Iron Man

on monday i watched: fando y lis & and amateur (the hal hartley film)

A 90 minute powerpoint presentation delivered by an ex-politician with some kind of point to prove.

chronicles of narnia - prince caspian. damn it was violent! pretty good flick.

this is such a great movie
really good visuals
i think everyone that likes weird dark films should watch this
and its australian

im not there-terrible

This monstrosity pooed all over the fantastic novel. I hadn't even planned to watch it but the precious youngsters of my family insisted we rent it last weekend when I babysat. I certainly didn't mind some changes in the narrative... changes are usually necessary... but the film was just fucking stupid. I just loooved the little bit of narration at the start, ripped straight from Fellowship of the Ring, that helped dumb things down for the kiddies and their impatient parents. Nicole Kidman was surprisingly good but I think she may have been the ONLY good thing about this turd.

It sucked all of the magic and tension out of the book. I deliberately attempted to fall asleep toward the end so I didn't have to watch anymore.

I love my sister's kids... and I had to do my best at smiling when they hopped all over me and gushed about how amazing the film was.

are u kidding?
terrible?
man....so wrong

Just watched:


Now watching:


Odd combo, but I'm bored and they're on Encore.

I have to disagree. The mood in many bits was so not-indy. The great thing about old indy movies is that somehow even with "unbelievable" plots they somehow managed to stay down to earth, this goes too much overboard. I can't express myself better, sorry :(.

couple nights ago - wild at heart

last night - black orpheus

I love wild at heart. Good call.

I watched Across the Universe the other night and I didn't care for it. Everyone else I know loves it though, so maybe it's just me.

NO, NO, NO. It's such a trite film.

bottle rocket

Question: What would you rather have on in the background as you work--as in real work--on the computer? A familiar movie, or a familar album? For me, used to be music, but now I find it's more soothing to have a movie on in the background, even if I don't even pay attention to it.

GAY.

Bob, just because you're a fuck-up doesn't mean you're not my brother.

Sorry. That gay was for girlgun. I was doing 80 down the freeway at the time so cut me some slack.

That was a cool flick - saw it on IFC. Lot's of overdramatic people. Reminds me of clicks I've been around.

I saw Crystal Skull and Iron Man this weekend.

Crystal Skull felt like too much was filmed on a set and not on location. Action sequences were mostly cool. I liked the chase around New Haven, Ct.

Iron Man was well-done. The soundtrack was kinda weak.

Howard Stern Private Parts

Jesus.

Crypto just lost a close friend to impaired driving & you sit there and tell us you were driving while online?

What the fuck is this world coming to? Is it any wonder I'm growing more and more afraid to leave the house?

Just finished watching this gem:

Aww no way! I hated that film. That firggin bit where that lass gets chased by one zombie whilst that twat of a dude just stands there and films it was high on the cringe-o-meter for me "is this your film now"

Just bloody awful.

excellent movie
saw there will be blood
brilliant brilliant brilliant

rebel without a cause.

machine girl - 9/10
Hot Asian schoolgirl in a film produced by the always-reliable Tokyoshock. Can be found for $12 at Wal-Mart (!!!! They sell unrated films their now? And gore films even?!). Total gore film, actually probably the goriest film I've seen since Murder Set Pieces (meh), Premutos, and Dead Alive. Up there with Riki-Oh's gore actually. There might be more in this: Heads being blown off, people being cut in pieces by chainsaws, blood spurting EVERYWHERE ENDLESSLY, uh.. a scene where a woman vomits blood and then mucus and pus and then her own interestines out.. Hilarious comedy, kung-fu, and almost every kid in this film gets killed. Every KID. Every CHILD. Tons of explicit child murders! It's hilarious and a good time for all and probably the best film I've seen since the 00's started. Highly reccomended.


Visions of Suffering - 7/10
Without a doubt, the most fucked-up film you will ever see in your life. I can't even explain it. More fucked up than Id, Begotten, Holy Mountian, Tetsuo, Videodrome, etc. COMBINED. Uh... every film effect you can think of is used... 3D scythes ripping open testicles.. fuck, I can't even explain this, you just have to see it...

diary of the dead - 4/10
Can't figure out whether to call this "diary of the dud" or "diary of the dull". Completely lame. Romero keeps proving he is an untalented hack. He has precisely 3 good films -- Dawn of the Dead, Crazies, and Martin (Night is alright but it's bested by Tom Savini's remake!). His "Dead" films in particular have been getting a lot worse as of late. This one is interesting, and it's well-directed... I like the long takes, the "no cuts at all and then a gore scene would happen"; it's actually pretty revolutionary. So, yeah, as a sign of things to come in the world of movies, it's pretty inspiring. As a film, it's completely uninspired. More stupid social commentary, the zombies looked like shit, the gore was alright but actually pretty cheesy, there were hardly any zombies, the characters were annoying, and it just.. didn't... DO anything. It didn't really go anywhere, instead it was Romero trying to make some obvious and cliche points about paranoia and the effects of the internet/tv/etc. Predictable and boring.

28 days after.

last wednesday i saw:

iron man, a lot better than expected, i had a ton of fun. love that they included the coda part of the song at the end, and i laughed whenever jeff bridges spoke because i kept thinking about the dude.

then indiana jones (i haven't done a double feature at the theater in a decade maybe), exactly what i expected, cate blanchett's comedic acting notwithstanding. again, tons of fun.

and i have returned from the movies and saw:

niwemang, awesome awesome awesome!!! can't recommend it enough, total doom movie, the music rules and the story is great, it's comedy is so dark yet funny, i sometimes laughed without knowing if it was something bad happening. great story, amazing scenes. i recommend it again.

^ yea Iron Man kicked so much more ass than i thought

I recently watched this movie called Dark City, i think the director also did The Crow. Anyway at first i thought it was gonna be cheesy but really turned out great, suspensful and gave alot to think about

watched indiana jones and kingdom.... pretty good for what it is. waiting for the happening to be released.

Ray

I didn't feel like watching it but someone put it on. It was hot and I couldn't sleep so Ray was watched instead of me, sleeping.

Eventually we all confirmed that no one was passed out and we found a fan, plugged the thing in and went to bed. Nice and cool.

Ray just isn't a movie I ever feel like watching, although it is a fairly good movie.

^ this. Meh.

Carrie, for my first time ever

I liked it?

I kind of need to watch it again. I was spacing out (unrelated to the movie) half the time.

hell yeah, it's a really weel done entertaining movie.
about Bridges, HOW FUCKIN' BIG is he?
in tbl you sorta wouldn't notice, coz most of the time he had huge boy goodman on his side, but in iron man he really looks BIG.
