samm Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Bin Jip. A corean movie. The main characters don't with one exception talk, so I was close to tap on my gf's nerves and talk during the movie. But I could resist, and very much liked it. If this was DnD, the main character would probably have taken some illusionist levels, or a class with hide in plain sight by the end.

Hurlshort Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 We took our 9 month old daughter to see National Treasure. Before someone flips out (again) it was a special movies with mom event at the theatre. They have it every Monday before noon, and the lights aren't dimmed and the volume isn't quite as rattling. It was pretty fun, although a kid was kicking my seat, but it's tough to complain when my daughter was ga-ga-ing. She slept through the first half, watched for about 10 minutes, and then I walked her around near the door for the rest. The movie was good, at least on a par with the first. Seemed a bit shadier with the history, but whatever sparks interest and all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurlshort Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I'm not sure if Rambo is even rental worthy. Maybe as a Rambo marathon. I watched Mr. Brooks - It was very good, better than I thought it would be. Kevin Costner was solid as a serial killer. Dane Cook was a good choice for his particular role, as in it was a satisfying conclusion. I can't remember the last time I watched Demi Moore. The Rocket - A Canadien tribute to Maurice Richard. I wish it was more of a documentary, it was really just a celebration of his talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreasyDogMeat Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 (edited) 10 3 to yuma. Not bad at all, although the whole male bonding thing went a bit too far. I absolutly hated this movie myself. Unlikable characters, completly unbelievable situations and events. The ending gunfight was beyond ridiculous. Supposedly the main character had a prosthetic leg and he was running a marathon, leaping off buildings, duck and covering like mad. The only positive for me was the setting, the costumes and camera work. Really felt and looked like the 1800s. Has anyone seen RAMBO yet? As someone who misses the old over the top action movies of the 80s like Robocop, Predator and all those crazy Schwarzenneger flicks I'm really looking forward to Rambo. Especially after this 'R' rated trailer... (WARNING!! Very gory) http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=8M1KiXWWTxg.

LadyCrimson Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Harry Potter #5. Almost hated it the first viewing ... then after Googling Potter plot references and watching it a 2nd time, it became mildly tolerable. Nice dark atmosphere and camerawork, and a fun 'evil' character in that headmistress, but otherwise rather boring. And if you haven't read the books, it's not a good movie. The other 4, at least, allowed the non-reader to still have a fair entertaining time, in terms of a film series on it's own, with the 4th being the best one, imo. “Things are as they are.

Gorth Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Alien 3 DC It must either be a very long time since I've seen it, or the additional 30 minutes added something to it. It wasn't as awful as I remembered it. Quite decent, apart from the Alien itself, which wasn't exactly a convincing piece of cgi. “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

samm Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I'm a fan of superhero stuff, so I guess that's what appealed to me. Anybody know of any other good superhero movies? Donnie Darko? The episodes of Dragonball involving Super-Saya-Man? Batman begins? Unbreakable? I dislike superhero movies (or any other kind of superhero-stuff), so I'm probably not the best advisor but the above, I found quite good.

Musopticon? Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 X-Men 2 No, seriously. It's a great adaptation of an overly convoluted and overmarketed comic. I also suggest watching the Hellboy animations, the team was working really closely with Mignola and they have next to nothing to do with the movie. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

Kor Qel Droma Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I, for one, really don't understand all the hate for the Hellboy movie. I'm kind of eager to see the sequel as well.

Pidesco Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I've been watching the X-Files for the first time since I saw them on TV, and I've been having a great deal of fun, although it's not quite as awesome as I remembered, of course. Except for Gillian Anderson, who's even better than I remembered. She really is a great actress.

It's pretty decent, the book was good too and they seem not to stray to far from it that's true but the individual stories don't git as much attention as they do in the book but that's because movies have an exponentially shorter time frame then a book has.
