The Grey was my idea.. Chronicle is hers... both look prettaaaah good.

One of my friends passed away with cancer last year so that movie really got to me. It was a very good film.

The movies based on the writers life. Seth rogan was actually friends with the writer when he found out he had it 20 years ago and he helped him through it.

That's what I liked about it. What are your buddies gonna say or do? It can't be gloom and doom all the time. They're gonna try to cheer you up and make you have fun. I really liked the back and forth between JGL and Rogan.

To me it was pretty believable. Lots of humor mixed with some genuine concern.

The last thing you'd want is your buddies getting all "weird" on ya.

saw Chronicle. it was that or The Grey and I'm a Stephen King kinda guy so went with Chronicle. wish I'd have chosen The Grey and waited for Chronicle on DVD. it wasn't terrible or anything, but I was disappointed. I thought the premise was cool, but the story didn't carry it very well.

a movie that's coming that IMO must be seen in a theater on the big screen is Promethius - a prequel to Alien. I can't wait! it's rare I'm super amped over a movie, but this is one. huge fan of the first two although they are so so different from each other....love 'em both. previews show the horseshoe shaped ship crashing, the one where they initially meet a face hugger in Alien. FYI if you've never seen the uncut version of Alien it's well worth watching.

not saying to go out and watch this or anything.....but....just finished watching Vampires Kiss. 1989 w Nic Cage & Jennifer Beals (yummy!). it was an absolute TRAIN WRECK....but I could not look away. there are scenes that I laughed out loud at and I'm really not sure if they were supposed to be funny. kept hoping to see Beals topless...didn't happen. but the laugh value of this movie is nuts. Cage is crazy. anybody else seen this laughable turd?

We watched The Grey tonight. I really liked it. Wouldn't watch it twice but it was worth the price of admission. Glad I talked her out of Chronicle.

Went to Sherlock HOlmes today. Boring.

Took my daughter to The Grey sunday, gotta say i dont see what the hype is all about.

There were too many spots that really dragged & some of the plot holes were pretty bad, Neeson gives his dignified & noble best as always... but it wasnt enough to keep me from feeling cheated.

The highlights were, of course, Neeson & the scenery, they did a good job of giving a sense of the beauty & vast scale of Alaska, though many of the scenery shots were as much CGI as the wolves.

Wolves were lame & the ending sucks.

Chronicle summary:

I remember the time I saw Chronicle. It was called Push back then.

The Guard, and Brendon Gleeson, is the shit.

I loved The Guard.

The Artist was a fascinating film.

As the credits appeared, I couldn't decide if I liked it or not. But, it's a week later and I'm still thinking about it. Very different in the age of 3D CGI and exploding freeways. I have to recommend this movie to those who enjoy good acting, great cinematography and something very much out of the ordinary. I'm on a roll lately, the last 4 or 5 movies I've seen have been extremely enjoyable.

Is the immensity of this thread the reason there are duplicate posts?

Most likely posting from a mobile device.

That's the theory that people in the Conference Reallignment thread were working under when they created the new Conference Reallignment thread.

Does this thread have AIDS now?

Watched "Drive." ****ing phenomenal movie.

But as a warning, don't buy into the previews. If you're expecting a Fast and Furious, fast-action movie, you'll be disappointed. It's actually a very cool, even-paced movie.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes was surprisingly good. I was definitely rooting for the chimps by the end of it.

"Give em Hell Malone". Good God.

They keep uing a sound effect from a Judge Dredd computer pinball game, lol.

Watched "In Time". meh

I loved it. I thought it was really well done.

just finished Midnight in Paris. I had no clue what this movie was about, and I was pleasantly surprised. Very original and well done.

Me too. It reminded me of watching the Star Trek reboot.

For those that haven't seen it yet, if you have a chance, make sure you watch "Machine Gun Preacher" starring Gerard Butler (this guy can act by the way). Fantastic movie. Very hearfelt and moving story. Its a true story too, which in my book makes it even more remarkable. Really can't believe this one has flown under the radar for this long. I really didn't know or hadn't heard much about this movie before watching, but boy I'm glad I did!! You won't be disappointed either.

I watched The Way Back.

I'll give it 6/10. If you want to cry, watch it.

Best Woody Allen in years.

i was hoping there was a thread like this, i'm about to watch "The Bank Job" on IFC on demand. Or should i not waste my time?

it's a good flick, based on a true story

Project x was pretty good. Really hilarious.

How old are you? Just curious. :)

I've heard that if you don't like it, you're too old to get it...

Anybody seen "A Man From Nowhere" foreign film.


Heard great things about it.

:D

I'm probably gonna get slammed for this....but we watched Rocket Man (again) the other day. from 1997. stars Harland Williams. that is funny right there! I don't care who y'are!

In the time of chimpanzees Shark Night was a baboon. The creeps weren't creepy enough, the sluts weren't slutty enough, the jocks weren't douchey enough, and the cliches weren't cliche enough. Piranha made this steaming pile look like A Dolphin Tale. Major letdown.

That movie was absolutely terrible.


At least I only wasted a buck on it.

I actually liked Warrior, Tom Hardy is a badass and is gonna rock as Bane. The ending was cheesy though.

I loved Warrior. didn't see that coming. figured it'd be same ole same ole. yes the ending coulda been better....but all in all I thought it was a very very good movie. loved the twists. for a while you were like...WTF? really good movie.

Carnage. A funny comedy about two families whose sons got into a fight. The two families met to discuss what happened. Two middle class NY families going at it for 1 hour and 30 minutes. Very, very funny scenes. Amazing cast

Kate Winslet, Jodie Foster, John C Riely, and Christoper Waltz.

The Yellow Sea. A South Korean action movie. Just watch it.

John C Riely makes me laugh my ass off.

"Win, Win" was pretty great. I caught it on cable because Paul Giamattii was in it, and nothing else was on.

Turn out to be pretty damned good. Watch it, if you get a chance.

The Yellow Sea is epic.

Watch it.

Any must watches on NetFlix?

I just finished Zombie Apocalypse with Ving Rhames -- not too bad.

Right now I'm about to watch the Langoliers.

nope, as a matter of fact I'm about to cancel netflix. They've doubled the price with no value to the customer to show for it.

how have they doubled in price? I'm no Netflix fanboi, but while the price did increase, it wasn't double.

IIRC, they raised prices 60 percent and forced you to go streaming OR dvd service. So if you wanted both, it went from $9 to $15 or something like that.

John Carter was enjoyable. I watched it with my 16 and 14 year olds. I found the 3D to be unobtrusive, in fact this is the first 3D movie I have seen that wasn't just blatantly horrible about that. I would have rather watched it w/o the 3D though. It wasn't necessary. I'll say that the movie isn't completely true to the source material, but it was true to the spirit of the books. If you want a decent family film to take your kids to, and they're too old for Lorax, I'd recommend it. My 14 year old son wants to read the books now and that's a great thing for a movie to do.

true, but it didn't double. And that extreme was only for those with 1 disc plans. Others were less severe.

-_- Not sure if serious???

That was probably one of the worst movies I've ever seen.

I've seen worse zombie flicks.

I didn't say it was great, just not bad.

oh ok, you're right it went from $9 to 17. That's not quite double, GOOD CATCH DUDE :thumb:

Warrior is a great movie, story, powerful acting, emotional, exciting.
The story keeps building momentum. I liked how it ended.

Gotta get that one for my collection.

The Artist: great performances from all 3 leads (including the dog).

Also, I'd sell my mother into slavery for the opportunity to sleep with Bérénice Bejo.

you can't even do that right.

it went from $9.99 to $15.98. And only for the most basic plan.

whatever dude, like I'm going to remember it exactly. Either way it went up significantly with no added value to the customer.

It seems close enough to double for me. :shrug:

Just saw The Awakening. I came away impressed. Cool cinematography. Really suspenseful.

I'm going to have to watch it again sometime to really figure out the story..

I can watch Last of the Mohicans x 1000 + 1 times. Love that movie.

the latest Muppets movie was kind of boring and disappointing.

So the trailers for Wrath of the titans makes me wonder if Clash of titans worth a watch. If it sucked I won't bother with either. It's got Neison in it so it at least has that going for it.

What say you?

Worth a watch for the special effects alone. I wouldn't go out and buy the $20 Blu-ray or anything, but I'd Redbox/Netflix it now if I had nothing better to do.

Just watched Dear Zachary. God damn is that a depressing movie.

It was a outstanding movie. Nolte nailed his character. It had been awhile since I actually got invested in a movie like that. Felt good.

Anchor Man 2 announced for 2013. That is all.

So, crappy movie part two.

You go to hell. You go to hell and you DIE!

Die in an AIDS plane crash

ROFL

Flags of Our Fathers was amazingly good. Letters from Iwo Jima was good too, but not as much.

Really enjoyed 21 Jumpstreet.


Watching Pursuit of Happiness now.

If you count all of Will Farrell's stuff, it's like Crappy Movie Part 27.

Stranger Than Fiction was good.

if you have no sense of humor, you won't enjoy comedies, unless you are batshit crazy.

Watched Three Musketeers tonight with the kids. My God it was H O R R I B L E. And to think they set it up for a sequel.

Everyone has a different sense of humor. Believe it or not, not everyone thinks Farrel is all that. Outside of STranger than Fiction all his movies have been garbage to me.

this is my favorite scene, if you've never seen it.

I know which scene that is without even clicking it.
