Movie Time! Robots, Dracula, and more!

I added quite a few new movies to my 101 list this week! 
Here's what I watched...

1. Robocop
 I enjoyed this movie. It was a lot gorier than I expected it to be ( dont know why ), but it was entertaining. I particularly enjoyed the big military robot thing trying to go down the stairs and failing miserably.  Looking forward to the remake with Hugh Laurie!

2. Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein 
 So great!!! Legitimately funny and enjoyable. I love old movies anyway, but this is now one of my favorites. I like how Dracula has a reverse Batman thing going on...hiding the bottom of his face so you don't recognize him with an exposed face! 

3. Chronicles of Riddick
 Oh my gosh, this movie was so terrible. I feel sorry for myself for sitting through it. The only decent part was the race from the super deadly sun part, but even that I didn't understand how they would even survive in the shadows. I mean, if it's 700 degrees out, even being in the shadows it's wayyyy  deadly. Whatever. Just a really bad movie.

4. Over the Top 
I went into this movie with reallllly low expectations. It's a Stallonne movie about arm wrestling. ARM WRESTLING. What the heck?! So I was super surprised when I ended up really enjoying it. It's heartwarming and stuff. 

5. Sailor Moon S The Movie : Hearts in Ice 
I don't think I've ever watching anything Sailor Moon, I missed that part of my childhood apparently. ( I think I was an InuYasha kid ) It was okay...I liked the cat love and Luna turning human, but other than that just generic anime things going on.

Movie Time! Facehuggers and Xenomorphs


First thing kind of getting crossed off my list! Phillip went out and saw Prometheus last night with a friend, while I stayed home and had some alone time. Not that I wouldn't have loved to see Michael Fassbender ( that man is super attractive), but I had never seen any Alien movie and had no desire to start. 
However, after he got back home we ended up putting in ALIENS, the second of the series. Let me just say that I am not a scary movie girl.Yes, ALIENS is a sci-fi action flick, but I jump at EVERYTHING. I'm sure watching this movie with me was very entertaining. I liked it, though! The Queen was crazy awesome and creepy and facehuggers scuttling menacingly around the floor was entertaining. I don't really care to watch any of the others, but at least now I've seen a movie that pretty much everyone else has.Although Phillip did tell me the gist of the third movie, which I didn't care for. I mean, you're going to kill off two of the survivors of Aliens in the opening of the next movie? Cheap.
