King of New York with Christopher Walken, David Caruso, Wesley Snipes, Larry Fishbourne and Steve Buscemi. Pretty good movie overall, totally had a similar aesthetic to the 1990 turtles movie, except with more nudity violence and dancing...

Rewatched Spiderman the first movie from 2002. Still a fun movie to this day, and its rather nostalgic for me since it came out when I was in High School.

The Walking Tall 2004 remake starring The Rock. It kinda felt like a Steven Seagal movie without Steven Seagal. Not bad, but the story differs a whole lot despite being a remake off the Walking Tall 1977 movie which in is a Holywood-ized telling off a real-life person.

I watched "Straight Outta Taxes". It's a documentary about a bunch of people in America that stop paying taxes. It's pretty interesting.

Excellent film, but yeah, really really sad to watch.

Fliming is set for next month. Everyone is returning sans Isla Fisher who is not into sequels so she will be replaced by another actress replacng her character and Daniel Ratcliff will join as an opponent and said to take place in Europe. I just hope it can still have twist and turns. I doubt we can get any surprise centered around the revelation of who the mastermind all along. Cant believe the lady agreed to keep quiet about it instead of arresting love or not.

It's certainly a relieved to see that this thread also includes movies that you've last seen instead of just movies you've seen strictly by the latest release date. (As I hardly go to the movies anyway.)

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: Turtles in Time (I also made sure to see the first two before it though, as I tend to be like that with sequels that I own.)

That's a shame, I love her. Why wouldn't she be into sequels? Does she not want to make more money?

It's always odd to see people put "Turtles in Time" at the end of TMNT III, since it was never called that.

I read she was interested in sequels, but further searching indicates she is expecting a little Borat so would be unavailable for a period of time due to mom duties. Lizzy Caplan is supposed to replace her. I do not know the actress. The is also a subtitle given with the June 2016 release date.

Never seen Mean Girls, Cloverfield or The Interview?

IMDB says the official title is Now You See Me - The Second Act. Caplan will also be playing a different character to Fisher's, thank God. Nobody can emulate her. Well, except maybe Amy Adams

Changed the subtitle already, have they?

Of the three you mentioned only The Interview. I am trying to place who she might me in the film.

Its hard to believe she was Shaggy's bubbly blonde girlfriend in Scooby Doo (2002). Its also hard to think Isla Fisher is Sasha Cohen's wife too.


Yes, it was mentioned it would be a separate character. I wonder how the switch will be explained. Going by storyline context you would think it would be like Katie Holmes and Maggie Gyllenhaal in The Dark Knight series instead of a new character. I am open to it.

Curious to see how this goes international and how Aurthur Tressler(Michael Caine)'s son (Daniel Ratcliffe) gets revenge of his own.

She's really funny. Hopefully she'll be a good replacement.

Yeah, they made her look so plain in that film too.

She looks so different. I guess its 11 years of aging and changing her hair color. Is it naturally brown or blonde? Her Scooby Doo character is a static stereotype. Not much to work with. Considering while it is making fun of itself they are attempting to add character in the film she would have more to work with in the role. Its kind of like Velma's boyfriend is bland but he at least breaks the stereotypical punk character.

I will look up the actress on IMDB to see what else I would have seen her in. Just because I am not familiar with someone does not mean the actress is not good at her craft.

Which one was Lizzy in Mean Girls? There was Seyfried in her first notable role, Rachel McAdams oddly still playing a teen then in maybe her second notable role of the time unless The Notebook came out just before this. Then the eternally underrated Lacey Chabert. I have only seen like three scenes and not really into it.

After a quick Google search, she is apparently a natural redhead and wore a blonde wig when filming Scooby Doo. Now that I know that, I can totally tell it's a wig.

She's Janis. I wouldn't blame you if you didn't recognise her in Mean Girls, she looks a lot different to how she normally looks.

I looked up her filmography and only have seen The Interview of all the roles she has done. The roe she played was the lady that recruited Franco at the beginning, a government agent. She was the fourth one in The Plastics cliche.I dont recognize her in stills from the film. I could name everyone else of note. Again, I am not down playing her talent just unfamilar with her. I will get a good idea with NYSM 2 as it is a demanding performance.

A blonde wig and a is a red head? I assumed she was naturally a brunette. I guess if a woman keeps the hair color long enough people will not know. Look at Jolie hiding her blonde hair and Geller her brownish black hair? I bet even fans of theirs dont realize the natural hair color.

Tonight I plan to watch High Noon. It is said to not be overhyled or u xerrated so I hope to see how it is.

This week I watched The Game, Zodiac and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I have now officially seen all of David Fincher's films. Those last three somehow slipped by my radar until now.
