What's the latest movie you've seen? - Page 33

Wanted

This movie kicked my ass all over the place. By far the best summer blockbuster so far, and maybe even my favorite movie of the year so far. I highly recommend everybody go see this, it's definitely a breath of fresh air. The action is tight, the humor is great, the dialogue is snappy, and James McAvoy's narration (and acting) are excellent. Plus, and awesome score by Danny Elfman.

Watched the Cinema Insomnia of My Favorite Brunette yesterday, which featured great performances by Bob Hope and Dorothy Lamour. I thought it was kinda cool that Lon Chaney Jr. and Peter Lorre were in the movie as well.

Wall-E.

It made me cry.

Super Mario Bros. I always liked this movie, even though it's barely relatable to its namesake. However, the one thing about it that really bugs me is that they made all the goombas reptiles. Are we really supposed to believe that the king was the only fungus-descended person in their world?

Sex and the City

I'm seeing Wall-E on Sunday. I'm psyched for it lol.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm. How did this movie make only 5 mil in the box office?

*cowabunga14* · 06-28-2008, 01:21 PM

Watched Yongary, Monster of the Deep yesterday, which was an amusing Godzilla rip-off. And I didn't think the dubbing was that bad.

After that, I watched The Cars That Ate Paris, which was a confusing but entertaining horror comedy. I thought the concept was kinda cool as well.

Jurassic Park 3

Wow it did that bad? I'm amazed. It was pretty low budget though I mean the animation wasn't any better then the series. I saw it in theaters I loved it.

...for some odd ball reason I don't remember that movie in the theaters.... it was bad ass though. Love it.

Watched I Am Legend at my friends, I loved the alternate ending.

Moreso than the original, I'll bet test audiences wanted things to go out with a bang.

*Spitfire* · 06-28-2008, 07:41 PM

Saw Mongol the movie about the origins of Khan. It's in Mongolian with subtitles. The movie is filmed really well and the story is decent. They did a good job of making a boring environment seem not only as it would be at the time but interesting.

I recommend it to anyone who can handle subtitles.

**Jester** · 06-28-2008, 07:51 PM

I've been watching Animaniacs lately, not a movie, but plenty of movie parodies...

Budget was about 6 million. I wish I was old enough to have seen it, think I was about 2 or 3 when it came out.

**Jester** · 06-28-2008, 08:38 PM

I remember seeing trailers on TV....but I didn't see it in theaters, I have it on DVD though. Watched it as part of my DCAU marathon a little while back, only thing left out was "Mystery of the Batwoman."

*Spitfire* · 06-28-2008, 08:43 PM

I don't blame you. God that movie was bad.

Is it bad enough that you recommend I not buy it? It's the only animated Batman movie I don't have, and I'm itching to see it even though I'm sure it'll be bad.

I bought it for 10 bucks off amazon despite being told how bad it is. I'd say rent it but if you can find it for cheap just get it to cure the itch. If you're like me you like having everything so buying it isn't a big deal.

**Jester** · 06-28-2008, 09:11 PM

I haven't bought it, I borrowed it from a friend and winced the whole way through.

Yeah, worse case scenario it'll look nice between Subzero and Batman Beyond Season 1.

Tell me a couple of things that make it that bad.
