mkreku Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 I loved Napoleon Dynamite. I laughed my head off. Another movie I can wholeheartedly recommend is Crash. It's a surprisingly nuanced and funny movie about racism, made in the Short Cuts-style (several different stories that all connect somehow) and a cast that's absolutely amazing. Very emotional movie.

Baley Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 I've seen about 50 minutes of Napoleon Dynamite and I'm totally indifferent.

Darth Launch Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 The last movie I saw was 21 Grams... I saw it at the cinema when it came out then and recently bought it on DVD and I don't think any of the quality has been lost in a second viewing at all... I definitely recommend DL [color=gray][i]OO-TINI![/i][/color]
thepixiesrock Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 Man, there sure are a lot of horrible movies out there. Lou Gutman, P.I.- It's like I'm not even trying anymore!http://theatomicdanger.iforumer.com/index....theatomicdangerOne billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the galaxy. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips. I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.
Dark Moth Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 Recently saw Dodgeball. I admit, it was a lot better than I thought it would be. Napoleon Dynamite was pretty funny too, though I think it's over-rated.
EnderAndrew Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 There are alot of bad movies out right now, but we had a good summer of popcorn flicks.
Shadowstrider Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 I'd like to recommend Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. I really like how Guy Ritchie directed the films. For those who've no knowledge of them, they're movies set in Englan and basically about crimes that go horribly, horribly wrong. Hilarious movies. Of course there are Godfather part I and II, both classic films. For those of you who don't mind black and white with subtitles (or who speak japanese), there is Seven Samurai.

For those who've no knowledge of them, they're movies set in Englan and basically about crimes that go horribly, horribly wrong. Hilarious movies. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah, those movies are awesome!! There's another english movie called Twin City I think, which is funny as well. Taking a bit of a sober turn, Trainspotting is a really good movie too. It's about a bunch of herion addicts and they're life, but it's got funny parts at the same time. Highly reccommended!
Archmonarch Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 How was the The Constant Gardener anyway Archmonarch? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Dunno. Never seen it. I just have a good memory. draakh: Yeah, it is 40 First Dates that is his latest movie. I have seen that one too, its good, but not one of Sandler's best, a bit more serious than others. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Sandler's most recent movie was that remake of The Longest Yard. It wasnt good at all. 50 First Dates was a year or two before that. And I find it kind of funny I find it kind of sad The dreams in which I'm dying Are the best I've ever had
Calax Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 For those of you who don't mind black and white with subtitles (or who speak japanese), there is Seven Samurai. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Don't get Seven Samurai 20XX tho Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

Am in the process of finding someone to rent it off. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My opinion of it is that it has some of the most unlikable characters ever. I seriously wanted to reach inside my TV and beat the everliving **** out of Napoleon. The only 3 parts I liked were "Pedro offers you his protection" the skim milk line, and the dance scene. The rest was ok. On a positive note, its the most quotable film ever. Anyway, I'm also getting all psyched for Serenity. Firefly is one of the best shows I've ever seen, and I love that they're making a movie. I just hope it does well enough to get either the trilogy made, or the series brought back and a decent attempt to market it. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
Commissar Posted September 10, 2005 Posted September 10, 2005 I recommend Spartan for anyone who hasn't seen it.

metadigital Posted September 10, 2005 Posted September 10, 2005 Spanglish. I hate Adam Sandler films, because they are peurile. This one was very watchable. Next film I want to see is on DVD: Maria Full of Grace, which is a beautifully bleak essay on many things, including the plight of the poor, with acting that is apparently second-to-none.

My dad even liked it and he doesn't usually go for Sandler movies. I saw The Skeleton Key and it was really good. Decently creepy movie, though it didn't scare me (I don't scare easy, except with videogames), I didn't manage to predict the twist until over an hour into it. Either I was off or it was disguised pretty well, even though they dropped some hints. Good movie.
EnderAndrew Posted September 10, 2005 Posted September 10, 2005 I have seen the original and really dug it. It was a fairly serious movie and I don't know about a comedic remake.
Archmonarch Posted September 10, 2005 Posted September 10, 2005 Burt Reynolds was the star of the original The Longest Yard. Which is why he was in the remake. And I find it kind of funny I find it kind of sad The dreams in which I'm dying Are the best I've ever had
metadigital Posted September 10, 2005 Posted September 10, 2005 WRT The Longest Yard, the British remade it a few years ago, with the execrable Vinnie Jones starring (he's the ex-soccer-player and violent knob from Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch), where they changed the film to be about a game of soccer (a non-contact sport). I remember thinking the original was pretty good, although I was quite young at the time. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
kirottu Posted September 10, 2005 Posted September 10, 2005 I liked the Adam Sandler remake. There were some funny scenes like when they "teached" referee to make better judgements. This post is not to be enjoyed, discussed, or referenced on company time.
julonia17 Posted September 10, 2005 Posted September 10, 2005 I just saw The Godfather Part II and I liked it.
SteveThaiBinh Posted September 10, 2005 Posted September 10, 2005 Doesn't have to be a new movie, according to the first post. I watched Fargo on DVD last night - I really love that movie. A movie has to be really dire for me not to enjoy it on DVD, but really good to motivate me to go to the cinema. I see not much calling me in the near future. To anyone who's seen The Constant Gardener: is it particularly worth seeing in a cinema, do you think? "An electric puddle is not what I need right now." (Nina Kalenkov)
Child of Flame Posted September 10, 2005 Posted September 10, 2005 The new Wallace and Grommit movie has me excited. I shall have to go see that.
