I saw Superbad tonight. What a mistake. I was trying to avoid seeing it but I gave in just because it’s on the top 250 and I'm trying to see all of them. I’m just glad I didn't have to pay for it. I can count the number of times I laughed because I could do so w/ the fingers of one hand, if I was missing 3 fingers. I actually almost cried, not from laughter or because I’m a pussy and I found it sad, but because it was so awkward. I feel less uncomfortable watching girls get it in the face in homemade pornos. And you know what, that's just as funny and an hour shorter.
Anyway, onto a much better movie that I saw recently. I use the phrase "much better" loosely because this movie is driving me crazy. If any of you haven't seen the Bourne movies, specifically the last one, stop reading now. The Bourne Ultimatum is like an orgasm you're not sure whether or not you had. It's intense and exciting all the way through and then it ends kind of sluggishly but still in a cute way. But definitely not in the shocking and amazing way the entire movie had been building up to. If you saw them you may or may not have noticed that there’s a scene in the middle of Ultimatum that’s identical to the last scene in Supremacy. Leading you to believe that the events taking place in this movie happen in the middle of the Supremacy movie. I guess that’s cool, whatever. But I had recently seen the first two and there are several other scenes that aren’t exactly repeats but are still definitely eerily similar, like the way Julia Stiles cuts her hair in the same way the German chick did in the first movie, and how the car chase ends around the middle of both movies, lines that are almost kind of repeated and how Bourne ends up face up in the water, in the exact way Bourne Identity started. Not to mention the scene that’s obviously identical has some really subtle differences that are either sloppy oversights or intentionally different for some reason. The entire movie I’m thinking that were going to find out that either Bourne's gone crazy or he's in some weird virtual reality where he's reliving scenarios over and over with different people in them. But we don't. The reasoning behind those scenes is never explained. Other than the director really liked the first two movies and decided to pay homage to them by recreating every single scene. What the fuck? Someone needs to explain this. I don’t really understand why people liked it so much.
Stumble It!
