Crazy Pix: 09/15/08

Our little miss firefly has cornered the

market on Crazy Pix donations.

Sure it takes him a week to do one

hand, but look at the results.

October Movie Picks

My movie picks are not based on reviews. They’re simply movies that I would like to see. I’m not even giving them ratings. I’m just saying they look interesting to me. In the event I do see said movies, I’ll let you know what I thought. The following is a list of movies coming out in October that I would like to see:

In theaters Friday, October 10th

City Of Ember (rated PG) appears to be geared mainly toward the younger crowds, but still looks interesting.  In order to save the human race an underground city is build to keep them safe for 200 years.  Somewhere along the way someone had a change of plans.  Returning to the surface wasn’t part of that plan.  Now all of a sudden the generator that provides their only source of light is on its way out.  Now it’s up to a group of curious citizens of Ember to find clues and piece together the mystery that is their underground existence before the lights go out forever.  City Of Ember isn’t a high priority on my list, but it definitely caught my attention.  Starring Bill Murray, Tim Robbins, Saoirse Ronan, Harry Treadaway, Martin Landau, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, Toby Jones and Mary Kay Place

In theaters Friday, October 17th

Quarantine (rated R) really isn’t my kind of movie, but it captured my interest none the less.  A reporter and cameraman are doing a story on the local fire station in Los Angeles when the firemen are called to an emergency.  Once on scene one of the firemen gets attacked by someone or something.  When they try to retreat with their wounded officer they find themselves locked inside of the apartment building.  It’s a quarantine.  Strangely none of them can make contact with the outside world.  On TV it is announced that everyone was evacuated from the building.  From here the madness ensues.  Scary stuff.  With the help of the reporter and her cameraman, the movie appears to be shot completely Blair Witch style.  Think Blair Witch meets I Am Legend, right after the mutated outbreak.  Starring Jennifer Carpenter, Jay Hernandez, Columbus Short, Greg Germann, Steve Harris, Dania Ramirez, Rade Sherbedgia and Jonathon Schaech.

Sex Drive (rated R) follows the adventures of an 18 year old virgin that meets a girl on line.  When she shows interest he starts a trek across country to lose his virginity.  Along with a couple of friends this sexy voyage is teeming with lots of laughs, wild and crazy mishaps and mayhem.  Who knows, maybe they’ll even learn a few valuable lessons along the way.  It could happen.  Starring James Marsden, Josh Zuckerman, Amanda Crew, Katrina Bowde, Seth Green and Clark Duke.
