trulez Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Ultraviolet http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0370032/ A mindless action movie with hollow charactares who you can't relate to, and rather dull story. And don't get me wrong, I like vampire movies, and action (Underworld), but this one was just sad. There's also so many illusion breakers in the action scenes that even if you wont care for the characters or the story it's still not even a good action movie.

LoneWolf16 Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Dead Birds Pretty low budget horror flick that wasn't so much scary as it was unsettling. Some neat ideas, not the best but not the worst acting, creepy creatures, and a nice surprise ending, which leads to some rather disturbing thoughts. Have to pay attention to the story though to really get it. I had thought that some of nature's journeymen had made men and not made them well, for they imitated humanity so abominably. - Book of Counted Sorrows 'Cause I won't know the man that kills me and I don't know these men I kill but we all wind up on the same side 'cause ain't none of us doin' god's will. - Everlast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenghuang Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Nacho Libre, Advanced Screening. Funny ass movie, had me in stitches all the way through, still wondering how my little town got picked for an advanced showing. It should be noted though that I've been told that I have awful taste in movies. It should also be noted that I was told this by a film major so I'm not sure if it really counts for the masses.

LadyCrimson Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 24, first season, in a 2 day marathon. 3rd time I've watched it, gets a little better each time. Still like 2nd season best - which ironically, is the only one I haven't yet bought on DVD. “Things are as they are.

Volourn Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 (edited) "I just got done watching the entire Buffy the Vampire Slayer series, from begining to end. Grrr. Argh." I'm actually doing this right now. I'm near the end of season 5. It reminds me how there is very little in teleivison that comes even comes close to the 'Buffyverse' series (both of them). Awesome stuff. I'm also currently watching Angel on Space. Wesley is easily the best character ever to be seen on television. Also, anyone who think Buffy gets worse as the series goes on is wrong. It gets better. Going back, and watchings easons 1, and 2 (espciially season 1) is almost painful comapred to the level of acting found later on. BUFFY + ANGEL 4 EVAR! (the show not the characters; they had their chance but they blew it) :cool: Edited June 18, 2006 by Volourn DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

Kor Qel Droma Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 As much as I don't agree with anything you and Hades post Volo I am guilty of owning both series. Although I though season two and three of Buffy were really good. Last night I was up late watching Fistfull Of Dollars. That Clint Eastwood is a badass. Jaguars4ever is still alive.

Volourn Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 (edited) "Although I though season two and three of Buffy were really good." They were good. Believe me, if I didn't think seasons #1-#3 weren't good, I would ahve given up on the series. My problem is comapring them to later seasons. Watch the later seasons then going back to watch season 1 is rather painful. It's obvious that the actors (not to mention customer deisgners, directors, and so learned on the job. If Season 6 Sarah Michelle Gellar did Season 1, it would be much ebtter... and, if Season #1 SMG did Season 6, it would come off not as well (espicially dealing with her death and subsequent ripping from Heaven)...

Anastase Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 has anyone ever seen these movies: The Holy Grail What do you think about these movies? I love Monty Python stuff. Best part of Holy Grail was the killer rabbit lol. All of it had me in tears though. I actually didn't watch it until after I'd seen Princess Bride..and I realized the makers of that probably geared a lot of stuff towards THG. I've read the Princess Bride book too..the movie is WAY better. My hubby was trying to get me to watch BSG. I guess the first season is not as good as the rest (like most long series). I'm trying to get into watching it but it's been slow going Also I REALLY need to go see Xmen 3..I loved the first movies and watched the cartoons religiously as a kid. Can't wait to see Jean Grey as Phoenix :D Wolverine's my favorite character, but I'm excited about them finally putting Beast in there. I've also never seen all the Angel episodes. I caught a few here and there, but I was a huge Buffy fan so it was hard to watch a spinoff that almost never had her in it. Now that it's been a while I'd like to watch them I suppose. The debate between people on what's better, Buffy or Angel, has always cracked me up I must say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlshort Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 (edited) I just watched "The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada" and enjoyed it tremendously. It was a a good cowboy movie with excellent acting. I recommend it highly. I also watched "16 Blocks" and thought it was decent. Bruce Willis was interesting, to say the least. It was a decent action flick with good acting. If you don't enjoy Mos Def, it might be painful. I like the guy.

That's a shame. The cartoons started airing in '92, in other words when I was a kid. Your profile says that you were born in '72, that means you were twenty when the first X Men cartoon aired. My apologies if I'm mistaken, but I noticed this after wondering what your age was when you were talking about watching the X Men cartoons as a kid after mentioning you were married.

Basically I've just been picking up whatever catches my interest from their Previously Viewed DVDs because they cost a negligible amount more than a rental.

Fenghuang Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Dang. Oh well, spent less than five dollars on it. I think I'll still watch it out of masochism and spite. Then if it's really bad I can slit my wrists with the disc afterwards. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
