Order of the Phoenix is always an interesting read for me. I absolutely despise Umbridge and the torture that she puts Harry through always makes me feel bad for him. It always makes me despise her even more. So I love and hate this book because I oftentimes don't like hearing about what Umbridge has done.

Old Movie Revisited: Sushi Girl. Did you ever want to see Luke Skywalker torture Atreyu from Neverending Story? Me either, but if you did, you can see it here. Not only do we have Luke and Atreyu, we get Candyman, Frank from Donnie Darko, and some extremely brief cameos from Kyle Reese, Machete, Frank Lapidus from Lost, the original Streetfighter himself, and White Power Bill. Of course you have to spend a preternatural amount of time in front of the TV to know some of these people, but hey, youre loss... So this is a Quentin Tarantinoesque type gangster flick that revolves around a botched diamond heist and the torture of Atreyu, after he gets out of a six year stint in the joint. And of course a Sushi Girl who is covered with? Anyone? Anyone? Thats right sushi... Yes, Stephanie Golden, she is naked and has a pretty decent rack :) Mark Hamill, er, Luke, does a pretty awesome job doing a 30's type gangster drawl, and seems to enjoy torturing Atreyu (where the hell has that guy been?) So that being said, and you like Tarantinoesques films, and don't mind a little bloody torture fun, check it out, its a pretty decent ride, like your momma! Filmbufftim on FB

True Love
One of the quintessential cult films since the term was invented, The Princess Bride is a movie that everyone seems to love. The characters are memorable, the dialog is snappy and funny and the movie just gets better every time that one watches it.

I kind of admire how Hostel goes from cooky teen sex comedy, to Oh God make it stop torture porn at the drop of a hat. Pretty trashy, but one of those movies that everyone talked about when I was in high school and I low key rated it whilst being an edge lord. As a grown ass man, it's tolerable at best...

This movie was almost torture to watch, in fact, I don't even think I made it to the end. I feel like this movie was made for a different demographic than I belong to, because I thought everything and the situations were just lame.
The only redeeming factors were Gal Gadot and Jon Hamm. Other than that, this was a boring, laughless stinker of a film.
  
If you are looking for a happy sequel to the first book then turn away now. There is no light at the end of the tunnel here. Instead everything that can go wrong goes worse than expected. There is more, blood, torture, and loss of love.
Maybe the third will be better and close out the series with a bow. But I doubt it.
