Blarghagh Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 I expected it to be terrible. This is my secret weapon for enjoying virtually all forms of recreation. I expect it to suck and thus I am pleasantly surprised. Yeah, this is an awesome technique. Even surefire hits become better! I watched The Last Boyscout on DVD. Bruce Willis in loser mode is always fun. That's why Die Hard 4 doesn't compare to the other Die Hard's. Die Hard 4 John McClane is a superhero, whereas in the other's he's a loser who always gets stuck in the wrong place at the wrong time. (Although to be honest I enjoy number 4 more than number 2.)
Kelverin Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 Gardens of the Night (2008) - Disturbing and well done I thought. No Country for Old Men - The pay channels here in the US show it all the time and I can't stop watching it. Terrific movie, a modern classic. Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones (2002) - Hayden Christensen sucks, enjoyed the begining and end, the middle of the film is ......lacking From Russia with Love (1963) - Grant/Bond scene on the train is the highlight to this excellent installment in the Bond franchise. I watched The Last Boyscout on DVD. Why I love this film is beyond me, but I do. J1 Visa Southern California Cleaning
Walsingham Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 Don't diss the Last Boyscout. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.
taks Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 Don't diss the Last Boyscout. i won't, but it dissed me in a bad way. ahem... taks comrade taks... just because.
taks Posted June 30, 2009 Posted June 30, 2009 Up - great little animated movie. indeed. we liked it. taks comrade taks... just because.
Hiro Protagonist Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 I did a ****load of downloading two nights ago seeing our isp will be resetting our monthly allowance this week and used up all our download allowance for the month. Actually, I trippled our monthly usage in one night. Unfortunately, the girlfriend was pissed as hell (she does share trading at home) and our isp dropped our speed down to dial up speed. So it was either Transformers 2 or a chick flick last night and you probably guessed what we saw. We watched Coco avant Chanel last night starring Audrey Tatou about the French fashion designer Coco Chanel from humble beginnings in an orphanage to weatlhy Fashion Designer. Not too bad, although I nearly nodded off halfway through. Would have liked for them to show about the perfumes and fragrances but they concentrated on her clothing fashion. Also, they left out everything that happened with her in WWII.
Pidesco Posted July 1, 2009 Posted July 1, 2009 The Lawnmower Man terrible Terrybly awesome, you mean. "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.
Gorgon Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 Watchmen. I thought it was awesome, haven't read the comic so I have nothing to hold it up against. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
ShadySands Posted July 2, 2009 Posted July 2, 2009 Watchmen and Traitor. I had never even heard of the Watchmen until this movie came out but I really liked it. Traitor... it's got Don Cheadle and Don Cheadle = Awesome. Free games updated 3/4/21
Shryke Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 Watchmen. I thought it was awesome, haven't read the comic so I have nothing to hold it up against. i just finished the comic for the first time yesterday kinda interesting to see little bits and pieces that you don't see in the movie - like excerpts from the old Nite Owl's book also i'm kinda glad they did change the ending a bit for the movie - because in the comic, it's a bit.... well... silly when your mind works against you - fight back with substance abuse!
Meshugger Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 Thinking about all the remakes that are being done at the moment, i think that it is time for a remake of "The Three musketeers". And like all new remakes, it has to be dark, mature, violent and contemporary. 150 million guaranteed at the Box Office.

Pope Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 Anyone seen Public Enemies yet? Looking forward to that one very much.
Gorgon Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 Going tomorrow I think. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Kor Qel Droma Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 Meh, after Terminator: Salvation I'm getting a little sick of Christian Bale. Watched Transformers 2 the other day. There's some giant robots, but I wasn't really wowed or anything. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
Pope Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 Meh, after Terminator: Salvation I'm getting a little sick of Christian Bale. Me too, but I still like Depp a lot.
Tigranes Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 We watched Coco avant Chanel last night Where is it out?? Let's Play: Icewind Dale Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Icewind Dale II Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Divinity II (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG1 (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG2 (In Progress)
Blarghagh Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) Meh, after Terminator: Salvation I'm getting a little sick of Christian Bale. Me too, but I still like Depp a lot. I think it's just overexposure. Right after the two Pirates sequels Depp had a kind of backlash too. Bale just has the added effect of some of his prima donna behaviour coming out so people dislike him a bit more as a person too, even subconsciously. Even if that was blown way out of proportion. I've worked on sets once or twice if anyone walks into the shot that isn't supposed to be there they deserve a good yelling at, and this was a freaking director of photography who did it repeatedly. He should have known better. Watchmen. I thought it was awesome, haven't read the comic so I have nothing to hold it up against. i just finished the comic for the first time yesterday kinda interesting to see little bits and pieces that you don't see in the movie - like excerpts from the old Nite Owl's book also i'm kinda glad they did change the ending a bit for the movie - because in the comic, it's a bit.... well... silly You mean the giant squid that looks like a vajayjay ? I watched The Dark Crystal. It seems to get slower as the years go by, but still a good movie. Edited July 8, 2009 by TrueNeutral
Hiro Protagonist Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 We watched Coco avant Chanel last night Where is it out?? You have to go to an arty farty cinema (Dendy Cinema's in Australia), not the usual megaplex cinemas like Hoyts and Greater Union.
Kelverin Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Cape Fear (1962) - Soooo much better than the remake, not taking anything from De Niro's performance. The original is a better flick Thunderball (1965) Goldfinger (1964) J1 Visa Southern California Cleaning
Pope Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Pineapple Express Meh, I laughed when James Franco had his leg through the windshield , but that was about it.
Aristes Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 We watched Taken last night. It was a great flick! I mean, I laughed the last half of it at the over the top violence, but it was still funny. I bet that's one teenage daughter who tells her dates to get her home on time! "You don't want my dad to be angry!"
Hiro Protagonist Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Red Cliff and Red Cliff II. What a marathon, watching that last night. lol. Fantastic epic story telling.
Aristes Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Watched Gran Torino. Oh my goodness. It's soooo funny. I need to buy this film.
