Okay, I've seen Prometheus, here's what I think.
Overall it's a great sci-fi film with fantastic graphics. Plot is a bit so-so, some of the "plot twists" you can see a mile away, while other bits may surprise here and there. In particular I thought the medical machine and some of the technology used was very cool, the alien designs were okay and the tentacly things are great as always (can't go wrong with tentacles). No major complains. I guess David was a bit bland and Vickers was a bit of an annoying hardass but oh well, they were meant to be like that. It's a lot better than Resurrection and a million times better than Alien 3. Cast were good, particularly Fassbender. Also they are considering on making a sequel to this film which may answer some more questions (and no doubt pose many other mysteries left to solve). Also, two little answered questions: 1) How do the alien eggs in Alien get there? 2) What happens to Mrs Shaw, and does she ever get to give her alien baby a big hug and a glass of milk? :3 |
I was with you until the final line.

I've been reliving some old memories as a kid so I watched all of Courage the Cowardly Dog (good steam) and I've started watching Dragonball Z again. The cheesiness in DBZ is almost to good to be true but yeah, I miss the roaring and the shouting and the ridiculous amount of filler that I like.
|
I watched Scott Pilgrim with a bunch of friends, who were split between being enthralled and bewildered.
Personally I enjoyed the sound production in the movie (particularly the guitar motifs), but thought that it was overhyped and trying way too hard to appeal to the geek/hipster culture. |
Yeah, I didn't really like it at all. The plot was boring and repetetive and I just didn't care about the main character at all.
|
I’ve really come to hate the character that Michael Cera plays in most movies. He’s always the useless pathetic nerd, which doesn’t make for a good lead role and becomes irritating very quickly.
|
It was good the first few times, but that ideas been overused a shitload.

As for Micheal Cera, he's got a lot of range and it's not his fault that studios liked typecasting him. I can't find a clip of it but he's done a couple of things with Tim and Eric where he breaks the MC mold and is really, really funny. Actually, found one. This is the worst example but at least he's not stuttering at his pregnant girlfriend or dropping shit on the ground. note the car speeding away I watched Chairman of The Board. You can see Carrot Top's dick in this movie, no joke. At one point he tries to cover up with a plaster duck or some shit and his mushroom tip is just peering out behind it. Oh, and the movie was fucking stupid. You want a review? Shut up. |
Scott Pilgrim was the most horrible movie I've seen between the remake of The Day The Earth Stood Still back in 2008 and The Immortals a week ago.
And that's that. |
Oh Joe, oh Joe Joe Joe.
-Gundam -Taste Pick one If you didn't have fun watching Scrote Fulcrum then you were trying not to enjoy it. I watched the season Finale of Game of Thrones. Medieval zombie army marching with winter so they won't rot fuuuuuuck! Those fucking Ironborn assholes, oooooooh. Tyrion got his nose burnt off in the book, idiots! Wait was who John Snow killed important? And why didn't they explain what in the shit Sansa was going to do? Gawdammit. |

I'm also being maybe a little too harsh. I'm fairly sure I would rather watch Scott Pilgrim again than, say, Redline. |
Game of Thrones finale. All in all it was pretty good. I would have said that it was very good if not for two things.
The first. Danyryeissshuusss. I hate her. I hate her, hate her, hate her. I hated her in the books, and hate her even more in the show. The saddest thing about this whole series to me is I am quite sure that she is the only person safe from death. I hate her stupid eyebrows. I hate her stupid dragons. I hate her stupid story. The second. There is absolutely no context given for why Winterfell was burned down. I mean, I know why it was burned down, but how did they not have old teacher man at least say that he thought it was weird that Rob Stark's own men burned the fucking place down after the Iron Islanders surrendered? How? Were those of you who didn't read the books not confused by this? |
:
I liked the early Dany story, where she was tooling around with Drogo and just seemed to be aimlessly gathering supplies or something. Given the ending to her little episode in Carth, it just seemed like nothing was accomplished apart from Jorah mugging at her a bunch. The ending shot was fucking perfect though. :

At any rate, Robb's own men burned Winterfell down. You'll find out why next season, I imagine. :

Is in anyone else as excited as I am to see Brave?
|
I am. I usually like Pixar films. I absolutely adored Wall-E.
|
I think Brave looks poop. But I also don't like Pixar that much, so don't listen to me.
|
Pretty much every Pixar movie is fantastic in my eyes (I haven't seen Cars 1 or 2, nor do I plan on it). Some may be due to nostalgia, but honestly I think Pixar just knows how to tell a fantastic story. And make it look very pretty.
|
Pixar has always been amazing
also i just saw (even though im a little bit late xD) rambo 1-3 its actually quite nice to watch an old movie, i quite enjoyed it http://onviolence.com/images/2010-10...rambo_4_iv.jpg |

No. |

That's actually laughable. |

I shuppose because they make their films ina different way, and have a wider audience. Pixar's jokes are too, well, 'for little kids'. For me to laugh at. I suppose its just a matter of taste.
|
You're a funny guy.

I'm not even a fan of Pixar, and I can tell you that nothing Dreamworks has ever made has been better than Pixar. "How to Train Your Dragon" and "Antz" to some degree, but they're still only as-good-as, if that.
You can argue that anything is better than Cars and it's sequel. But Cars remains the poorest representation of Pixar's longstanding portfolio. |
