What movies have you seen lately?

[LadiesMan217]

Had a thread like this one the old forums. It's, basically, you review/rate the movie/movies you last saw.

I'll go first...

I saw Ringu a few days ago, which is the japanese movie the horror movie The Ring is based on. I actually prefer this version. Director Hideo Nakata is really good at creating a creepy mood. Some genuine scary sequences too.

Last night I saw Joel Schumacher's Tigerland which was surprisingly good considering the guy who directed one of the worst, most annoying movies of all time is behind the camera. However, it's not one of the best war flicks I've seen but it's a different take on the war in Vietnam so I thought it was interesting.

Iv been doing this thing lately where i'm going through all the creative screenwriters magazine podcasts from oldest to newest. So starting with "the island" their first one and working my way up. So i watch the movie then listen to the podcast then watch the movie again, so in the past 4 days iv watched these films.

For podcast
The island -again (This is one of my favorite movies of all time, everybody here has seen it I’m sure, so i wont write much other than i love it)

Fantastic 4 - first time (I have mixed feelings about this. The story was well crafted and i like the direction they went with the tone and the characters, making them
kind of a dysfunctional family with comedy mixed in instead of choosing to go a more serious tone with the movie. But on the other side, comic books are very difficult to translate to film and not have it come across cheesy or corny and i think there where a couple things that where a little cheesy looking (like the special effects for the stretching man). But that’s not really anybody's fault, that’s just a bad side effect of that specific special ability has, working well on paper but not as well on screen IMO.)

four brothers - again (i liked this movie. the story design kept me interested pretty much the entire movie)

thumbsuckers - first time (this movie was kool, its a very low key subtle comedy with a nice overall theme of "We all have flaws and you shouldn’t be ashamed of them". Its sort of got the tone of science of sleep, royal tanabaums and other movies like that.


In theater for fun
Halloween - first time ( I'm not going to comment on this one because I’m not a huge fan of the genre. I think people who like horror movies might like it.)

transformers - again (lol, do i really need to comment on this one here :P lol)

Superbad - first time (really really funny, i enjoyed this one.)

Guys who have been around for about a year or so know this is comming... but, The Departed anyone... see it... then see it again... then bow at Marty's feet.

[uraydo]

The Godfather- a good movie (I say this being half Italian). It reminded me a lot of my family's wedding and get togethers (and before any one says anything, the only family business we have is a plumbing and heating one). but like most movies in this genre, I can't help but feel guilty for wanting bad people to come out on top.

[devonnewberry]

Death Sentence - a mixed bag, 5/10.
Resurrecting the Champ - terrific performances Josh Hartnett and Sam Jackson. I loved this film

Transformers. 4 times now, hope to see it again in Imax.

Forbidden Planet. Got to see it at a midnight special at a local theater, first time on the big screen, a classic.

Stardust. Pretty cool.

300. Awesome!

3:10 to Yuma

Great action, good story. Crowe is fun to watch. You guys will love it.

[sora]

In theaters

Transformers - seen 11 times already.
Oceans 13 - 35 miles from Hoover Dam!
Pokémon the movie 10th Dialga vs. Palkia vs. Darkrai - at the request of my children. A good action and story for a family movie.

After we've seen Transformers, my daughter said "I wish Bumblebee were my pokémon!" Sure, Pikachu has racing stripes too and once NINTENDO had a Pikachu VW Beetle...:D

Digimon pwns Pokémon.


Also, How can you say Pokémon is family friendly programing? It glorifies cock fights, dog fights and any other immoral sport where an animal is abused for our enjoyment.

If you can't see the sarcasm in this post you are blind.

but seriously Digimon FTW

I'm not at liberty to compare Digimon (BANDAI) with Pokémon (NINTENDO). Both of them are fine. ;)

Live Free or Die Hard: John MacClane is back to kick some asses. 8,5/10

[LadiesMan217]

Black Hawk Down

Saw it again. It's definitely up there with my favourite war flicks. Moving and very intense. Ridley Scott did a great job. Amazing cinematography and a superb score by Hans Zimmer as well.

[devonnewberry]

3:10 to Yuma - awesome!
Shoot 'Em Up - it was meh. gotta like it for what it is

Resident Evil

Honestly...the laser part is the only good scene, and you can YouTube that. Bay > Anderson

[halofan1]

Here is just a bit of a review (really just a portion of it)... Got to make you wonder if Marcus Luttrell is wishing he'd picked Bay/Speilberg instead of Mr. Berg to do Lone Survivor... Haven't seen the film but its a harsh review (ouch, ouch, ouch and btw, would anything have made this reviewer happy I wonder). Who to dance with... Bay/Speilberg or Berg... oye.


The Kingdom
12 Sep 2007 1:02pm EDT - By Stephen Farberhttp://pro.imdb.com/images/pro/tabprint.gif (http://printable.pro.imdb.com/news/hwr/2007-09-12/reviews/3) The Kingdom (http://pro.imdb.com/title/tt0431197/), about a terrorist attack in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, would seem to be another addition to the list of this fall's politically-charged movies. But unlike the upcoming Rendition (http://pro.imdb.com/title/tt0804522/) or In the Valley of Elah (http://pro.imdb.com/title/tt0478134/), Peter Berg's movie is no more than an action movie with an exotic backdrop. That would be fine, if only the movie were more exciting. It succeeds neither as a pointed political commentary nor as a taut thriller. With Jamie Foxx (http://pro.imdb.com/name/nm0004937/), Chris Cooper (http://pro.imdb.com/name/nm0177933/), and Jennifer Garner (http://pro.imdb.com/name/nm0004950/) heading the cast, the movie should generate some healthy opening-weekend business. But its long-term prospects seem iffy.

The shallow script might have been salvaged by more dynamic direction. But Berg (Friday Night Lights (http://pro.imdb.com/title/tt0390022/)) films much of the action in close-ups with a jerky moving camera. The film cries out for long shots that would clarify the logistics. Berg simply thrusts us into the middle of the chaos, which might have been his intention, but the result is a vertigo-inducing ride that leaves a lot of the action unintelligible.

The excessive use of close-ups undermines the strong work of cinematographer Mauro Fiore (http://pro.imdb.com/name/nm0278475/) and production designer Tom Duffield (http://pro.imdb.com/name/nm0240468/). The film ends by suggesting that lust for revenge can warp righteous American patriots as well as Islamic fundamentalists. Still, this earnestly even-handed message is a bit of a cheat. Given the heinous actions of the terrorists, audiences are primed to cheer when they finally get blown to smithereens. We might cheer more loudly if The Kingdom were a more effective piece of rabble-rousing.

Fuck that review. I've seen it and it's a terrific piece of work. The opening and closing battle scenes are hard to watch. Not because they're filmed bad (they aren't) but because they're gut-wrenching.

[alexsm]

Re-saw.

Crank: Simple, cheap and amazing. A Fucking Adrenaline Rush.
Pirates Of The Caribbean - At World's End: Great entertainment. Better than Dead Man Chest, wich seems to be completely unnecesary.
Night at the Museum: Nice light fun.
Transformers: Awesome, more I see it more i like it.

[alexsm]

The Ballad of Lucy Whipple: Nice TV-Movie. Much better than is usually expected in a TV-Movie. A correct calm western in wich Glenn Close performance gives a few extra points.

[Galvatron]

"Dune" in HD completely unedited although I hope my local theater called "The Egyptian" shows it there sometime, It would be great to see it on an even bigger screen.

[halofan1]

Hard-Boiled

Best. Action. Ever.

[r-type]

just caught a documentary on PBS from the Independent Lens series about photographers from Cuba (both expatriate and those still there)

very interesting documentary. various images depicting life in cuba, outside of it, before and after the revolution, etc. some parts told through the lens of these photographers (both old school and new school)

a couple of notables were images from an apparent Monument to the Presidents where all that remained were foot prints of the statues that stood pre-Castro. and of course i love the images depicting the antique/old school cars, essentially pre-embargo time capsules that to this day are still in use.

very cool documentary, recommended.

You won't be disappointed. John Woo is a genius.

[darthrage]

Just came back from the Kingdom

Good movie

Flaws - very obvious. Way too much hand-held and jerky camera movements. They were unnecessary. I can understand having it used in action sequences. In fact I didn't mind it during the action scenes because I'm just so used to action being directed MTV style but during slow drama and dialogue scenes and ALL THE WAY throughout the entire movie?? Come on. I understand the intention which is the put is in the middle of the situation but its just overused. And a bit too many tight shots.

You can say that it is a good movie because I agree that it is. But saying that there was no shaky camera that really didn't annoy you at times?......thats just being guilty of denial. A poor directorial decision on Peter Berg's part. He's got a vision but for The Kingdom, his vision is blurred.

Other than that, its really is a good movie because the build up to the final scene is worth it. This is some serious raw action in the tradition of BHD.

7 out of 10

Dude, Bay does the same thing.

[darthrage]

Dude, Bay does the same thing.

Since when does Mr. Bay have too much caffeine when doing hand held camera work for a drama scene?

We got hand-held camera work, throughout the entirety of The Kingdom. Its just inappropriate and annoying. I can still watch the movie though and try to deal with it, which I did and in the end, I got a satisfying movie.

As for Michael Bay using it more appropriately, remember the hospital scene during the bombing of Pearl Harbor? When Kate Beckinsale helps a patient with a hole in his neck, the camera shakes violently in the point of view of the patient. Now that is when it is appropriate and Michael Bay is knows what he's doing and more importantly why he's filming it that way as opposed to jerking the camera for the sake of jerking the camera around.

[Devastator]

Resident Evil: Extinction

Interesting to say the least. Its not what you think it is.

I wasn't aware anything was used appropriately in Pearl Harbor. Bay's fast cuts during the character scenes are what killed Pearl Harbor. Yes, fast cuts can work well, but when you're dealing with characters you need to keep it to a minimum. Look at any of Bay's movies. They all do that.

You're absolutely right. He does it well. And Bay doesn't cut fast during character driven scenes. He does however cut fast enough so that a non action scene can be made looking like an intense action scene.

And yes I agree fast cuts work well, but when you're dealing with characters you need to keep it to a minimum........fine example of this point, since we're discussing it - The Kingdom. Alot of character driven scenes, but just poorly filmed.

I liked Peter Berg's visual style when he did The Rundown. The subject serious subject matter of The Kingdom did not need to be "MTVed" out :rolleyes:



ok now moving on back on topic. I just watched Disturbia (again, on DVD) and its definitely gotta be one of my top 5 films of 2007. :D

Where do you guy get those cool pictuers to put beside your names?:confused:

I scanned mine from a book and cropped it in photoshop.

[KTMortimer7]

I just saw 30 days of night and could only say "bleagh" when the movie was over. I didn't like it. Of course I'm not really big on the gore part of horror and this movie had plenty of it. The other thing was that there was no plot (from what I could see). All you could do was guess...

bleagh.

KT

[OmarB]

I knew it was gonna such. I got sucked in (yeah, laugh) when my friend lent me the comics last summer and I really got into it but never thought it would make a good movie. Guess I was right.

[Devastator]

Happy Feet
&
Surfs Up

Good movies but not great. Good only if you really like penguins.

[KTMortimer7]

Yah, I agree. They were cute but not good. Had an okay plot line but execution was horrible.

That's the same for 30 days of night... Wait. No. Plot AND execution were horrible...yeesh. They didn't even get the vampires right! Aren't vampires supposed to be alluring and devonair? Still can't even begin to comprehend why someone would want to make that movie

*shudders in disgust and pops in Transformers* Ah... much better. Lol. :D

KT

[devonnewberry]

30 Days of Night was awesome. I saw Gone Baby Gone over the weekend; that was terrific.

[r-type]

Tony Scott's Enemy of the State - the technology was amusingly dated, but the idea of invasion of privacy is eerily reminiscent of what's going on today. Another great Tony Scott action/thriller.

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Quirky, but enjoyable. Don't panic.

The Wraith - Only in the 80's. Cheesy, B-movie goodness. Turbo Interceptor, enough said.

[alexsm]

Eastern Promises: Fine movie, not as good as some reviews say, but good anyway.
The Orphanage: Again not as good as some reviews say. Too much "i have seen this before" impression. Anyway a good and tense movie, maybe the best spanish horror/thriller movie ever.
Stardust: Magic. It's like seeing "The Princess Bride" again.



Resident Evil: Extinction
Well, this deserves a larger comment.

The fine things
-There's Milla
-There's Milla wearing shorts and baddas girl clotes.
-There's Milla kicking zombie's asses
-There's Milla kicking zombie's asses using her magical powers.
-Is not boring
-Milla rocks

The not so fine things
-No logic, internal consistency or any sense.
-The plot isn't stupid. Being stupid involves existance
-The script isn't stupid. Being stupid involves existance
-Russell Mulcahy is a "not so good action director"
-Is not very spectacular or exciting

[KTMortimer7]

30 Days of Night was awesome. I saw Gone Baby Gone over the weekend; that was terrific.

Eh.... to each their own. I personally didn't like 30 days of night but then it was basically the gore that got me down.

As for Gone Baby Gone, I agree. It was such a great movie!! Casey Affleck, Morgan Freeman, and Ed Harris. Yah, pretty much a given that it's a good movie. :cool:

American Gangster

I don't know how I feel about this one. I guess I went in expecting brilliance, but left the theater wanting. The cinematography, to some extent, was kinda flat and cold. I couldn't connect with any characters up on the screen. That is not to say that the acting was bad. Denzel did his king kong bit, and Russell Crowe played it straight. The cast was deep, maybe too deep than it knew what to do with. There was tension, however, leading up to how they were gonna nab Lucas and his operation.

Personally, it felt like it was all about Frank Lucas "getting his" and that's it. They didn't portray him with enough redeeming qualities to justify getting rich off of heroin. They also didn't give enough to Richie Roberts to feel THAT sorry for the guy for being so dedicated. Who knows maybe that was their intention, but it was lost on me.

I wasn't necessarily bored, it just felt like something more was gonna happen throughout the movie, but didn't. Or perhaps that the payoffs come too quickly to enjoy.

The production design was excellent, I felt like I was in the 70's. The cars the clothes, the locations. The music was great!

Anyone else see it? Thoughts?

[KTMortimer7]

Yah. I just got back from seeing American Gangster tonight (or rather this morning) and it was an okay movie. Urgh... I hated the needle scenes. They were just cringe worthy. Other than that, the actors, plot, and production design were great but I really thought that there needed to be an "attention grabber" such as more action. Michael Bay is spoiling me! :D

KT

[LadiesMan217]

Saw - I was definitely pleasently surprised by this one. I expected some dumb teenage slasher/torture porn flick, but this was in fact a detective story, and quite a thrilling and well-written one. Great twist-ending as well. Not the best acting though hehe.

[xXRavenXx]

I started a thread about the film Serenity, and still have to say that i the Best Sci-Fi flick I have seen in ages.

[alexsm]

[REC] 10/10

Spanish ultra-realistic zombie tale. Maybe the most scary movie I have ever seen.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1038988/

There will be an US remake titled Quarantined, but i strongly recommend to watch the original. There won't be US release (at least i think so), but i think i should't be hard to find with english subs. If you try it, use a surround system or headphones.

[Bumblebee1983]

Watching Transformers again. :p

Damn I love the movie. Soooo much better than the '80s animated version.

Thanks Bay for resurrecting my childhood. :)

Umm...what else...going to see Beowulf tomorrow. Then, the next movie will be Sweeney Todd (Johnny Depp, hell yes!), umm...National Treasure 2, I am Legend...that's basically it for the year.

Gotta rent the Omega Man first just to compare it to the original.

Oh, also saw Disturbia last weekend. It was very good. Of course I'm a Hitchcock fan, so that's why I'd love it! And Shia's in it...I digress. *shakes head*

Got Blades of Glory in Netflix. Haven't watched it yet.

Heard Stardust is very good, added that to the Netflix list. It comes out Dec. 18.

Pirates 3 on DVD Dec. 4. (yess....)

[Devastator]

Hitman

Wonderful...the story is fantastic. It keeps you guessing then bam, it all comes together. Best game to movie ever. Its a little slow and drags at times but its entertaining. Surprisingly good acting too. The only thing that bugs me is that a shot in the trailer wasnt in the film. The one where he is holding the Dragunov on the roof as the wind blows flipping his red trademark tie; its cut short before they show him holding it up.

Be warned that if you are a fan of the game dont go in expecting it to be like it and dont trust the synopsis, its a little misleading. Agent 47 is an actual human in this one, not a clone. He is a cold hearted bastard though.

[The Great]

Just watched no country for old men. The Cohen brothers completely dropped the ball. There was a good amount of dialogue that was left out that really brought the book together and made the whole read worth while for me. With it taken out the movie was just a hollow shell. It had no real depth at all. I went to see it in champaign il and there was laughter from the crowd after the final scene. There is a part where chigurah goes in to talk to the guy whose money he was trying to retrieve in the movie he just goes into kill the guy for sending other people after the money. in the book chigurah was a free agent who set all this in motion so he could strike a deal with the guy.

There was a great interaction between chigurah and carla jean at the end of the movie that was cut to the bone and made the whole scene meaningless. the talk they had pretty much makes you think about what happens after that talk. I really wouldn't have been to disappointed with this movie if they had of kept certain dialogue in it. it was probably one of the most faithful book adaptions i have ever seen other than the fact they left out things that gave the movie it's point. However, because of that i have to say it was a bad movie. I will never understand why hollywood chooses to change things that don't need to be changed. Considering this was more of an independent/arthouse film it seems like a few extra minutes of dialouge and cutting out some unnecassary visual scenes with no dialogue would have served the story better.

What makes it worse is that there's no deal in sight, and if it drags on into mid-2008, the actors will strike too. :(

Wait! Oh.. that one. I think I saw it on TV at one point.:D

No offense, but I'm not fond of that version of the cartoon batman. Grew up watching the animated version that had Mark Hamill as the Joker. Basically I don't like how they portray the Joker in that series.

Me too.

Mask of the Phantasm is still the best animated Batman movie.

Yah. I love that one! I also like the Batman Beyond movie, just because the plot is an interesting one.

Chris Weitz's The Golden Compass

Fine setting, some fine shots. Lots of ridicolous moments and dialogues.
Seems that things happends ramdonly.

Let me ask you.

Did you find it any un-Christian at all, or against authority or anything along those boycotting reasons?

I'm curious to know your opinion.

My one friend is going off the hinge about all that stuff. Course he was always saying that J.K. Rowling practiced satanic rituals too. :rolleyes:

that is sometimes true for writers as well.

I think that a story should have a point, but if you try to cram something down my throat, I'm going to gag.

Yes, some of that stuff could be found. But ones are too light (against authority) and others too obvious and exagerated (the equivalent of the Pope is like an evil emperor who wants to rule the world and who kindnapps and kills children)

Anyway, in my opinion there's no reason for boycotting, just defends freedom of thinking.

Really deserves boycotting due to the storytelling LoL

Apparently, it's the first of the three promised films.

One of my coworkers has read the entire trilogy and says there's no way they can make the third film and market it to kids. (It's basically pornographic because, well, the kiddos grow up...:eek::rolleyes:)


Amen to that. :cool:

Actually "Amen" to all the stuff said from that post on....

Pun intended, right? LOL :D

[Bumblebee1983]

Never say no way... Anything is possible.

The movie I am looking forward to is the 4th Indy...
should be a rockin' good time. Was just reacquainting myself with that bit of history... just can't go wrong with that as a basis.

http://www.unmuseum.org/cryskull.htm

Oooh, Indiana Jones.....yes, I'll be interested to see exactly how Harrison will pull this one off at his age.

I do not doubt him one bit though. :D

With Shia in it, it'll be good though. :cool:

[Bumblebee1983]

Ye have little faith... step away from the video games girlie and put back on your reality hat. It's special effects and stunt folk. If you can make toys rumble in the streets of LA and the Hoover Dam, you can make Indy very nimble. :)

LOL

I don't have a reality hat. :(

Nimble Indy. I giggle at the thought.

But I said I do not doubt him. Therefore, I have faith. :D

I would sooooo love it if Connery came back to reprise his role.

Damn I loved him in the Last Crusade and the Rock.

I know, two totally completely different movies, but he kicks ass. :)

Oh my god! Yes! I agree!

[Bumblebee1983]

Oh my god! Yes! I agree!

I love Connery.

I'd so hit that. :p

Anywhoos, back on topic: Last night, Captain Ron was on, and I watched some of it. I've forgotten how funny it really is and is absolutely the funniest film Kurt Russell's been in.

Speaking of movies, I just watched Gremlins 2 (again) and WOW!:eek: Did I feel my IQ drop. Though John Glover was funny in it. :D

[Bumblebee1983]

Gremlins? Gremlins 2?

Meh, it was early Spielberg. I could care less about those movies, which is why i agree with you saying you felt your IQ dropping.

[alexsm]

Gremlins 2 is amazing, it's nota comedy or even a film with jokes, it's a joke itself.

I saw:

Futurama: Bender's Big Score

Starts fine and ends terrific.

Still, it was a fun movie though. I did find the Gremlins quite annoying.

Me too... still do. Though it did scare me when I was a kid... :D

[Devastator]

The Mist...damn, pretty good. The ending...damn.

Redline...everything with the cars is great other than that it sucks ass.

Uncharted: Drakes Fortune - Holy shit, a video game with the best story ever. The way its made is like you actually are participating in a playable movie. You care about the characters and want to keep playing it to see the story unfold, its that interesting. Its great to even watch someone play it.

[LadiesMan217]

Magnum Force and The Enforcer: I saw a documentary on Clint and that inspired to view some Dirty Harry-flicks again. Like 'em both, although Magnum is clearly the stronger film, and Clint Eastwood is simply the man.

[Ricardo]

The Marksman with Wesley Snipes. Not that good.

[barricade505]

The Champ.....*sniff*sniff.........

[IMT Guyver]

Just all the BOURNE films. love that stuff

[Devastator]

Knocked Up - finally seen it. pretty good

3:10 to Yuma - So cool. Probably the best western I have seen besides Tombstone.

[KTMortimer7]

Uhm... I Am Legend, Dreamgirls, and National Treasure #2. Now, I Am Legend was good but half-way through it just got a little amateur and disturbing. Dreamgirls was ok.. not my BIG type of movie. And National Treasure #2 was just awesome.

[alexsm]

Alien VS Predator: Requiem - As a huge fan of Alien & Predator i found it a great fun ride. But there are lots of flaws, maybe too much.

Zoolander - Nothing special. Not good, not bad. Not funny, not boring. At least there's Milla :)____

[alexsm]

Atonement - The most i think about it, worst is my opinion about it. Was entertaining, but there are too many things wrong.

[alexsm]

Pasoloni's Il Decamerone - I'm almost sure that i will never see another Pasolini's movie. Not bad but at the end it's very boring (and it's suposed to be the "funniest" of his movies)

[Bumblebee1983]

Finally got around to watching the netflix rental I've had for....ohhh...three months?

It was Hot Rod. Cute, funny movie....but not as funny as say Anchorman or Talladega Nights.

Speaking of Anchorman, I've got to order that HD DVD.

[Bumblebee1983]

Okay. Finally got around to watching Brokeback Mountain.

Just...wow. What a movie.

Beautifully directed. Beautifully shot. And beautifully acted by all actors.

It really was a groundbreaking movie for the main love story in it. To be honest, some parts of it made me uncomfortable to watch (I will not go into detail...no no no), but overall, it's a very good movie.

I now know why Heath was nominated for best actor, Jake for best supporting actor, and Ang Lee won best director.

I liked it, but found it too long. I would have cut more or less 20 minutes.

-Cloverfield: Just seen it an hour ago. Well, it's the "Godzilla version" of the spanish [REC]. Fine but not great, maybe because "i've seen this before" and in my opinion [REC] was better.

Yes, it was a bit long. I was so tired when I watched it I just wanted it to end.

Cloverfield is AWESOME!!!

[Devastator]

Grandmas Boy - Not a great movie but parts of it are down right hilarious.

[alexsm]

Cloverfield is AWESOME!!!

Maybe if i haven't seen [REC] before i would have thought the same, but i saw it some time ago and both have the same concept ([rec] in a horror way, and in my opinion is the most terryfing movie i've ever seen). Really a hard oponent.

But it will not be released in the EEUU. There you will have a remake in october (named as Quarantine), but i'm not very confident about it.

[Duracell Bunny]

Sweeney Todd - Though it was pretty good, i wasn't looking forward to it originally but it turned out not so bad.

Halloween - Loved it, Rob Zombie hit the nail on the head with this one.

I AM LEGEND - Was alright, enjoyed it, but asn't OMG material.

30 Days of Night - Jumpy, freaky vampires, loved it.

AVP:R - Enjoyed it more than the 1st, although i think they could do better with this franchise.

Cloverfield - Just watched it earlier today, absolutley loved it. Cant wait for the possible sequel.

Sweeney Todd was at my local theater for like two weeks, then it was GONE. Pissed me off to no end. I wanted to see it!!!

[Duracell Bunny]

As long as you dont mind the musical side to it, then you'll enjoy it, I thought it was good, and im not a musical fan :P

I love musicals actually. And I previewed the soundtrack at the iTunes store and Johnny Depp sounds incredible.

I suppose it'll be a rental for me. *sigh*

[Duracell Bunny]

Rambo - Just watched, thought it was damn cool. Some scenes were pretty horrific, but I think Stallone wanted to get across exactly what it is/would be like... and he did damn well also. He didn't have much lines in it though lol. Great film however, loved it.

I saw that opening night. And my theater was PACKED, including a lot of pre-teens and a BABY!!! FTW? A baby in an R-rated film? Those parents should be shot!

Anywhoos, I thought it depicted the genocide going on in Burma quite well, but a bit too graphic.

I was really affected by it (the bloodshed and all) and felt I needed therapy afterwards. Seriously....the bloodiest of all Rambo movies.

But very well done.

[raddimus]

to be honest I have probably scene every movie you've seen.I see nearly every movie in theaters.the ones I don't deem worthy of big screen viewing I see on my forums.It's honestly rare where someone says have you heard are seen this movie and I'm like no...I love movies.nearly all...but trust me when I say it's lame or stupid cuz it takes a really shitty screen writer actors directors or camera men to get me to say that movie was horrible.I did see a movie called altered about some rednecks kidnapping an alien that was f-in creepy.

[raddimus]

oh are you guys talking bout rambo!LOL. I fell asleep in the middle but it was based in thailand. Was like this dude is f-in psychotic and needs some doctorine or family support.lol.c'mon alot of people come home your f-up in the head to say I went to war so I'm gonna live in a third world country and help no one.lmao what a dick his boxing coach micky woulda been dissapointed....you can do it rock!!!lol.

Yhea I miss spoke I thought he was fuckin retarded...lol and thats what made me laugh:D:)

[Devastator]

The Bucket List - Great heartwarming movie. If you like either actors its a much watch. Probably Morgan Freeman's best performance since Robin Hood (actually Shawshank). Jack is awesome as usual.

[Laurens]

^ Freeman's best performance was IMO in The Shawshank Redemption.

[raddimus]

the lite runner was a really good movie too

For some reason I always forget that movie.:confused:

How was Meet the Spartans? Funny? Worth the admission ticket?

I kind of want to see it...and Kevin Sorbo's in it. Whoohooo!

[raddimus]

I don't know if it was worth paying for but it had it's hilarious moments...It was one of those"Another teen movie"spoofs.it was definetally worth the watch,but I'm not sure id pay for it.yhea sorvo had some funny lines too.though you might be surprised how openly gay he can act at times,lol.:D:)No disrespect intended towards...peoples preferences in sexuality.

[raddimus]

I'm gonna watch that over her dead body tonight....my girl wants to see it with me so,you know it's kinda like when she drug me to broke back,you do anything for love right?LOL.I'll let you guys know how it is...yhea any movies out right now anyone could suggest would be greatly appreciated.:)

Hell, I had to watch Brokeback by myself.

My boyfriend would sooo not take it.

[megatron42]

well that sucks

[Bumblebee1983]

well that sucks

I actually enjoyed it without him.

I wasn't subject to his whining and crying about 'how this isn't right' and blah blah BLAH.....:p

[Devastator]

Serenity - good sci-fi, characters are great
Crank - fun over the top action flick

I watched Sweeney Todd for 15 min and turned it off. At least I gave it a shot.

[Duracell Bunny]

The Golden Compass - Not sure, the film was pretty good overall, got a bit confusing at times, and the ending sort of sucked, not sure if it was an actual ending, or opening for a sequel.

Hitman - spot on.

Disturbia - Bought this a while ago now, I really enjoyed it, Shia entertains me a lot.

[Devastator]

Hitman is so underrated. I cant wait for the release on bd (march 11). I absolutely adored the movie. One of my favorites of '07. I hear the director is rumored for the new Conan movie. Also a Hitman2 is being thrown around.

[Duracell Bunny]

Yeah I loved the film also. Wouldn;t mind a 2nd. New Conan film? Never heard of that yet, is it Arny? New film new game, oooo :D

[uraydo]

Crank - fun over the top action flick


unlike most people. I absolutely hated that movie.

[Devastator]

Yeah I loved the film also. Wouldn;t mind a 2nd. New Conan film? Never heard of that yet, is it Arny? New film new game, oooo :D

Yea its listed on imbd, but its a rumor. No actor is set. I hope it happens too.:cool:

[guitarded]

Wouldn't be surprised to see Arnie in another conan film. Stallone's got him beat with rocky 6 and Rambo 4...LOL

How about Commando 2.......The revenge of Bennet :D

quote "c'mon John...stick your head out John!" LOL

[guitarded]

unlike most people. I absolutely hated that movie.


LOL, no surprise there ;)

The best scenes in "crank" were when he was going at it with his girlfriend in public, and when he says, " Do I have c**t written on my forehead?" HAHAH

[guitarded]

Just watched "the Gameplan" with "The Rock"

I gotta say, Disney puts out really good movies.......Pixar, even better.

[guitarded]

Hitman is so underrated. I cant wait for the release on bd (march 11). I absolutely adored the movie. One of my favorites of '07. I hear the director is rumored for the new Conan movie. Also a Hitman2 is being thrown around.


Nice!!! It's good to here some good reviews about hitman. I was a fan of the games on pc, but I haven't seen the movie yet. A few people I know said it sucked, but some things you just gotta judge for yourself

[Devastator]

Stallone was quoted saying theres gonna be more Rambo and Rocky films from The Feed on G4. It was on the ticker but I only seen the last of it so I don't know if he will be in them or not and I'm not 100% sure.

Meet the Spartans - A fucking disgrace to a great movie. It should be banished for all eternity. Theres not a damn thing funny in this movie. You have got to be retarded or 5 to find anything amusing. I never hated a movie until this.

[guitarded]

Yah, my stepson went and seen "meet the spartans" ...said it was retarded


Now Superbad....There's a great movie to watch!

[raddimus]

Hell, I had to watch Brokeback by myself.

My boyfriend would sooo not take it.

I won't lie it was a good movie and some quality acting but at times...during certain monolouges like you complete me,I busted up and my girl threw me out. and the sex scene...I tried to be mature but had to get up and walk out as couldn't justify watching to men even acting like they were getting it on.So two are three times I respectively left the movie for a few moments.

[raddimus]

I was kinda proud of myself though.when me and my girl saw it...there was only two hetrosexual couples there me and some forty something couple the rest was a bunch of men....Oh god I hated thinking these guys just want to see some man on man action...there was some weird dude seated behind us getting all hot and bothered...I actually shivvered right now thinking back on it.lol.

[InDi_GurL]

the bucket list, it was a very nice movie. the two veterans actor did really great, thumbs up!

[raddimus]

yhea that was a good movie,the kite runner came out at the same time so I always forget the bucket list,but that was a pretty good movie too.

[alexsm]

No Country for Old Men: Starts fine, continues great, ends horryfing.

[Duracell Bunny]

National Treasure and National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets

Thought they were brilliant, absolutley loved them, very interesting films.

[redqueenar]

I saw The Orphanage two days ago at a great little indie theatre up the street from myself and it is still "with me" if you get my drift. I was really impressed by the atmosphere of this movie and the way it delivered its shocks. It thought it might feel like a rehash of a lot of other things, with the ghost children, the deformed kid, etc, but it really wasn't. It was a very unique thing. I know a few people were turned off by its semi-explanatory ending but I was so moved by the woman's plight I didn't care about that. It's very intense, very good. I recommend it. I'm being kinda vague because I don't want to spoil any more than I kinda-sorta have!

[raddimus]

I didn't see the film queen unfortunatly...It sounds as though It was a decent/communitive horrifying, movie!!!111.

[yoco]

I haven't been in theaters for some time now, so I watch movies on DVDs. Last two were 30 Days of Night (awsome movie) and In the Valley of Elah.

[InDi_GurL]

alvin and the chipmunks! hehe, very funny. i like theodore he's soo sweet though he eats a lot.

[raddimus]

I just watched day of the dead 2008 version...not released yet.:Dnot as good as the original,good watch though.I'm getting ready to watch fools gold right now.

[alexsm]

Before Sunrise: Beautiful movie. Loved it. Makes me remember a moment i lived not so long ago.

John Rambo: :eek::eek::eek: I expected it to be a fun ride but to my surprise it's a really good movie. A great movie. Pessimistic, raw, full of sadness. And very well paced. Maybe the best movie starred by Stallone that i've ever seen.

[Trailbreaker]

Saw Cloverfield last month. That was awesome!

[Bumblebee1983]

Saw Cloverfield last month. That was awesome!

oooohhh yes, Cloverfield IS awesome!!!!

:D

As for John Rambo....damn, I felt I needed therapy after seeing that movie. Entirely too bloody.

But my boyfriend and his dad enjoyed it. That honestly scares me.

[Duracell Bunny]

Just saw Sunshine, bought it cheap on DvD. Wierd, just plain wierd.

[Trailbreaker]

oooohhh yes, Cloverfield IS awesome!!!!

:D

As for John Rambo....damn, I felt I needed therapy after seeing that movie. Entirely too bloody.

But my boyfriend and his dad enjoyed it. That honestly scares me.

I had guys telling me about how much they liked Rambo, but I have no plans on watching it. I'm simply not into that stuff.

[raddimus]

I don't know about the rambo thing I fell asleep watching it.:Dwatched jumper.wasn't to impressed by it either.

[barricade505]

I wanted to see Rambo too.My wife suggested "no".Funny how I loved the "war" movies of past.Seems harder to swallow knowing that it is nowhere close to reality many times.I watched Noddy for the hundreth time though.Watching my two yr olds movies have retrained my mind.I now know all my colors,numbers,shaped,emotions,and the potty.YES!!

[alexsm]

I think Sly's Rambo deserves to be seen. Is not a funny movie, not an entertaining show. Not just a movie about shooting. It's a harsh and sad movie that tells a story about our inner evil... and well, with some gory and truly violent scenes. Here violence is not funny or beautiful, is something macabre, awful.

Sly tells more with his easy story line and his sharp violence than many pedantic "auteurs" would achieve in their whole life.

[barricade505]

Thats why I resisted,I want to see what it was he made of the film.The trailers look awesome.But the looking into ourselves and seeing the similarities to war...I'll pass.I cant sleep as it is....Did I mention I watched Noddy for the hundreth and one times?

[raddimus]

lmao:D.Ok I'm gonna give this rambo movie another shot.maby I was just tired.Now mind you I love violence and gore...loved apocolypse now,and a great story,so I'll let you guys know what I think afterwards.

[InDi_GurL]

Juno, the story is very simple.. . it's about teenage pregnancy. . quite nice. .

[raddimus]

yhea I was thinking about watching that one.

[Devastator]

Rambo - I didn't think it was too bloody. I mean if a Barrett M107 .50 caliber sniper rifle shoots someone in the head its going to explode. The mg at the end is the same caliber so it going to leave huge holes in a body too. I would say this movie kicked some major ass. I loved it. The story was great and the way Stallone portrayed Rambo being of old age and thoughtful was just fantastic. During the mg shoot we didn't get the lame ass yelling while shooting a big gun into a huge crowd scene. He actually had to reload and kept it cool taking his shots respectively. That was awesome. I really liked the end were he decided between the road and home. This movie deserves to be on par with Rocky; a great ending of a series to two iconic characters. Stallone is the fucking man.

No Country for Old Men - Good movie but forgettable. I'm not impressed. Yea it had great acting and such like everyone says but its boring. Not worth a second seeing. If this movie did not have such a good villain it would be trash. I felt in every scene I was waiting for him to return just to see him kill someone or antagonize them. Every time he kept saying "Call it." I kept thinking this would be Two-Face in a new Batman movie. I don't hype movies up until I see them but ultimately I was disappointed in this one.

A few good Men: As good as always.

[Trailbreaker]

I also saw Meet the Spartans. Do not watch this movie!

I also saw Meet the Spartans. Do not watch this movie!

The trailer looked funny, but I never got to see it.

Thanks for the warning.

Care to elaborate? :)

[Devastator]

"Meet the Spartans - A fucking disgrace to a great movie. It should be banished for all eternity. Theres not a damn thing funny in this movie. You have got to be retarded or 5 to find anything amusing. I never hated a movie until this."

What I said about it a few pages ago. Worse than a Uwe Boll movie. I have an absolute hate for this movie. I am glad I watched it on the net. I even fell asleep twice during it and its only about an hour long.

[Trailbreaker]

Care to elaborate?

Trust me, there is no need to elaborate. Never, ever, ever see Meet the Spartans. These were my emotions when I saw it: :mad::eek::(:confused:

The 300 spoofs on Youtube are way better!

just saw Beowulf... It was kinda boring. I felt like I was playing a video game with out, you know.... playing.

[Bumblebee1983]

It was quite interesting seeing it in 3-D.

But I don't think they're able to replicate that on DVD. :o

It's like the bloodiest animated movie I've ever seen, but very true to the original story...which I've had to read numerous times in high school and college.

[uraydo]

really, I didn't think it was that bloody. the Heavy Metal movies were way bloodier.

[r-type]

Yeah, with Beowulf, only in 3-D was it worth watching. I have no desire to see it again. Although, Crispin Glover as Grendel was creepy good.

Just saw Gone Baby Gone, don't know how I feel about how this movie ended. Otherwise, I enjoyed it.

Sunshine. Very interesting.

[guitarded]

so was ninja scroll!

[Simon]

bewoulf was boring, yeah.
but the score was breathtaking. one of the best old school scores in the last 5 to 7 years.

anyway, saw no country for old men finally.
and finally a movie i wasn't dissapointed by. pretty great "old school" movie.

which leads to one of the biggest dissapointments ever, sweeney todd. what the fuck? it was a musical (which i usually love, moulin rouge is one of the best movie experiences ever), but there wasn't ONE, NOT ONE good sounding song in it. Ah well.

[Duracell Bunny]

I dont think Sweeney Todd was supposed to have any 'happy or good songs', it was a good movie for what it was.

Beowulf, well I loved that, really enjoyed it and the soundtrack rocked. Enjoyed the whole film. Made me go out and buy Beowulf and Grendel, which was not so bad either.

Meet The Spartans had some funny parts, but i probably wouldn't go out of my way to watch it again.

Great movie.

[KTMortimer7]

So... I've just seen two rock-awesome movies:

Howl's Moving Castle and MirrorMask.

....apparently my friends are trying to convert me to Anime/Manga genres. :D Woot!

[Devastator]

Don't do it man! Support American animation! lol

Lucky Number Slevin - Holy crap what a great movie. Pacing and writing are awesome. The direction is cooky-cutter, i.e. no cool shots or styles, just plane old camera work which is fine. Lucy Liu is adorable and the rest of the cast is well acted especially Morgan Freeman and Bruce Willis.

[KTMortimer7]

Haha. :D Maybe I will, maybe I won't *wink*.

I wanted to see that movie. *sigh* Yet another "wish I wasn't in college so I could watch that movie" moments... MUST ADD TO LIST!! :p

[Simon]

"I dont think Sweeney Todd was supposed to have any 'happy or good songs'"

well, i didn't say i want happy or good songs. why would i want happy songs in a dark movie (doh).
I want good dark sounding songs. With atmosphere.
They still can be "dark", "unhappy" or whatever, as long as they're not just pure crap.
It was just a text sung to some music in the background. No need to make a musical for that.
Anyway, whatever. Worst musical movie ever (and it gets 10 out of 10 points here in germany. good stuff!)

Team America - Finally watched it. Fuckin hilarious. Sure, some scenes (sex, puke, blowjob) were awful as hell but the other stuff was great. expected some left wing liberal stuff, but actually was a very conservative anti liberal piece (although making fun of everyone overall).

Snakes on a Plane - Expected some real trash b-movie so bad it's good again. Was a standard polished action movie though.

My friends told me about Team America and how funny it is. I probably don't wanna see it. Though I am into political humor, I'll pass on Team America.:rolleyes:

If you wanna see a b-movie, see Asylum's "Snakes on a Train"!!!:confused:

[uraydo]

what American animation?

[Bumblebee1983]

Snakes on a Plane - Expected some real trash b-movie so bad it's good again. Was a standard polished action movie though.

Ohhh Snakes on a Plane. What a cult classic. A very BAD cult classic that is.

I only saw it because I love love LOVE Samuel "Motherf'ing" Jackson. And the line "I'm sick and tired of these motherf'ing snakes on this motherf'ing plane!"

Waited all movie to see that.

I remember seeing it with my dad and little brother and boyfriend. Yeah, my dad and brother and I laughed all the way through it, but my boyfriend, he failed to see the humor. =(

Some of it I felt was a little over the top (ala the bathroom scene.)

OY.

Hey wasn't being personal or anything just saying, they have modified ST for 2008, the look wont hit the sound, they still had to keep a certain level of originality, the play has been around for years.

[Winkeladvokat]

@Bumblebee

I'd have to agree with your boyfriend. "Snakes on a plane" was a pure waste of time. It's so deliberately striving to be campy, that ultimately it fails on all accounts. Actually, I couldn't name a single redeeming quality about this movie. There are films you can enjoy with some buddies and a crate of beer - "Snakes" was aiming for that I guess - but ironically by trying to hard to cater to the AICN-crowd, this plane took a crash-landing.

Oh, and just to stay more on topic: Last movies I've seen (again) were "Casino Royale" (on of the best Bonds so far), "Blue Thunder" (a classic) and "Be Kind Rewind" (enjoyable, but ultimately disappointing).

[megatron42]

i agree snakes on a plane was a major snore. i'll be glad when rave motion pictures
start building at my local mall at the end of the month, seen what it would look like

Totally gotta agree with ya on Casino Royale. Daniel Craig did a pretty good job, but in my book, Connery's still the number one Bond.

[Winkeladvokat]

Yup, Connery's the one all others have to look up to. Worst one: Timothy Dalton, although both "A View to a Kill" and "License to Kill" were enjoyable.

Oh, and I totally forgot to mention yesterdays guilty pleasure: "Under Siege 2". Now THAT'S a C-picture I actually do enjoy :) (Caipirinha included, I should add ;) )

Haha.. why they chose those actors as Bond I will never know. And here's a guilty confession.... Connery's my favorite but Brosnan comes in third for me. The guy can't act too well but I thought he did a good job as Bond. Just like Reeves in the Matrix.:rolleyes: And Craig's doing excellent... second place for me! :D

Hmm... what other movies have I seen? Well, sometime I'm gonna see 10,000 BC 'cause it looks good and comes out on my birthday. But I just recently saw MirrorMask. AAAAMAZING!!!!! :D:cool:

*whispers* I think they were desperate.

I for one am waiting for Wall-E. It opens on my birthday! =)

[Winkeladvokat]

Actually, I also think Brosnan did a fairly good job. Shame the scripts were not up to par... Let's see, what do German Cinemas have to offer for MY birthday..? Oh, great, "Forgetting Sarah Marshall", "The Poughkeepsie Tapes" and "Religolous". On the bright side, I'll probably be in Amsterdam.

Yesterday's movie: "Wer früher stirbt, ist länger tot" which roughly translates to "You die first, you stay dead longer", official international title is "Grave Decisions". Hilarious German (specifically: Bavarian) comedy.

[Devastator]

Very Bad Things - WTF? Great movie. I like how everyone ends up insane especially the part at the end with Cameron Diaz.

[guitarded]

Connery was "the Bond" :cool:

Craig is doing very well at it, and Brosnan did a very good job as well. He was a natural for the Bond role, and I loved "Thomas Crown Affair"


I've got "Jumper" on a memory stick, Perhaps I'll find time to watch it this weekend

Jumper isn't all that great according to my coworker. She read the book of course and Hollywood bastardized it to no end.

ANYWAYS, I saw the Bourne Identity last night (yup, just now catching up on that trilogy. LOL)

It was great! Of course I love Matt Damon....:D Him in this role was goooooddd.....so I'll have to rent the other two now.

*cough* Anywhoos, what I don't get about the Academy is that the action and cinematography is maybe two notches below Bay's action...yet, they are the ones getting all the awards and such for sound mixing and editing.

WTF?

Thanks for the tip, ...and that's why I don't read the books....to avoid utter disappointment :p

I'll watch it anyways...and let you know

The bourne trilogy was amazing. It kept me focused, and excited throughout the series....After seeing the first, we rented the other two and watched them back to back a few months ago. I can't believe I waited so long to see it either. Damon was perfect for the role.

I imagine the prizes were one based on the series as a whole. The music does fit the movie

because of the imagination factor........don't have to worry about how to put it on screen, and how much money to spend

I just simply don't have time for both....and since I'm a guy......its all about the visuals:p........where as women are such audible creatures;)

[Devastator]

The bourne trilogy....never seen it. Looks like I got some watching to do since theres two feet of snow outside.

[Bumblebee1983]

Yes, watch it. Definitely.

I've reordered my Netflix queue to get the other two asap. I'm really interested in this trilogy after seeing the awesome-ness of the first one.

[guitarded]

Well, we watched jumper last night and..................................don't waste your time with this movie.

Pathetic, pathetic, pathetic!

The whole movie just seemed like a 13 episode tv series crammed into a movie.

...glad I didn't pay money to see it

*whistles*

I warned ya.....:)

[guitarded]

yah, and i did trust you....just wanted to watch it anyway......it was a freebee anyway

[Winkeladvokat]

"The Bourne Identity" didn't really grab me, so I gave "The Bourne Supremacy" a pass. I saw extended clips of "The Bourne Ultimatum" at a trade show (amongst others, the chase at the London train station) and decided to give it a chance. Glad I did, it's one of the finest action thrillers ever, even if it loses some plausibilty towards the end.

Haven't had a chance to catch up on part two. I bought it on DVD right after having seen "Ultimatum" but when I looked for it some weeks later, I was unable to find it. Only the receipt turned up, which at least gives me confidence that it is safely tucked away with all the other movies... ;)

Last movie I saw: "The Kingdom". (Again.) Great, simply great. Action with at least some brains. How often do you get that?

[MangaMel]

Had a thread like this one the old forums. It's, basically, you review/rate the movie/movies you last saw.

I'll go first...

I saw Ringu a few days ago, which is the japanese movie the horror movie The Ring is based on. I actually prefer this version. Director Hideo Nakata is really good at creating a creepy mood. Some genuine scary sequences too.

Last night I saw Joel Schumacher's Tigerland which was surprisingly good considering the guy who directed one of the worst, most annoying movies of all time is behind the camera. However, it's not one of the best war flicks I've seen but it's a different take on the war in Vietnam so I thought it was interesting.

I would say...Transformers (Of course. XD), then it would be Howl's Moving Castle...The Fifth Element (God I love/hate that idiotic DJ guy. XDD)...I Robot...Has anyone seen Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children? CG rocks!

[Duracell Bunny]

Advent Children does own on all fronts. I remember when they released the FFVII remade trailer for Ps3, everytone got so hyped about a remake, evil Square. :mad:

Juno - Great film. Original but funny, loved it.
Highlander The Source - Waste of a good franchise. Crap.

[megatron42]

it was ok... now highlander III was awesome

[r-type]

The Fountain

Saw it in theaters. Just saw it again. Beautiful film, that's all I got to say.

Yup, beautiful film.

Confused the hell out of me (cuz I didn't know what the hell was going on half the time), but beautifully shot/edited (whatever the correct term is.)

[raddimus]

Yhea I liked the highlander movies.I didn't like the bourne ultimatem.just watched the trailer for the new incredible hulk,didn't see to much but it looked alright.

[Winkeladvokat]

The first "Highlander" is a classic, a movie I certainly have watched a dozen times or so and own on VHS, Laserdisc and DVD. The sequels are - in my opinion - utter dreck, especially "Highlander III". "Highlander: Endgame" was bearable.

Last movie: "Blades of Glory". Surprisingly entertaining.

[uraydo]

Didn't much care for Highlander movies. I could never understand why they didn't walk around with metal callers. I know I knew people were out to kill me, and I only had one weak spot, I would damn well protect it.

[Devastator]

Knight Rider - fucking stupid

[raddimus]

lmao...you barely saw knight rider devastator?

I watched 10,000 b.c. Utter waste of time.Some visuals were stunning but as far as a story goes,it was weak...I was kinda expecting a semi beleivable movie.this was not even close.if anyone wants an explanation,I'll pm you.don't want to spoil it for anyone who does want to see it.

I just want to know if there's a new Dark Knight trailer ahead of it.

[raddimus]

from what I have heard,there is.I'm not sure I watched it for free.and thank god cuz it woulda been one of those movies where I woulda been I spent forty bucks for this.It was kinda funnythe main tribes people speak english,lol,but the evil people speak some weird dialect.it was like the egyptians employed mideval knights from dungeons and dragons,then went after english speaking cave ment,lol,that would eventually become indians...freakin horrible movie...

Oh yeah, I forgot. Heeehee.....

I'm still searching for that new dark knight trailer. I did find the IMAX one though.

DAMN!!! Looks friggin' awesome!

[raddimus]

lol,I do goto the movies alot just not on movies I'm not feeling positive it's gonna be good.I typically spend at least forty bucks at the movies.hey send me a link for the batman trailers...Isaw a trailer with heath ledger as the joker.it was like two or three minutes long with him and some cronies robbing a bank.

[Duracell Bunny]

The Forbidden Kingdom looks nice. I always wanted a movie with both Jet Li and Jackie Chan in. :D

[raddimus]

what,lol...:DThe question is, have you seen it.? I noticed that all us bay fans/tf fans have been talking alot about movies so I started a thread dedicated to new and upcomming movies.Maby you can post a intro to this movie in the thread, as I've not heard of it nor do I know what it's about...besides kung fu...which I love.

[nightshade]

My last movie theater experience is with Transformers, and though that has been a while it holds very strong for me. I was in the theater enjoying my last family outting when my husband passed away and my life went to h**l in a hen basket. the movie renewed my love of transformers and because i have to take my kids with me to the theater it has to be a worthy movie to dish out the moola it takes for three people to go.

[raddimus]

Sorry to hear that shade,but things will get better,at least your sons are their with you and as they get older will shoulder some burdens hopefully.But on recently seen movies I watched a movie called one hr,not yet released. it stared david carridine(kung fu) DMX(the rapper)Micheal madsen(resevior dogs/Kill bill volume 1 and 2) tommy wong, paul sorvino and kobe(I think she was a porn star)Well the movie seemed a bit rushed as far as story production, and acting goes,But the who done it was kinda cool.By the end though I'm not really sure I understood what took place.slightly confusing with all the plot twists.

That must have been a tough time for you. I lost my only brother years ago, so I think I can understand how you feel.

Also speaking as one who grew up in a single parent family, I can say mothers are most beautiful and bright heroes to their children. I and my brother used to think of ourselves as something like brave little soldiers to support and protect our honorable lady. So i guess you're greatly admired by your sons. :)

Welcome to the boards!

[raddimus]

True sora...Me and my brother were raised by my mother from the age of thirteen on.(Those years were tuff for her;Me and my brother were mean.):(:o.But we both grew to have nothing but the highest respect and regard for her sacrifices and as a person/indavidual in society.:):rolleyes:

BTW, finally 2007's movies came out to theaters here this week.

No Countries for Old Men, Elizabeth: The Golden Age, Jumper, Golden Compass, Enchanted..
But not Cloverfield yet. So, I saw The Golden Compass and Enchanted with my daughter yesterday.

The Golden Compass: Damn ice bears! (Personally I felt this movie was not my cup of tea)
Enchanted: After watching this movie, my daughter has been laughing at me like,

"Mom, I bet you'd sing this song (http://www.amazon.com/True-Loves-Kiss/dp/B00138IZNM) to that huge poster (http://solaryear.deviantart.com/journal/16323583/) like ~Does he need lips? Of course! He doesn't need battlemask!~http://news.soraya.jp/images/love_v.gif hee ha ha!"
