I just saw Man on Wire.
Man on Wire.

Man On Wire is probably my favourite film of 2008. Really excellent, and I can't recommend it strongly enough.
--- Quote from: Dark Flame on PRF ---I saw an incredible documentary tonight, Man On Wire. It's about Philippe Petit, a wirewalker who in 1974 walked between the WTC towers while they were only partially complete, walking back and forth for 45 minutes while cops tried to talk him off.
Really satisfying, joyful, and exhilarating. Some sad undertones though, when the friends who pulled it off together reflect upon the times, and it seems quite clear that they haven't kept up much since.
Beautiful film.

its not new..... but PREY by Crichton was a pretty great book.

I'd recommend the book World War Z to anyone who likes the Zombie Apocalypse genre, and even to people who have no real interest in it. The stories in it are so well written that I had to remind myself on several occasions that there was never actually a world-wide war against the walking dead. I think it has something to do with the fact that Zombies aren't really in the forefront of it all. It's all about the victims. You could substitute the zombies in most of the stories (But not all of them. Some of them only make sense with zombies.) with any army on the planet and I'd think you'd still get the same effect.
Would anyone here recommend The Unborn? I wanted to see it opening day, but was short on cash and didn't bother. The advertisements make it seem like it's an actual horror movie, and that has me really excited. (When I say "actual horror movie," I mean as opposed to movies like Hostile and Saw that have been so prevalent over the last decade. The ones that really on blood and guts for cheap shock value instead of actually trying to scare the audience.)

What? What's that you say? I can't read it, it's all orange and shit.

Also, I don't know about The Unborn. I haven't trusted a single American remake in a pretty long time.
