I've heard good things. My wife went to high school with one of the actors.

DO NOT WATCH.

I watched "The Visitor" tonight. I didn't think I'd like it but it touched me like I couldn't believe. The story was amazing along with a not so happy ending.

Bullshit! It is what it is - accept it. Check logic at the door as is with all movies of this type. Be your own judge.

Ok

Watched:

My Name is Nobody - awesome but the bar slap scene is better in "Trinity is Still my Name"

Orphan - crazy good!

Year One - fell asleep

Push - ok but not quite

Star Trek (2009) - Excellent

Angels and Demons - Excellent



Tonights feature - Trick 'R Treat

Oops! forgot one!

The Burrowers - "C" to the "R" to the "A" to the "P"!

I saw Awake last night. It was decent. Would have been better if there had been a plot after the heart transplant, where he tried to divorce his wife without her getting any of his loot.

I don't like movies that make me hate Jessica; it's just not right.

Could Hayden possibly BE a worse actor? His wooden approach and delivery are perfect for George though.

I don't see Hayden as a terrible actor. He's just a one-note actor. He's at least as good of an actor as Kevin Costner.

Well ****, I don't hate him THAT much.:D

Just watched Midgets vs. Mascots. I must say the premise is fricken awesome. As for the movie itself it was pretty damn funny and outrageous all the way through.

Yep. He would not directly answer any questions about the movie at all. He either is the most modest human being of all time and doesn't like the attention - or he's kind of poed at the movie makers for portraying his life. I read up on his life though - it was a pretty close match to the movie - w/ the obvious hollywood shine to it of course.

I expected it to be atleast to be as good as the first but it wasn't...and the first was def. not a masterpiece.

Just watched United 93 for the first time in a long time.

Excellent movie...just so goddamn heartwrenching and sad. Ugh.

Bruno-couldnt finish it, thought it was boring honestly and not funny. if you like dicks circling your tv go for it. stopped it after about 30 min.

I actually thought borat was funny too

debating whether to watch Bruno or not. The trailers were hilarious. Borat was good.

Reporter from Baltimore was on with Petro earlier and stated that Oher didn't like how he was portrayed in the movie.

Just watched Thirst (latest from Chan-wook Park). If you liked his previous flicks definitely give this a rent as it's more of his usual madness in vampire form.

I watched a really bad, Japanese-type vampire movie the other day. I think it was "Blood the last vampire" or some such nonsense.

For some reason I rented that one a few weeks ago as well. For a good part I thought it was pretty entertainingly shitty but it eventually shifted to just shitty.

The Blind Side was solid...nothing ground breaking but i enjoyed the movie.

Maybe you'll get farther than i did....i heard it was hilarious but for some reason i thought i was wasting my time. I thought Borat was funnier, this movie just made me feel stupid through 30 min, the dicks didnt help

Just saw a commercial for Johnny Depp's 'Public Enemies'...anyone know if it's worth renting or not?

When everyone at the bar turned in to a vampire, that's when I said, "well, game over".

And the ending was about as anti-climactic as old-school, HBO softcore.

I haven't seen it yet but it's Michal Mann so I am definitely looking forward to it.

I watch Funny People yesterday.... it was a lot darker than I expected, and I thought it was pretty damn good. Was a little long though, seemed to drag. Although, I did watch the extended DVD cut, so I'm not sure if the theatrical version drug as much.

I watched it last week and thought pretty much the same thing.

It was solid. I still don't think Depp was the best choice to play Dillinger but he did a good job. Definitely worth a rental if you haven't seen it. I may even buy it.

I finally saw Star Trek-great movie, wish i saw it in theaters

Just watched it on Blu-Ray the other night. It sold me on Blu-Ray, heh.

Watched this last night. Dare I say that the Nicolas Cage that I used to know and love is back? This is the first Nic Cage performance I think I've enjoyed in quite a while. Somewhat reminiscent of Leaving Las Vegas, as far as his performance goes. The film itself was rather good as well. I'm not sure exactly how to describe it. I've seen others compare it to Harvey Keitel's "Bad Lieutenant", though I cannot verify this as I've not seen the movie with Keitel. At the same time though I've heard others say this version is extremely different and in fact more loosely based on the one with Keitel rather than entirely based on it. Either way I enjoyed this one and Nic Cage is primarily the reason why. Judge for yourself I guess.

It had a gorgeous transfer and sound for sure

well I watched Terminator Salvation, everybody said it was going to suck and maybe that lowered my expectations, but I liked it. It wasn't James Cameron good, but it was good. Although, I didn't care much for the ending because that probably would not end well. But other than that, I thought it was a nice addition to one of my favorite movie series. I am a big fan of the Terminator series btw, so maybe I was being homeristic. But 3.5 stars out of 5.

ya, I really liked it too

You have no credibility here.



















Wanna watch Dick Tracy?

Inspirational sports movies are almost always cliched. But I enjoy the cliche.

Watched this on my PS3 via Netflix last night.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0912593/

I'm watching Terminator Salvation later today for the first time, every sign seems to say 'dont expect a great movie' despite Bales presence & top drawer effects.

Still looking forward to it though.

Basically the movie doesnt have as much Bale and John Connor story as you'd think. Oh and the end is kindve LOL but i still somewhat enjoyed it

oh come on, I'm a Terminator fan, maybe that helped.

So am I, but T:S was bad. Not T3 bad, but still bad.

TS was total shite.

the ending was terrible, but I enjoyed the movie. But I wasn't going in expecting a masterpiece either.

lie with me

HOT movie....don't watch it with your parents, watch it with a girl you're ****ing.

Agreed....had alot of potential...i expected more cool terminator shit. the only bright spot was the dude that was in avatar and he couldnt save it (t3 def. shouldve never happend)

Interesting. I checked out the summary on IMDB. I might try to check this one out.

Going to the 10:35 showing of Boondock Saints 2 tonight.

I'll wait to rent it, the first one was ok

I'm bored, and feeling a little lonely. I'll go surround myself with strangers and let my mind go numb for a few hours.

Nothing better to see, i assume you saw blindside

if you were ever thinking about renting The Ugly Truth, don't. It sucks bawls

Yep. I saw The Blind Side on opening night. LOVED it.


The Boondock Saints 2 started off completely cheesy (even for my standards), but it had enough funny parts to make up for it. The plot was weak, and the acting sucked, but it really was comedic gold in some parts. Definitely worth a rent, but don't go see it in the theater.

Never saw Hellboy. Just watched it last night. Awesome.

I liked Hellboy better than the Dark Knight.

Sin Nombre.

It was alright, hour and a half, right up my alley timewise. Could've been a little more ruthless but it got the point across. Fit in with the Gangland maraton I watched yesterday as well.

Watching The Goods, Live Hard Sell Hard. It's appearing to suck about 20 minutes in.

The movie did suck

Finally watched Watchmen last night. Aside from a little pacing problem, I liked it. Based on the word of mouth (fanboy backlash against average viewers etc.) I was expecting a mess that didn't make much sense. I expected to think it was way too long, but the pacing problem seems to me it needed more time in the slower parts for reflection which is contrary to the laws of action movies, but not contrary to how a person processes when they read. A tough adaptation for sure.

well that's just stupid, sorry. Unless you are a hardcore Hellboy fan I guess :doh!:

Great take & i'd heard the same things before i rented it... 'hard to follow', 'only if you follow the comic', 'doesnt follow the comic the right way' etc.

But i stepped right into it & really liked it... i even kinda diagree about the pacing, to me each slower scene was rewarded with a further bizarre revelation in the story

It didnt feel like any Superhero movie ever, +1 for originality.

They're both good in their own way. I think DK get's more love because of Ledger's early demise.

Just saw Hellboy 2. Liked it even better, especially since it had some of the best fight choreography I've ever seen. Also, Abe Sapien rocks.

Dark Knight really was not that great a movie if you discount Ledger's inhumanly great performance as Joker. The pacing was so-so, the plot was predictable, Two-Face wasn't menacing, Bale was annoying with his constant growl, the action scenes were lifeless, and the movie went on too long.

Each word of this post is more useless than the last, if you ask me.

DK took 'Superhero Movies' to a brand new level IMO.

No, not really. It's just that 3/4 of the way through the Dark Knight I was looking at my watch wondering if they were ever going to wrap it up. It was good, but by the time it ended I was ready for it to be over.

Watched Watchmen: The Ultimate Cut on blu-ray tonight. SWEET.

Better than theatrical?

Absolutely nothing worth watching this Christmas except for Sherlock Holmes.

This has to be one of the worst holiday movie seasons in my memory.

I'm looking forward to seeing Invictus, which opens Friday.

Yeah. The 'Black Freighter' material is woven into the film nicely and it helps with my main complaint that the theatrical cut was paced too quickly (which seems absurd for a cut that was 2 hours and 40 minutes, but hey, Watchmen is some dense stuff). The Ultimate Cut gets the film closer to the fully-realized artistic statement that it should be.

Me too.

Goddammit! Now I have to buy this one too. :cuss:

****in lame.

I bought The Black Freighter when it first came out on Blu-Ray and then Watchmen when it came out, and now there is one w/ it interlaced?

Did they cut in the "Under the Hood" stuff too?

You had to know it was coming.

To me it doesn't really matter, but I didn't think about that at first.

I still haven't seen the whole movie. I watched the first hour when I first bought it and haven't seen it since.

Kind of like the Lord of the Rings movies. I love 'em, but damn... that's a serious time investment.

I'll have to get that Ultimate cut. I'll probably watch it once right away, and not see in again for maybe a year or two. Part of it is the fact that I just like knowing I have it.

Sitting in a theater for that shit, for THAT long?

No...****ing...way, Jose.

I declined to buy Watchmen when it came out because they had already announced the 5-disc Ultimate Cut release that came out a few weeks ago. I patiently waited.

The 'Under the Hood' material is NOT woven into this cuto the film (though it is included on disc 3).

Non Sequitur at least tangentially related to Movies. A little snippet of music from the trailer for Eric Bana's 'Love the Beast,' an apparent auto-documentary of him growing up rally racing with the same car [the beast in question], . . . anyway just a little snippet of music from it was driving me crazy with remembrance and yearning to hear more. So I spent the morning trying to track it down. Surely it's on one of my favorite albums, . . no? Surely something I bought this year, . . . no?
Turns out I'd heard it once, . . . a year or so ago, . . when I saw that youtube of that guy doing all them urban mountain biking trickety-tricks.

Band of Horses - The Funeral. Great song, and if it stuck with me like that more than a year later, better put the album on an Xmas list.

I saw "Public Enemies" last night, it was better than I expected, gave it 8 stars. It has some good shootouts and quite a bit of violence, if you remember liking the "The Untouchables" from 1987 then you would like this film. The only negative I would say is the audio. I've got a terrific 5.1 system in my home and of course every amp is different, but on my Sony I usually listen to DVD's on volume 20 - 28, and I had to turn it up to 42 to understand what they were saying. Unfortunately, when there is a shootout the sound will blow you away, I wish they would get the sound more leveled on these newer films.

Since I only go to the movies about once every 7 or 8 years, next week I actually can talk about a DVD I've seen. "District 9" is coming out, and if your not even a big sci-fi fan like myself, you'll still enjoy this film for it's originally and special effects.

When i bought watchmen dc i also got tales of the black freighter free on a seperate dvd
