			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The summer movie season is the best movie season because summer movies are the best kind of movies. With the passing of Inglourious Basterds, I&#8217;m officially declaring the 2009 Summer Movie Season over. I saw all the big summer movies (except maybe one), so I am more qualified than you to review them.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.thrillerverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/screens_feature-17481.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-337" title="movie critic" src="http://www.thrillerverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/screens_feature-17481.jpg" alt="movie critic" width="320" height="240" /></a><br />
Chronological release order OHHHHHH:</p>
<p><strong>X-Men Origins: Wolverine</strong><br />
Award: The 2009 Love Guru Certificate for Memorable Awfulness<br />
Yes: Parts of the film seemed like they were reaching for goodness, spinning cyclops-beam head destroying nuclear cooling tower, CGI Patrick Stewart<br />
No: Worst CGI effects and action in a theatrically released film since 1995, felt as coherent as a Sega CD full-motion-video video game, CGI Patrick Stewart<br />
2.5/10<span id="more-335"></span></p>
<p><strong>Star Trek</strong><br />
Award: Most Anticipated (2007)<br />
Yes: Great characterizations of Bones, Scotty, Spock, surprisingly exciting orbital jump scene, some great CG space battles<br />
No: Too complicated and faithful for non-Star Trek fans, too retarded and pandering for Star Trek fans, Leonard Nimoy&#8217;s dentures, Kirk is a fuck<br />
6.5/10</p>
<p><strong>Terminator Salvation</strong><br />
Award: Most Disappointing<br />
Yes: Sam Worthington proves his &#8220;worth&#8221; (LMAOMG), bad-ass repelling down stuff, CGI Schwarzenegger<br />
No: Christian Bale black hole acting, under-use of Michael Ironside, ending felt like the end of a M*A*S*H episode, not enough Terminator theme song, all the best parts were in the trailers in entirety, CGI Schwarzenegger<br />
6.5/10</p>
<p><strong>Pixar&#8217;s UP</strong><br />
Yes: Kevin, Doug, Ed Asner, adorable<br />
No: Can&#8217;t say it was worth paying $5 extra to see in 3D<br />
9/10</p>
<p><strong>The Hangover</strong><br />
Yes: Everything Zach Galifianakis says/does, baby whacking off<br />
No: Overall not that memorable<br />
7/10</p>
<p><strong>Drag Me to Hell</strong><br />
Award: Overall Funniest<br />
Yes: Hilarious and scary, lots of bodily fluids and goops, genuinely upsetting ending, goat demons<br />
No: Still haven&#8217;t seen Spider-Man 3<br />
9/10</p>
<p><strong>Transformers 2</strong><br />
Award: Overall Worst<br />
Yes: Action scenes more comprehensible than Transformers 1<br />
No: Shia Le Beuf, Beuf&#8217;s mom getting high, Megan Fox, old-man Transformer, robot balls, rampant racism, stupid plot, Megan Fox&#8217;s pet Decepticon, 8 hours long, looped references from off-screen characters about recession and swine flu<br />
2/10</p>
<p><strong>Harry Potter and the Half Bloof Prince</strong>ERROR&lt;Input:HarryPotter_Sucks&gt;ERROR&lt;Input:HarryPotter_Sucks&gt;ERROR&lt;Input:HarryPotter_Sucks&gt;ERROR&lt;Input:HarryPotter_Sucks&gt;ERROR&lt;Input:HarryPotter_Sucks&gt;ERROR&lt;Input:HarryPotter_Sucks&gt;ERROR&lt;Input:HarryPotter_Sucks&gt;ERROR</p>
<p><strong>Funny People</strong><a href="http://www.thrillerverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/congrats.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-340" title="congrats" src="http://www.thrillerverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/congrats.jpg" alt="congrats" width="185" height="195" /></a><br />
Award: Robert Zdar Award for Most Distracting Blemish on Actor (Jonah Hill&#8217;s fucked up arms)<br />
Yes: Eminem/Ray Romano confrontation, great fake Adam Sandler movies<br />
No: No likable characters except Jonah Hill (what?!), too many penis jokes (huh??!), so long that if it was ever on VHS it would have to be on two cassettes<br />
5/10</p>
<p><strong>GI Joe</strong><br />
Yes: exciting and well-paced action set pieces, Sienna Miller is really hot, surprisingly brutal action and acting from Dennis Quaid, two awesome ninjas, Channing Tatum on a motorcycle at a funeral in the rain<br />
No: maybe too many submarine&#8217;s exploding during finale<br />
8/10</p>
<p><strong>District 9</strong><br />
Yes: hilarious and awesome deaths via alien weapons, alien poop and pee, great acting from not entirely sympathetic main character, potential for interesting sequel<br />
No: &#8220;documentary&#8221; aspects unnecessary and redundant<br />
9/10</p>
<p><strong>Ponyo</strong><br />
Yes: entirely likable and pleasant, colorful hand-drawn animation, hot mom<br />
No: no real sense of conflict or urgency despite the world ending, baffling &#8220;mother&#8217;s milk&#8221; scene, some plot and ideas lost in translation<br />
8/10</p>
<p><strong>Inglourious Basterds</strong><br />
Award: Most Boring<br />
Yes: brutal action scenes and death, very attractive women, alternate universe ending..<br />
No: only 5 minutes of action in 155 minute long movie, the rest comprised of 6 or 7 long conversations each one involving a Nazi tricking another character into thinking they are being genial but really they aren&#8217;t, incessant and annoying references to film culture and history,<br />
4/10</p>
<p>I didn&#8217;t miss ANYTHING</p>
<p>Can&#8217;t wait for the rest of 2009&#8242;s high profile films! Goodnight!</p>
