*cowabunga14* · 02-19-2008, 02:14 PM

Watched This Film Is Not Yet Rated yesterday and it was very interesting. There was a lot of good points and opinions in it.

Later, I watched the Akira Kurosawa film Yojimbo. It was great and there was lots of action.

*tone-master21* · 02-20-2008, 08:36 PM

I just finished watching the movie Jurassic Park.

*cqb101* · 02-20-2008, 11:04 PM

Gone baby Gone. It was excellent. I can't wait to see some more directorial work from Ben Affleck. He's a great director and I think he's gonna be huge in the coming years.

That's one movie I HAVE to watch whenever it's on. I never get tired of it.

Yeah, he's a better director than actor. Casey is better than he is.

I just watched Gone Baby Gone.... Awesome. I'm watching We Own the Night now....Not nearly as powerful. Still good though.

*cowabunga14* · 02-21-2008, 02:38 PM

Watched a lot in the past few days...

The Silence of the Lambs, which was good. I've been wanting to see this movie for a long time and I'm glad I finally got to.

Kwaidan, which was some decent Asian horror. I liked the fact that it had an anthology feel to it.

Blade Runner: The Final Cut, which was awesome. The Final Cut is probably my favorite version of the movie and I recommend it to everyone.

Bram Stoker's Dracula, which I liked. For the most part, I was interested.

*raphael_is_cool* · 02-21-2008, 04:51 PM

There Will Be Blood
Probably not to everyone's taste but I thought it was very good. Daniel Day Lewis proves again why he has become such a legendary actor and Paul Dano does very well too. A nice slow-burner of a film and I really liked the musical score.

*cqb101* · 02-22-2008, 01:50 AM

Death of a President

Very little known film, but definitely worth seeing.

I saw it a couple weekends ago an I totally agree. DDL's performance is what will keep me coming back to it over the years. The music was very unique, I thought.

*cowabunga14* · 02-22-2008, 03:14 PM

Watched 2001: A Space Odyssey yesteday and it was pretty good. The visual effects were cool and I liked everything else about the movie.

After that, I watched a made-for-TV horror movie called Evil Never Dies and it was OK.

*Mecha Cow* · 02-22-2008, 04:38 PM

Picked up Children of Men the other day to see what all the fuss was about. I wasn't blown away by it, but it was a pretty good movie.

愛 · 02-22-2008, 06:26 PM

I watched Sugar & Spice tonight at my club's monthly movie night. The Japanese movie, of course, and not the American cheerleader movie. It was a pretty sad movie. Our vice-president cried a little. But she's Japanese, so I was expecting that.

*Mr. Snackpants* · 02-22-2008, 08:39 PM

I just got back from Vantage Point.

Bad movie.

Worn out plot (president assassination), bad acting, terrible writing. The vantage point idea was ok, it basically replays the whole incident back a bunch of times but adds more to the end each time. The problem is what they kept replaying was pretty bad. I still can't get over how bad the acting and writing was. Towards the end I couldn't stop laughing, there were so many unintentionally funny scenes/lines. I heard people walking out saying how much they liked it, blah blah blah and it blew my mind because people kept laughing as the day was restarted back to noon. It was also very predictable, my uncle and I figured the "twist" out almost immediately.

Don't go see this this. If you insist on seeing it, sneak into the theater, download a bootleg, wait until it's on dvd and then download it, or wait until it hits HBO. I can't believe they marketed the **** out of this piece.

I've honestly never heard of it. Now I know to stay away.

Just got done watching Rescue Dawn, it was really good.

Watched American Hardcore earlier, as stated in the "DVD purchase" thread.

Yeah, I could tell this would suck balls. You have to tell me something though: you know that douche in the TV spots that goes "We have to respond!!!" in a really anoying voice? How hilariously bad is he in it?

Oh, man. Seems like such a good movie to see for the horribleness of it all. It's awesome when movies that take themselves seriously turn out so bad. Also, according to firefox's built in dictionary, dialogue isn't a word but horribleness is. WTF?!

Haha, yeah I was sick of the commercials with that guy, Luckily it was like his only scene.

So much stupid **** in the movie. These are all things that made me lmao, in like the last 20 mins alone.

just watched An Extremely Goofy Movie today. man I'm a big fan of Goof Troop

CudleyCowlick · 02-23-2008, 12:38 AM

Just caught "Juno" on my birthday, and I was floored. This was absolutely the most off-beat high-larious movie I have seen in a long line of off-beat high-larious movies. From the guest appearances of Rainin Wilson and Cut Chemist right off I was sold, and then they just kept dropping The Melvins references and that line Juno had about how "after experiencing the raw power of Iggy & the Stooges, everything else just seems kind of... cute."

This movie was tailor made to make me laugh. It's good to see something fresh on the big screen in this era of preconceived, already-done BS.

*cowabunga14* · 02-23-2008, 01:16 PM

Last night, I watched Blood of Dracula and it was alright. The make-up effects were neat.

Later, I watched the 1977 version of The Island of Dr. Moreau. I thought it was pretty good.
