Saw many movies on the planes to and from Oz

Saw many movies on the planes to and from Oz:
Twilight (Catherine Hardwick, 2008). I'd seen it in January.

Funny, I had a highly interesting conversation with a charming Cultural Studies specialist at VU the other day, who sometimes teaches vampire stuff, and dislikes this Stephenie Meyer craze. I see her point and understand her arguments, but I still enjoy the stuff myself. I'm just an overgrown teenager, what can you do? What is annoying is the way the thing promotes virginity, like those religious-right organizations.

The Dark Knight (Christopher Nolan, 2008). I'd seen it in August 2008. http://georgesclaudeguilbert.blogspot.com/2008/08/went-to-see-dark-knight.html
Heath Ledger deserved the Oscar, even if he hadn't died.
Ghost Town (David Koepp, 2008). Charming romantic comedy. British Ricky Gervais excellent. Greg Kinnear not wasted as he was in Flash of Genius.
Four Christmases AKA Four Holidays (Seth Gordon, 2008). Stupid French title Tout... sauf en famille. Tolerable romantic comedy. See it just for Reese Witherspoon, who has been better employed.
Marley & Me (David Frankel, 2008). Tolerable romantic comedy. Horrible movie from the feminist point of view. Delightful dog. Funny dog moments. Jennifer Aniston alright.
Brideshead Revisited (Julian Jarrold, 2008). Difficult to forget the 1980s TV series. Loved the Waugh book before then, obviously. But this film is quite good, actually. Lovely acting by interesting cast, notably Matthew Goode (quite different from his roles in Watchmen and Match Point).
High School Musical 3: Senior Year (Kenny Ortega, 2008). Thought of Shona, Isabel, Nina, and Lou. Here I would tend to agree with my friend from Melbourne: some teen products are really not enjoyable by non teens (even easy-to-please suckers for US pop culture like myself). This whole clean-cut Disney teenagers-have-no-sexuality business is tiresome (worse here than in the first two). But I did find some of the musical numbers entertaining.
Doubt (John Patrick Shanley, 2008). Heavy, serious stuff. Not airplane viewing material, really. Of course, Meryl Streep is the best actress in the universe. And Philip Seymour Hoffman is one of the best actors in the universe (in the chameleon category, like Meryl). I should have watched Mamma Mia! again, they had it too.
