I saw Napoleon Dynamite last night. Brilliance. Not only because the script/casting was so perfect, but on principle. Too many comedy movies these days are fronting flashy actors and trying too hard. But this is just good, wholesome, stupid humor. Brilliance.
I also saw Alien Vs Predator today. Blatant cash in, of course. Cliche ridden plot. No character developement, for the most part. If you don't ask many questions, it's good sci-fi action fun. Well designed action scenes. But the aliens, god. They were made freaking invincible. AFTER the fact they only took around 10 minutes to grow in a host, and another 10 to grow to full size. *****spoilers***** For Christ's sake, one freaking Alien that went through a massive beating killed two of the three predators there. WTF? *****/spoilers***** Watch it for the action. Much like Freddy Vs Jason.
Oh, and they didn't try to create a new breed of aliens to fight, thankfully.
