Just finished watching Iron Man and it was maybe a tad overrated but still quite entertaining. The blu-ray disc was pretty ****ing impressive with sound and visuals.

Just got done watching The Gathering, Sasquatch Gang and The Promotion. All were pretty average.

But, man Christina Ricci is sexaaayyy!

There's just something about her. Have you seen Black Snake Moan?

:)

I can't honestly say I'd have been as strong willed as Sam's character was in that film.

Ahem.

BSM is really a very, very good film. It's a love story. A ****ed up love story, but a love story nonetheless.

Finally got my wife to watch it.

I've not seen BSM, but I have seen stills from the movie. :)

I noticed in the Gathering that wherever they were filiming it must have been pretty nipply. :)

I saw Nick & Nora's Infinite Playlist last night and it was OK. The music was great and the story was decent, but the ending was kind of uninteresting in it's predictability.

who cares?

Looks like Ricci lost some weight for BSM? She looks great normally, but she looks skinnier from the pics.

Just put BSM on the Netflix Que....anyone seen The Woodsman? with Kevin Bacon

The Woodsman is really a very good film. But I'll warn you, if you don't want to be emotionally challenged, don't rent it.

Is it a sad movie, or make you think? I know its about a pedo trying to get his life back to normalcy after screwing up, but has a real hard time with the "outside" accepting it?

I didn't find it sad. It challenges you because it makes you almost sympathetic to a pedophile. It makes you look at certain situations from a POV most are not comfortable with.

The Brave One - Horrendous. Stupid. Pointless. Predictable.

Layer Cake - I liked it a lot. It does, however, prove that heist flicks following LC are cookie cut.

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang - Pretty good. I liked the movie even if it was a bit odd in parts.

Smokin' Aces - Meh.

I am Legend is on HBO now. Is it any good?

Don't get me started on how horrendously bad that movie is and how the alternate ending is a half step in the right direction and how it's even more absurd that they're doing a prequel to it.

Also, don't mention Akiva Goldsman to me either.

Just saw Sunshine, interesting movie, intense at times.

Damn it, I had hope for that movie...****.

Saw Body of Lies today.....okay, nothing special.

also saw Quarantine today, mindless but watchable.

The trailer for The Unborn is creepy as ****.

I liked Sunshine, for the most part. Say, 7.5/10.

Tough to find a decent Sci-Fi flick these days though.

The end was pretty crazy esp with that "guy"...took me a min to figure out wtf was going on

if you loved the book, you'll hate the movie. It doesn't even remotely follow the book at all. I was extremely disappointed because it's a damn good book and they should be banned from movie making for coming out with that pile of crap.

I actually screened the film for my theatre when we got it. The guy who built it up and I were watching it late at night and we were a bit spooked when the random flashes started appearing. We thought we spliced something wrong.

Overall, it was a movie that grew on me afterwards. I was like WTF but at the same time, didn't hate it.

Honestly, I think I would of liked Sunshine better if it wasnt for "that guy" and was purely a Sci Fi flick instead of Horror blend.

Instead it was just okay for me. I had to look on wiki to see what hell was going on with the plot after I saw it.

Yeah the flashes of the face was a bit freaky and i think the guy part was wack....a little strange, it may have been better without him imo

First time I saw "Sunshine" was on DVD with my amp and speakers cranked, the sound alone made the film. Recently I saw it again on one of the movie channels with just the TV speakers, it made a big difference but I still enjoyed it.

Besides Sunshine, I liked both The Descent and Cloverfield. I haven't seen Quarantine but I did see the original Spanish version titled REC, it's pretty good. It free on YouTube, comes in 9 ten minute parts with the English subtitles. The Descent is about the group of woman that go cave climbing in the south, kind of like a modern Deliverance.

I plan on renting "The Strangers" tomorrow, the reviews have been OK. I haven't found much to rent the last couple of months. My last few rentals have been Smart People, the Bank Job, Sex and the City, Leatherheads and Vantage Point. Nothing great in the bunch.

I love The Descent. I saw it in the theater with a bunch of people screaming at the top of their lungs. First, it gets you with the claustrophobia, which is intense, and then the crap really hits the fan.

Ya know, I must have recommended Smokin' Aces to 5 people and not one of them liked it either. Weird. I'm usually pretty good with these types of movies and I loved absolutely loved it.

Glad you liked the others though. Layer Cakes is definitely a keeper.

I loved the Descent. My favorite horror movie of the last few years. I can still freak my girlfriend when I make clicking noises. LOL

Hey, I liked Smokin Aces. I didn't see the ending coming, but maybe I'm a dumbass.

Just saw the Happening....

I think two girls, one cup had more artistic value........

M Night has bottomed out.....what a horrible movie.

Decent concept....no twist...horrible acting....TONS of major plot holes.

Horrible Third Act.

The setup was so cool, then BLAH.

Smart People - I liked what they were going for but too depressing.

It did leave me craving some Thomas Hayden Church. And I did like the message even if it's worn.

Finally saw some movies this weekend.

Incredible Hulk - very good. equal or just slightly below iron man

Walk Hard: Dewey Cox Story - Loved it. stupid but thought it was hilarious. Best part was the take on the Beatles.

The Heartbreak Kid - Thought it was funny. Pretty solid movie.

Night at the Museum - Knew it was going to be bad and expected to turn it off. I think it was bad but strangely enjoyed it.

I should add a movie must really really suck for me to not like it so my take is normally pretty optimistic.

Just watched a couple flicks, nothing new but...

The Strangers - blah....feels like its been done before, but somewhat entertaining

Rescue Dawn - I really liked it.

I feel the same as you folks do regarding the Descent. However, another CP poster (Quikies) and I can't believe there isn't one peek of nudity in that movie. I mean 5-6 naked women in a cave and not ONE teet? Un-f'ing-believable.

For as bad as I expected 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall' to be, I really enjoyed it.

**** it. Grandma's Boy teh rules. I forgot how funny it was

Linda Cardellini is HIGHLY underrated.

Shes sneaky hot.

Is anyone else really interested in "Let the Right One In."?

Here's a review.

http://movies.nytimes.com/2008/10/24...tml?ref=movies

Trying this...

Trailer..

<object width="450" height="245"><param name="movie" value="http://www.traileraddict.com/emb/6933"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.traileraddict.com/emb/6933" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="450" height="245" allowFullScreen="true"></embed></object>

Saw that after The Ultimate Trailer Show, instantly intrigued.

I've been waiting for it to hit my area for a while.

Can't wait.

What's that?

It's a show thats on HDNET or something like that i believe

Black Snake Moan, really good movie, suprised.

Samuel L Jackson needs to do more movies like that, or the type of role he had in it. Rather than the gay bs he does like the psycho cop next door, snakes on a mother****ing plan and jumper

Some movies I saw over the weekend.

Eagle Eye - I hated the ending, but it was cool up until then. I wasn't going in expecting too much.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall - Funny flick, could have used less penis shots though.

Nobody messes with the Zohan - Was pretty funny, I wasn't expecting it to be.

Yeah, Robert Wilonsky's new gig with them, after his mixed format interviews/trailers show from last year.

Sometimes themes [like the 1/2 hour of Newman/LaFontaine trailers after their respective deaths], often new stuff. The little extra is that he gives short reviews, or impressions of the movie, or some insider info [what the reception was at xx filmfest] before showing the trailer. Also, he ends the show with a classic trailer by request [Apocalypse Now, Citizen Kane, Adaptation, Batman, etc.].

I've seen it a few times at my parents on DISH, very enjoyable.

What about Scary Movies to watch this friday night? Any ideas?

Is The Strangers, any good? I am going to have my gf watch The Descent and maybe Jason vs Freddie since those two are the main horror movies i own.

Also....

Have you seen High Tension?

Its is a French film thats pretty crazy. Some people I know didn't care for it, but for the most part, everyone liked it.

Have not, may have to netflix it

There is a lot of blood, its a cool slasher movie.

ROFL gf hates that shit

I didn't like it, but I don't like slasher movies.

That said, as slasher flicks go, this was one of the better ones I've seen.

For Halloween, it's my opinion you should go classic.

1. The Exorcist.
2. Halloween.

I watched Poltergeist last night. Wednesday through Friday my wife and I will be watching 1 and 2 above, as well as The Exorcism of Emily Rose.

Sounds like a good idea too i watched exorcist last year at a friends, good times...

I have never seen halloween and i believe at best buy they had it cheap the other day

I picked Halloween up on Blu-Ray yesterday for $15.

HEY GUYS, I JUST WATCHED "HEAT"!

Honorable mentions for Halloween:

The Omen | Psycho | Alien | Rosemary's Baby

Again, or for the first time?

It's a joke that is only funny to me.

Actually it is poking fun at guys who want to discuss seeing an old movie for the first time.

Did anyone else like the Made for TV movie, "The Langoliers" by Stephen King?

I chuckled saul. That was a real random thread "I watched heat today" dated 2007

Anyone else ever seen this really cool flick called "Star Wars"?

Wolf Creek

If you're making fun of me for Poltergeist, you shouldn't. I've seen it a million times. Just brought it out for Halloween week.

GF's BF in college [I shit you not].

Us: "You've never seen Star Wars?!?!

Her: First word, star. Not interested. Second, Wars, boring.

My wife hadn't seen Star Wars until we watched Episode IV and V. She has no interest in seeing Episode VI apparently.

I watched Hard Candy last night. Creepily good. I really enjoyed the dialogue through out [/nerdyness].

I plan on watching Meat Train tonight. I love the freezone ondemand!

Great flick.

One of the best haunted house flicks of all time if not the best.

So the other night I watched "She Gets What She wants," a high school movie about two teen bitches going at each other's throats. It was quite entertaining. I loved it.

Kill me.

Divorce her immediately.

That movie screwed me up as a kid... that clown...

My sister had a huge Raggedy Ann doll, with the same striped arms and legs... that always say in a rocking chair. (So I buried it in the closet.)

And for years the sign-off TV stations used to do freaked me out. No way in hell I'd let it get to the static without changing the channel.

For that alone, I love the movie. When you get old and jaded, you appreciate the thing that used to spook you.

Anyway, lately I've been watching the X-Files. Can you dudes believe I never watched the X-Files? I'm working on season 1....awesome stuff!

Cool. It gets a lot better, before it gets a lot worse.

So, I'm going to get a Horror movie I've never seen before for Halloween and I've narrowed it down to three choices:

Near Dark
Prince of Darkness
In the Mouth of Madness

Thoughts? Suggestions?

I'd like to see this one. It's been delayed all to hell, but now it's getting great "internet buzz". I suspect it'll be out for next Halloween.
