125) CORALINE
(2009 dir. Henry Selick) 3rd Viewing: July 17 2010

I watched this early in the morning on HBO. Even though I own it on bluray. Too weak/lazy to get up and pop it in (Was in HD though, so no harm no foul?). I still think it's the best animated film of '09. Beautiful, funny, and.. disturbing. Ideal children's movie? Hey, If I can handle growing up on creepy films like RETURN TO OZ and LEGEND, then kids of today can handle this. Considered here.















124) AQUA TEEN HUNGER FORCE 

        COLON MOVIE FILM FOR THEATERS
(2007 dir. Maiellaro/Willis) 3rd Viewing: July 17 2010

an anarchic absurdist masterpiece in my book. Half of the audience I saw this with back in 2007 walked out. It was hilarious. I know "abandon all rational thought" is the tagline for Cronenberg's adaptation of NAKED LUNCH, but it fits this film so much better.
