I Have Just Seen… -

Has anyone seen Slumdog Millionaire? Is it any good? My local newspaper reviewer (who I normally agree with) hated it but it's kicking arse on RottenTomatoes.

Saw Australia in the movie theater. Damn good movie. Go see it!

Facsimile · #**1083** 12-27-2008, 10:40 PM

I've heard very bad things about Australia the movie.

Also, worst name for a film ever.

I just finished watching Hancock.

Twas a good film. Not one of Will Smith's best, but still a good film

I've seen lotsa films over Christmas. Big bunch of silly testosterone and explosions action films. Con Air among them, which had some absolutely brilliant performances in it from John Malkovich and the Hannibal-ish-guy (cant remember the actor's name, and no, not Anthony Hopkins before some clever dick suggests it). Bit silly that he got 8 years in prison for self defence but oh well.

Also recently saw the Golden Compass. Kept fairly true to the book until the ending, which was rather badly bollocksed up in my view. they really cannot make the sequels properly now, or at least not if they want them to be like the actual books.

i watched the new wallace and gromit episode,and the curse of the were-rabbit one.
They were brilliant and funny.I love the attention to detail in them.
for any non-britons,info:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallace_and_gromit

I'm pretty sure absolutely everyone on this forum knows about Wallace and Gromit, except maybe AIN.

Last thing I saw was From Beyond. pretty good rubber work in it. relatively hilarious. about a 7/10.

I didn't really know what to expect, but I was very pleasantly surprised. As a whole I thought it was a pretty good movie, even if it's not packed with action or something. It's worth a download at least, keep it in mind if you have to see a flick with your GF and don't want to fight over action vs drama.

I saw Benjamin Button, holy shit I enjoyed that.

Right? Great movie.

I watched 'Reign Over Me'. Second film with Adam Sandler that I thoroughly enjoyed. Typically, I hate his films. But this and 'Punch Drunk Love' were very good.

I also saw 'Talladega Nights'. I couldn't tell you what made me watch this but boy am I glad I did. SO FUCKING FUNNY!!!!! I'm kidding. I fucking hated it.

Hobo · #**1091** 01-02-2009, 02:05 PM

Holy jesus, your Talladega Nights comment had me scared for a second...

I'm all about the mind fuck. Occasionally, when the mood strikes, I am also about the ass fuck.

I'll be taking Abbey to see 'The Tale of Despereaux' tonight. Will report.

Leto · #**1093** 01-03-2009, 11:35 AM

I wanted to see that, tell me if it's all visual fluff or if it's a spiritual plagiriser of Ratatouille

i saw Inland Empire last night, pretty typical Lynch stuff... have to watch a second time to get some bits etc but it's a toss up between "This film is fun" and "This film was a waste of 3 hours"

Hobo · #**1094** 01-03-2009, 03:30 PM

Oh, I also saw The Spirit and really enjoyed it, but can understand why people would hate it.

Me wants to see that.

I liked 'Despereaux'. It was very good for a kid film.

I refuse to watch Lynch films. At some point I decided to stop volunteering for torture.

I saw it just before Christmas and I have to say it's probably the best movie I saw last year, and for a long time before that.

I had bowel problems during it and missed about half an hour. I should really see it again.

Anonyman! · #**1099** 01-05-2009, 12:56 PM

I liked the Spirit. OH GOD WAS IT CHEESY.
But like, funny cheesy. Like fondue.

I'M THE OCTOPUS I HAVE EIGHT OF EVERYTHING.

OddjobAbe · #**1101** 01-06-2009, 08:02 AM

I just finished re-watching The Prisoner on DVD. What a great TV series. "I am not a number, I am a free man!"

The Watchdog was hilarious. It was a giant white balloon that would stop Number 6 from escaping the island.

Anonyman! · #**1102** 01-06-2009, 01:11 PM

I liked the henchmen. The foot thingy was funny to me.

Disgruntled Intern · #**1103** 01-07-2009, 12:43 AM

Pineapple Express.

Might have been funnier had I been stoned, but still fairly amusing sober.

OANST · #**1104** 01-21-2009, 12:29 PM

I went to see 'The Wrestler' yesterday. It was fucking fantastic. Another great Darren Aronofsky film with the best performance Mickey Rourke has ever given. See it.

OddjobAbe · #**1105** 01-21-2009, 12:30 PM

I just finished watching 'Way Out West' with Laurel and Hardy. Scratch cloning dinosaurs, try and find out how to clone Stan and Ollie.

Anonyman! · #**1106** 01-21-2009, 12:43 PM

Burn After Reading. I recommend it, but I'm not sure why.

It's a very good movie but it's difficult for people to see that because of how tremendously good the Coen brothers previous films were. Taken just by itself and not put into the context of Coen brothers film, I think it does very well.

Havoc · #**1108** 01-21-2009, 02:17 PM

Just saw 7 Pounds in the theater... And damn that movie can just grab you by the throat. I think this was the first time a movie managed to jerk a tear from my eye. I must be getting soft

Then man up and pop a Viagra.
