OCD Hysteria: As Good As It Gets (1997)

Whenever I think of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder in terms of movies, Jack Nicholson comes to mind and his rendition of Melvin Udall in As Good As It Gets.  He seems to have his performance down of this pattern-prone anxious man, and is the vision of what happens when you get between the poor sufferers of this disorder and the pattern they feel they must keep to in order to remain calm.  The man makes you cringe when he throws a hissy fit, but makes it funny, too.


How would you like to have to go through something like this all the time?

Eclipse Trailer and Oprah

As if you did not already know.. The last Eclipse trailer will be aired on Oprah today.  Dakota Fanning is paying the talk show queen a visit, and is bringing the goodies with her.  Yippee!  If you have access to a TV around that time, I would watch it!

Schizo-Mania: Donnie Darko (2001)

It is shameful to confess this, but I am sure all my fellow movie obsessed friends have had moments such as these when it takes you longer than some to see a film.  Today..I..Syna..  finally saw Donnie Darko, and now I am a Darko-Ho.  Jake Gyllenhaal, will you marry me?!!  Okay, I am alright now.  This was a psychedelic roller coaster!  Perfect for fans of time traveling plots with a psychological twist.  I can certainly see why this has gained such a cult classic following.  The effects and plot twists were phenomenal.  Check out the scene below where Frank has a little talk with Donnie at the movies.  Creepy!





Contest: Win a Copy of Avatar (Free to join)

With Avatar coming out soon, I thought I would let you guys in on a little contest we will be performing this week.  It is free to join.  All you have to do is be a follower of both mine.  So become a subscriber or follower to join.  If you subscribe, make sure to e-mail me because Feedburner does not really give names..just where you're subscribing from.  Here is how we will play this out..  If you join..you get an automatic entry..if you refer someone..you get an entry.  Kindof like raffle tickets.  Speaking of raffle tickets, I will set up a donor button in case you want to do that instead of raffle tickets.  A buck a ticket sound fair?  By the way, the contest starts now and goes until next Saturday.  We will see where we are from there, and hopefully be able to crown the first Cine-Psycho on April 26th.

Remake Hell: Independence Day 2

Seriously?  You have got to be kidding me.  I was going through various sites finding all the remake possibilities we might see in the future.  I loved the first one..but it is one of those movies you do not necessarily see as a sequel.  They may kill it before it gets a good running start, but right now it is still in development and may possibly be seen in 2013 given the right writer and staff.  All I can say is if they do not get Will Smith, which they probably won't, it will not work.

Sassy Southern Mama: The Blind Side (2009)

While it is not exactly a mental disorder to be a "Sassy Southern" girl, you have to admit we are pretty crazy sometimes girls.  Sandra Bullock killed as Leigh Anne Tuohy in The Blind Side.  She made the movie as the tough as nails, well-to-do Southern mother.  You really see her letting her roots show in this one.  I highly recommend this movie if you have not seen it.
