I love both these films, and can't wait to revisit them.
Uninhabited.
Dont watch it, its crap.
Battleship, was alright, bit of fun...
Battle Royale is very good. Kind of fucked up though.
Mulholland Falls.....quality picture, ensemble cast....and to boost interest Jennifer Connolly's boobs :o . How Kevin Kline ended up with her is beyond me but bravo dude, bravo!
We bought a zoo.
Im back in love with Matt Damon.

Yes and upon further review she's married to Paul Bettany??? A fucking ginger (he's at least half a ginger) scored that....more impressive than Kevin Cline & Phoebe Cates.Quote:

District 13, cheesy in parts but awesome, reminiscent of ong bak in a way
American Reunion - Fucken funny. Well worth the watch I like the whole franchise.
Three Stooges - A lot funnier than what I anticipated. I laughed the whole time.
The Avengers - Great action film from begining to end. Could potentially knock off Iron Man 1 to the #2 spot on my superhero films.
Watched Terminator 4 and it was not that good and did not make sense. They should have followed the format for the first 2 movies.
I watched The Silence of the lambs over the weekend. It is a bit camp, but a fun film to watch. Hannibal Lector is a cool dude. Smart and witty and quite liable to bite your face off in an extremely calm frenzy. I like a character like that.

I can remember seeing it at the cinema and being reminded of Schrader, Scorsese and the seventies auteurs with the assured clarity of vision that Demme infused the film with.Quote:

My coolness just went up a notch :cool:
Daredevil was shockingly bad, the film Electra was better but was still poor.
Spiderman 3 was better than the other 2, although they were good too.
I loved Blade 2.
The X men films were all over the place, and did not follow the comic book at all. Vinny Jones as Juggernaut, please!
I could cast damn near any super hero movie better than it was cast.
I really like Daredevil...Quote:

People talk shit about it more so because it's Affleck. So any negative shit comes from that alone that it's Ben Affleck.
Throw in someone else who's a bit more likeable and it would be more popular.
I think the story was well written and overall it's a really good movie.
Well to each its own...I really liked them.Quote:

I like Blade 2 but prefer part 1...
Being that I'm not a comic book guy I'm not offended or bothered with the X-Men films at all... I know comic geeks get their suspenders up in a bunch about certain things in the films. I'm a big Wolverine fan and have always liked the character but the movie fell short for me as far as comparing them to the rest.
X-Men 2 has what I consider argueably the greatest opening scene of film of the past 10 years maybe all time.
Haven't watched it yet but Roadhouse is on channel 5 tonight after Europa League final. Anyone that can watch it must watch it, if you don't you're a gayer.
So says the guy who would give Woody a woody.Quote:

I'm in the middle of a documentary on Napoleon. Great great leader, probably one of the best along with George Washington and Augustus Caesar. Napoleon loved America as well, Louisiana Purchase was due to him too.
As my mam got the DVD for her birthday yesterday, ended up watching War Horse tonight. Not a terrible film, but not particularly good either. I am a guy who does get invested in a movie, and films like Seabiscuit and Marley and Me do usually end up with me blubbing, or at least wiping away a tear, depending on how drunk I am.
War Horse...I just didn't find it very involving, and I disliked the main human character in it. I quite liked the Germans, and the ending was over the top sentimental tripe. If I'm going to be manipulated by a film, then at least let me buy into it a bit more than that.
In 1964 Susan Tomalin(1946- ) began dating actor Chris Sarandon while both were in college. In that same year, 1964, I started my 2nd year of college in an honours history and philosophy course in Hamilton Ontario. Tomalin became Sarandon when she married on 16 September 1967. I married four weeks before Sarandon after dating a girl whom I started dating while I was in my last year at college.
Following Sarandon’s separation in 1978, she gave an interview to Cosmopolitan magazine in which she stated: "I no longer believe in marriage." She divorced in 1979. I divorced a little earlier in 1975 and, by 1979, I had been remarried for four years. I still believed in marriage as an institution; this was due to my Baha’i belief. I had been a member of the Baha’i Faith since 1959 and associated with it since 1953 when my mother joined this newest of the Abrahamic religions.
I had remarried in 1975 while teaching in Melbourne Australia, and am still married to the same person. Sarandon went on to find a partner and had the same partner from 1988 to 2009—the famous Tim Robbins. At the time Robbins said he was going through a mid-life crisis.
This afternoon, 12 May 2012, I watched Sarandon in the film Anywhere But Here which debuted the same week I took a sea-change and retired at the age of 55. The film debuted at the Toronto Film Festival on 17 September 1999. the very week I arrived in Australia’s oldest town for the sea-change that I am still enjoying. Sarandon is still going strong at the age of 65.
I have become a writer and author, poet and publisher, researcher and online journalist after 32 years in the classroom as a teacher and another 18 as a student. Sarandon is famous and rich and I am neither.-Ron Price with thanks to Wikipedia, 12 May 2012.
You’ve been in the movies
during my teaching years:
1969-2005 & my years as
a writer and author, poet
and publisher….You are a
source of pleasure for the
eyes, Susan, and for that I
thank you as I go through
these middle years(65-75)
of my late adulthood(60-80)
and old-age if I last that long.
So: take care of yourself, Susan,
as you run-the-gauntlet in your
last years and you continue to
entertain millions in your many
roles on TV and in the cinemas!
Our religion & politics were and
are far different…….I have never
had Catholic convictions or those
that are left-liberal, but that is no
reason for not enjoying you and
your many talents as an actress
in these 40+ years: “goodonyer,”
as Aussies say in Downunderland.1
1 Sarandon has spent much of her time tenaciously promoting myriad causes that are far too numerous to list comprehensively, but which include Conservation International, the Hunger Project and the Paediatric Aids Foundation. As well as donating money, she speaks out at every opportunity she can, sometimes alienating sections of American opinion. She does not try to keep her house tidy. For more on aspects of her life go to: On a roller-coaster with Susan Sarandon - Telegraph

I watched the French action film 'District B13' I loved it, lots of fighting & really neat parkour scenes. The main thing I loved was that the main characters were just so French. The one guy taking months to get into deep undercover and take out a criminal, the other keeping the one and only clean building in the B13 ghetto....the French are a proud people, proud of some strange stuff though.
Ive made 3 attempts at watching Mission Impossible 4 so far, fallen asleep every time.
Anyone watched Immortals?
I don't know if I've posted this but I recently saw 'The Passion of The Christ'.....interesting movie. I'm not averse to seeing adaptations of The Bible in film, and this one specifically tried to be true to the era with the language and clothing and all. I know a lot of people wonder about the movie since Mel Gibson has apparently gone insane wondering if he meant to portray the Jews as being responsible for the killing of Jesus. I did not see "the Jews" portrayed in that horrible of a light just because I know there was not 1 all encompassing form of Judiasm, there were different tribes and different sects the same as Christianity has different sects today. All in all an interesting movie, but very intense.
I did not find it to give me any deep spiritual message or feeling though
I watched Sunset Boulevard last night and thought it was superb. There is something very Miss Havisham about an old starlet who lives in yesterday and fails to see the wrinkles. I guess I related somewhat in terms of the pristine isolation that can warp a character. To be like that for 30 years and only be told yes. Well, it's a serious recipe for becoming Michael Jackson. And she buries a chimp. Uncanny all those years earlier.
Great flick! One of AFI's top 100. And it had one of the best lines of movie history "I AM big, it was the pictures that got small"Quote:

I watched Apocalypse Now today and Brando seemed like a depressed me. I got a bit like that after 4 days without food and a lot of hard drinking. There really is no other solution than to invite someone into your camp and machete you to death whilst muttering something about 'the horror'.
A drpressed you? fuck me how miserable was he? ;D
He had likely slaughtered a lot of people and had that on his mind. That can bring a man down. I've never killed a person, but I have taken out the bug spray and slaughtered a dozen or so ants. Morally it is the same thing. I kind of regret it. Recently I defended an ants life and my wife thought I was being mental again. I was just showing the conflict of the human mind. It isn't all murder.
I will watch Dr Strangelove tomorrow.
