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.

The Ghost Writer

A masterfully crafted movie with a horrible "fuck you" ending.

Precious

Don't call it depressing and don't call it uplifting, just call it amazing.

The Wolfman

An awesome werewolf and not much else.

The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus

Nice try, Terry Gilliam.

Shutter Island

There's a reason Scorcese is such a lauded filmmaker.

Sunshine

A wonderful movie, but easy to nitpick.

Crazy Heart

It's rare to find a movie as quiet, intimate and optimistic as this one.

Terminator Salvation

A mediocrity that killed the franchise.

Mystery Team

Funny, but not nearly as funny as it should've been.

Book of Eli

So close, Hughes Brothers. You came so close.
