Hehe yeah. But if they shoot balls out of a vagina and facesit living people while
quoting nietsche, it get's at least a little more interesting.

Dude you are ridiculous, did you really think that only America made decent movies?

edit: like even if you DON'T KNOW NUFFIN about movies I thought people generally considered foreign movies fancy and exotic or whatever as opposed to low-budget crap?

Im ridiculous because ive only seen low budget movies coming out from foreign countries? Accept my sincere apologies, sorry for not watching the movies you’ve watched.

Anyways, just finished watching Untraceable.. was actually alot better than I thought it would be. Cant help but wonder if someone was smart enough they could actually pull that off in real life.

Last film I saw was Quantum of Solace... It was incredibly mediocre. The directing was brilliant at points, but the story was weak and the script was only there to bridge the action sequences.

Well, I suppose Ive not been looking for them until now.

Just watched The Mummy 3 - It was terrible, nothing like the first two movies. I hate the fact that the wife was replaced and the posh British son turned into an American prick, no offence to the americans

Avoid this movie - send it to the scrap yard!

Well, I don't know, I just think it's weird that you haven't even heard of any good foreign movies before. Like, you haven't even overheard people saying FOREIGN MOVIES ARE SO ARTISTIC or FOREIGN MOVIES ARE SO FUCKING PRETENTIOUS ever? And even if you haven't, did you just assume that all foreign movies were low-budget crap based on the few you have seen? Have you ever been outside of America?

I don't know, that's just pretty weird to me. I guess it would make more sense if you're like 13 but if you're older than that I would imagine you would be a little more educated or something.

edit: wait according to your last post apparently you aren't american, what are you

I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

Just finished watching "Get Smart". As a long time fan of the TV series, I thought it was pretty good. They kept the charm of the original, I thought. ^.^ I give it a very good.

I'm a born and raised Brit but also a full blooded Italian

After watching all the sh** Italian movies my mother and farther would watch I just assumed the only good movies were the dubbed American movies which is what the Italian cinemas were filled with.
I then went on to watch the same quality type of movies from other foreign countries, thats where my thinking of foreign movies were bad must have come from ... I'll admit I was wrong, but I have seen a ton load of crap come out of these countries..

Last movie I watched was X-files I want to Believe, is wasnt bad but wasnt great either. Worth watching if you ever liked the X file's show

Well, a lot of Italian films are masterpieces and classics, I personally think that you were probably too young to understand artsy shit, which I assume is why you ended up watching big hollywood explosions.

Also can you give examples of "same quality type of movies from other foreign countries".

I don't think anyone should be really getting into the argument of whether or not certain countries make shitty movies. They all have their fair share of terrible shit. You don't hear about those movies because they are terrible. It's beyond me why you guys think there's a valid argument in saying something like, "a lot of Italian films are masterpieces" or "haven't even overheard people saying FOREIGN MOVIES ARE SO ARTISTIC," and basically not possess the extra curricular thinking to assume that not all foreign movies are amazing high art classics, and that Massy2k6 has seen some of the shittier movies that you guys haven't.

The fucking worst. Great job in assuming just as much about foreign films as he did. Stop being gay elitists because you've watched a few movies with subtitles, please.

EDIT:

Event Horizon (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119081/), mostly because I've been so head over heels for Dead Space and remember some people comparing the game to this movie. It was interesting, and I can certainly see how it was an influence, but I think it was just too B-Movie for my tastes. Some of the story really doesn't make too much sense in retrospect and the characters do a few things which seemed to really just make sure the plot kept going. I remember being really freaked out by this movie as a kid, but this time around it didn't really work. The religious imagery is kind of obvious and really not too substantial. I guess it was entertaining though. The visual design was pretty cool.

yes the point is that the most common assumption is that FOREIGN FILMS ARE THE SHIT and it's kind of weird to have the opposite assumption, because the only foreign films that get any press over here are the award nominees.

The point is you guys should stop being elitists and trolls. He already said he was wrong for assuming that he thought most foreign films were trash. He never tried to insult you or your intelligence (over movies, obviously the most important thing you can insult someone over) in any of his posts.

On the other hand passive aggressively...
