procrastination what?

well again i have forsaken my blog duties for things that are i suppose technically 'more important at the moment'...having said that i am currently studying for a statistics exam and most of my motor functions and thought processes have ceased to exist for the moment so i've decided to quit procrastinating [don't worry, we'll still unite tomorrow] and type up a quickie blog with the short version movie reviews of the last month and change.

district 9 - 7.5/10 snaps - enjoyable and a different kind of alien film. nice to see something new and innovative. i like the documentary style when it's not all jumpy to where i feel motion sick in the theater [blair witch project/cloverfield style]. not a bad theater flick if it's still available in theaters at the moment which it may or may not be.

9 - 5.5/10 snaps - cool up until the ending which i think they could have done a much better job with but i was pleased enough with the film. wait for video in my honest opinion.

informant! - 1.5/10 snaps - whoever thought up the preview for this should be shot. this movie is a very serious take on price fixing and i was insanely bored. i went into the movie thinking it would be fairly humorous...boy was i wrong. skip it all together.

pandorum - 6/10 snaps - actually more enjoyable than i thought it would be going in. i vote to watch this one on dvd.

extract - 6/10 snaps - pretty humorous, very nice cast. i think i was just in a bad mood this day so this one may be getting a little short changed here.

the final destination - 6.5/10 snaps - well it was just as much fun as the other final destinations BUT IN 3D!!! fun times were had by all yet i was thoroughly disappointed in the ending of the film. it should have been a way cooler death for those remaining...

inglourious basterds - 7/10 snaps - 'he speaks i - talian 3rd best.' 'i don't speak italian at all.' 'that's why you're 3rd best.' interesting film. definitely a watch on dvd, possibly a theater go if you're into alternate history films.

so that's it in the film department. i'm still working, doing biol 102 lab stuffs, planning a wedding, gaming, and trying to learn statistics all at the same time however i read recently that one should try to multitask less. i think that may have been written by someone who did not have a job and/or life.

anywho back to stat for the next 2.5 hours. wish me luck on my exam and as always...

enjoy the silence.
