I prefer it over the director's cut. The stuff that was added in the DC made it easier to figure out what was going on, but a lot of the material felt crammed in there and it didn't really fit... I'd say watch the original, but the director's cut is still pretty good.
I totally agree with the enron film, surprisingly engrossing....crazy stuff.
Dang, the day the earth stood still actually sounds really familiar, but I can't recall its details at all...
It sounds like something I might have to actually rent though..
Oh, by the way dude..
