Right? It was just such a great film. I can't remember the last time I left the theater feeling so damn satisfied with a film.

And yeah, despite little actual screentime, Hulk totally stole the show. Not to say the other characters weren't fantasticly written as well, though. Thor's bit about his brother being adopted as great.

It was good shit, to be sure.

The only downside was paying $5 for that medium drink.

I really do not like Robot Chicken. There are a couple of good gags here and there, but I always find myself changing the channel when it comes on. I don't think Seth Green is a good writer or actor.

I really can't comment on the humor because I never had the patience to sit through it, I can mostly manage a minute of it before I get really turned off by the animations and my mind will wander if other people are watching it.

I tried to sit through the Star Wars one and to be quite frank, I've never been as bored or as unamused in my life watching a "comedy." And I'm usually a really big fan of immature humor.

Seth Green is just not funny. He's just not.
Not unlike my issue with Ricky Gervais, I can't tell if the jokes he's saying are funny because I hate him so much.

Why does he have to voice almost every character on the show? He has absolutely no range at all. He has pretty much three voices; default, old man, and nerd, and he uses these same three voices over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.

I'm also confident that the few bits on the show that actually made me chuckle were not written by Seth Green.

Mr. Bungle 05-07-2012 11:23 AM

Yeah, Seth Green really is an unfunny douchebag. But I still enjoy a little bit of Robot Chicken every now and then.

Watched a "certain" club last night, rules 1 &2 apply.

You know the one.

Dynamithix 05-07-2012 12:06 PM

Fight Club is great, just when I watched it the second time I realized it had a great soundtrack too.

OddjobAbe 05-07-2012 01:23 PM

A number of Steve Irwin documentaries. 10/10. The man leapt on top of a totally unrestrained 17ft long crocodile.

OANST 05-07-2012 01:26 PM

How did that sort of behavior work out for him?

Mr. Bungle 05-07-2012 01:27 PM

Fight Club is my favourite movie ever and I get giddy when people post about it here. Or anywhere, really. Good going, guys.

OANST 05-07-2012 01:30 PM

It's an okay movie.

MeechMunchie 05-07-2012 01:40 PM

Man, what a dick.

A stingray eventually got him.

Oh, come on. It's gotta be at least "good" in your eyes.

OANST 05-07-2012 02:30 PM

It's good, I guess. I'm just not crazy about the visual style, and I think it came out more silly than genuinely funny.

Sekto Springs 05-07-2012 03:36 PM

Fight Club is one of those movies I thought was pretty good, but don't really want to watch again.

Wings of Fire 05-07-2012 03:42 PM

Really? I think it's better on rewatch.

Sekto Springs 05-07-2012 03:53 PM

Don't get me wrong, I've seen it multiple times, but I didn't go out of my way to do so.

OANST 05-07-2012 03:55 PM

I loved it when I first saw it in the theatre. I loved it less after each viewing. Similar to Fear and Loathing.

Mr. Bungle 05-07-2012 07:13 PM

I've seen Fight lub many times but still love it. I dunno, it just has that staying power for me. Fear and Loathing I can imagine would get old after a while.

Sekto Springs 05-07-2012 07:27 PM

I watch Fear and Loathing every couple of years, and I notice something new about it every time. If it was made by a less competent director, I'm sure it wouldn't have this effect.

Is that only because you know the twist ending and can see how it fits together? Because I knew that before I saw it the first time. I suppose I would watch it again if someone put it on, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

Yes.

I generally appreciate most movies like that on second watch. Twelve Monkeys, Unbreakable etc.

Twelve Monkeys

Yes. Excellent film.

Sekto Springs 05-07-2012 11:52 PM

12 Monkeys is an excellent film.

Ridg3 05-08-2012 12:04 AM

I had to watch Twelve Monkeys the second time. The second time was to understand the film. But yes, that is a fantastic film.

V For Vendetta was like that for me. There's a hell of a lot of stuff that's hidden in subtly in that movie.

Also, perhaps strangely, The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. The first time I watched it, I was so caught up on noticing the similarities and differences to the book (it was one of my favourites as a kid) that I couldn't relax and just enjoy the film. But the second time (and onwards), I did.
