that Ali film looks awesome. I'm a huge Ali fan/buff.

Such a great movie.

Just watched Parenthood with my girl last night. Its been since 1990 since I seen it. Liked it when I was a kid. Still pretty good after all these years.

I think it might do well because of the fact that it's old fashioned. It felt almost radical and edgy to see Tin Tin carrying a gun and firing off shots as well as brawling with adults.

heh, interesting point. Although, they never said Tintin's age, he was obviously a teenage boy. They could not have gotten away with that if it had been live action or set in modern times.

Because the Academy is bourgeois and a film about Mixed Martial Arts is going to get overlooked.
I personally thought it was the best film I saw in 2011.
Nick Nolte beasted that role.

Absolutely, incredible movie... a must see.

I had a chance to see Paul Rusesabagina at speaking engagement at a local college once & didnt go, i've always regretted it, i'm sure it would've been inspiring to say the least.

In case any of you are interested, my wife really liked a book called "Left to Tell" that was written by a girl who went through some harrowing experiences as she survived the Rwandan violence. It's a very religious book so if that kind of thing bothers you it's probably not for you.

Public Enemies is on USA.

How in the hell did I miss this movie? WTF was I thinking?

Gotta like Albert Brooks as a villan in Drive.

I'll see The Devil Inside one night this weekend..

I saw John Nash (from A Beautiful Mind) give a lecture several years ago. He discussed math. 98% of people were expecting something, well, more interesting.

The Lincoln Lawyer was surprisingly good.

Right, but I was surprised that it didn't even make all that much money in theaters. Bad marketing?

I agree with you though...probably best movie I saw in 2011.

Yep, I really liked that one. The soundtrack is great.

The Devil Inside is apparantly pretty bad with an awful ending audiences are booing...

Mi4 was good. A little less action than I thought but it was ok.

Nevermind... reviews are some of the worst I've seen.. wide open ending too -- I'll wait for netflix.

Insidious was pretty great. Sort of a Poltergiest ripoff,but still very well done.

Not sure if I had mentioned this before but it's worth triple mention:

Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen.

good movie

Saw Funny People. Wasn't terrible. Seth Rogan did a good job. Adam Sandler didn't suck too hard. Not bad

ROFL

Audiences giving devil inside a cinemascore of F, yet it's tearing up the box office. paramount laughing all the way to the bank.

I just saw a commercial for Scorpion King 3. I didn't know they'd make a Scorpion King 2. Scorpion King 1 was notably awful.

Who the hell is buying this garbage?

I'm out of the loop...I thought TinTin was the dog.

I watched it already. It's been on Icefilms for a while. It's pretty lousy. But entertaining in a mindless "whatever is on TV" kinda way.

That's Rin Tin Tin.

50/50 is a very good movie.

50/50 is a very good movie.

Q

I was thinking of watching it until I looked it up on Rotten Tomatoes. 7%! Yikes.

http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_devil_inside/

Anyone have a strong opinion on 'The Killer Elite'?, going to watch it tonight.

I'm thinking it'll be awesome, the cast is an obvious thumbs up & when you throw in the fact that its based on a true story, i smell a winner.

$3 well spent?

I gotta say, I was pretty let down by the Hangover II. It was the exact. same. ****ing. thing as the first one.

Meh, not a bad movie but tons of cliche and I predicted the ending about 10 minutes in. definitely not worth a 8.3 on imdb

I do want Hardys traps tho.

Watched Black Swan earlier on HBO.

Weird movie. She was a ****ing nut bag.

If I could have Mila Kunis for one night and never have sex again, I'd do it.

Uh yah, definitely.

I thought the movie was great.

Cmon quikssurfer, you're prettier than that.

Thanks Patrick..

"High Tension" - 8/10

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0338095/

I love a good creepy horror movie though. Definitely not for the kids.

OMG What fantastic shitfest

Saw "Everything Must Go" starring Will Ferrell.

Don't know if anybody saw it. But it was actually a brilliant performance by Ferrell.

Any word if they're coming out with the third film in the 28 Days/Weeks collection?

This was an EXCELLENT flic, i highly recommend it, i'd read several reviews saying in effect 'its muddled & hard to follow', it couldnt be less true.

SAS, high powered mercenaries, arab sheiks... DeNiro is great, Statham is as badass as ever & Clive Owen is perfect in his role.

Hopefully not, 28 Weeks was garbage.

While I agree it couldn't even touch the first I don't think it was garbage. The opening scene was incredible. The camera angles, acting, and music was perfect.

Went back and watched The Serpent and the Rainbow on Netflix instant. Still awesome.

Crazy, Stupid Love is a pretty good flick. Definitely worth a date night movie.

Heh, liked that flick.


I caught the last half hour of Centurion, starring Michael Fassenebnder. Going to have to catrch it from the beginning.

Watched Haywire last night.. It was okay. Definitely worth a rental.

Saw 'Drive' the other day. Nicolas winding refn is a stud. Cool movie. Tons of it was shot right behind my house too.

My daughter actually wants to see this. Looks good, I thought.

Hell of a movie to score your first time out, considering all the co-stars she has in it.

I watched it the other day as well. Honestly don't know what to think of it.

There wasn't much of anything you hadn't seen somewhere before already.
But then, a lot of it was nice to see woven back together in a new patchwork of storytelling.
Hated the matchup of driving sequences to realism. I swear there was a point in the opening sequence where he upshifted 8 times and was doing all of 30 mph.
Not sure what I think of the extended stare-offs. I get that it makes Gosling this fascinating cipher and Mulligan the inquisitive and fascinated outsider. But it was like half the movie. But again, I don't know about Gosling, but I could do worse than spend an afternoon looking into Mulligan's eyes.

It's like a Tarantino knock-off wanted to make a silent [with orchestra score] homage to Miami Vice.

Ides of March is excellent. Well worth a rental.

That's a great book, by the way. The book is a pretty academic ethnobotanical investigation of the zombie phenomenon in Haiti.

This. Best opening scene of any action flick I can think of off the top of my head.

Went to see Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close this weekend. Hanks and Bullock definitely played supporting roles to the kid, who was absolutely amazing. No bawling in this one like I thought I might, but there were a few tears trickling down my face at times.

Haywire was good. The best thing about it was that it didn't try and EXCITEMENT everything up by using quick cuts and bizarre camera angles - when Gina Carano had a fight scene, the director was smart enough to just turn the cameras on her and watch her kick lots of ass.

The plot was overly convoluted, though, and it was hard to keep names straight and tell what was going on sometimes. It's also - and this isn't necessarily a bad thing - as much a suspense and intrigue movie as it was the action flick it's being marketed as.

But Gina Carano does kick some serious ass.

ya, I wanna see Haywire. That chick is totally sexy to me and she could definitely kick my ass which is a weird turn on for me.

I'd love to listen to that session with a psychologist.

I thought the same thing. She did a great job and was easy on the eyes (her thighs will make your mouth water).

The only thing worse than the movie Abduction is the band Journey.

Watched 3 movies over the weekend

Super 8.....meh,definitely not for me.

Moneyball...Good movie although I think it's a little overhyped.

Warrior...Predictable yes but I loved it,one for the collection and watching again.

Went to Red Tails this last weekend.

Writing, storyline, and acting are over done a bit but the areial scenes are good.

Just finished watching Hachi about a man and his best friend.Two thumbs up just a great movie but fair warning if you love dogs prepare to get a lump in your throat.

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/_oQhk3_7enM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Moneyball - Actually made me kind of care about baseball again. But I'm over it now.
Real Steel - much better than I expected though I would rather
Friends with benefits - chick flick but Kunis made it bareable. No, that isn't a typo. :)
Fright Night - better than expected but I still prefer the campy original. Colin Farrel was a great vampire though.
The Debt - to be honest, it was good but got boring in parts. The story itself is very good.

Cool, can't wait to see this.

I don't know. The whole Bruce Willis inclusion seems off to me.

That through me off too, I was expecting Duke from that point & he aint Duke from the first movie.

Welp, guess I don't need to see that movie any more.

Real steel was good. It was worth the buy to me. I will get tired of it soon though because my son loves it and has already watched it three times.

Very good movie.

I'm going to watch 1911 tonight, its about revolutionary China & stars Jackie Chan, i'm looking forward to see him doing something besides hamming for the camera & doing implausible stunts.

It looks like it'll be a meaty role for him & if the box isnt lying, very precise in its period depiction, 'no production expense spared'.

This looks better than the first, i'll pony up $9.

The scene on the cliff face is BOSS.

I've been meaning to give that a try, but I moved on from Jackie Chan when I saw Ip Man. ****ing great movie and a really nice sequel.

Today I've watched Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla

And

Zombie. The shark vs. Zombie scene was horrifically awesome.

You Sir, have interesting tastes in movies.

Different to say the least.

Watching Resident Evil Apocalypse now.

I just saw Godzilla at the nearby Vintage and now I intend on buying them all and watching them all.

I've always been a zombie movie nut.

I am a big fan of GI Joe, the cartoons & movie. I just hope Bruce Willis doesn't disapoint in the movie 2. He was Die Hard & bad ass, then he made Armageddon :spock: & that's all I got to say about that.

Watched The General last night. Buster Keaton kicks ass.
