Blade: Trinity
Pretty good action flick. Not as serious as the first two -- in fact very funny. In fact, Ryan Reynolds is in this one and hes hilarious. Story line is a bit dumbed down and Wesley Snipes is overshadowed by the other characters, which in my opinion is a good thing. Hes getting a bit old for the part.

Grail Code Broken
For 250 years, the cryptic inscription has exercised the minds of Britains finest theologians, historians and scientists, including Charles Darwin, Josiah Wedgwood and, most recently, the Second World War code-breakers of Bletchley Park.
But an anonymous American researcher was credited yesterday with the best stab yet at what the letters D.O.U.O.S.V.A.V.V.M. - carved on the Shepherds Monument at Lord Lichfields Shugborough estate in Staffordshire - might actually signify.
The answer appears to be "Jesus (As Deity) Defy" - a message left by an 18th century Christian sect Priory of Sion, which was forced to keep its views secret since the Church of England thought they were heretical. On first impressions, this rather perplexing answer may disappoint those who believed the letters pointed the way to the final destination of the Holy Grail, the cup Jesus is said to have used during the Last Supper. But Shugborough Hall was holding on to its hopes last night, since the Priory of Sion was the spiritual successor to the Knights Templar, who were known as the keepers of the Holy Grail.

House of Flying Daggers
Excellent movie, and very beautiful. Better than Crouching Tiger.

Very, very good movie with Jet Li. Beautiful. Not quite as good as House of Flying Daggers

Saw
Very creative and very brutal. Grotesque but still creepy. Well done, but poorly acted. I guessed the ending as well. Worth a watch, though.

Troy
Adequate, but kind of weak. You dont really care about any of the chararacters. Too long, too -- I actually wanted Troy to fall by the end.
