I haven't seen the third Ice Age, but the subtitle is 'Dawn Of The Dinosaurs'? How the FUCK do mammoths AND man, come before Tyrannosaurus Alan and his chums?

Or maybe there's some stupid thing that covers the plot hole with a retarded twist. If anyone has seen it, please spoil the film for me now before I throw a chair at my grandmother.

Ah ha, someone has a Richard Hammond crush!

I saw two films last night. Both of them were great. First, we went to the theatre and saw Moon. It would be very difficult for me to explain the movie since there is a plot twist about half an hour in that dominates the tone of the rest of the film. Wouldn't want to ruin it. Also, it was written and directed by David Bowie's son.

The second movie I saw was Let The Right One In. I was fucking blown away by this one. It's a Swedish vampire/coming of age film that is so goddamned pitch perfect from beginning to end that I would have to say it's the best film to ever come out of either of those categories. Seriously. Fucking watch Let The Right One In.

I can guarantee that Richard Hammond is NOT my desktop wallpaper. Just, felt like confirming that.

That movie was ahead of the curb in terms of the ending.

Transformers 2. That movie was pure shit. I went in expecting just an action romp, what I got was a pile of shit. The story line is too fucking retarded to go "Oh its just an action movie". Its like every night Michael Bay took every drug imaginable and that is how the plot for T2 was made. There were too many characters and side storylines that didn't need to be there and felt stupid. Worst of all the action wasn't even that good. There are only two good fight scenes, one its hard to tell what the fuck is going on, the other is at the end when you dont even care anymore and wonder if you should just walk out right now or not. I would rather watch Meet The Spartans 100 times over than see this pile of Michael Bay's cum shit again.

Because it was 2 and a half hours of robots kicking the shit out of each other

Why the fuck did you watch disaster movie?

I've watched Disaster Movie in the theater... :(

OddjobAbe 07-13-2009 10:02 AM

Today, I saw Borat for the first time. Not as bad as I thought it'd be. I got quite a few laughs out of it. I've seen better, though.

OANST 07-13-2009 10:13 AM

You've seen better what? Mockumentaries?

The plot confused you? It was pretty straightforward and they explained it like four times.

Here, let me explain it.
Spoilers, bitches.
Soundwave (the satellite, also my favorite transformer) finds out that the piece of the Energon cube the military has is not guarded against his cat that can vomit knives. He ejaculates said cat to retrieve it. The cat, being a lazy bastard like all cats, vomits some knives to do the job, they're successful. Meanwhile, Soundwave dicks around in space and finds out Megatron is at the bottom of the ocean being molested by octopi. Realizing that he's a Decepticon and therein a big hypocrite, Soundwave decides to save Megatron by releasing a message to some Construction robots so colourful they should be in a mechanized ensemble of The Village people through the satellite he's tentacle raping

Said Robots hook up with Soundwave's cat and take the energon shard from him because real men abuse animals. After falling into the ocean like reatrds and sinking deeper into the ocean like retards and removing the Octopi like retards they finally manage to bring Megatron back form the dead. Hail Satan!.

Megatron fucks off from Earth because he wants to get as far away from the Octopi as possible. Starscream makes an appearance and promptly gets the shit kicked out of him for trying to save some unborn children. An old bearded robot that looks like it should be in the final sequence of The Mtrix Revolutions appears to tell Megatron that he needs to fuck shit up and eat a young human child's brain so he can find out where the Machine that will blow up our sun is.

OANST 07-13-2009 01:37 PM

When does the giant robot with exposed testicles come into it? That's the part that I want to hear about.

Mac Sirloin 07-13-2009 02:00 PM

Devastator (The huge as fuck robot in the Trailers who gobbles the sand up) is composed of all the constructicons. One of them is a Crane. There are two wrecking balls in his crotch area. They showed them like 4 times before there was a joke.

The main storyline didn't confuse me, it was just so fucking stupid I think the three year olds in the theater were too smart for it. The included too many side stories and extra characters not needed and at the end did not explain what happned to about half of them.

Mac Sirloin 07-13-2009 03:43 PM

What, you couldn't come to a conclusion by yourself?

Daxter King 07-13-2009 09:47 PM

The budget for this movie was what $200 million? They have more than enough money to at least finish half of what they started.

Strike Witch 07-14-2009 01:16 AM

Started what?

Explain to me what unfinished side stories there are.

Mac Sirloin 07-15-2009 10:26 PM

The only one that I can think of is the President's Subordinate.

Daxter King 07-15-2009 11:40 PM

The whole drama between Megan Fox and Ben was stupid. Really it was more of the unneeded characters for me. The little robot, roommate, alien chick, giant decepticon, and the new autobots.

Jordan 07-15-2009 11:42 PM

Saw Harry Potter yesterday. I was disappointed.

The roommate is the only one that I can agree on here, also Megan Fox. I can't stand her.

Wheelie (the little robot) was there as Deus Ex Machina for Jetfire-if he hadn't helped to reactivate him, Wheelie wouldn't know he could be an autobot. Also comic relief.

Nate 07-16-2009 06:32 AM

Just watched Torchwood: Children of Earth.


It was pretty much four and a half hours of brilliant build-up, followed by the typical RTD copout deus ex machina climax. Deeply unsatisfying.

OddjobAbe 07-16-2009 06:37 AM

I can remember when I watched a new Doctor Who because I heard that the Daleks were meeting the Cybermen. One minute, there were millions of Daleks. The next minute, they are all sucked away. Terribly shit. I hate Russel T. Davies for his anti-climaxes and shit endings.

Nate 07-16-2009 06:44 AM

That was better than Twinkle Jesus the following year.

Saw HP 6. The only part I genuinely liked was the ending. Even though it didn't follow the book exactly (which I'm thankful for for various reasons), it still kicked ass. The rest if the movie was just a half-assed attempt at sticking to the book by including more of the tedious love drama and not the horcruxes and such. Also, I was expecting zombies; not Gollums! Malfoy and Tom Riddle were fantastic. Both Tom Riddles reminded me of the immortal, ageless child from Cowboy Bebop. I'm also sincerely pissed that they left out Dumbledore's burial. So yeah, I hope David Yates isn't making the next one.

The main character's name is Sam. There is no character named Ben.

Really? My mind tried to repress most of that shitty movie.

So basically there were no sublot issues, you just pulled it out of your arse.

No offense, dude, but I find it kind of hard to take any criticism you have seriously when you can't remember the main characters name :/

Daxter King 07-16-2009 03:17 PM

I understand, but I really did hate that movie. I can see how other people would like it though.

Yeah. But it felt like they deliberately tried to find the most unsettling way to end it, even if it made no freaking sense.

What on earth did killing off Ianto acheive, other than driving Jack away in the end?
Killing Jack's grandson was frankly just emotional manipulation.
Why was Jack's grandson the only one of the children to suffer from bleeding death?
If the 456 ambassador was able to escape (though probably injured), why did they not just destroy humanity anyway? I mean, there was nothing to suggest that they'd done any harm to anyone but the ambassador.


Also, were the 456 related to the Raxacoricofallapatorians?

shaman 07-17-2009 03:09 AM

Im pretty sure they wern't related, the raxicoricofalibatorians were made of calcium and so could be defeated by vinigar, they also had a tradition where they hunted as though it were a ritual. The 456 were probably not related to them, or the humans could just use acidic weapons against them also the 456 breathe that poisonous stuff made from cianide and hydrogen and whatever.

where as the Raxco (im not saying that long word again) can brethe oxygen.

And yes, killing off Ianto really spoilt it for me, and jack's running away left a very open ending.

Nate 07-17-2009 03:45 AM

All you say is true. The connection I made was that they were both green and spiky and (at least the individuals we've seen) prone to dodgy dealings.

Let's not forget that the Abzorbaloff was from Clom, the sister planet to Raxacoricofallapatorius and shared similar traits.
