Movie Talk!!

[nessfan]

Has anyone here seen the movie Dances with Wolves?

 

[Vinylic.]

I'll be watching Jack and Jill in a few.
For now, I bet it will be pretty funny.

I haven't gotten onto movies lately, but now that i've gotten a good Blu-Ray player I seem to get addicted to buying them rather than DVD even though they are way cheaper nowadays.

Anyway, I'm definetly going to start checking out some good movies again, any good ones? More specifically any "mafia" type movies are nice, like Streets of Blood or James Bond I guess. ★

Watched a pretty cool movie tonight called "Buried". Was bored and decided to Netflix something that sounded interesting. The entire movie literally takes place inside a box, or rather a coffin, with the main character being buried alive and having no recollection of how he got there. Definitely liked the ending to it, seeing as I love being surprised while watching a movie instead of things just being predictable. Recommend it.

 

[DerpDaBerp]

Is that the one with Ryan Reynolds? I remember a CSI episode kind of like that and was like, "been there..."
I'll still watch it if it's on though lol

I tried to watch that for like 20 mins. And by that I mean really tried/gave it a chance. Couldnt finnish it at all. Maybe its less boring later on in the movie.

Yes it is

Ha, not gonna lie, it was super boring for about the first half hour or so. It starts picking up a lot more once things actually start happening to him, and you get an understanding of his situation on the outside.

I've heard rumours that there's going to be a hollywood film of doctor who.

Pixar's Brave trailer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEHWDA_6e3M&feature=g-logo&context=G134f8LOTsks0gAAAA

sorry to say I'm much less interested now



then again, I'm no longer in the generation these are focused toward and I'm sure it will be quality regardless. but, been there done that

 

[Luigitoilet]

I don't really think one should completely discount a movie based off of a trailer.

 

[DerpDaBerp]

Well sure, but when is a female protagonist not fighting against her culture's paradigm of how women should behave. Hopefully it'll be a lot more than that.

I'm sure it won't be bad, but the vision seems narrow

 

[Luigitoilet]

Oh yeah, maybe. It doesn't really matter what the basic story is though, it's how it happens. Pixar's films don't have super brilliant plots or anything. They are just really well made.

I don't like the trailer either but that's because of the slapstick parts and dumb gags.

 

[frotaz37]

Well sure, but when is a female protagonist not fighting against her culture's paradigm of how women should behave.

Sigourney Weaver as Ellen Ripley.

And that's pretty much it.

 

[Roboturner]

There hasn't been a single Pixar film that was a flop. I think they'll pull through again, again, and again

 

[Peeze]

Not financially. But honestly, Cars 2?

 

[Vinylic.]

Indeed. But be aware about pixar's "A bug's life."

It was mixed with major positive/negative reception from the audience.

 

[DerpDaBerp]

lol, a bugs life was soo good


didn't Antz come out very near then too?

 

[Mota]

I'm really looking forward to Brave, It's Pixar after all.

Seeing the reviews for In time I wasn't going in expecting much. Honestly, I enjoyed it a lot more then I thought I would, possibly because my expectations were low. Loved the concept, but if you think about it too much, it doesn't completely work. Liked the highlighting and contrasts between the rich upper class getting richer and the those in the underclass and low stuck there.

warning foul language!!

I think I've seen this movie a hundred times and it never gets old.

 

[DerpDaBerp]

mark it zero

 

[Olikus]

saw insidious. Probably one of the top 3 scariest movies I've seen. Dunno but I just had a bad feel trhougout the whole film that made me scared. If you like scarie moveis I recommend it.

 

[DerpDaBerp]

Insidious is totally worth watching. Very nonchalant the way it scares

 

[Roboturner]

This past week I was a movie *****... I thought all of them were very good. First time watching all of btw

The Untouchables
The Usual Suspects
Blow
Requiem for a Dream
Forrest Gump
Inside Job
Scarface
Reservoir Dogs
Sleepers

 

[DerpDaBerp]

For some reason, Forrest Gump is one of those movies for me that I find brilliant the first time round but really can't stand sitting through the whole thing again lol. Kind of like Napoleon Dynamite

 

[Luigitoilet]

I used to love Forrest Gump as a kid.

it's an okay movie...it's just so schmaltzy. I hate schmaltzy.

I actually don't like most of those movies Roboturner posted even though I know most of them are pretty well-regarded. I love Requiem for a Dream but the rest of them I can take or leave.

 

[Roboturner]

that one and the usual suspects stood out for me. kevin spacey's acting is phenomenal in the latter

 

[Mike2]

Spoiler

 

[Rychu]

And the fandom rejoiced

 

[Reizilla]

It's going to be terrible.



Tangled is the best Disney movie.

 

[Mike2]

This movie is going to be so good! Prologue has amazing reviews already!

 

[Luigitoilet]

I'm going to make a DKR thread soon so you guys don't poison up this one with Bat talk.

anyways, Tangled wasn't that great, definitely not even close to being one of the best Disney movies.

I miss the old art style they originally had going. wish they would have stayed with that

I would watch a 10 hour version of Tangled if it looked like that.

 

[DerpDaBerp]

damn son that's pretty.

I think I've said this before but I've actually been really impressed with children's movies lately.
How To Train Your Dragon was quality out of left field. Cinematography isn't something I really notice in CGI much but damn, HTTYD was really well "shot"




lol, when I say that I feel like that dorky kid outside the theater in The Fighter (when he took her on the date) that's all like "I hear the cinematography is beautiful, snarf!"

 

[NTA]

Watched the latest Final Destination film a few days ago. I thought it was an alright movie. I didn't have very high expectations because if I did I would be a bit more disappointed. The deaths were really suspenseful but I didn't like the acting at the beginning on the bridge. I liked the effects. Just wish I could've seen it in 3D :D

 

[Airgemini]

I like it a lot. The ending was great. The best death was the first.

[Peeze]

^Saw that yesterday. Looks disappointing.

 

[NTA]

:o But going back in time is never disappointing

 

[Rici]

I never really get the suspense in the Final Destination movies.

I mean, you get told at the beginning that everyone is going to die ... and then they do.
They always remembered me of Tom and Jerry. Or at least some of the ways that people died(like getting spliced by barb wire).

 

[Airgemini]

Most of the suspense just comes from wondering how they're going to die. I think. It kind of sucks knowing the plot of the movie after seeing all the others, but most people just come to see how they die anyways.

 

[Mike2]

Tdkr trailer is out! :D
