He did, too.
Do revisit the novel, as I personally found it to be a grabbing read.
Pt 2 opens with Norman encountering a nun whom he constantly refers to as a penguin. For whatever reason, the psycho-killer train of thought revolving around a penguin cracked me up.

I went to see Insidious a few weeks ago. It was a bit jumpy till half way through, the 2nd half was too cliché-d. When the lights are turned on, the element of surprise kind of vanishes.
Hangover Part II was okay, but I didn't really think most of it was that laugh out funny apart from the end credits scenes.

I loved that movie. A movie of the year contender(not talking Oscars, just personal taste). The film is a breath of fresh air in this era of remakes/sequels.
Since no one else has mentioned this film, I'll put the rest of this post in a spoiler....

The Silent House- Foreign film with almost no budget and supposedly shot in one take. A bit reminiscent of films like Paranormal Activity but was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. It is slow at times and there are scenes where there's almost no sound. It keeps you intrigued though as you want to find out what's going on in this house. The twist comes out of left field and while it works, it contradicts things that happened earlier in the film. It's also based on a true story that happened in the 1940s. Should download this or watch it on Netflix.
There's gonna be a bullshit American remake of this. I'll pass.

Red White & Blue- GREAT film. About a young promiscuous woman with HIV and these guys she meets. One wants to be her friend and develops a platonic friendship with her. When the shit eventually hits the fan, to say this guy gets pissed off would be the understatement of the decade. The film moves at a slow pace but that makes the third act even more shocking. Cant believe this film didn't get more attention last year.

Victim(2010)- I loved this. Was glued to the screen the entire time. A doctor and his male friend/companion kidnap a young guy and keep him locked in the basement so they can transform him into a woman so he can replace the doctor's dead daughter. You immediately wonder why they didn't just kidnap a woman but this question is answered when the twist comes.

Re: Most Recent Movie You've Seen
I saw X-Men: First Class yesterday. It was damn good, right up there with X2 as the best X-Men movie. Fassbender and McAvoy both gave great performances.
Saw it last week and thought it was a good film. I'd add in Kevin Bacon too in the great acting performances category. Too bad I didn't care for the rest of the X-Men outside of the main two. I don't think they were given enough material or the actors just weren't very good. January Jones is awful. I've seen two films with her in them this year and she was very bland in both of them.
Oh yeah, the cameo was very cool and all of the people in the theater cracked up when they saw it.

I'm glad you mentioned this film. It was available to download and I passed it over because it didn't look too appealing. I saw your review and went over to Netflix and saw that it was streaming there and watched it.

Great acting by Noah Taylor as Nate.
Agreed and might have been worthy of an Oscar nomination.
I should have rated this an 8. One of the best movies I've seen in years. Have a few more movies I downloaded recently to watch and after I finish those, gonna watch this again.

Larry The Cable Guy steals the show. The military jeep and the hippie van are great too. When they played the wake up call, even I was yelling at the TV "don't you tell him to turn off Jimi!"
I also thought it was cool that Richard & Lynda Petty actually voiced Mr. & Mrs. King.
