April 2013 Movie Journal - Xanadon't (20 movies items)"Awesome that you saw The Shining in the theatre. The first time I ever saw it was in a theatre, which is probably entirely to blame for my perfect score rating for it because as you pointed out you ca"
Movies That Made Me Cry (Oh So Slightly) (18 movies items)"Big Fish? Yep, same here. Up? Ditto. Toy Story 3? [spoiler]The whole ending from the moment Andy arrives at the girl's house reduces me to tears & sobbing. Also that scene where they're about to go in"
Watched In April 2013 (33 movies items)"You had a very productive month! :) Glad you managed to catch Madhouse before it left & I see our ratings are the same for it. Cool. And you reminded me I still need to see To Catch a Thief."
Watched In April 2013 (33 movies items)"Witchfinder General is in my list too. I almost watched it last night but decided I wasn't in the right frame of mind for it. Then I attempted Holy Motors & wasn't in the right frame of mind for anyth"
Watched In April 2013 (33 movies items)"The only thing I can think of that would have made Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein better is if they'd managed to get Karloff to play the monster. But then again since it's a comedy I guess Glenn "

My Horror Journal Of 2013 (86 movies items)"Thanks for the reminder that I too sat through 3 Extremes 2. Ugh. Nice mix of horror films so far & I'll keep checking back to see what else you watch here (though I assume they'll pop up in your mont"
Underwhelming Cinema (22 movies items)"Seen 14 of these, and while our ratings differ greatly on all of them we do agree on the flaws of some of them. Namely Inception, Martyrs, Prometheus, and Religulous. Can't argue with anything negativ"
Movies the giraffe watched: April 2013 (18 movies items)"@VierasTalo - I tried to view it that way actually, but couldn't quite pull it off. It's entirely possible that a future re-watch would be more favorable though now that I know what to expect."
Film Journal 2013 (335 movies items)"Thanks! And your thoughts led me to seek out your thoughts on Dracula and Frankenstein too btw, so now I know even better where you're coming from. :) I personally think Bride is a bit overrated and "
Netflix Instant Project for 2013 (187 movies items)"@jedidarrick - It has, but it misses one of this project's requirements, which is that the films are supposed to have less than 300 ratings to be included. Admittedly I failed to notice that in the ca"
Music against lovesickness (Albums) (20 music items)"Always a pleasure (for me) to see a music list be someone's first. Nice to see some love for The Doors especially, and I'm also a fan of some other albums here. I like how you worked in some recovery/"
the giraffe's lists of lists guide (16 list items)"This has been in hiding long enough & for no really good reason. Some spring cleaning has now unearthed it finally."
Film Journal 2013 (335 movies items)"Your thoughts on Piranha 3DD (which I've long since lost the urge to attempt watching, by the way) have me wondering what redeeming things landed it at a 3/10 instead of a 1/10. Heh. Not that I need t"
Listal´s Favorite Horror Movie (118 movies items)"Narrowing my picks to 10 won't be easy, but here goes... 1. Night of the Living Dead (1968) 2. Psycho (1960, though I shouldn't have to say that) 3. Frankenstein (1931) 4. Hellraiser 5. The Evil Dead"
An exploration of the giraffe's movie ratings (55 movies items)"@Bml93 - Thanks! I've been sitting on this one a while trying to figure out what else I could add to it. Figured it was time to set it free. :)"

Christopher Nolan's Best Movie?You Decide (8 movies items)"1. Memento 2. The Prestige 3. The Dark Knight"
Stanley Film Fest 2013 - Wish I was there... (21 movies items)"I watched the trailer for The Purge earlier this week actually. Looks decent, I just worry they showed too much in the trailer. Remember when trailers didn't obviously give away the entire movie?"
Cinema Diary - Vol 4 E3 - Spring 2013 (38 movies items)"Glad you enjoyed The Fall and The Last Boy Scout. And maybe I'll finally get around to watching Wet Hot American Summer one of these days. I tried to watch it once but it was on TV with commercials & "
Stanley Film Fest 2013 - Wish I was there... (21 movies items)"Not surprised they're doing Room 237 given the location. Definitely some interesting films here, most of which I haven't heard of but might want to check out. I have little to no interest in the Mani"
A Complete Review of Christopher Nolan's work (13 movies items)"I think Nolan may be the one director you & I come closest to agreeing on all around. Memento wouldn't make my top 10, but it's easily my favorite film of his even now. I go back & forth between The P"
Poll -- Movies That Should Not Have Been Remade (39 movies items)"I'm having difficulty thinking of any that should have been remade. But I'll play along. 1. Psycho 2. Dawn of the Dead 3. The Day of the Jackal 4. The Day the Earth Stood Still 5. Carrie"
Watched In April 2013 (33 movies items)"I love Coraline too. And Clerks.. So Evil Dead will be worth me watching? Seeing some good feedback around here for it so far. I'm about to go watch Evil Dead II at the theatre (can you say EXCITED?),"
April Movie Log (2013) (47 movies items)"You're off to a good start this month for sure! And good to know that the new Evil Dead will be worth watching, though until I see it I can't say I'm looking forward to any sequels it may spawn. Hopef"
Movie Diary April 2013 (19 movies items)"Very cool that you enjoyed Django! And I'll look forward to your thoughts on Chasing Amy. :)"
BAMF April Cinema Journey (52 movies items)"Good to know Evil Dead should be worth watching. I'm hoping to watch it this month at some point, but we'll see. And glad you mostly enjoyed Creep. It definitely could have been better in some respect"
