Have seen it, one of the weirdest films ever, do not know if it were uncut or not.
Sorry guys, no signature for a while, too busy with life. :|

SUPERSIZE ME: missed it when it came out years ago. Scary.
CITIZEN X: watched only because it has RONIN's director of the photography doing the same job here (yep, I'm that nerd, I know). Pretty boring, though I really like it when Westen actors play Russian guys that talks English with fake Russian accent (yep, I'm that silly, I know).

Wolf of Wall Street: great movie, fucking great scenes. the movie is long (3hrs i think), and that is partly because the scenes are pretty long, but the upside is that these scenes are often so fucking nice that once you get used to it you dont mind them taking a bit longer. genius 'safe dwarf-throwing'-discussion, great Fear and Loathing-style drugscene, awesome. very well done.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty: i fucking loved this movie, one of the best i've seen. then again, i am a sucker for 'rise above your boring self through the help of half-coincidental experiences'-stories, so maybe it is just me that likes it. - just checked, it has 50% on Rotten Tomatoes, which just tells you that it's not for everyone, apparently.

Wolf of Wall Street is on my list. I love Scorsese movies anyway.

SNOWPIERCER: been waiting for this one for quite a long. One of my favorite directors approaching something different (a comic book). Hopes were really high. It turns out to be his weakest effort, poor in script and characters, almost any trace of his style. Plus, boring, plain boring.

KING CORN / FORKS OVER KNIVES / VEGUCATED: other docs, part of a little collection on food issues I'm doing; the only one I didn't like that much is Vegucated, probably because after watching different docs and reading a lot last week this one just tells me nothing new.
CHICKEN RUN: very funny animation flick. British humour always cracks me.
BLIND FURY: finally found it. I remember watching it with my dad when I was little. It's kind of like a rip-off of Zatoichi and Lone Wolf And Cub, but I like it. Plus, there's a mullet.

Rutger Hauer is a badass. Blind Fury is cheesy as all hell, but I remember enjoying it in spite of that.

THE ABYSS: one of the few Cameron I hadn't seen yet. Kicks off very well, but I got way too bored in the last 30 minutes.

The Station Agent: a film with Peter Dinklage (Tirion Lanister from Game of Thrones :), playing a dwarf with a love for trains who moves to a secluded area and makes friends, basically. it is very non-Hollywood, and somewhat surprising in tempo sometimes, but i liked it :)
