re: last movie you watched (Flag Up SPOILERS)
The Ghost Breakers was absolutely hilarious, Bob Hope was brilliant. A lot of the comedy doesn't play well especially today which of course made it all the more irreverent and humorous to me.
After that I saw Ron Howard's 'In The Heart of The Sea' which was the story of the Whaleship Essex ie the original Moby Dick. It was a decent movie, but the pacing and scope of it was all wrong.
After that I watched a little thing on YouTube about Stanley Kubrick's unfinished movies namely Napoleon and The Aryan Papers but also AI which Spielberg did.
Next up I have 'Darkman' which is a take off on 'The Shadow' and stars Liam Neeson pre Schindler's List and pre 'Taken'.

re: last movie you watched (Flag Up SPOILERS)
Good old 'Darkman' directed by Sam Raimi....ooooh boy....think a B movie version of Tim Burton's Batman/Batman Returns and this is it, this is the one. Danny Elfman, Tim Burton's A#1 choice for music did the score for 'Darkman' as well thereby connecting the two even more.
Liam Neeson's acting is questionable at best in this one....I think Willem Defoe would have been a better choice, but I digress....fun movie, good action, comic book feel to it which I appreciate a little more these days and honestly you could tell from the scenes that a video game was made out of it or was going to be made out of it.

Watched American Mary, very bloody and gory film but strangely erotic.

Is that the one about the bird who performs illegal operations on people and stuff?
If so then I watched that a while back, can't remember if it was any good though.

Yes it was on film 4 and very weird.
Watched Lone Survivor which is a first-hand account of a disastrous navy Seals mission in Afghanistan, this gruelling war picture follows four Americans pinned down near the Pakistan border while seeking out a Taliban militia leader.
I liked it and it starred Mark Wahlberg who is a poor mans Matt Damon.

Watched Mechanic: Resurrection
A little "James Bond-esque" with some of the unbelievable stunts, but passable.
Nothing like the original "Mechanic" and the way Bronson takes out his very first victim.
That was a classic.

re: last movie you watched (Flag Up SPOILERS)
Kickboxer Vengance - I've got to be honest, I was actually quite exited to have a look at this. The original kickboxer is a cult classic and even more awesome when you see the uncut version. Van Dam is Van Dam, Michel Qissi as Tong Po is the bollocks.
Sadly, Kickboxer Vengance is pony, as you might expect. The guy playing Kurt is an ass, his only redeeming act was the piss take of JCVD dancing in the original. Eric was a token part played by a weird looking cunt. Eric was THE bad guy in the original. I was even quite intrigued by the wrestler dude playing Tong Po, he looked the part but again fell short of the original, how could he not? I'm convinced Michel Qissi is in this one as a prisoner but no mention of him in any credits.
The copper trying to shut down Tong Po's outfit is hot as fuck.
War Dogs - What sounds like a ridiculously interesting story, reduced to an out of the box film with Jonah Hill (Was this done before he lost weight or did he seriously pack on some timber after being thin?) being Jonah Hill. Slow mo walk on/walk aways with RnB, its all there. Candy Pop production of what could have been awesome. Jonah Hills characters laugh is quite amusing to be fair.
Karate Kid I II III
You've got to admire Daniel Larusso. The guy does not know how to fight, never has, never will, yet somehow manages to win the All-Valley Under 18's Karate championship with the bare minimum of training (albeit from a genius trainer) defeating nearly every member of the Cobra Kai along the way.
He then goes to Okinawa with Mr M where he despite his training still doesn't know how to fight (a bit like Rocky after Clubber Laing, that cunt forgot how to duck as well). He does manage to win a fight to the 'death' with the nutjob nephew of his trainers best friend, phew, well done Daniel.
He then comes back to the Valley, the film producers have twigged now that the cunt cant fight so they devise a way to keep him from fighting, introduce a new rule meaning he wins the comp with one pathetic chop, brilliant. Whats great about Karate Kid III, is that within the space of a year, Dutch, Bobby, Johnny, The other one, have all fucked off and left Karate behind, not a sign of one of them at the comp. Whats sad about Karate Kid III, and II, is no Elizabeth Shue. I would let her poo on me.

Up next the ORIGINAL Ghostbusters 'The Ghost Breakers' starring Bob Hope
Watched The Revenant last night. Visually it was stunning with some genuine 'fuck me!' moments. The bear attack obviously, arrows through the face, water coming out of his neck, all very impressive visuals. I couldnt help thinking as I watched it, times getting on here and there isnt much time left for this epic vengeance mission. I think I was expecting him to blame the whole lot of them and slaughter them one by one in gruesome fashion.
I also spent the whole film thinking I'd be crying here, and that was just because of the cold and wet. Proper hard cunts.

Bronson was a special actor and he is THE reason there hasn't been a proper The Punisher movie as for the most part the 'Death Wish' series is what The Punisher films should have been.....only maybe with a bit more grindhouse style violence in it.

Want what 'The Revenant' was trying to be? Try 'Jeremiah Johnson', now THAT my friend is a movie!
Also as for the "Proper hard cunts" 'There Will Be Blood' showed a lot of that grit and tenacity that one would expect from 'The Revenant'....also I think 'Last of The Mohican's' was better as well....ooh and 'Apocalypto' too, that was badass.
I watched a documentary on Netflix called 'Holy Hell' about the Buddhafield cult. I quite enjoy watching these movies about cults and seeing how people get hooked into this kind of thing. I watched movies on Jonestown and The Source Family and there's always a charismatic figure that runs these cults and this was no different, but I do believe and I'm sorry to say this about the people who were in the Buddhafield, but they seem a lot more naive than the people from the other groups. The leader of the Buddhafield, Michel Rostand (known by SEVERAL aliases) started out as kind of an Indian sounding guru and then migrated from that accent to kind of a Pinoy accent and then to kind of a Mexican/Hispanic accent all over just a few years and just from looking at the guy and how he carried himself I could IMMEDIATELY tell that he's homosexual, has a great many issues with his sexuality, and is quite possibly someone who would like to be transgendered but has not reached a level personally where he can accept that about himself but at the same time he has not let go of that idea/feeling. I find the psychology of such people very intriguing....master manipulators who always end up being more neurotic and fucked up than any of their followers who quite often suspend disbelief in order to accept the positive messages a leader like that might accidentally stumble over in their manipulations of their groups.

Bad Moms - Sometimes you got to take one for the team. There were some genuinely funny moments in an ordinary chick flick.

re: last movie you watched (Flag Up SPOILERS)
Harry Brown - Michael Caine plays Harry, an ex Marine living on a council estate overrun by cunt chicken children. Harry goes on the rampage after his mate gets killed. The best characters are Stretch and Kenneth, proper wrong uns. The rest is pretty predictable with Harry winning the day and the cunt chicken children either dying or simply disappearing. I found it hard to watch because of the chicken children. I just cant stand that 'street' persona and lingo, especially from white kids. Anyone who uses the word pussyhole or pussyole to describe a person should be immediately locked up, just in case.

re: last movie you watched (Flag Up SPOILERS)
Tried to slog through 'Hotel Terminus' which was about Gestapo thug Klaus Barbie also known as "The Butcher of Lyon" who actually was utilized by the United States to find Che Guevara so we could kill him. But the movie is mostly in French and it's long and drawn out and there's just a lot of confusion reading the subtitles, remembering who was talking about what person and understanding The Resistance had been infiltrated by Communists....it was just taxing to keep up with.
Next up the newly released 'Batman The Killing Joke' sure it's animated but we'll see how it goes.
Watched 'Jaws' last night, always a great film.
-
re: last movie you watched (Flag Up SPOILERS)
'Batman: The Killing Joke'.......meh it was alright I guess, I thought that it could have been a lot better. It was animated but R rated and it was supposedly shot for shot a recreation of the graphic novel by the same name.
Up next in my queue is 'Book of Shadows Blair Witch 2' which will obviously be good because it's so God awfully bad..and after that it's 'Murder Party' which looks interesting and I am hoping if I've liked Tucker & Dale vs Evil and Cabin In The Woods that I will enjoy this one.
-
re: last movie you watched (Flag Up SPOILERS)
Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2
......ooooh boy was this movie bad, just legitimately horrible. So this "tour" of people which included: a not yet married couple, a Wiccan "Earth Child" :rolleyes:, a Goth/Emo psychic chick, and a bumbling idiot/psychotic tour guide who has one of the dumbest houses I've ever seen. They camp out at The Blair Witch House which is apparently very easy to find, another tour runs into them and they are sent off to some place called "Coffin Rock" where they end up dead.....basically the premise of the movie is the survivors SPOILER ALERT Man from the almost married couple, Tour guide, and Goth/Emo gal have all been "touched" by the witch and therefore are prone to blackouts in which they do very violent things like kill the other group of tourists and so on and then they don't remember because witch blackout and yet they've video taped everything because the tour guide is paranoid and also retarded. In playing the tapes back they see themselves doing these deeds and they cannot explain why they are innocent to the police only for the viewer to realize the hamhanded lesson this movie is teaching......it's like THEY'RE the people on witch trials MAAAAAAAN!!!!
That movie was soooooooooooo bad and so schlocky.
Here's an idea Blair Witch peoples.....how's about you actually tell the tale of before the witch turned witch ghost. Maybe there's a love triangle or something and wires get crossed and a young naive woman is subjected to torture and pain and comes back as the witch ghost for revenge? That seems a bit more sane of a plot

Watched Good Kill with Ethan Hawke for some reason. Not bad. Never realized he was the kid in The Goonies.
I have a default blah reaction when hearing classics being remade but am looking forward to Magnificent Seven. Promos look good.

Indeed, The Magnificent 7 actually looks decent

Just watched this, now I like Rob Zombie purely because he point blank refuses to let the genre die and he seems to be trying to keep it alive single handedly.
Devils Rejects was bloody brilliant.
This on the other hand was merely 'meh' tired dated story that tried to be something like a cross between hunger games and saw with rednecks and hillbillies.
The shaky camera work really bothered me and the scenes where there was supposed to be 'shocking gore and brutality' didn't really show anything and the quick camera cuts actually made it pretty confusing at times.
Having said that there is a Spanish Nazi Death Midget who was pretty cool and Doomhead would make a fantastic joker if they ever made an 18 version of Batman, wasn't quite enough to save the film though.
Oh and even though she can't act I would bang the living fucks out of Sheri Moon Zombie

Now I'm not a Rob Zombie fan, but I'm not a hater either, I think he's got some Tim Burton kind of qualities to his work. If Tim Burton made R rated movies he'd be Rob Zombie. There's just a suspension of disbelief in those movies, but then again they are horror movies sooo you've got to kind of do that anyway.

Commando - Arnie at his wooden best. Utter horseshit sprinkled with some movie gems. Taking the top of a guys head off with a circular saw blade because despite emptying an army surplus store you temporarily find yourself out of ammo. Emptying said army surplus store then fitting all your wares inside one rubber dinghy. You even had your clothes in luggage so had to row your dinghy in your speedos. Bennet, the most unlikely bad guy ever, built like a darts pro with a tache only bested by Tom Selleck. He was so bad he had to have half his face covered up in Weird Science. He was so bad in Weird Science he had to have half his body covered up in Power Rangers.

I had to read that book for school....holy God was that tedious sickly effete English people traveling back and forth across the moors during shitty cold grey weather having tea in the parlor.....NOTHING HAPPENS in that book. NOTHING!

I was surprised at how much enjoyment the children were having in the cold and mud too.
It said to me that the best time of your life is being a child, just playing and not having a care in the world.

Indeed, this is the way to truly LIVE life......until you die of consumption or typhus as all 3 of the Bronte sisters and their brother Branwell did :toff:
Oh the Bronte's were tedious.....Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre...BOOOO BOOOOO stuffy English hogwash. And Jane fucking Austen is just as bad! 'Emma', "A comedy of manners"....BOOOOOO!!!!! Pride and Prejudice.....BOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
Nothing happens! Nothing happens in any of these books!!!! Not a damned thing!!! Why are they so revered? Because they were women authors? WRITE SOMETHING INTERESTING! Nah I'm going to do a story of an ill woman with a lousy husband and she secretly yearns for her beloved Heathcliff and why write this story? Oh, that's easy, because she's an ill woman who wants some sexual action before she dies.
Irksome books these....even more worthless when put on screen.
