Movie Curiosities

The online diary of an aspiring movie nerd

Curiosity Inc.

I hold a B.S. in Bioinformatics, the only one from Pacific University's Class of '09. I was the stage-hand-in-chief of my high school drama department and I'm a bass drummer for the Last Regiment of Syncopated Drummers. I dabble in video games and I'm still pretty good at DDR. My primary hobby is going online for upcoming movie news. I am a movie buff, a movie nerd, whatever you want to call it. Comic books are another hobby, but I'm not talking about Superman or Spider-Man or those books that number in the triple-digits. I'm talking about Watchmen, Preacher, Sandman, etc. Self-contained, dramatic, intellectual stories that couldn't be accomplished in any other medium. I'm a proud son of Oregon, born and raised here. I've been just about everywhere in North and Central America and I love it right here.

I Love You Phillip Morris

A sweet rom-com, with a twist.

The Tempest

TOO MUCH DIALOGUE.

The Fighter

Great acting and direction, bad character arcs.

Tron: Legacy

A noble try, a wild ride and a broken screenplay.

Elf

A funny and candid Christmas film, made to last.

Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale

A very unique foreign film.

Black Swan

A beautiful and disturbing film, carried by nuanced characters.

Miracle on 34th Street

Sweet, but overly simplistic.

Black Christmas (2006)

Every bit as awful as you'd expect, if not more so.

Bad Santa

The yang to the yin of Christmas spirit.
