exactly what I thought mate re the deer hunter - that fucking wedding scene goes on longer than an episode of Lost
I studied it at uni as part of a module I was doing and there was a big debate about why Robert De niro stripped off after the wedding eg people saying he wanted to leave his culture behind and get away from it, soul cleansing etc..
I thought to myself - maybe Bob just wanted to get his cock out ???
I just saw the Crazies last weekend. Decent flick. I just wish there'd been more 'crazies' in it.
I also saw Law Abiding Citizen last night. It was just 'meh'. Gerard Butler is totally crap at doing an American accent.
ha ha i think they just wanted some hype for the movie, the wedding scene never ended i think we get the picture there all friends & nieve & all that bollocks but it must of been on for a bloody hour or summitQuote:

i was really excited abt watching the fourth kind as looked pretty good from the trailers, man this film is freakiest i have ever seen, it stars milla jovovich playing a psychologist named Abigail Tyler who interviewed traumatized patientswho believed they had been abducted by aliens in Nome, Alaska.
half the footage of movie is real & really shit me up, some really freaky scary stuff:o. i had never heard abt her work & i will do some research thru the internet because it is really interesting. The thing that ruined the movie was the mix of real footage & the acting as the real footage is grainny & old looking which makes it weirder then mixes to bloody well lit hollywood shite. other than that this made for very interesting viewing, i would be very interested to know if any of you guys have seen this film.
ok i have reserached all i need now for the fourth kind
i will leave it @ that
ok i gotta apologise first after slagging off CGI & avatar!
was me birthday monday so me wife took me cinema & there wasnt really anything on so we decided to watch avatar in 3D, & we both enjoyed it! prob the first time since the original star wars films that i felt i was in a different world;D i would recommend it to anyone who wants to get outta some home reality.
also watched michael moores new film capatilism: a love story, thought this was pretty good & i have enjoyed his last 3 films, i understand he does over the top abit but it paints a disturbing picture of america just like his previous films.
The Firm (the footy hooligan remake)
Hilariously funny (not supposed to be) just for the stereotypes - shit film really, but enjoyed it
He BLATANTLY lies in his movies to get his OPINION across so I think that calling them "documentaries" does a disservice to people who actually make factual documentaries instead of skewing what happened until it fits their radical political view.Quote:

I just got done watching Humphrey Bogart's last film "The Harder They Fall" on TCM. It's a boxing movie and it was pretty decent, it's basically the true life story of anyone that has been "built up" when the people on the inside knew all along the guy being built up was a bum. But in this case it's pretty much about Primo Carnera, the fighter being built up is Toro Moreno and his nickname is "The Wild Man of The Andes" (Primo's nickname was "The Ambling Alp" they both are in reference to mountains)and he's really tall and in the end Max Baer(of course he's playing a character bu it's odd that it's still Max Baer) beats the shit out of him. Also there is another boxer in this film Jersey Joe Walcott, he plays kind of a trainer/sparring partner type role but it's a big role and he did well.
I suggest you guys see this film, it's pretty decent, it also has Rod Stieger as the bad guy
Alice in Wonderland. Was not bad at all, beautiful visually and filled with madness, a good compromise for kids and adults even if it doesn't follow the lead of the book.
yo lyle i knew my post on michael moore would get at u? maybe he lies but there truths in them as well i suppose, there very entertaining thoQuote:

War this was was a real surprise for me as thought it would be crap but i really enjoyed it, jet li is the shit man;D
The bourne supremacy was as good as bourne identity but still a good film looking forward to watching bourne ultimatum;D
50 dead men walking film abt an IRA informant, it was ok
Fighting this film is the biggest rip off of AWOL ever, still it was better than most street fighting films i seen
Watched some movies yesterday that i enjoyed;
The 4th Kind - Good if ya like alien abduction, suspense, thrillers !
Maiden Hiest - Easy to watch and good fun to boot ! - Christopher Walken, Morgan Freeman
Sherlock Holmes - Robert Downey Jnr pulls it off very well. And probs the best film Guy Richie has done sine Snatch !
All 3 well worth a viewing ;)
...documentaries are supposed to be based in reality and be factualQuote:

Watched 2012 yesterday and I was not big on it. It just seemed to be drawn out for a very long time and there is only so much you can watch of CGI earthquakes and tsunamis.
Shutter ISland. It is a shit hot movie. Great stuff from scorcese
Undisputed 2.Pretty good actually.Some really good fun action and a nice little twist at the end.I'd give it a bash folks.7 out of 10 for me.
I Can do Bad All by Myself. Big thumbs down, although Tiraji Henson is GORGEOUS even on a bad day.
At least I counterbalanced it with healthy portions of season 3 of The Wire. Man, that is a fantastic show.
Grab the lube, I should be watching the first Twilight movie tomorrow!
i had to watch new moon on dvd on friday night with the mrs i already got forced to watch it at the cinemaQuote:

I watched the Terminator a few days ago,"Yet again"great film,i never get sick on watching that film!!!:cool:
Commando is the one with Alyssa Milano, right? I remember him throwing that pole through the guy's chest in the end and he's pinned to the wall, dead, but holding the pole up with one hand.Quote:

I watched Peter Pan 2: Return to Neverland yesterday. I know I always watch these Disney films, but they are the best thing on the TV out here. I won't even begin to describe some of the dross they try to make you endure. Anyway, I quite liked it. Some of the animation was absurd, but on the whole I thought it was alright. The wife hated it and thought it was rubbish, but I have a soft spot for Peter Pan and the lost boys and good old Tinkerbell.
