i nearly finished the list of movies i want to see created in my head a few months ago. of course, i still have to see bright star, nine (i'm a sucker for musicals. any plot is better with people singing in it) the men who stare at goats (the trailer looked cool) and possibly the informant. okay, time for an update:
the hurt locker. this is somewhat outside my range of movies (although i've seen and for some reason liked black hawk dawn) buuuuuuuut... it's directed by a woman. i'm dead curious. tried to ignore it but it made it on my must-see list after much praise from critics (ok, i learned that critics are not to be trusted. yes, i'm looking at people who gave avatar an 82% rating on imdb. you've gotta be kidding me) and again - war movie directed by a woman. this leads me to believe there will be more than ass-kicking blow'em up in the script. in conclusion: the hurt locker.
the girl with a dragon tattoo
there was another movie about a viking who travelled to the holy land and became a templar or stuff, need to remember the name. that specific movie was made by norse so yeah!
the seventh seal. i've seen the scene where the knight plays chess with death and i am hooked to the concept. reminds me of that story of etain and mider.
