rolling movie thread

[AndICried]

At the beginning, it is specifically mentioned that the story is not taken from the gospels, but the novel mentioned above ^_~

pretty decent film...

 

[deadair]

...do i always come into the movie late?

my world is falling apart.

or maybe it's been a few years since i watched it last...

"A man called hero"
total garbage. probably the worst HK film I've seen in years.

 

[mindspell]

«V-The Original Series» and one third of «V-The Final Battle». Aged surprisingly well, I expected a lot worse. So of the FX are ridiculously bad but it wasn't frequent enough bother me. The writing was pretty intelligent.

The Ring Two. Horrendous, but in the same way a really good car wreck is (incidentally the best scene involved a car getting wrecked).

I also watched the original Insomnia, which was excellent, and Barry Lyndon, which was also excellent.

I watched the Wonderfalls DVD yesterday. Such a good TV show, so of course it was destined to fail.

domestic disturbance, which was totally predictable, right down to what second someone would get hit and how/with what. vince vaughan is still a dece villan though.

part of the stepford wives remake which was okay before i fell asleep. a bit over the top goofed up, but might turn out ok.

 

[mindspell]

I watched the Stepford Wives the same weekend as I Robot. Let's just say the SW is a nice entertainment, nothing more, and was miles ahead of I Robot in terms of quality. That wasn't a very good weekend.

yeah the original Insomnia is good - I like Stellan Skarsgaard

 

[avi]

Stellan Skarsgaard was at the Export Sweden show I went to in LA. I had trouble recognizing him in-person.

 

[chupe666]

i saw the first insomnia but it's been a while. very stark, quiet, and music-less; kind of like the original Vanishing, right? unlike the hollywood schmaltz versions that can't leave things quiet.

 

[avi]

yeah, kinda like that. I never made the Vanishing connection, but I agree that it's kinda similar in that it leaves a lot of stuff hanging without resolution. I own the original Insomnia on DVD, but it's not exactly the sort of thing I watch that often.

i heart huckabees. i liked it. even though i do not like jason schwartzman whatsoever.

(ba)Sin City. Fucking amazing. really. I'm pretty sure that there was not a single thing I didn't like about this movie. And it was so damn funny. I'm not sure how it compares to the comics, but the movie was great.

(there was lot's of breasts)

 

[Sandfire]

My Architect had some really touching moments in it, and great shots of Kahn's buildings. Recommended.

 

[avi]

part of my mission tomorrow is to buy swedish/scandinavian dvds

 

[xfer]

i just watched i heart huckabees umm friday, i think. pretty decent. some really well-thought-out scenes (the elevator scene, the dinner scene, etc).

 

[0sm0se]

Sin City = Sex

Go see

 

[inkybmistro]

be cool is meh.

 

[Biddinger]

Sin City was magnificent. I sat in awe for the entire two hours and six minutes.
