Gorgon Posted June 28, 2012 Posted June 28, 2012 Looks good, but a trailer is often a completely different animal. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Raithe Posted June 28, 2012 Posted June 28, 2012 Tyrion Lannister .... with a pocketful of Shrooms. Although I do wonder how much Peter Dinklage is aiming to make sure he's thought of for more then Game of Thrones now.. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
Kor Qel Droma Posted June 28, 2012 Posted June 28, 2012 They need to get their **** together and release it. That trailer has been online for a while. Jaguars4ever is still alive. No word of a lie.
Monte Carlo Posted June 28, 2012 Posted June 28, 2012 That seems to be seriously channeling Mystery Men... ...but they got the "Lightning Bolt" in so all is forgiven.
Starwars Posted June 28, 2012 Posted June 28, 2012 Felt pretty lazy the other day after work, so I re-watched the Big Lebowski (while of course drinking a white russian). It's kinda funny... I don't think the film is *that* awesome or funny. It's just kind of... pleasant to watch, kinda like the Dude himself. Just good to relax to and sorta have a chuckle about it.

Oerwinde Posted June 29, 2012 Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) ridley scott has been having some issues ever since black hawk down... kingdom of heaven was a mess, that robin hood movie.... i'm surprised prometheus turned out even halfway decent (i haven't seen it yet, but i've heard its not too terrible) Did you see the director's cut of Kingdom of Heaven? MUCH better. Some of the things I headscratched over in the theatrical are much clearer with the extra 40 minutes or so.

I hear nothing but endless love for that flick but I just thought it was kinda ok. Possibly just expectations were too high.

Lexx Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Watched the old Judge Dredd movie again a few days ago. It is... well... let's say it isn't worse than other action movies of that time. The story is a big cliche and the end is super cheesy, but other than that, I thought it was pretty watchable. Also watched the Wicker Man with Nicolas Cage yesterday. I thought the movie was good, but the end is just so damn lame. Also I think the german version is cut, because the torture wasn't shown. What a shait. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
Monte Carlo Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 The older Dredd movie might be dreck, but it's great-looking dreck. I thought the visuals were great.
LadyCrimson Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Also watched the Wicker Man with Nicolas Cage yesterday. I thought the movie was good, but the end is just so damn lame. Also I think the german version is cut, because the torture wasn't shown. What a shait. Oh god. The Wicker Man remake is one of the worst. Cage at his finest. The original is a better film....if a bit more dull...tho I still wouldn't say it's great. “Things are as they are.

Lexx Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 I like Nicolas Cage and most of the movies he is in. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
Gorgon Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 What's with Cage anyway. Gone broke ?. He used to be A list, only big budget things with an oscar chance, now he'll do anything. He's been in lots of genuinely good movies. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
LadyCrimson Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Oh, I like Cage too. His over-acting is priceless and I'll often watch a film just because he's in it. But Wicker Man was too much even for me. And yes, Cage had some income or property tax issues. But I think his bigger problem is that he apparently has a multimillion property/home buying obsession (15 houses/castles), as well as other mega-pricey habits. Lots of lawsuits were flung around as a result. Whether this still applies, I don't know. Could be paid off at this time and now he's just slumming/used to the easy packchecks. “Things are as they are.

entrerix Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 if you watch demolition man and judge dredd back to back then dredd becomes unwatchably bad by comparison. demolition man is great though Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game. I am there. and the other player is there. and it's just the two of us. and I put the other player's body in my van. and I am the winner. - Nice Pete.
Starwars Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Since I finished reading the Road, decided to re-watch the film version. It's pretty great as well, pretty faithful overall and what changes are there feel like they make sense given the difference in mediums. Some excellent post-apocalyptic imagery. Robert Duvall as the old guy they encounter along the way is a fantastic little performance. Something I really enjoy about the Road (both book and film) is that it really feels like the world is dying. Life is disappearing, the candle is burning out. There is no re-building, everything is just fading away. Bleak and effective. Listen to my home-made recordings (some original songs, some not): http://www.youtube.c...low=grid&view=0
Orogun01 Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 if you watch demolition man and judge dredd back to back then dredd becomes unwatchably bad by comparison. demolition man is great though Simon says it's mostly because of Wesley Snipes. I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.
Monte Carlo Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 ^ No, it's mostly because of Sandra Bullock in a very tight PVC uniform.
Orogun01 Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 I've never found her to be particularly attractive, her role in the movie was kind of cute though. BTW anyone knows how the three shells work?

Morgoth Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 God Bless America. It made me smile. Rain makes everything better.
Oerwinde Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Saw Chronicle. I loved it, but think it could have been better served as a traditional flick instead of "found footage". Some of the sequences worked really well, and the telekinesis angle allowed them to film things in a way that makes it closer to a traditional flick (which is why it worked as well as it did). Overall definitely worth watching. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
WDeranged Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) I just watched Iron Sky and I want more, it was a surprising amount of fun but I was mostly aware what to expect, I also liked the Dr Strangelove references. Edited July 4, 2012 by WDeranged
Labadal Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 American Reunion. Better than the last few American Pie movies. Started watching South Park epsiodes. An episode was about bullying in school and it was amusing. The second episode was about zip lining and it was the worst SP episode I have seen.
LadyCrimson Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 (edited) Tree of Life. I don't see the big deal about this film. It's very pretty, and yes it's "lyrical" and "spiritual." But watching 20 minutes of CGI "space" kaleidoscope/images set to new age music is a bit much to take. The real-actor portion of the movie, which is mostly in the middle, was better, with good actors and visual editing (there's not much dialogue) but overall...not my sort of thing. My mother might like it a lot tho...except she'd probably get bored by that first long "space" sequence and turn it off before they got to the part she'd actually appreciate. Edit: I do get that the film is trying to be high visual motion art with a spiritual "message" or whatever, perhaps, but ... eh...yeah, just not for me.

Morgoth Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Pretty was the only good thing about ToL, but in terms of narrative, it was Malick's weakest flick ever. I still don't know what this "movie" exactly was about. Rain makes everything better.
