11.23.07	Cinemark Round Rock Discount 8	here's a hint: the "D" stands for Dragon. whew. Not gonna bother even trying to explain this one. I saw it at the dollar theater because friends were going and the title was D-War: Dragon Wars. I didn't expect anything and had a pretty great time. I also found the CG way better than it needed to be and although large parts of the movie make absolutely no sense whatsoever it was still easier to watch than Transformers. My favorite parts were the bum yelling at the ambulance and the old lady trying to walk through the fence. I also loved how they trusted in any stranger that came along and helped them whether they morphed into Robert Forster afterward or not. Although the best line is probably the little kid asking "what are you talking about" when Forster's getting into the way-too-long flashback-within-a-flashback to explain the whole Korean legend or whatever. I as an audience member empathized completely. Afterward, me and Jarrette were talking about how great it would be if there was a Weird Wednesday all night marathon that they didn't announce the titles to but got a group of hardcore weird movie geeks in a theater all night and then all they showed was newer films that fit the bizarre badly-made mold. Stuff like this, Redline, Omega Code 2, Next, etc. Some films don't need to wait 30 years to become absurdly enjoyable.
