The Movie You Just Watched: The Thread

[weekapaugjz]

watched wanted last night. i enjoyed it for what it was. probably gonna watch layer cake later tonight.

[EddieMoscone]

Tropic Thunder. Not sure what the buzz was about. Wasn't funny or clever. Felt like I was watching a movie industry circle jerk.

[weekapaugjz]

Tropic Thunder. Not sure what the buzz was about. Wasn't funny or clever. Felt like I was watching a movie industry circle jerk.

i didn't think it was great, but there are some funny lines in it.

[hedges]

Tropic Thunder was alright, not great. Robert Downey Jr. was the best part of the movie.

[waytovietnam]

I saw WAITRESS movie last night.

[joeyballsack]

The Deer Hunter.

Its on Cinemax right now, and since they mentioned it on the show the other day I have been wanting to rewatch it. Too bad I will probably fall asleep before its over.

[BeerBandit]

Gold Diggers of 1933. I'm up to 298 of 1001.

Again another Busby Berekley extravaganza. Probably the best of the three (42nd St, Footlight Parade). Pre-code, Joan Blondell side-boob. Nice.

[ANC]

Watched Henry Poole Is Here (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1029120/), very slow, I guess I could've done without it.

[BeerBandit]

It's a Gift, WC Fields, 1934. Supposedly one of the funniest movies ever. I thought it was fucking awful. What'd I miss. I can appreciate old timey humor. I loved A Night at the Opera, The General, various other Keaton and Marx Bros. films, but this was atrocious. The dialogue was nothing but unfunny mutterings. I just don't get it.

[John Galt]

The Double Life of Veronique French film, Polish director. Easily the most beautiful film I've ever seen.

[joeyballsack]

Nick And Norahs Infinite Playlist


Piece.Of.Shit.

[weekapaugjz]

suicide kings. awful movie.

[midwestjeff]

Manda Bala, I think that's the title.

A documentary on all the corruption and shit in Brazil.

It's in the watch instantly section on Netflix if anyone cares.

[razorboy]

Hellboy 2. I didn't turn it off which is more than I can say for most comic book movies. It was a beautiful film, but the story was just bleh. Guillermo del Toro can do much better, I just wish he would more often.

[brettmojo]

Zach and Miri... Good movie.

[Trailerparkhero]

Coraline. Not a bad flick if you go with a slightly depressed cutter.

[Recyclerz]

Sunshine. Pretty good although some bits are derivative of 2001, Solaris and Alien. If you like your scifi mixed in with a bit of grown-up philosphy (i.e. NOT Star Wars, etc.) it is worth a watch. Doesn't rank as one of Danny Boyle's best though.

[K.C.]

Watched Ralph Nader: An Unreasonable Man tonight on Netflix.

Very interesting Bio-Doc. About half deals with the historic 60s and 70s consumer activism and half with the Presidential runs. The old footage is from the 70s is great.

They really portray the Presidential candidacy controversy with a very even-hand. There's a lot of interviews with his long-time colleagues who jumped ship on him in 2000, and with the people who stuck it out until the end.

Ultimately, they present a pretty interesting case for both sides of it.

Enjoyable film.

[Friday]

i am in the middle of The Strangers.

i really should learn not to watch these kinds of movies while i am alone in my dark house.
:unsure:

[BlackSpider]

:unsure:

Get out while you can.
I watched that movie to the end, and I thought it was one of the worst movies I've ever seen...
-P.U.

[Friday]

i liked it and i am keeping my kitchen light on tonight. who knows if i will sleep at all!

but i am easy to scare and enjoy creepy for what it is. no movie snob here!

[hedges]

I watched the doc. Heavy Metal Parking Lot and it reminded me of high school. It was hilarious.

[joeyballsack]

Frozen River.

Loved it but I was probably biased because I live in the general area that the movie is located. I have family and friends that go to the casino on the reservation and ice fish on the St. Lawrence. My brothers ex girlfriend lost a truck when it went through the ice. The depressing feel of the landscapes were right on. This was a great movie that relied on a great story instead of a huge budget and that was refreshing to watch.

[stinkbud]

The Grudge 3....

THIS MOVIE SUCKED!!!!

The first american version and all the Japanese versions which were directed by Takashi Shimizu were amazing horror movies, all developing an effective sense of dread. The first US one is one of my favorite all time horror movies.

This movie just angered me.

The Grudge 2 should have served as a warning, but this was just so bad it was stupid. The ghost chick or the little chinese boy arent scary anymore. The deaths weren't frightening. It seemed like the director was trying to combine The Ring's Samara and The Grudge's Kayoko into one awful ghost. It didn't work.

One of the best parts Shimizu's movies was how he told the story in smaller segments that seem to fit together as a whole. All the segments aren't presented in sequential order which adds to the effect. The ghosts aren't always seen, and when they are, its glimpses. In the first US movie, there was one scene when Sara Michelle Gellar was in and elevator and you see the boys face in the small window on every floor. That was creepy. When Kayoko came to kill the woman from under her sheets, that was plain frightening.

This movie was a simple A--->B ----> C linear progression movie that really didn't develop any suspense.

Avoid this strait to video shit and look out for the Japanese originals, Ju-On 1 &2 and Ju-On: The Grudge 1 & 2....they are all awesome horror movies made by a master.

[AKA]

I watched the doc. Heavy Metal Parking Lot and it reminded me of high school. It was hilarious.

Makes me happy whenever I see that someone else has checked this out.

[beachbum]

I watched E.T. with my daughter last night.It was her first time seeing it.

[midwestjeff]

Waiting for Guffman.

I'm sure this is obvious, but it was hysterically brilliant.
Also, I am now officially obsessed with Parker Posey.

Also rewatched Spinal Tap the other day.(it's theme week on my netflix)

Does Ricky Gervais owe Christopher Guest any credit for the mockumentary thing?
Or does he acknowledge Guest as an influence?
Or are the two completely unrelated and I am just drawing bad connections?

[drjoek]

Saw two good movies over the weekend

Into the Wild
directed by Sean Penn
I had read and enjoyed the book so the movie was a bonus Pretty well directed didn't quite capture the book as well as I hoped but very enjoyable

There will be Blood
Excellent Daniel Day Lewis is an amazing actor! My wife found the whole thing very disturbing I was riveted.

[K.C.]

Watched Glengary Glen Ross tonight.

Living proof that later-era Pacino still had the acting chops when he chose.

[waytovietnam]

I saw Iron Man movie last night. It's interesting movie.

[Slumbag]

I watched Hancock. I wish I hadn't.
I don't really like Will Smith, but he was good in it. First 20 mins. were good, the rest was terrible.

[hedges]

I just watched Heat again. That's a long movie. What still amazes me was that that movie only came out a year before that bank takeover in Hollywood in ' 97, where the guys had automatic AKs and body armor. And then they shot it out in the streets.

[hedges]

The End of the Century: The Story of the Ramones
Aside from a few scratches on the disc that made viewing a little difficult, this was a really solid piece of work.

[PapaBear]

The End of the Century: The Story of the Ramones
Aside from a few scratches on the disc that made viewing a little difficult, this was a really solid piece of work.
I've seen that a few times on HBO/Showtime/etc. I loved it.

[hedges]

I've seen that a few times on HBO/Showtime/etc. I loved it.

Dee Dee Ramone wrote an autobiography several years before his death. I'd like to read that. I loved the part of the movie when the Ramones went to England for the first time. At the one gig Johnny Rotten and Joe Strummer were trying to meet the band. Johnny was asking around whether they were going to kick his ass or not. He was serious. After the Ramones left England, bands started to pop-up all over that country. The doc. made it crystal clear how seminal the Ramones are in punk music. And of course it goes back further than that to the New York Dolls, Iggy and the Stooges, MC5, and others.

[MacVittie]

Jungle Fever.

It's amazing how both Debi Mazar and John Turturro can both play Italian and Jew so convincingly.

[epo]

Just finished Michael Clayton.

[barjockey]

now i gotta bust up a chiffarobehttp://ac4.yt-thm-a03.yimg.com/image/383bf7e0061ecf02

To Kill a Mockingbird

[ToiletCrusher]

Debbie does nothing. It was an independent Mormon flick. I guess Mormon guys love it.

[GreatAmericanZero]

i watched some movies lately

I saw "Harold and Kumar 2: Escape from Guatanamo Bay" and i thought it was hilarious. Consistently funny throughout the whole film, countless laughs and no serious stuff. Very few comedies are good like that


Yesterday i watched "Foot Fist Way" and thought it was really funny. McBride plays a milder version of the character he plays in "Eastbound and Down" (Eastbound is funnier) but it still had a lot of great lines and funny moments. For a low budget comedy it def is successful


right now i have on "Sicko" but im probably going to turn it off soon. Its just so repetitive over and over again. Basically its a story of an American who had a shitty deal with health care and then a foreigner who had an amazing time with their healthcare. I just can't get into it because i know its cherry-picked on both sides. Find the rare horrific terrible experience and the absolute perfect experience and compare the two.

[weekapaugjz]

Waiting for Guffman.

I'm sure this is obvious, but it was hysterically brilliant.
Also, I am now officially obsessed with Parker Posey.


i fucking love that movie, one of my all time favorites. and i totally agree with you about parker posey. i wish there was someone as hot as her at the local DQ.


and i watched snatch last night. forgot how much i liked that movie. i haven't seen guy ritchie's latest movie but i heard it was not that great.

[Knowledged_one]

Eastern promises pretty interesting

[barjockey]

i saw a cool indi flick called "Roman":happy:

[barjockey]

Eastern promises pretty interesting

vigo was in sicker shape than deniro in cape fear

[weekapaugjz]

Eastern promises pretty interesting

except for the never ending nude fighting scene. other than that, i really enjoyed it.

[GreatAmericanZero]

i saw a cool indi flick called "Roman":happy:

LOVED that movie. You ever see "May"?

"May" stars the director of "Roman" and was directed by the star of "Roman". Anyway, its very similiar to "Roman" but bigger budget, main character is a girl and it has anna faris as a lesbian. "May" is one of my favorite movies

[Enabler]

Waiting for Guffman.

I'm sure this is obvious, but it was hysterically brilliant.
Also, I am now officially obsessed with Parker Posey.



i fucking love that movie, one of my all time favorites. and i totally agree with you about parker posey. i wish there was someone as hot as her at the local DQ.



Damn, now I need to watch that movie again. Parker Posey is great, "Cokes. Just come in an get a Coke." But Fez has to be the best part of Guffman.

I watched the Pelosi movie right America:Feeling Wronged most recently on HBO. We really are gearing up for Civil War 2.

[Friday]

last night i watched reservation road.... it was meh. ok at points but kind of forced.

today i watched the reader ... which was fantastic.

i am thinking about watching revolutionary road in a few.... i will keep ya posted :)

[barjockey]

I'm watching "Terminator" and I think Porterhouse from Caddyshack is in the opening

[Friday]

Revolutionary Road

i think i may need to see this one again.

[TheGameHHH]

Gran Torino......really loved it. Why did this movie get snubbed at the Oscars?

[Penelope]

Kung Fu Panda

It was better than I expected

[barjockey]

Taken

[barjockey]

Do you prefer the cheeky original or the CGI'd Cruise/Reeves remake?

[hedges]

Why did this movie get snubbed at the Oscars?

Didn't it get released too late?

[GreatAmericanZero]

Didn't it get released too late?

nope..it got released for the last oscars. academy just had no interest

[BeerBandit]

Judge Preist. Will Rogers. Not bad.

[Edwin]

Got "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" on Blu Ray. Holy hell it transferred to HD beautifully. Highest recommendation.

[GreatAmericanZero]

im on a Danny McBride kick watching "eastbound and down" and "footfist way" so i decided to check out "Pineapple Express". I wish he had a bigger role in that

My problem with "Pineapple Express" is, i hate in an action-comedy where it turns into all action. And the comedy wasn't particularly funny. Like, it was pleasant and the movie kept my interest and it had some laughs...but overall it was slightly better than mediocre.

If you wanna see a stoner comedy done right, see "harold and kumar 2"

[BeerBandit]

It Happened One Night. Holy Crap did Clark Gable remind me of Bugs Bunny.

[waytovietnam]

I watched Good Luck Chuck movies last night.

I feel exactly the opposite way of you GAZ. I thought Harold and Kumar 2 was an abomination. I could not wait for it to end. I regretted not turning it off after it ended. Pineapple Express however, I enjoyed a lot more then i expected to.

[GreatAmericanZero]

I watched the Pelosi movie right America:Feeling Wronged most recently on HBO. We really are gearing up for Civil War 2.

i just watched it..it was one of the funniest, yet cringey hard-to-watch things i've ever seen

but if i was a republican i'd be PISSED. Basically, Pelosi went to McCain rallys and just interviewed the dumbest people in the crowd and put them on tv. These people are so stupid and brainwashed and they cry...i get so embarrassed for them. Of course, most McCain supporters were more knowledgeable and mellow but they wouldn't make good tv

It is a good watch if you can put politics aside and just watch assholes cuz thats what the movie is. I wish it was longer!

[Greyer]

First 15 minutes of Back to the Future last night as I fell asleep. Definately my favorite movie EVER. I will probably try and make it further into the film tonight

[led37zep]

Watching Ground Hog Day right now.


Big Fan....Big Fan

[The Ogre]

Finally got around to watching The Host after putting it off for no good reason. I really enjoyed the scene where the creature first appeared and the ensuing chaos. The drumbeat score along with the utter panic of the citizenry was terrific. I liked the rest, but nothing else in the fim lived up to that first 15 minutes.

[Snoogans]

I watched Used Cars last night. Fuckin funny shit.

[barjockey]

Back to the future I, II, & III on right now. Started at 4pm Cumia-time.

[booster11373]

A Day at the Races

[Philip]

Just saw Milk- very good

Darjeeling Limited was on tv, first time seeing it since the theater. I thought it was a good movie back then, now I think It's amazing. Wes Anderson 5 for 5.

[lleeder]

I just saw Planet of The Apes. Didn't see that ending coming. Heston was pissed.

[barjockey]

Sling Blade

[weekapaugjz]

watched wall e last night. enjoyed it much more than i expected.

[spadanko]

Step Brothers.. pretty funny

[BeerBandit]

We watched Across the Universe last night. At least the first 15 minutes of it. Awful. Took it out and put on Jersey Girl. Not bad.

[Thomas Merton]

The Wrestler. Marissa Tomei is spectacular

[scottinnj]

I don't get out to movies theaters much, so the last one I watched was "There will be blood"

The acting was great, the photograpy was great, but the storyline was a little weird, especially the last scene between Daniel and Eli.

[cougarjake13]

watched saw 5 last night, i know how its been out for awhile but i'll spoiler tag it anyway


it was cool how they backtracked and showed how the cop guy was involved from the beginning


but it seemed like they ran out of ideas, half the movie was like old footage and how it all tied in, the previous movies had amanda as the main co jigsaw but now its the cop

when they got to the room where they had to find the keys with shapes to open the locks and crawl in the holes to survive the blast i said to my wife more the one person can fit in there but still didnt see the twist of all of them had to survive til the last room when the guy made the observation of why is there 5 holes in the gimmick and they figure it out


it was still good for what it was.... a saw movie
but i like john as jigsaw and he's obviously dead so i dont see it being as good from here on out if its with the cop

[underdog]

I watched Where In The World Is Osama Bin Laden today. It was a really good movie. I love anything Morgan Spurlock does.

[GreatAmericanZero]

[SP1!]

Saw the wrestler, mickey should have won.

[WampusCrandle]

Saw the wrestler, mickey should have won.

yes he should have, damn it!

i just watched Sex Drive and Nick & Nora's Infinite Playlist

[barjockey]

I'm going to watch Bladerunner

[barjockey]

On TCM "Three faces of Eve" good flick

[GreatAmericanZero]

i just watched "hot rod" with andy sandberg and i actually laughed a lot

[Suspect Chin]

The Pope of Greenwich Village on Ron's recommendation. Pretty good. I hate how old movies sound like shit even if you have a good sound system. I usually turn the subtitles on in this situation, but if the movie is old enough they aren't available.

[made cummsies]

Dog Day Afternoon (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0072890/), I'm struggling to understand how this made it to IMDB's #162 on their top 250 list. Not a bad movie but not deserving of being in the same league as Snatch (#158) or Gandhi (#165).

[hedges]

Annie Hall

I personally couldn't finish DDA. I'm a big Pacino and 70s-80s movie fan but that one stunk.

[Slumbag]

I rewatched King of Comedy today.

It's really great. I was watching DeNiro play Rupert, thinking, "This guy sucks".

But he's actually playing the role so brilliantly, you believe he's an awful boob. I always feel so bad for Jerry Lewis in that movie.

[Philip]

Saw the wrestler, mickey should have won.

I saw Milk just so I make this agrument, but afterward I couldn't say Rourke was robbed, still had a shot but Sean Penn was really good.

[Philip]

Just watched Dr. Strangeglove for the first time in years. Peter Sellars was great, and George C Scott would have "made" the movie if everything else about it wasn't so good.

[Knowledged_one]

Re watched inside man its good but spike lee really hates white people

[GreatAmericanZero]

Dog Day is so much better than the other two movies you mention.

The thing you gotta remember about Dog Day is, its been ripped off so many times that it really diluted the original movie. Any hostage movie where the criminals start bonding with the hostages and so on..is a rip off of Dog Day Afternoon. It sucks when a good film is ruined by how many times its been ripped off

[Kublakhan61]

Finally watched Welcome to the Dollhouse. Todd Solondz is a one-trick pony. I didn't really like the film.

[Don Stugots]

its a shame that you didn't to watch the movie on your own and needed a radio show host to suggest it.

As for Dog Day Afternoon: you are nuts.

The Wrestler: lame and got what it deserved, not much.

[Suspect Chin]

It was in my Netflix Queue, it just got bumped up on his suggestion.

Your comments make no sense whatsoever. A good film/piece of art/bottle of wine/blowjob should be able to stand on its own and nothing that comes at a later date being of lesser quality should take the shine off the original. Again, I never said it was a bad movie just IMO not deserving of being in the top 250 of all films. How you can say that its better than Gandhi is stunning.

my argument makes total sense. the film came out and was original. then countless movies ripped off the premise (Airheads, John Q, that John Travolta/Dusin Hoffman thing, Inside Man to name a few off the top of my head) and then the original film doesn't seem as special and unique

look at "Animal House". That was the first movie to ever use that kind of humor and when people saw it in the 70s it was so outrageous and hilarious and unlike anything they've seen before. Now there is probably 5 hollywood movies a year that are essentially "Animal House" ripoffs. As a result, when young people watch that movie they aren't overly impressed because they've seen it all before.

And, first off if anyone uses the imdb top 250 films as a legitimate list then i don't think they know about film..but even so..."Gandhi" is just a by-the-books biopic. Its well made and well acted, but it never was a film that pushed the boundary of cinema and challenged audiences to a cinematic vision that was never presented to them before

[Mullenax]

Miracle at St Anna-
The miracle was that I watched the whole thing. I didn't feel for any of the characters once they were out of immediate danger.

and I :wub: Dog Day Afternoon.

[ChrisTheCop]

It's definitely one of those insider, show bizzy, type deals, but the cast makes it watchable and interesting. Very funny moments as well.

[barjockey]

Just watched Bad Boys I&II. Simon Pegg was right. Me likey:clap:

[Sinestro]

aw the Movie "PUSH" today.

[barjockey]

aw the Movie "PUSH" today.

any good?

[Sinestro]

It was okay. Could have been better. If you want to watch something similar to it, you're better off watching Heroes the t.v. show., cuz you get more info on people's back story and stuff. Everything seemed a little rushed. But some of them had some cool powers. Nice seeing Ming Na in there and Dakota is growing up but she needs to eat more.

[hammersavage]

If Heroes is recommended as better than a movie, I will never watch that movie.

[zildjian361]

footlose:smoke::drunk:

[Sinestro]

With a series like Heroes, you can build up the back story and history more than an almost 2 hour movie.

I wouldn't mind seeing a sequel to PUSH. Like the characters going to take down the "Division" and free the rest of the "special people" like Dakota's mom from being experimented on.

Bullshit! By your logic how can any frequently used genre be watched without first benchmarking it to the movie that originally presented the topic? And also by your logic it would seem that once the original has been released any future ripoff couldn't possibly be as good.

"don't think they know about film"...wow, well laateeda, aren't you just a regular James Lipton wannabe. There's a ton of popcorn on the IMDB top 250 and many movies I don't think belong there but its a highly democratic means for movie goers to rate films. If you want to interject with more refined list I suspect you'll alienate the rank and file customer.

[TheGameHHH]

Forgetting Sarah Marshall.....thought it was hilarious.

I'm also in love with Mila Kunis, like literally. not one of these silly celebrity crushes we all get. im totally in love with that chick.

[Dave's Cackle]

I just watched Righteous Kill. It's a decent enough popcorn flick and I was entertained. I'm a bit tired of seeing Carla Guigino playing the same, tired empowered gruff broad in movies lately.

your first paragraph shows a completely misunderstanding about what i was saying. But if you feel comfortable responding to whatever idea you imagine, thats cool.

your second paragraph is you defending yourself as a "movie regular joe" yet you are the only person i have ever heard of, in this thread or in life, that didn't like "Dog Day Afternoon". Start a "Dog Day Afternoon sucks" thread and see how many people are with you

[BeerBandit]

Angels with Dirty Faces. Meh! I enjoyed The Public Enemy better.

[monkfish]

"Let the Right One In" - A Swedish vampire movie (subtitled.) Normally I don't care for monster/vampire stuff, but this one was really good. Really dreary (like Snow Angels and Frozen River.)

[burrben]

rewatched magnolia.

jason robards' long speech about regret might be my favorite thing ever in a movie. well, made not my favorite, but its amazing.

tonight im gonna see the wrestler

[TripleSkeet]

21

Not bad but it was based on a book that a really compelling story.....that they basically ignored. They "Hollywooded" up so much it went from a non-fiction story to a fictional one in a total of an hour. Just dumb.

And I saw Friday the 13th 2009. As a huge Jason fan, I just wasnt impressed at all.

[ANC]

Watched 3 over the weekend

Doubt - Not bad, I wouldn't watch it again
Taken - Good action, kind of predictable
Last American Virgin - watched it for nostalgic value

[made cummsies]

your first paragraph shows a completely misunderstanding about what i was saying. But if you feel comfortable responding to whatever idea you imagine, thats cool.
OK, so you say I don't get your point. What is it then? Feel free to enlighten me with your brilliant cinematic mind.

As for the IMDB, or any list for that matter, top 250 its subjective. But at least with the IMDB one its voted on by a large group of the public so should be representative of the general sentiment of a particular movie. You've acknowledged that Gandhi is "well made and well acted", doesn't that qualify for some respect? Does a movie need to push the boundaries to make it to a top xxx list? Film a group of 6 people doing nothing but shitting into top hats....it would push boundaries but would likely be a piece of garbage film.

you are the only person i have ever heard of, in this thread or in life, that didn't like "Dog Day Afternoon".

guess you're a selective reader...
I personally couldn't finish DDA. I'm a big Pacino and 70s-80s movie fan but that one stunk.

[Melrapuo]

Watched Hot Rod today. Had a few pretty funny moments. And a few really weird moments. Good movie to watch I guess if you're bored and wanna kinda laugh, but not too much cuz you're sick.

watched the wrestler last night. FANTASTIC!!!

sorry buddy no harm meant. Its still an effin' brilliant show.

I turned off "Pineapple Express" to watch it. I needed to cleanse myself after that "P.O.S."

[Kublakhan61]

Film a group of 6 people doing nothing but shitting into top hats....

Jodorowsky may have done that already ... or was it Miike?

I'm better then your average rank and file moviegoer.

The 400 Blows - Truffaut's first feature film

Huzzah!! - I just watched Jules and Jim.

[made cummsies]

Jodorowsky may have done that already ... or was it Miike?

so I guess my redux version wouldn't be as good......now what am I going to do with all those hats?

watched The Odessa File last night, good movie!

Chasing Ghosts. Got home and it was just finished recording on the DVR. Loving it.

More Truffaut, I'm game.

[drjoek]

Just a suggestion for this thread. To make it a little more useful would be to list the movie and a little something to like or dislike a little blurb. I've used this thread for movie watching ideas and a "I watched XXX I liked it" doesn't help much. Not trying to stir shit just a suggestion for everyone cuz this is one of my go to threads.

watched Sicko. Michael Moores take on the health care situation in the US
Moore loves to turn every issue into himself. And considering the size of the guy he shouldn't be shitting on the system because he will be a patient himself soon enough

[monkfish]

Just finished "Clerks II" - I don't know why I waited so long to rent it. Kevin Smith is a genius.

[BeerBandit]

Captain Blood. Errol Flynn's breakout. A great swashbuckler film.

[burrben]

More Truffaut, I'm game.

then find a copy of "shoot the piano player"

watched Sicko. Michael Moores take on the health care situation in the US
Moore loves to turn every issue into himself. And considering the size of the guy he shouldn't be shitting on the system because he will be a patient himself soon enough

when i watch a Michael Moore movie, i'm not going into it either liking or hating him. Plus, anyone whoseever read my posts during the election knows that i lean way more left. But i couldn't even sit through "Sicko" because i thought it was such a piece of shit. It was bullshit to me because you know Moore spent a long time researching and finding these patients to cherry pick and show in his movie

so basically, the movie, which i thought was really badly done, is "nightmare story dealing with Americans in a hospital, amazing experience of a foreigner and their socialized health care". I don't even have an opinion on socialized healthcare, but i've known Americans that were sick and had no problem with their healthcare giving them the treatment they need. On the other hand, I am positive there are many people in these foreign country that have had nightmare experiences with whatever situation they have. Its just life and everyone understands it

so basically, i didn't understand the point of "Sicko". I thought it was too obvious to be manipulative and too boring and badly done to be a good movie

[Friday]

last night we finally watched "Snatch"... and loved it. the direction was so refreshing and interesting. admittedly the story got a bit confusing, but the payoff was worth the muddle.
good times. and i think i want that soundtrack now.

tonight.... "Life Is Beautiful". I can't believe it took me this long to see this film. I honestly have not laughed that often or that genuinely because of a film in a VERY VERY long time. and when i cried... it was not for the reasons i expected to. BRAVISSIMO!

[johnniehardrock]

Just watched Airplane
A pure classic nothing else to say

[JDE]

I watched the film The Cuckoo tonight, a very different but enjoyable movie, I would totally recommend it.

It's about the end of World War two, with a Finnish soldier who does not want to fight, put in Germans soldier outfit, chained to a rock left to be shot by the Russians. A Russian solder accused of treason being driven away to die and a local Lapp woman, and what happens when they somehow all meet.

Goddamn it, I love that movie. There's nothing else to be said about it. Fistful of Dollars sucks so much cock in comparison.

Bride wars

[MC Pee Pants]

Changeling. I had no faith in this movie but it was pretty good. Angelina Jolie is kind of hard to believe in it though considering the last movie i saw her in she was curving bullets around shit and walking naked out of a hot tub.

2 of my favorites :thumbup:

[Kublakhan61]

Watched Milk last night. I enjoyed it a great deal but wondered a few times during the film if Gus Van Sant was skewing the character of Harvey Milk toward his ideal version of Milk, rather then remaining true to the man. However, I'm no authority on Harvey Milk, as everything I knew about him before this, was taught to me by The Dead Kennedys.
Drags in the third reel but wraps up nicely.

[Mullenax]

The Watchmen
I liked it very much without having read the book.

[hedges]

Watched Michael Clayton last night. It's about a big corporation and the lawyers that work for it. Michael Clayton, George Clooney, plays a "fixer" in the move. Dirty tricks abound. Good movie.

[ChrisTheCop]

I didnt expect to like it all these years, but I did.

I looked it as a comedy until Stiller says to Hackman, "Dad, I've had a really bad year"
and it just hit me how tragic it was. I barely kept from crying the rest of the movie.



I miss my Dad.

[GreatAmericanZero]

Watched Michael Clayton last night. It's about a big corporation and the lawyers that work for it. Michael Clayton, George Clooney, plays a "fixer" in the move. Dirty tricks abound. Good movie.

looking back, that movie is quite forgettable though. The only things i remember is from Tom Wilkinson's character

[BeerBandit]

Sons of the Desert. Laurel and Hardy. Quite funny. I recommend it.

[barjockey]

In Bruges. It was oddly funny.

[hedges]

American Psycho 2. Pretty godawful. Even William Shatner couldn't save it.

[burrben]

Sons of the Desert. Laurel and Hardy. Quite funny. I recommend it.

you should see Simon of the Desert, a bunuel short made in mexico. completely unrelated but terrific.

[hedges]

The only things i remember is from Tom Wilkinson's character
Tom Wilkinson did a hell of a job. I thought that was smart of the writers to interject that whole conflict with Wilkinson's character. That conflict made the movie a lot more interesting.

[Slumbag]

American Psycho 2. Pretty godawful. Even William Shatner couldn't save it.

My friend DVR'd this and was so excited, so I had him put it on while I was over (I tried to watch it a while back).

I just watched "Forgetting Sarah Marshall"..i think it was a bit overrated. It was pleasant and had some chuckles but it really didn't have any big laughs to make it a memorable comedy to me

although when the guy was trying to get hard and Kristen Bell goes "you want me to use my mouth?" i thought that was really hot

[hedges]

I just watched Visionquest with Matthew Modine and Linda Fiorentino. An inspirational coming-of-age movie about a wrestler who has a goal of beating a state champ. Lots of good 80s music.

If it's Bunuel I'm sure the whole thing is unrelated even to itself.

[GreatAmericanZero]

I had no idea it was even rated.

that guy, Richard Roeper who took over for Siskel and Ebert before it all ended said the movie was "one of the 50 best comedies of all time". i didn't have my hopes up that it would be that good, but i don't think it was one of the 5 bes comedies of the year

[biozombie]

The Watchmen - Might be the best comic book movie ever, much in the same way that Wendy's might make the best fast food chain hamburgers ever. What I mean to say is that it wasn't very good as a film, but it was the best by comparison to the other movies based on comic books that I've seen. It's better than either version of Superman II, which was previously the best comic book movie ever. Superman II may have had better acting and dialog but it didn't have any uncut blue cocks in it.

[Chuck Norris]

The Devil and Daniel Johnston. I was a fan of his music before, but wow, that guy is as crazy as a shit house rat, which makes me love him even more :clap:

[GreatAmericanZero]

Just watched "Milk". it was well-made and Penn did a good job (but i didnt think james franco or josh brolin did anything special to get awards). it was a compelling story and they did restrain a lot of "the gay" to make it accessible

i was just dissapointed cuz i was reading about the real Milk after the movie, and he grew up in Long Island and went to college at the University of Albany. Shoot some scenes that take place there! Long Island and SUNY Albany steps up!

[BeerBandit]

The Thin Man, the first Nick and Nora Charles installment. Pretty clever and funny dialogue. Pre-Code so it's has that raciness that hadn't been driven out of films yet.

I checked out Last House on the Left '09 yesterday. Very well done all in all. It helped erase the sour taste I had towards the genre left by the dreadful new Jason movie. I was in a theater filled with kids who I anticipated were going to ruin the viewing for me but everyone got absorbed by the story. There was no texting or annoying chit-chat. We cared about the victimized girl and were genuinely unnerved by the brutality she endured. When the parents exacted revenge we were in full support of the vigilante justice. The content is extreme and disturbing but never exploitative or mindless.

A liberal friend of mine recommended it and said the exact same thing. But the conclusion I came to after I saw it is that there just wasn't enough interest in the car. Why would GM kill a project if they thought it could be even remotely profitable?

Why would they take away cars that people wanted to own?

They destroyed cars that people were willing to pay for. Obviously something much bigger was going on.

Also, GM closed down the dealerships that were the busiest first. And there was a waiting list for a car that GM barely promoted (and when they did, it was extremely abstract and weird). When the Prius came out, it sold like crazy. Yet, we're supposed to believe there was no market for this car?

Not as profitable as oil companies can make it for them.

You're thinking on way too small of a scale. GM needs to sell millions of a model to make it worth it to retool their assembly lines. The few people in the documentary that cried over the car or even the hundreds or thousands that were on the waiting list were not enough to constitute a full blown roll out. Had projections been bigger for this car I bet GM would have moved forward with it.

The Prius was released at a far different period in time when the country was more ready for a hybrid car. I'm all for an electric car too but I don't buy into the conspiracy theories presented by this documentary.

I can buy everything you're saying, but why did they just destroy the cars? People were willing to pay full price and then some for the cars, and they just destroyed them. They even lied about it. The GM PR guy was saying how no car would be destroyed and they'd be recycled and all this shit. It was crazy.

And they showed that clip from some local TV show of an auto yard where they were destroying BRAND NEW electric cars. The guy running the yard didn't even know why he was doing it, just that he was ordered to do it because they were "test cars".

GM even disabled the engine of a car that they gave to a museum!

It's also the info on that great battery that was created that bugged me. I had read about it before the movie, but the fact that Chevron would go out and buy this company just makes my skin crawl. Obviously they were very, very worried.

[Suspect Chin]

Maybe I'm getting a little conspiracy theorist here myself but I think they knew that some faction would cling to this car that they had no intention of producing so they tried their best to bury it.

Have to remember that this happened before the internet really blew up so they probably thought it likely that they could get away with burying it, but now that the internet has taken over, the truth comes out.

This is the story of Arthur "Killer" Kane the bass player for the New York Dolls. By 1989 he became a member of the Church of LDS. He worked in their library for years. In 2004 there is a chance to get the Dolls to reunite at a show for Morissey. Kane gets his bass out of hock and goes to New York for rehearsals. Johanssen and Sylvain are there. They then go to London for the show. A really good piece of work, this doc. was.

Watchmen (2009)

[Kublakhan61]

Hudson Hawk - easily my favorite Bruce Willis movie. I don't mean that ironically or sarcastically.
Bruce is Hudson Hawk, the recently released from prison cat burglar, who is hired to steal various pieces of DaVinci's work for either the mob, his parole officer, or the Mayflowers (James Coburn and Sandra Bernhard). It's over the top with plot twists and oddball characters - but it was favorite movie as a kid and was a blast to watch again. It's a 'comedy'.
