Say what it was and then what you thought of it. I will start, saw Blade Trinity and thought it was crap. Easy enough.

Ocean's 12.

I saw Pulp Fiction for about the dozenth time and it was again excellent.

Ocean's 12.


I saw that too. First one was better I thought.

i just watched fight club for the bajillionth time
and right before that a clockwork orange
the two most kicks ass movies of all time

I saw that too. First one was better I thought.

First one as in the remake, or first one as in the one with the Rat Pack?

The Day After Tomorrow. Yay for ice ages! :D

the motorcycle diaries

The Day After Tomorrow. Yay for ice ages! :D

and instantaneous deep freezes that you can out-run and keep out by closing the door!

Finding Never Land. One of the few movies that made me cry in public. But my god, for an older guy Johnny is so hot. :D

First one as in the remake, or first one as in the one with the Rat Pack?


The remake.

The remake.

Yeah, I liked the Ocean's 11 remake better than Ocean's 12. But Ocean's 12 was still pretty good.

In RL, I don't think that would work, because I remember reading somewhere that for air to descend and not heat up, supersonic windspeeds would be required, so you're dead meat no matter what :p

Well, *most* recent was Lemony Snicket... I liked the narration, and the children, and LOVED the scenery/cinematography, but thought Jim Carrey was a detriment.

Other than that, I've seen some really fabulous movies recently...
Sideways, The Incredibles, and Finding Neverland

at home, I finally saw Supersize Me - wow, talk about inspiring!

by the way i'm a girl not a guy. Just to clear things up.

I saw 'Saw'. Best. Movie. Ever. You all suck if you haven't seen it.

Say what it was and then what you thought of it. I will start, saw Blade Trinity and thought it was crap. Easy enough.

The second-last movie I saw was Blade... it had some comedy value, you must admit:

Blade: "It's ok, the vampires don't leave any evidence behind when I kill them - the feds have nothing on me"
Me (to self): "Yeah... no evidence. EXCEPT ASH AND SEMI-COMPLETE SKELETONS! And also: whiskey tango foxtrot. You just BLEW UP A BUILDING! And destroyed like SIX CARS! In the first TEN MINUTES of the movie! Of course the FBI have something on you - you're a damn moron!"

Oooh, ooh, and not too mention the vampires that could occasionally walk around in sunlight just fine (the interregation room, for example), but at other times would mysteriously crumble into dust in it. And the fact that Blade insulted the other people's taste in clothes when he wears a leather jacket with goddamned RED SILK LINING.

And there was that freakin' adorable dog (I want one!). That made the whooooole movie worthwhile.

I guess I just like being able to rant about stupid movies. I do the same about Event Horizon (heee, crappy-movie science is fun) and Ghost Ship (because seriously, wtf).

The Hot Chick

though it was funny, I didn't really like it. I didn't chose to watch it either, but my wife did, oh well. I find I'm picky about movies anyways.

by the way i'm a girl not a guy. Just to clear things up.

lol!

well, Johnny Depp is so gorgeous, I could see how even a guy would find him attractive. ;)

Last movie I saw was Three Kings again, don't know why I like that movie as much as I do.

Last new movie I started to watch was Alexander... but I was dead tired and passed out before there was any battle scenes... so I have no idea if I would have liked it or not, though what I saw of it was ok.

lol!

well, Johnny Depp is so gorgeous, I could see how even a guy would find him attractive. ;)

I sure as hell find him attractive.

I sure as hell find him attractive.

Haha! Sorry I got like hate mail last time i didn't clear that up. You guys are awesome.

Last movie was Series of Unfortunate Events. A HUGE dissapointment. It was really bad.

i saw million dollar baby at the movies
and man on fire on dvd
they were both really powerful and sad

Last movie I saw in a theater was A Series of Unfortunate Events. Pretty good, but could have been better. Maybe if they showed Olaf going insane.

The last movie I saw outside a theater was this afternoon. I popped in Dodgeball and watched it. I have two words to describe Dodgeball: Fucking hilarious. Easily the best movie of 2004. It's a damn shame the Academy doesn't put this up for about 37 Oscars simply because they don't have a sense of humor. It's not even rated R. They're just being jerks.

I just saw House of Flying Daggers Awesome movie Highly recommend it.

Well, the last movie I saw at the cinema was The Phantom of the Opera...terrible...terrible. Most disappointing.The last movie I watched at home was Ocean's 11 for about the hundredth time. Excellent movie, didn't think Ocean's 12 was as good, but still a good film in its own right.

Those dogs were f*cked up in so many ways. And then when the blind girl has got the gun and looking around and points it right at the vampire, some in theatre said "Fire away, you SOB". That was the only time everyone in theatre laughed.

The Aviator.

The Aviator.
How was it?
I've heard it's good, but a bit on the long side.

I finally saw Supersize Me - wow, talk about inspiring!
To what, stop eating fast food as a staple of your diet?



Oh, Assault on Precinct 13 and Coach Carter, both good movies.

How was it?
I've heard it's good, but a bit on the long side.

Yea its a bit long, but its worth it. One of the BEST movie I've ever seen. I really hope it wins best picture.

Scarface, and as always, I loved it ^_^

A russian movie called Brat-2 (Brother 2): On the way home. It's a good, wholesome, violent russian mafiosi movie :p
I love it.

Blade Trinity, this afternoon.
Disappointing

Last movie I saw was Monty Python: Holy Grail :D

Phantom of the Opera

just watched it last night

In the theater: Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events.
On DVD: Gladiator

The last good movie I saw was *Primer*. A complex, tightly acted little indie film that makes the viewer work to unravel the action. Quite a change from the pablum that Hollywood cranks out.

I just saw Meet The Fockers, it's one of the funniest films i've ever seen. And i've seen a lot of funny films. Barbara Streisand is fantastic.

i saw "the professional" this morning on dvd. natalie portman as a 12 year old whos family is killed by bad guys who it taken in by her neighbor, a professional killer

very good movie.

Yeah I saw Secret Window yesterday (Mmm...Johnny)

Tonight I'm hopefully gonna go see Coach Carter.

the butterfly effect.
awesome movie!

Last movie I saw period: The Last Samurai

In threaters: Phantom of the Opera (Which SUCKS if you like the Broadway rendition)

Mean Creek. Was pretty good, in a disturbing sorta way.

Standard Films: Lost In Transition
and right after
GNARcore Videoplay's: Shoot the Ones You Love

and no one will have any clue what the hell them are unless they ride - but oh well.

The Forgotten and Troy.

I dont jump at scary scenes, but when they snatched those people out of thin air in the Forgotten-I jumped outta my pants. :eek:

and I was sad that Hector got killed by Brad Pitt in Troy :(

Big Fish. I loved that movie.

The ending where the son is carrying the dad to the river and they run by all the people in his stories made me tear up.

Hopefully it was the Director's Edition, the version released in the US toned down some of the intergenerational love scenes somewhat, which left the rather strange paradox that it appears that shooting people in the face with powerful handguns, but lusting after unobtainable objects of desire is a thing to be despised.


Last film I saw: Cube Zero. Yes! A prequel to Cube and Hypercube, and much more closely linked to the first film. I'll admit that they are something of an acquired taste, and some people can't stand them: even me, something of a fan of the serious finds Hypercube something of a failure, but interesting none the less. Cube Zero takes us back to the three dimensional cube of the first film, and ups the ante by letting us observe some of those who operate the device from the outside. The claustrophobia and strong visual identity of the first film is thus diluted somewhat, but this is more than made up for when it is revealed just how arbitrary the whole operation turns out to be, and the Kafkaesque turns do a good job of widening out the disturbing elements of Cube. Go see it.

Well the last movie i saw was The Butterfly Effect. It's ok i guess it gets better the secon time. Tonight im going to see The End of Suburibia, and Requim for a Dream.

Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (my favourtie movie, except the other Star Wars)

"Troy" was the last movie I saw on DVD and in theatres "......A Series of Unfortunate Events", HOWEVER, the power went out right when their aunts house is being destroyed by the storm so I have yet to see the end of it, grrrr.

I saw A Very Long Engagement yesterday. It's really good and dramatic and romanticised, as you would expect from Jean-Pierre Jeunet (directed Amélie).

I just finished watching "Birth of a Nation" and "Intolerance". Both were truely ahead of their times and magnificent films. Just the camera shots alone are worth watching these films. DW Grifith is still one of the top 5 directors of all time in my book.

I saw Finding Neverland at the theatre on Friday and i loved it. I thought it was a beautiful movie, really touching and sweet. There was a good mix of humour, joy, and magic, and also some sorrow. It made me cry.

I saw Little Black Book on DVD last night. It was kind of cute and entertaining enough, but not even the best romantic comedy i have seen, let alone the best movie in general.

Last night I watched Takashi Shimizu's film, Ju-on (The Grudge).

Very non-linear.

Phantom of the Opera.
My friends and I dressed up...and then went to a pizza restaurant. A boy asked why we were dressed for halloween :D
I guess fancy dresses and masks (plus one Phantom) gets rather scary.
Go see it or face my Punjab Lasso!

I love ALW...

Hellboy. Yes, I am on my way to semi-comic nerd. I think I caught it off my mate.

*grumbles 'damned X-men and 2000AD comics'*

And Big Fish is white supremacist. Honest ;)

Without a Paddle, one of the greatest movies ever! Seriously if you havent seen it yet, see it, tonight! Its a great movie, and the only one that has a good Matrix ripoff.

I saw Elektra. It was decent. Nothing special. But I don't regret the expenditure of money either.

Big Fish. I loved that movie.

The ending where the son is carrying the dad to the river and they run by all the people in his stories made me tear up.

I hated Big Fish. I went to see it last year sometime with my bf on our first date...I swear, he nearly killed me for picking it, it was so boring!

Last movie I saw was Eurotrip :D Funny funny movie
