I know exactly what you mean. But I think because I grew up in the town, I'm extremely biased. And while the disconnection seemed hollow to you, to me, it was something I could easily relate to. It's an odd part of California that I live in, and barring some of the more outrageous snippets, the film was fairly accurate in representing life in the Central Valley.

But I've had a hard on for larry clark/harmony korine films for years. Seeing Gummo on the big screen of a revival theatre when I was a youngster completely blew my mind and started my love of the genre. If it can even be labeled as a genre. I'm rambling.

I watched Sin City again recently, and I can't stop thinking that Frank Miller made a mistake killing Marv off, he was a brilliant character.

It's probably my favorite movie now, though, cant wait for the sequel.

Planet Terror was brilliant, as well.

Clive Owen ruined sin city.

He's a monotoned emotionless hack. At first I thought it was character driven, but no, he's equally bad in every other movie.

Planet Terror was like a Troma movie with higher production values and less comedy. Rubbish.

Wait he's like that in other films?

Fail.

Indeed. I spat at him while I was living in LA, but I had a cold, and it was all phlegm, so it fell short.

Just saw the Golden Compass, it was a waste of time. Made me sick of western fantasy.

Yeah my friends asked me to go.
I told them that spending that much money on a movie thats supposed to be shit is not my idea of saving for uni.

"Bee Movie"

Awful, awful, awful, awful, awful. Awful.

I saw The Golden Compass today, I actually enjoyed it, despite the fact that I'm going to have to watch the sequels when they come out.

I watched Knocked Up a moment ago, I laughed a lot.

You know, you could just read the books...

I saw No Country For Old Men a couple days ago. If any of you want to actually see a movie by adults for adults (as opposed to generic fantasy like The Golden Compass) then make sure you see this. Best Coen brothers movie I've seen in a while.

I thought of doing that, but I think I'll just watch the movies.

I just watched The Amityville Horror, and when I finished it was 3:15 AM! LOL!

Yeah, this was quite the opus. My favorites are Barton Fink and Miller's Crossing, but No Country for Old Men certainly gave them a run for their money.

Being The literary fag that I am I can't help but criticize Angela's Ashes for missing some of the Key parts of the book, and the bit with the lunar eclipse was fucking stupid, I am sorry but for god's sake.

Being of Irish heritage, I can't help but criticize the blacks for being so lazy.

Wait, what?

I loved the book, but the movie was a turd. Not even a polished turd. Just a big ole' clinker.

I love Barton Fink but I can't say I've ever been a big fan of Miller's Crossing. I always thought that and Raising Arizona were the two Coen brothers movies I could do without.

I liked Raising Arizona!

That being said I think I saw it when I was 7.

It's certainly not a bad movie. I just don't like it as much as their other films.

John Goodman's performance at the climax of Barton Fink still gives me chills to this day.

Raising Arizona was crap.

Goodman is Satan incarnate. I love it.

Watched the requested-for Christmas pressie The Bourne Ultimatum, a film made by children for adults. That's what it says in the blurb anyway. It was very good, it deserves the high-praise it's been getting, even if it's not exactly my sort of film. Too shallow, like.

Walk Hard was the biggest suprise from the film industry all year. I liked it and would even buy the soundtrack. :)

I recently saw I Am Legend and it was pretty good. It was sad at parts, but overall satisfying.

I also saw Hot Rod recently, and I laughed so hard. I thought the Punch dancing scene was uber hilarious.

I saw Hot Fuzz the other day. I found it really amusing, especially when they have that big shoot out at the supermarket with the butchers :lol:

I just saw The Simpsons Movie. It was really funny especially the ending.

What about O Brother Where Art Thou?

i saw The Hogfather today.

Best 4 hours of a film for a long time

Oh, it was nothing short of amazing.

"I don't want fop! I'm a Dapper Dan-Man!"

Best line in the whole movie.

Saw Harry Potter and the order of the phoenix.
Rubbish, I hate movies like that. Curse my parents for dragging me there! It was kinda good in some parts though, like 'boys and girls aren't allowed to be 1 meter of each other' or whatever. Just girls and boys huh? Oh don't give me those looks...:tard: bwhaha. And I saw 'Pathfinder' really gory in some -well most- places, but a good movie all the same.
