Has anyone seen "Beasts of the Southern Wild"?
I saw the trailer and was intrigued by it.

Super Man....hitchhiking! :facepalm:

It's a Scorsese film, it's not under the radar.

Maybe it isn't. I don't know. I just haven't ever heard anyone talk about it. I wouldn't have ever known about it until I caught it on some random movie channel late at night.

I haven't heard of it. Jenson has, he is big into Scorsese and probably seen it at least 10x.

Well the whole government corruption plot has been done a million times in a million different ways, so there was nothing fresh about the film. I just thought the acting was ****ing fantastic and the action was pretty tense. I didn't feel the drag you say. Honestly, they could have added 30 more minutes of Denzel and Reynolds just interacting and I would have been happy.

I will say again that I had almost no expectations going in, thanks to some idiot friends. Movies that pleasantly surprise me tend to make more of an impact. The same thing happened with Thor recently. I didn't even care if I ever saw that movie. I saw it, it was good, now it's one of my faves.

hey, I know this is a little out there for this thread.......but I just gotta share....

stumbled across this a few weeks ago on some movie channel at about 2am. watched about 20 minutes and fell asleep. woke up next day and was very surprised to search and find it showing again so I set a timer. one of those soft porn things.
it was absolutley hilarious! I just had to see the whole thing. man its horrible, yet you can't look away!

for your viewing pleasure I give you.....

Red X is a severely underrated motion picture.

works for me. though I almost wish it didn't.

Ted was OK. Worth a Redbox, nothing more. Was only funny when the bear was cussing, smoking, doing coke, etc.

Saw this last night.
Wasn't the most cohesive film, but it was deeply emotional.
I enjoyed it.

Watching Hunger Games.

Kinda hokey.

Jennifer Lawrence is beautiful.

Take a book with adult ideas but written for tweens, then condense it down to what was a fast 2hr20mins and the result is not good. It just felt so damned rushed.

I did like the games themselves though.

With premium TV making more and more quality adaptations, I'd like to see what HBO or AMC could have done with a 3-4 part series per book.

She is. First time I'd ever seen her was in "X-Men: Origins".
Hawt.

Check out Winter's Bone. Seriously. It's on Netflix. She's a hell of an actress too.
