Then that "happy feet" is a movie I want to see.


And I also watched Ant Bully over the weekend. It was a good movie. It was pretty easy to guess what would happen next, and there weren't many surprizes, but it was still a good movie also with a good message. "Ants can climb up walls and we can't."

Trust me, Short dancing Mexican penguins = Epic win.

mitsur 03-11-2007 06:42 PM

Just watched the Pretige.

Awesome.

Just wondering, but has anyone seen 300 yet? I'm to lazy to be bothered to go back a few pages to check.

Paramite of War 03-11-2007 06:58 PM

I saw Bridge to Terabethia about a month back the movie is now my favorite.
It is the best and saddest movie I have ever seen.

SeaRex 03-11-2007 08:20 PM

Pan's Labyrinth.

Watch it. Now. Beautiful, poignant movie.

I watched Saw 3 a few days ago. It was pretty good, in my opinion. Not as good as the first two, story-wise, but better than them when it came to the fore factor :p. I'm saddened that it's over now, however. It was one of my favorite series of horror movies.

Then you'll be happy to know that they're planning a FOURTH movie (Fall 2007), even though I have no idea what they could possibly do next.

I recently watched the 1931 version of Dracula, and found it to be fairly good.

I also saw Mrs. Doubtfire; it was really funny and I enjoyed it a great deal.

I haven't the slightest clue as to how that could be possible either, although I suppose I am kinda happy that the series isn't over yet. They'd better not wreck it though.

That's what I'm worried about, too. I really hope it's not going to go down hill at breakneck speed, like most movies when they reach their third sequel (although most movies are wrecked by their first sequel/prequel).

snuzi 03-13-2007 03:50 PM

I hope it doesn't. It started off too well to just go down like that. It would be a complete and utter waste of a good plot.

Paramite of War 03-13-2007 04:53 PM

I didn't think they would make a third lol cause that dude died.
Also Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels was pretty good.

snuzi 03-13-2007 04:58 PM

Which dude died in the second? Certainly not Jigsaw.

Paramite of War 03-13-2007 05:05 PM

Yes he did he died in the car after that one person went in the house I cant remember if it was the girl or the guy

snuzi 03-13-2007 05:15 PM

Um, no he didn't. You could see his mouth twist into a smile in the car. Besides, he's alive in the third movie, so how could he have died in the second?

Paramite of War 03-13-2007 05:17 PM

Thats what I didn't understand I though it was some plot twist or something.
(Also sorry for turning this into spam)

snuzi 03-13-2007 05:26 PM

Yeah, a plot twist that involves ressurection. That sure works. Why don't we add a mysterious shaman and indian burial ground to the mix while we're at it?

And it isn't spam. This is a topic about movies, and you're discussing movies. So you're on-topic, you goose.

Paramite of War 03-13-2007 05:29 PM

Ok then; didn't blood come out of his mouth in the car?

snuzi 03-13-2007 05:31 PM

Yes, it did. What, does blood coming from someone's mouth symbolize death now? I wasn't aware.

Paramite of War 03-13-2007 05:34 PM

It could depending on the illness.

ziggy 03-13-2007 05:43 PM

Paramite of War, I thought Jigsaw died too in the second one. Because he was all talking about how that girl would take his place, and after he smiled he stopped moving and then the dramatic music came on. It really did seem like they were showing he died. But then I saw the Saw 3 trailer and he was in it. I thought that was skind of stupid, and made that scene less dramatic.

Paramite of War 03-13-2007 05:44 PM

That is exactly what I thought down to the letter.

Cancer patients don't go through any internal bleeding, goose.

I thought that he was dead when I first watched the movie as well. However, the second time around, I saw that his mouth was forming a smile as the music starts playing, so I figured that he couldn't be dead. Besides, you have to take his strength into account. He survived a car crash, and pulled a huge shard of glass out of him, for Christ's sake. Do you really think a beating would stop him?

I thought he was dead at the end of Saw II the first time I saw it. It actually took me a while to realize he wasn't.
I think what happened to him at the end of the third movie is definately the end of Jigsaw (and Amanda). If they show up in the next movie in anything other than a flashback or prequel, I'll have to start wondering if he's actually Rasputin.

snuzi 03-14-2007 10:29 AM

It'll just be completely ridiculous if they do appear in the next movie. I won't even waste my time seeing it if both of them are present.

I thought he died because his age, his disease, and the beating part all put together killed him. I know he survived the car crash because of luck, but get real... he's an old man with cancer, how much could he go through in real life?

Oh, and now I know how Saw 3 ends up... I'm not sure if I'm going to see it anyway though I might eventually :p

You'd be surprised what people with alot of willpower could live through. And him surviving the car crash was certainly not luck. He wanted to live, and motivated himself to endure the pain so that he could survive.

@Everyone: Stop talking about the Saw series, make a seperate thread for it if you must.

Something decent I've seen within the last two days: The Departed. Surprisingly great. Bare through the 2.5 hours, it's worth it.

If we were to create a Saw thread, it'd be closed, and we'd be told to post here. So it'd just be a waste to even create one.

Damn, it seems ike everyone around me has already seen that movie, except me. And hearing how good it is makes waiting for NetFlix to send it my way all the more ununbearable :(.

OddjobAbe 03-19-2007 07:47 AM

I just watched Poseidon .
Not so much a re-make of the Poseidon Adventure, it's quite different, but it's the same story - rogue wave turns a ship upside down, they have to get to the bottom (top - the ship is upside down) to escape. It was really good. It was made by Wolfgang. I've forgotton his first name.

Well, I don't think anyone answered anything, and I myself didn't check though. But on Saturday, I did see a 300. If you hate violence, the movie will suck. But if you're like me, and you don't mind it, it's a great movie. I sat all the way up and saw all the violence and stuff. There is some romances, and weird creatures. It's very cool.

That movie made me laugh at the utter stupidity of the end. If you want to see the movie, don't read this next bit.

Seriously, everyone gets capped in the head at the end. At least let Leo live. At least it was good for a gasp, then hysterical laughter.
