This is not my movie weekend apparently

After the non-horror of yesterday's Friday the 13th experience, I thought I'd wash that from my brain by going to see MBV again. The Knit-Out is happening this weekend and since I like yarn and stuff, I thought going to MOA would be a swell idea. Yeah, not so much. There were a billion people out there and the lines for the free swag were stupid-long. Since I got there two hours before hoping to check out some knitting stuff before my movie, I had to kill some time, so I ducked into Barnes & Noble and read the Encyclopedia of How We Die. I headed up to the theater about 10 minutes before the start time. Apparently, everyone decided to see a movie this Saturday afternoon. Even though I figured most of them were probably going to see F13, I wasn't feeling it, so I just came home.

I still had that movie itch, so figured I'd check out my new Friday the 13th Pt. 3 3D. I popped it in, slipped on the glasses, suffering a papercut on my ear from the damn things, and pressed play. Oh, boy. This DVD looks absolutely atrocious. The old red/blue 3D has never looked amazing, but I don't remember everything looking like it was in doubles. That movie is not one of the best in the series, so the only reason I bought it AGAIN was for the 3D. I want my $10 back. The box set version of the film at least has a funny commentary track!

Things got a smidge better later. I watched My Name is Bruce. This is not a good movie, but I'd rather watch it on a constant loop for 24 hours rather than sit through Friday the 13th the redux even one more time. Oh, I'm sure there will be a special uncut DVD edition that comes out, but I think I might even pass on that because it would require at least another 2 hours of footage to make it worthwhile and I'll have none of that. Oh, look at me! Complaining about F13 again.

So back to Bruce. Again, not a great flick, but it is funny and well, it's Bruce Campbell and even with his paunch he's still dreamy. At no point was I bored nor was I ambivalent about any of the characters. Hell, it even had better kills (even it they were kind of all the same) than F13. Can you tell I'm really mad about that movie? Not Zombie's Halloween mad, but still mad.
