A'ite. Checked out Nymphomania, both volumes, and I have to recommend it. Done by the same dude who did Antichrist, but it probably won't give you as much PTSD. Probably.

Catch-22. Was really good! Very funny.

Battleship.

Made for computer game in places but a easy story when you don't want anything heavy. Aliens made the typical mistakes that allowed them to lose. :tup:

I think that's hotlinking or something. Posting images doesn't work like that.

I like when good Aussie movies are made. There's not enough of them.

That is really well made. Gripping story - well cast and the producers of Tracks also produced the incredible Kings Speech.

Peabody and Mr. Sherman. Except it was only okay. All the unique charm of the original was effectively eliminated. Even if you don't give a shit how it compares to the original and judge it on its own merits, it was still only mediocre. The animation was gorgeous and the voice acting was great. The problem was the script. It was too contrived and the central premise, which might have worked as a running gag, soon grew tiresome in its seriousness and cliche-ridden deliberation. The film as a whole was not without its merits. There were some funny bits. More often than not, however, the humor fell flat: bits that should have been funny, had every right to be funny...were just not that funny.
Oh, I still cried at the end. But that's because I'm a sucker for melodrama, even when I know I'm being played.

From Up On Poppy Hill,

Story was to be honest insipid and hyper-sentimentalised, but the animation was so cool it deserves the credit it took.
