Legend of the Seeker
(2008)

Fun, entertaining, sword-slicing fantasy.
So how is the Legend of the Seeker? What do people think so far? Looking at the comments we get a load of onestars from people saying it doesn't follow the books to the letter, people that can't understand how Goodkind could "sell his soul to Hollywood" (really... wow), and people that make untrue claims about inaccuracies in the TV-series apparently without having watched it themselves.

So is the Legend of the Seeker that awful? Nah, not really. It's a fun series, a bit heavy on the comedy on some occasions, and it's taken a while to get the story rolling, but its good fun to watch, beautiful scenery, good main actors that feel believable. It doesn't take itself too seriously and in my opinion, neither should the viewers.

In conclusion: The naysayers say, No! Horrible! Goodkind sells his soul to mammon! But I'm sure after an honest viewing without preconceptions most will agree that its a nice example of a good, old-fashioned fantasy story with all the sword slashing, magicking, and vanilla romance to make it a recurring theme in the rss-downloader.

Old School
(2003)

Best American Comedy Ever!
This movie has everything good about American "dumb" comedy movies and nothing of the bad. The mandatory sad emotional parts in the movie are kept to a minimum and don't detract from the rest of the fun. The storyline is tight but without taking itself too seriously. It is obvious that every single one in the cast is having a great time making this movie. Vince Vaughn delivers the best performance of his career, Will Ferrell is awesome as always, and even Luke Wilson who can be annoying at times in movies, is just great all the time. Warmly recommended to anyone looking for a movie to just make them laugh their asses off and escape reality with for a while.
