Which Good Movie Have You Seen Recently?

[Cephalopod]

Just watched RED. Enjoyable if you just want a fun action flick. The plot is way over the top, but it's A Bruce Willis flick, nothing wrong with that.

Would you say that it was mediocre or average?

[Gelston]

Mediocre and average are the same thing. It is above average but below good.

[Rinualdo]

I enjoyed RED.

[NocturnalRob]

Would you say that it was mediocre or average?
Strong to quite strong?

[HannibalSW]

Inception. I don't watch very many movies lately, but I felt this was worth my time and I thought it was brilliant.

[GSIVMerchant21]

I really enjoyed Click with adam sandler.. I want to watch it again. It has a good story.

[Gelston]

Click was shit. It starts off funny, but gets way too sad at the end.

[Drakefang]

Bandslam...watched it while I worked out at the cardio cinema. Romantic drama about a nerd or something. Fuck if I know, but I kind of liked it. I added it to my netflix so I can see it from beginning to end. I doubt many of the macho men here would enjoy it, though.

I agree with this entirely. Saw it today.

[Fallen]

Outlander. Amusing Sci-fi/Fantasy

[Tisket]

Would you say that it was mediocre or average?

Mary Louise Parker ruined it a bit for me. She started out pretty decently then got very UNfunny toward the middle and end. I blame the writers.

But yeah, other than that...yippee ki yay, motherfucker. Watch it.

[Asha]

I was trawling this thread for something to watch and I don't think I've seen Click, so that's my choice for evening.
And cereal.

[Some Rogue]

Watching Ken Burns' The Civil War again on Netflix. Such a great documentary.

[Asha]

Somehow instead of watching Click I ended up watching The Pianist. :(

[Jayvn]

restrepo
this movie needs to win whatever award it's up for..

DVR'ed it myself. Great movie. I'd never seen/read any Harry Potter so my girlfriend brought over all 30 movies (or however many there are). Watched the first two so far, not bad. Looking forward to the rest.

[Cephalopod]

I was just pleasantly surprised by Date Night. Not at all what I was expecting.

[Delias]

Creation.

[Cephalopod]

And flipped the channel, and O Brother, Where Art Thou? is on. This is in my top 20 of all time, I think.

[ravashaak]

Still gotta see this one

[Cephalopod]

Damn, we're in a tight spot!

[NocturnalRob]

Well, ain't this place a geographical oddity! Two weeks from everywhere!

[Jorddyn]

Inception. I don't watch very many movies lately, but I felt this was worth my time and I thought it was brilliant.


I just finished watching this and really enjoyed it myself. Though my semi-ocd had me counting levels constantly.

[Delias]

Just watched "The Union: The Business Behind Getting High". Pretty good documentary, even if there are canadians in it.

[Fallen]

The Sunset Limited.

[Kid Danger]

Checked out "I am Number Four" last weekend in IMAX. It was ok. If I was 16 it would have been awesome. It's kinda geared towards the high school crowd.

[Nilandia]

I had a movie called Red Cliff show up in my Netflix "recommended" list. It's a John Woo movie from China with Tony Leung. Anyone seen it who can comment? It looks pretty interesting.

Gretchen

[Dyslexia]

I saw Rabbit Hole.

It's about as sad as you'd expect it to be, but pretty watchable. No frills shoe-string budget drama, may have even gotten dusty once or twice.

[LMingrone]

Unstoppable, since I'm going for a Railroad job right now. I barely ever sleep and this movie put me to sleep for an hour. I learned that I missed nothing in that hour. Don't watch it.

[DCSL]

Battle Los Angeles. More of a war movie than the usual action sci-fi. Not too bad, unlike the last one.

[LMingrone]

Just watched this. Part one is up and FREE:

http://vodo.net/zenith

Kind of a ripoff of Brave New World. If you have a spare half hour though, check it out.

Edit: It's on Youtube too if you don't want to DL a .torrent and stream it to your TV.

[Androidpk]

Battle Los Angeles. More of a war movie than the usual action sci-fi. Not too bad, unlike the last one.

Loved this movie.

[Ayamei]

I love westerns and the such, "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" is amazing, I watch it like once a month. I just finished the watching "The assassination of Jesse James by the coward Robert Ford" a couple days ago. I thought that was great too.

[Izzy]

Sucker Punch.

[Hips]

Finally got around to seeing The Fighter and really enjoyed it.

[Kid Danger]

Sucker Punch was like a video game. There is a quest in which the characters battle for a few levels, boss fights, a mystery item, etc. Very stylish but not much substance. Think 300 with hot chicks instead of buffed guys and you've got Sucker Punch.

[Gsgeek]

Yeah Sucker Punch overall was kind of mixed, and I was really looking forward to it. I did like the action, that was great , the soundtrack and music from it was damn good, and the women were hot. But the story/plot was weak with some of it just not making sense and the ending outright sucked. Overall mixed feelings with a wish they had done things differently and the movie would have been awesome. Anyway.

[Cephalopod]

Think 300 with hot chicks instead of buffed guys and you've got Sucker Punch.

Sold.

[Archigeek]

Sucker Punch was only half right: It had the Suck part down pat.

I'm making the early call: it's a raspberry award winner for this year. Stink, stank, stunk.

[RSR]

Sucker Punch has me very worried about the new Superman reboot with Zach Snyder at the helm. The fact that Christopher Nolan is producing it and Snyder isn't writing gives me some hope that it won't be terrible, but who knows.

-Richard.

[Stanley Burrell]

Hobo with a Shotgun. This is the first deliberately bad movie that is really good in its badness. I DL'd from Zune in HD because I'm lazy.

[Back]

Couple of Disney flicks.

Tron: Legacy. I liked it. Great art direction. Saw some Matrix influence, some 2001 Space Odyssey, and even a some Blade Runner as well.

Cool Runnings. Great heart warming story. “A gold medal is a wonderful thing. But if you're not enough without one, you'll never be enough *with* one.”

[4a6c1]

Back. 1991 called. They want that movie review.

...

Dont forget to tell them about Monica Lewinski and Y2K so they can get ready.

I don't think you missed a thing.

[AnticorRifling]

Limitless. I want that drug.

[Cephalopod]

Battle Los Angeles. More of a war movie than the usual action sci-fi. Not too bad, unlike the last one.

Just saw this, liked it.

[Bregus]

The Next Three Days was great. Best movie I've seen in a while, really suspenseful.

Gentlemen Broncos. If you like Napoleon Dynamite or Nacho Libre, or sci-fi novels, check this one out.

The Hammer with Adam Carolla. "Who hangs a heavy bag with toggle bolts?"

[Kid Danger]

Just saw this, liked it.

Same here. It got terrible reviews and some of the critiques are deserved but overall it's entertaining and worth the rental when available. Aaron Eckhart is very believable as a Marine Staff Sergeant.

Recently I've seen a very good Korean revenge movie called Bedeviled (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1646959/), I enjoyed Hereafter (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1212419/); Clint Eastwood can do no wrong as far as I'm concerned and finally found time to check out Solomon Kane (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0970452/). Solomon Kane wasn't bad. You can hardly tell it's shot on a smaller budget than many action/fantasy flicks.

[Asha]

Saw Limitless too. Was nearly as good as the book. Very awesome.

Watched 127 hours. Nearly collapsed into a pile of wax when he had to do the thing at the end.

[ravashaak]

Finally saw The Count of Monte Cristo. I'd highly recommend it, but I'm pretty sure I was the last one on this board to not have seen it.

[Latrinsorm]

Finally saw The Count of Monte Cristo. I'd highly recommend it, but I'm pretty sure I was the last one on this board to not have seen it.You probably were, but everyone should see it again. Jim Caviezel! :swoon:

[ravashaak]

You probably were, but everyone should see it again. Jim Caviezel! :swoon:

I don't recall swooning, but then again I don't have tits. Had I tits, Jim Caviezel might just be swoon-worthy.

[Drakefang]

I went and saw Sucker Punch.

I didn't go expecting anything but eye candy and it delivered. If you expecting anything else, you will likely be disappointed. The first "dance" scene was probably best but the trench warfare one was sweet, too. Most of the "dances" were good. As good as those were, the rest was pretty much as bad.

I call it worth getting on Netflix and possibly On Demand. In hindsight, I probably should've gone to see Battle Los Angeles.

[Stanley Burrell]

The Abyss. I barely remembered anything from it, but it is basically, like, set your mindstate to amazed by the first Jurassic Park graphics and then put the fear of yourself in Descent mode, sort of. Or don't do any of this, but this movie is like the beekeeper started a knee collection.

[Skeeter]

The fighter was excellent. I always enjoy marky mark movies, and Christian Bale has to be one of the best actors going now. He really gets into a role.

[AnticorRifling]

Saw Your Highness over the weekend. Take it for a stupid crude comedy and you'll enjoy it. Go in with any other expectations and you'll be disappoint.

[Warriorbird]

Solomon Kane wasn't bad. You can hardly tell it's shot on a smaller budget than many action/fantasy flicks.

I'll admit, as a huge REH fan and with no US release I expected it to be terrible but it wasn't that bad.

He could also pass as a secret Anticor relative.

Everyone in my family has blue eyes...but he does have a sweet hat and a decent haircut.

[LMingrone]

You have to watch some of the "behind the scenes" stuff. Bale is crazy (In a good way) . BATMAN.

All I remember is Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio's boobs.

[Drinin]

Watched Memento last night for the first time in about 5 years. Still a great movie.

[Suppa Hobbit Mage]

I watched Fracture and Frailty again over the weekend. Frailty is one of Bill Paxton and Matthew McCongaughy's best movies I think. Nice mind bender.

[Archigeek]

Watched Memento last night for the first time in about 5 years. Still a great movie.

A favorite of mine too, that I also rewatched in the last month. Good movie.

[NocturnalRob]

Agreed. I enjoyed it. Haven't seen that since it came out in theaters, I think.

[4a6c1]

Whatever you do AVOID WATCHING TRON. This has to be the dumbest movie I have seen in forever. Proof that Disney has nothing left and has finally caved into pandering to the suburban 13 year olds, Fast and Furious/Tokyo Drift crowd. What a disappointment! With those graphics it could have been so much more than an angsty little boy against the world story.


In other news Fair Game was fucking fantastic. So good in fact it made it to my top ten. I'm not sure about the other forms but if you rent from redbox you get to hear a few words from the actual valerie plame before the movie.

[CrystalTears]

You wound me, madam. :(

[Kid Danger]

Tron Legacy appears to be one of those movies that folks either love or hate. I didn't expect a masterpiece so I enjoyed it, warts and all. I agree Fair Game is a great film. No matter how you feel about his politics Sean Penn is still a skilled actor.

And those people are called Christian Bale fans.

[NocturnalRob]

Some people just don't fucking understand.
They're called 'parents.'

[WRoss]

Best Actors currently? Matt Damon and Leonardo DiCaprio. Call me gay or what you will, but those guys can play a role. Christian Bale is a great actor, don't get me wrong, but I don't think he is in the league with DiCaprio and Damon.

[Warriorbird]

Eh. You didn't mention the REALLY bad 2 Fast 2 Furious, which is so terrible as to be almost awesome.

He's just as much of a method actor as DiCaprio and Damon, as well as Alan Rickman, Gary Sinese, Gary Oldman, and Johnny Depp.

Thats like comparing apples with apples. They are all great and are in some of my all time favorite films. A few duds too but thats more telling of a long and storied carrier than anything.

[TheEschaton]

The fighter was excellent. I always enjoy marky mark movies, and Christian Bale has to be one of the best actors going now. He really gets into a role.

Dude, have you ever seen The Machinist? If you haven't, watch it, and it'll cement your opinion of Bale as a great actor. He lost like 80 pounds for the role or something crazy.

[Back]

The best Bale roles are easily Equilibrium, American Psycho, and Reign of Fire.

[Latrinsorm]

It's a little strange to me how gaining or losing significant amounts of weight has become linked with being good at acting.

[WRoss]

He's just as much of a method actor as DiCaprio and Damon, as well as Alan Rickman, Gary Sinese, Gary Oldman, and Johnny Depp.

How could I forget Depp? I just don't think Bale has proven himself, yet. Sure he has the potential, but he hasn't been knocking out top notch consistent performances for almost 20 years like Depp, DiCaprio, and Damon.

[CrystalTears]

How could I forget Depp? I just don't think Bale has proven himself, yet. Sure he has the potential, but he hasn't been knocking out top notch consistent performances for almost 20 years like Depp, DiCaprio, and Damon.
I don't think you've seen enough of his movies.

[TheEschaton]

Well, it's true, he's only been knocking out top notch consistent performances for 7 or so years.

[Cephalopod]

I'm not sure what the argument is here. Are people saying Christian Bale is NOT a good actor? He's been excellent in pretty much anything I've ever seen him in, and I never even saw the Machinist. (I did see him in Rescue Dawn, which he also lost a lot of weight for... also a good movie.)

If you are saying he isn't of the same caliber as Johnny Depp, Matt Damon or Leonardo DiCaprio... I think you're smoking something. He's not better, but he is definitely at that level.

[Cephalopod]

The best Bale roles are easily Equilibrium, American Psycho, and Reign of Fire.

I don't know if I'd say these are his best roles, but these movies are all great because of him.

WHERE IS CHRISTIAN BALE'S PENIS SO I CAN INSERT IT IN MY MOUTH?

[LMingrone]

Bale is amazing. Losing that much weight was part of the acting, he was playing a crack head. Depp and DiCaprio make movies unwatchable for me. "Oh. This guy again?".

[TheEschaton]

I think Leo is a good actor. Depp, meh, idc, he always plays generally the same character.

[Drakefang]

Leo never did a goddamn for me.

The rest I watch.

[diethx]

And those people are called Christian Bale fans.

Woosh. :(

[Back]

As for Tron: Legacy... yeah, it was vapid but goddamn was it beautiful. The only annoying part was the gay master bar guy. Otherwise everyone was like-able or even doable enough.

What I present to you now is an example of art direction at it’s finest.

It's bizarre he's almost see through. He goes from that to Batman. I'm guessing steroids.

[Stanley Burrell]

"Oh. This guy again?".

Smoke and mirrors. It's really just more Morgan Freeman disguised as a white dude.

[CrystalTears]

Depp, meh, idc, he always plays generally the same character.
Yeah because Edward Scissorhands, Willy Wonka, Ed Wood, and Captain Jack Sparrow are all the same character.

WTF

[Clove]

LMAO. The Mad Hatter, Gilbert Grape, Sam (Benny and Joon), Donnie Brasco, Sweeny Todd. The guy's got no range at all.

[CrystalTears]

The King's Speech was excellent. As if I needed another reason to like Colin Firth.

[Suppa Hobbit Mage]

Yeah because Edward Scissorhands, Willy Wonka, Ed Wood, and Captain Jack Sparrow are all the same character.

WTF


LMAO. The Mad Hatter, Gilbert Grape, Sam (Benny and Joon), Donnie Brasco, Sweeny Todd. The guy's got no range at all.

The Tourist I saw over the weekend, another good Depp movie. And anyone alive and old enough in the early 90's 21 Jumpstreet was a nice diversion for TV.

And lets not forget Secret Window, Once Upon a Time in Mexico, Chocolat, Sleepy Hollow, Blow, Platoon and opposite the woman I'd give a nut to get a piece of, From Hell.

[Suppa Hobbit Mage]

Oh I liked Ninth Gate too, a little slow but still he was good in it.

[Cephalopod]

Oh I liked Ninth Gate too, a little slow but still he was good in it.

I have no idea, but I really liked that movie. I saw it in the theater when it came out and liked it a lot. I also liked Secret Window, though, so you can take my opinion with a grain of salt.

Chock me up as someone who thinks Johnny Depp is pretty fabulous in everything he does, too, though. I think some people look at all his collaborations with Tim Burton and see 'oh, it's just the same old'... but really, his range just among Tim Burton movies is pretty exceptional.

I won't go as far with Leonardo DiCaprio, but he's turned out some pretty good performances over the years as well. Ranging from Gilbert Grape, Basketball Diaries, on through the Departed and Shutter Island.

[4a6c1]

http://seanpercival.s3.amazonaws.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/tron-legacy-hot-girl.jpg

Yeah, kudos. I was almost distracted by this. ALMOST.

[Delias]

I think Leo is a good actor. Depp, meh, idc, he always plays generally the same character.

I advise you to toss Donnie Brasco and The Libertine into your Depp library.

[Clove]

Or Nick of Time for that matter, he plays a very ordinary role opposite Christopher fucking Walken and kept his presence.

As for DiCaprio, he has grown on me over the years, though initially I hated him, he's proven himself to be a very capable actor. Even though I really didn't expect to enjoy Inception that much, I've found myself watching it over and over again largely due to his performance.

[crazymage]

Insidious=Awesome

[Cephalopod]

Not a new movie, but I just finished watching Triangle (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1187064/). Not so much horror as just a well-done mind-bending thriller. Not bad.

[Asha]

Gonna watch Triangle now. Cheers.

Super 8. Best movie of the summer, without doubt.

I can't watch that movie or talk about it anymore without hearing Peter Griffin saying it.

[Jorddyn]

Just saw "Everything is Illuminated".

I watched it because I find Elijah Wood ridiculously adorable. Fell in love with his off-kilter translator (Apparently, Eugene Hutz) who I think did an awesome job. And the scenery was freaking gorgeous. If Ukraine really looks like that, count me in.

Watched Domino again today. It made me want to watch the Manchurian Candidate and go hiking in the Mojave. And to a lesser degree, smoke cigarretes and wear handcuffs.

Here, let me help you with those...

[Gsgeek]

Go see Transformers.

I thought it was about the same quality as the previous one. It was ok for an action movie and enjoyable enough, just nothing special.

[Delarock]

I somewhat agree with you, except for the fact that I felt that the third movie fixed all of the problems I had with the second one.

Is it just me, or is 3D something that hasn't made any movies better? Lemme run a post about that.

[joehollywood]

They Live

I think that "They Live" could be every other movie you watch and it STILL wouldn't get old. Maybe with some "The Thing" thrown in for some total John Carpenter awesomenish.

[Tsk Tsk]

X-Men: First Class was pretty good, def worth seeing.

Battle: Los Angeles was surprisingly decent... was no Independence Day but one of the better alien invasion movies I've seen in awhile.

Love & Other Drugs... horrible disappointment. Based in 1996 but they had flat screen tvs and monitors... acting was sub par... just horrid overall.

[Kuyuk]

Super Humans on netflix is addictive.

Some of these people are amazing.

[DCSL]

The new Transformers movie. Michael Bay managed to NOT stick his dick in the movie and fuck the shit out of it this time. I hated the second one. This third one, in comparison, was excellent.

[Dugoar]

Not sure if anyone has posted this one yet: Dale and Tucker vs Evil

Saw this movie recently and it is hilarious!

Totally disagree with you.

The 3d was pretty horrid, the story was decent, but they started plot arcs, then dropped them with no warning, and the movie used duex ex machina at the end, and then just ended with no wrap up.

The battle scenes were awesome, but half the time, I couldn't tell if it was an autobot or a decepticon.

[Cephalopod]

Watching Jaws right now, for about the millionth time.

So, 1100 men went in the water. 316 men come out, and the sharks took the rest. June 29th, 1945. Anyway, we delivered the bomb.

Watched "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" last night, haven't seen it in about a decade. Still one very amusing movie.

Pandorum. This was a fucking awesome sci-fi flick. Pity it did so bad, they had a prequel and sequel planned. Anyone else see it?

Yeah, I loved that movie. I had no idea about the prequel/sequel though, and I am disappoint now that there will not be one/both.

[Parkbandit]

Despite the reviews.. I actually enjoyed the Green Lantern.

It might be more that my expectations for the movie were SO low though...

[Drakefang]

I thoroughly enjoyed Pandorum. I'd have liked seeing both the originally planned movies, as well.

Sucker Punch was exactly what I went to see it for, eye candy. I thought the first combat scene was exceptional with the rest trickling off to just very good toward the end. The problem with the movie was the scenes when she wasn't fighting. I give it a C+ but thought the "dancing scenes" were a B+.

Saw Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, yesterday. I've been truly impressed by the quality of the entire series. This movie was no exception. I think you could feel like something was going to happen to Dumbledore by the time you were halfway into the movie. He seemed distant. I've been trying to catch up to the current releases from Prisoner of Azkaban, where I had stopped watching years ago.

Battle: Los Angeles has been hashed already and while not a truly impressive movie, I really, really enjoyed it.

I'm trying to determine if I should watch the Adjustment Bureau, Unknown or The Eagle today. Any recommendation between those three?

[NocturnalRob]

I'm trying to determine if I should watch the Adjustment Bureau, Unknown or The Eagle today. Any recommendation between those three?
Never saw AB.
Unknown was fun, but was right on the heels of Taken, so it seemed a bit over the top. I would recommend this one of those three.
The Eagle...no.

I loved Taken so much, but I've been waffling on seeing Unknown just because we've had a lot of Liam-Neeson-kicking-ass lately. Granted, that's something I'll always be willing to see, but still... (that said, I have rewatched Taken so many times. I don't even know why I liked that movie so much, but I did.)

On Nikki's recommendation, I *coughdownloadedcough* saw Centurion. It was good, solid entertainment with some basis in history. I liked it more than, say, Clash of the Titans.

Also, I can't remember if I already posted it here or not... but 13 Assassins (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1436045/) was fantastic. A modern day revival of older-style Samurai movies. I enjoyed it thoroughly. As with pretty much any foreign film, do NOT get a dubbed version.

[diethx]

I've seen Taken a bunch too, and yeah it was awesome. Liam Neeson rocks so hard.

Current favorites are "Equilibrium" and "Scott Pilgrim v. the World".

Perennial favorites: "Big Lebowski" and most anything by Mel Brooks.

[leifastagsweed]

I just saw Horrible Bosses last night and laughed the entire time. Jason Bateman is the classic straight man. Hilarious!!!

[Cephalopod]

Current favorites are "Equilibrium" and "Scott Pilgrim v. the World".

Perennial favorites: "Big Lebowski" and most anything by Mel Brooks.

Pretty much all of these.

Equilibrium didn't get the attention it deserved (I feel) because it came out so close to the Matrix and the visual styles were 'vaguely' similar. It's such an awesome movie, though, and more proof of Christian Bale's overall amazingness.

Scott Pilgrim was great. Some of my uber-nerd friends didn't like it because it was too littered with pop culture references and memes. Fuck you.

Also, Kill Bill has been on some channel the last few nights. Even censored for TV, it's a pretty good film (both). Part of me wants to dislike Tarantino for some reason, but the rest of me just enjoys the hell out of his movies.

[CrystalTears]

True Grit (the new one)
I Saw the Devil (because Korean/Japanese horror is awesome)

[Back]

Echoing all of these. They should be in every movie library. I watch Kill Bill I & II about every three months.

I’ve been consulting other people about Sucker Punch. It seems the consensus is: If you like anime, strippers, giant demon ninjas, steam punk nazis, red dragons, orc infested castles, explosions, firearms, kick ass action scenes pumped up with a rocked out soundtrack, without needing a cohesive story line or in-depth characters... then this movie is for you.

IP Man was good, on netflix instant viewing.

[Parkbandit]

Captain America :)

Yea.. not sure where all the negative reviews came from.. it was an entertaining movie to me.

[Archigeek]

Captain America :)

I enjoyed the movie, but it was pretty shallow and predictable once you got past the whole "oh, it's not just nazis" thing. Still enjoyed it all the same.

Maybe it was a little less enjoyable because there are now entirely too many super hero movies out there. The market is super saturated.

[Cephalopod]

Sucker Punch was like a video game. There is a quest in which the characters battle for a few levels, boss fights, a mystery item, etc. Very stylish but not much substance. Think 300 with hot chicks instead of buffed guys and you've got Sucker Punch.


Sold.

Finally saw this. Liked it, for basically the reasons cited above. I'm firmly in the Zack Snyder fanboy camp. Good entertainment and good visuals.

[4a6c1]

I saw SuckerPunch too this week. I loved it, of course. High concept art disguised as low brow script.... and chicks with guns. What's not to love?

Adjustment Bureau was ok. Neat ideas but not spectacular.

[Jayvn]

Lawrence of Arabia... for those that haven't seen it..take a night sometime.. plan on sitting still for a while.... fucking great story

[4a6c1]

Yes! You know what else is fun? I like doing themed food and themed dress with the classics. My blue couch is famous for the tea I served at my Lawrence party. Primarily because black tea stains. But also because my tea was GREAT.

Micmac. A french subbed movie they played on Starz. Came in towards the middle. It is a Revenge Caper Comedy, but if you liked that one french movie with Ron Pearlmen, you will probably like this one.

[Fallen]

Not a movie, but a series which is about to wrap up next week on American TV, Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood. I can say that hands down it is the best anime i've ever watched, assuming the last episode doesn't do anything but conclude the series beautifully, which I expect it will. If you're a fan of the genre I highly suggest going through it.

I'm very nervous about the ending after the wtf-fest that was the ending to the other Full Metal Alchemist series. I haven't seen yesterday's episode yet, though, and if it went well they probably can't screw it up too bad with only one episode left.

[Fallen]

I watched 99% of the original, but I think I missed the last few episodes. I never read the manga (or any manga, really) so I had no idea it was so fucked up towards the end. What I do know is how awesome Brotherhood was from start to finish.

Democrat or Republican, Man or Woman – Everyone’s behind Paylin!
See the movie everyone’s talking about for yourself!
Backdoor dealings, scandalous foreign affairs and cross-party threesomes – politics doesn’t come any dirtier than this! In this 2010 AVN Award Winner for Clever Title of the Year, MILF star Lisa Ann plays Alaska Gov. Serra Paylin in her bid for the Oral Office. It's a sex-packed parody that will leave you laughing… when you’re not getting down and dirty, you betcha! 5 scenes. 104 minutes, plus 48 bonus minutes.

Scene 1: Gov. Paylin works on her foreign relations with two Russian soldiers – bending over backward to suck Sascha’s hard cock while Mick Blue pumps her curvy rear until they pop all over her smiling face and glasses!

Scene 2: While Paylin gets grilled by the press, her hubby Alec is busy breaking in their newest intern! After some tongue magic, Holly West hops on his lap and drops down on his cock ass first for anal cowgirl!

Scene 3: Decked out in her Miss Alaska sash and tiara, Paylin’s ready to get drilled! She treats her husband’s friend Lee Stone to a gubernatorial cock gobbling before jumping in his lap for a cowgirl ride while her bra-busting melons bounce more than her poll numbers!

Scene 4: Daydreaming about simpler times, Paylin remembers an afternoon study session with her old political professor Evan Stone. SinDee Jennings (playing a young (18+) Paylin) bares her bald box for a tongue-wagging lecture before he bends her over the desk and taps her tight behind to show her how the system works!

Scene 5: Paylin and Hillary (Nina Hartley) get together for some bipartisan caucusing… only to get busted by an angry Condi (Jada Fire) for starting without her! Joining in the fun, Condi feeds Hillary a vibrator while the senator stuffs Paylin’s ballot box with her fingers before both babes tag-team Condi with her own toy!

[Sean of the Thread]

Lawrence of Arabia listed reminded me to add: Sergeant York.

Excellent movie as well.

[Aylien]

Hubby and I saw Drive this past weekend. The blurb reads "A Hollywood stunt performer who moonlights as a wheelman discovers that a contract has been put on him after a heist gone wrong".

Yes, it absolutely is about that, but it wasn't the movie I was expecting. It is an agonizingly well paced, finely nuanced film. The discussion hubby and I had afterward went beyond "That was pretty good" and "I liked it". We discussed it for hours afterward. Go. See.

[Asha]

The Troll Hunter.
Not just a good movie but such beautiful locations. Very nice.

[Stanley Burrell]

Children of Men.

[Asha]

I watch that like every other week. I love the subtle ads about the end of the world and The Quietus

[Cephalopod]

I'll second Children of Men (for probably like... the 10th time in this thread). On my list of top 50 movies of all time.

Just finished watching Kevin Smith's "Red State". Smith has been churning out some questionable stuff (which I still consume and generally like, even Cop Out)... but this was fantastic. Gritty, brutal, creepy and disturbing on a very low-budget. John Goodman and Michael Parks steal the movie, but all the actors give good, convincing performances.

If you hate WBC, give it a watch. Smith also includes some digs at post-9/11 (and post-Waco, for that matter) government power, so if you're a Patriot-Act supporting fella, you may want to just ignore that.

[Reltov420]

'Walk Hard; The Dewey Cox story'

Watched it yesterday for about the dozenth time, still gets me laughing hard.

'I should have spent more time playing catch with ya, instead of training my body and mind to kill ya in a machete fight'

[Cephalopod]

The wrong kid died!

And my favorite line from this movie, which makes me laugh every time: "I'm sorry, Dewie. I just never realized until just this moment how easy it is to cut someone in half with a machete."

[Latrinsorm]

Not a movie, but following Fallen's lead: the first episode of Person of Interest was really, really good. It's a new series on CBS with Jim Caviezel (squee!) beating people up and Ben from Lost being clever and grandiose. The writing was really clever in spots (and fairly trite in others, but it's a pilot, what are you gonna do), I have high hopes for the series.

[Nilandia]

Real Steel.

I was highly suspicious of the movie when I first saw the trailer, but the reviews were good so I went to see it last night. Obviously it's not going to be high art and it's not pretending to be, but it was a lot of fun to watch.

Watched this last night. I think your assessment is pretty spot on. The one thing that would have been good is if they'd have ended it with a Bollywood style dance number, with robots. The kid and the robot danced earlier... should have finished with a dance. Would have been worth a laugh in any case. Good entertainment all the same.

[Drisco]

Just saw it 2 hours ago. I enjoyed it a lot and I agree about the dance number on the last fight. I was expecting something cool but there was nothing.

Saw Hanna this weekend. It was kinda cool but a LOT of slow parts that should've been replaced with super badass little girl action scenes.

[Stanley Burrell]

#A) Oldboy: It's like these AzN directors all ripped a piece of Lynch's heart and brain out and did their tentacle thing with it for cybernetic implants.

2. Stalker: I cannot stress, how ridiculous it is, comma, to find movies without torrent fuck-o bullshit, ,where you can be like, "Yeah, no, stop telling me you can Netflix it to my doorstep. I NEED MY FIX. NOW."

[Cephalopod]

I debated making a thread about American Horror Story. I'm definitely intrigued and will keep watching. It seems like a pretty common horror trope that's being stretched over a TV show length... that may be a good thing. Seeing Ruth from Six Feet Under made me happy. The editing/camerawork bugs me a bit (the flashes, jitter-cam, quick-zooms, etc... they just don't work in a TV show like this), but I love horror movies enough that I'll stick with it.

Tekken.

For a video game movie, it wasn't bad at all.

[Archigeek]

Fantastic film. I heard a sequel is in the works.

I heard that too. My first thought was, "sequel or prequel?" I guess I haven't read any of his books, so maybe there is a sequel book already. A few of his books have been made into good movies.

[Asha]

I know it's probably the wrong folder for this but i can't wait to see Ridley Scott's - Promethius, a sort of prequel to Alien.

The Trip. With Steve Coogan. Pretty funny.

[Enceladus]

I think there were three sequels to Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?(original name of the story), but they were written by a different author. Never read them, but I think those ones, We Can Remember it for You Wholesale (Total Recall,) and Minority Report all took place in the same universe in the books, so using the books as source material for a sequel might be dicey.

But yeah, I heard they were going to do a sequel too. Basically was a case of Scott saying there wasn't a need for a remake (which was the idea some were wanting to go with) since so many versions and cuts exist already, but he managed to get the go-ahead to do a sequel instead, with the people who wanted to do the remake chipping in or something.

[Nilandia]

Just got back from seeing Hugo, and it was very, very good. So much detail, including a lot that actually happened in real life. Extremely well done.

I also saw the Muppets Saturday. A funny movie and tons of great cameos.

Columbiana. If you like Sucker Punch, The Professional, and La Fem Nakita, you’ll like this one. I am not into super skinny chicks but Zoe is superhot.

Hall Pass. Hilarious, wrong on so many levels... boy vs. girl middle aged angst. Laughed all the way through.

[Ralimar]

This is old news, but 13 Assassins is one of the best movies I've ever seen.

Also, I loved Old Boy, so I watched the other 2 films in the "Vengeance trilogy." Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance wasn't very good. However, Lady Vengeance was enjoyable, but not as good as Old Boy.

Watched I Am Number Four, Captain America, and Green Lantern in one day. Captain America yay for acting, Green Lantern yay for special effects, and really surprised that I Am Number Four actually surprised me. I went in with low expectations and, for what it was, it was not bad.

Netflix should be delivering Colombiana, Moneyball, Ides of March, and Horrible Bosses in a couple of days. Heard Colombiana was pretty kick-ass.

[Fallen]

The Hurt Locker, unsurprisingly. Liked Jarhead better, though.

[Asha]

Yeah two outstanding movies.
I really enjoyed Mr Nobody this evening.

[Gsgeek]

Saw Horrible Bosses, which was better than I thought it was going to be.

Also cracked up a lot at the very end, "You're such a loser dad, you're such a loser dad!"

Saw The Raid: Redemption and it was excellent. Makes me wonder if kali silat will be the next martial arts craze. Harder to find teachers.

[Danaandim]

John Carter was pretty good, with the warrior princess, Dejah Thoris, kicking some butt. Hard to believe that Willem Dafoe was under all that makeup playing the green man, Tars Tharkas.
Saw Dylan Dog on DVD and it was very funny, especially the interplay between Dylan and his newly-zombified sidekick/partner.

Yesterday I heard about a movie called "The Baytown Disco" that is being shopped for distribution. It has Billy Bob Thornton in it, so I figured it was worth a look. After watching the trailer I swear it's like the Boondock Saints meet Deliverance. Looks rather cheap and yet stylish. I dig it.
