I got behind on posting my haikus, but then I realized who cares?  I'm putting those on twitter, Facebook, and Letterboxd, so whatever.

 

I decided to update the first post with what I have actually seen and the score I give it.  If anyone one like me to go into more detail I would be more than happy too.

 

Today doesn't look that interesting except for the midnighter, Cheap Thrills, which has been getting good buzz.  I'm sure I'll fill in the gaps with some stuff, just don't know what yet.

Holy shit!  I saw Cheap Thrill last night and it blew me the fuck away!

 

I think everyone needs to watch it, but do yourself a favor and don't read too much about it before hand.  It's one of those movies you want to go into as fresh as possible because, FUCK, it's so good!

 

Anyway, I'm finally doing Your'e Next tonight.

DID YOU SAY ANYTHING?

 

I met him last year, but I hadn't seen him at all this year until then.  He was talking to Renn from CHUD and a couple of other guys so I wasn't going to pester him.  I turned around for a split second and he was gone!  Then once I take my seat, I see him again in the middle of the theater!

 

He's so fast!

Ok, let's see what I got here.

 

I saw a total of 24 movies.

 

15 World Premieres

2 U.S. Premieres

1 North American Premiere

 

I saw five documentaries

         three horror movies

         four comedies

         one movie featuring a big ass spider

         one movie featuring an ass monster

 

I walked anywhere from 3-4 miles every day

 

Every morning I waited in line 1.5 hours for SXXpress passes = 10.5 hours

Every movie I waited in line at least an hour for = 24 hours

24 movies at an average of 90 minutes a movie = 36 hours

I slept maybe 6 hours a night if I was lucky = 48 hours

 

 

Here is how I would rank all the movies I saw from best to worst:

 

5/5

1) Short Term 12 

2)Cheap Thrills

 

4.5/5

3)Maidentrip

4)Before Midnight

5)Twenty Feet From Stardom

 

4/5

6)Much Ado About Nothing

7)Upstream Color

8)You're Next

9)Drinking Buddies

10)The Spectacular Now

11)I Give It A Year

 

3.5/5

12)Spring Breakers

13)We Cause Scenes

14)The Punk Singer

15)V/H/S/2

16)Milo

17)The Incredible Burt Wonderstone

18)Zero Charisma

 

3/5

19)Evil Dead

 

2.5/5

20)Big Ass Spider!

 

2/5

21)Plus One

22)Holy Ghost People

23)William and the Windmill

 

1.5/5

24)The Wait
