Out of the Furnace

Christian Bale is one of my favourite actors, so I'm pretty much guarenteed to watch anything that he is in, but the story looks great, and the cast looks fantastic. I'm super excited to see this one. With a cast like this one which also includes Zoe Saldana, Willem Dafoe, Woody Harrelson, Casey Affleck, Forest Whitaker, and Sam Shepard, I definitely see some Oscar possibilities in this one. The director is Scott Cooper, the director of Crazy Heart, so I definitely don't think its a long shot. Check out the trailers! I included both because I liked the first one better, but a new one was released last week. I really enjoy the music choices for both, I love Pearl Jam so that pretty much sold me in the first one, and who doesn't love a good Neil Young song in a new light? Enjoy.

Top 5 David Fincher Films

David Fincher is one of my favourite Directors, I have yet to see a single film of his that I haven't thoroughly enjoyed. If you've never seen any of the following 5 films you should do so immediately. The first 4 are all thrillers, mostly crime, but even if you aren't into that sort of thing, they are incredibly interesting films and should definitely be seen. 5.) The Social Network  I think some people would go into this film thinking its boring, but its actually incredibly interesting. Its quite nice to know the origin of something I use every day. Compelling story, and fantastic acting. It was written by Aaron Sorkin who is always good. The Wilklevoss twins are both played by Armie Hammer, Mark Zuckerberg is played by Jesse Eisenberg, and we also see Rooney Mara, Andrew Garfield, Justin Timberlake, and Rashida Jones. It was nominated for 8 Oscars, winning 3 for Best Writing, Best Film Editing, and Best Original Score. It has a 7.8/10 rating on IMDB  ...
