Just saw the 2006 remake of Hills have eyes and I thought it was actually ok.

I expected it to be completely shit, but I thought it was quite enjoyable. There were some really disturbing scenes though.

Watched Sherlock's Murder by Decree last night. Fun and entertaining, and Watson made me laugh a few times. The only problem I found was that the murder was not actually someone Holmes met that I saw on-screen, so it felt a bit cheap.

I don't know if this belongs here, but I recently started watching South Park again. Fuck, I forgot how great that show was.

If you say so.

It's worth a watch if you're into... weird movies. It was really bizarre, I'll say that.

What did you think of the birth scene? I've not seen the movie since I was a kid, but that was the part that stuck with me.

Battle LA

I enjoyed it for what it was, a dumb action movie. I saw things blow up and blow up good, so I was satisfied.

House, the weirdy-weird Toho horror weird movie weird.

It was weird.

I thought it was funny. I don't get it why the movie got a 18+ rating here in Finland. Also the midget-clown scenes made no sense.

I used to love House when I was younger. Haven't seen it in years.

I Am Legend. I love post apocalyptic movies and this one was no exception.

Strike Witch 03-22-2011 02:05 AM

Alien 3.

It's just so bad all around.

I saw Battle: LA. Fun, and Aaron Eckhart was impressive. It wasn't groundbreaking storytelling, but it was better than Skyline.

They still couldn't get through a whole film without that corny speech about duty and country, which I can only assume tests well with American audiences over and over again.

I don't know why everyone says that, I didn't find the movie more disturbing than lets say silent hill, which freaked me out more. and I think it's the best video game adaption so far or can you name any other good adaption?

Silent Hill? I thought it was okay, but not that disturbing.

Also, I thought the mutant raping scene was pretty intense and disturbing.

What was wrong with the ending?

Also, recently saw The Triplets of Belleville/Belleville Rendez-vous. Great little animated movie about a cyclist being abducted by the French Mafia.

Dynamithix 03-22-2011 01:21 PM

The Social Network

Thought it was fantastic and Jesse Eisenberg can act really well in my opinion. I thought it would be boring or just uninteresting, but it was really enjoyable afterall.

Wings of Fire 03-22-2011 06:42 PM

Finally got round to seeing Iron Man.

It was alright.

Nate 03-26-2011 05:17 PM

I finally saw Fight Club. I'd been putting it off for a while because I already knew the twist and thought it wouldn't be able to live up to the hype. I was wrong. It was fantastic.

kapteeni13 03-28-2011 05:20 AM

Rush Hour :spin:

For somereason finnish tv channels show's now lot's of Jackie Chan movies and that's good! :rolleyes: :bow:

Deja Vu.

It was actually pretty clever, I loved the premise and how they set up the loops.

OMG no, Deja Vu was a catastrophe of a film. it was boring, it all played in a tiny space somewhere in the US. I don't know why, but Tony Scott always concentrates his films in such depressing american cities and I am not interested at all.

Mac Sirloin 03-29-2011 07:07 AM

I watched some damn film called St. Trinnians last week. It was some damn teen comedy about some damn school in britain that has no damn rules. It was annoying, and then Colin Firth kicks a dog to death.

Best movie ever.

MeechMunchie 03-29-2011 08:26 AM

Yeah, that film is a blight on our country. You would not believe how popular it is with tween girls over here.

Wings of Fire 03-29-2011 04:35 PM

So this is what they call internet debate.

Bullet Magnet 03-29-2011 05:54 PM

I've seen Internet debates and this is no Internet debate.

Wings of Fire 03-29-2011 06:04 PM

Nursery debate?

I just got back from the embarrassment of film that was Sucker Punch. I'm going to spoil the shit out of this stupid fucking movie here, so be warned if you plan on seeing it (please don't)

Okay. Sucker Punch was a misadvertised, disorganized, mysoginized collection of three specific action scenes that King poopdick Von Buttswiller Zach Snyder came up with that he couldn't fit into anything else because of how unoriginal and pointless they were. Despite being edited to have a unique visual style, Sucker Punch is an irreducibly boring looking movie. Made worse by the fact that you spend exactly 100% of every scene staring at the empty-headed, pouting face of the main character 'Baby Doll'. Baby Doll is coated in pale makeup and blush and makes it her job to wander around pouting all fucking day. Her mom dies, she and her lil' sis are unhappy, her stepdad kills her little sister in an attempt at gaining their inheritance and through some completely fucking bullshit interpretation of how the law works, Baby Doll is then arrested for the murder of her little sister. Somehow.

She is taken to the unholy graveyard of Vermont and deposited at a Mental Asylum that never gets an establishing shot. I honestly spent the first half of the movie assuming it was just an entry hall and one enormous walkway through the whole building. It might as well have been. We're basically told that her shitstain stepdad is paying to have Baby Doll illegally lobotomized. This happens. That's the end of the movie. There's a scene with her in the chair, about to have the needle hammered through her eyeball about 20 minutes in. The hammer pulls back, then it cuts to some new incomprehensible world where the evil pedophile orderly is actually a club owner and all of the Mental Patients are now scantily clad women. There is no reasonable explanation given. It's fucking batshit bananas retarded. I HATED this movie. I loathed every single moment of watching it. It was not entertaining. The action was bland as fuck because a cast of uber-hot girls rarely know a lick of kung fu, so the action was always slow motion shots of them jumping (with just...too many panty shots. It was distasteful, fuckin' seriously.) or shooting towards the camera, which would swing around to the Robosamurai/Nazis/Orks/'Mechanized gunmen' because almost everything they shot was CG.

Oh, and for an action movie trying to be badass, it failed miserably. People get stabbed but don't bleed, the various generic baddies (Steam powered nazi robozombies who act dumb as fuck, a platoon of CG orks and some shitty looking i, Robotesque collective of mannequin horrors) never explode into gory chunks or emit blood when shot, they just died stupid deaths. And don't any of you piece of shit loser nerds whine about how super-duper cool the Steam Nazis are. They weren't. It was disrefuckingspectful just to recategorize the Wehrmacht as some shitty-ass platoon of retards who a team of annoying cheerleaders could beat up. It was an astonishingly poorly organized movie.

Way too much slow motion, too. Zach Snyder is a hack director who's on the same road as M. Night Shyamalan. Whoever let him write his own movie should be put down. It was a catastrophe. A mess. Without a doubt one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Fuck Sucker Punch and thank god it's tanking at the box office.
