whoa @_@

are you sure you ahvent acted before??

man when someone says acting like an ordinary person they mean acting like a jackass. i haven't seen cloverfield but i imagine the characters are similar to the ones in blair witch. i don't want to see a bunch of tom cruise characters, i want to see someone better than average otherwise i'd just go outside and have myself a laugh.

JUST SAW seventh seal and max payne
seventh seal was more like a play than a movie, though given the age it was cut really well (though this might have just been the version i saw). usually old movies have this really big pauses between scenes, i suppose because you can always cut more out of a scene but putting it back is a pain.

max payne is the best video game movies i've ever seen and one of the better action movies too. it captured the atmosphere of the game really well but fortunately not the dialogue heh heh. actually there were a few cheesy scenes and the villian was a bit MADE FOR TV but they were blown across the room by a small calibur handgun

Over the weekend I watched Righteous Kill and (finally) Gran Torino. Righteous Kill was entirely too predictable. I was watching it because a friend liked it and recommended it, but as soon as it became clear there would be no last minute surprise tangent to offset the obvious "twist", it felt like a chore.

Gran Torino was excellent. Eastwood's character is so over the top most of the time that it almost feels like a through and through comedy. I didn't take his character to be so much a racist, as simply someone from another era. He was a product of his day and time, and of his environment. In that way, he is not really that much different from the gang who are giving Thao a hassle, or in other ways from Thao himself - because he does give in and attempt to steal the Gran Torino for his initiation. So, Walt's (slightly less than voluntary) mentoring of Thao is a way for both of them to break away. Not exactly ground breaking, but it works. This is one I will definitely buy when it comes out on DVD.

There were two distinct types of laugher in the theater, though, when I saw this. Most of it seemed genuine, but then there were the nervous outbreaks which were far too loud and went on far too long. These were, I would take it, people who were too offended or shocked to laugh at most of it, but were nervously trying to "fit in." Sort of ironic considering one of the messages of the movie - (Which, regrettably I will have to paraphrase) - The things that stick with a man the most aren't the things he's ordered to do.

battlefield earth would be an alright movie if it was a feature length episode of stargate atlantis and you were inexplicably in love with stargate atlantis

that said a fair few scenes seemed familiar, the gun fight in the lobby and the dilapidated city most poignantly

I've said this before and I'll say it again. Battlefield Earth would have made for a much better religion.

I didn't really see a reason anyone would see this.  It is pretty much that other movie he did already just AGAIN...and the plot isn't good anyway.  What made you choose this movie? 

10,000 BC. Wow what the fuck.

i was visitng my parents and they wanted to watch it. i only watched the first half.
and yeah, what was the other movie that was exactly the same? lying? liar? i didn't know people were allowed to make the same movie twice and give them two different names..

it was liar liar i think


also just got back from the seventh seal, it was a lot better than i expected!  i mean i expected it to be good but i always worry when i see old movies that they're just going to feel too old to me (don't get me wrong i love old movies but some old movies were just so bad technology-wise that the whole thing comes out looking like a mess), i see what climbtree means about the movie being cut really well though!

about it being more like a play than a movie, apparently it was shot with a low budget in 35 days so i guess that's why it's a little scattered like a play would be, but considering those limitations it's surprisingly well done

oh come on.  don't pretend like you both didn't know it was called liar, liar.

I seriously didn't, I just vaguely remembered seeing a trailer for it when it came out!

roman: #1 jim carrey afficionado. dvd of the majestic? hes got it. youtube edited reivew of the turman show click here.

nah but for real liar liar is on tv all the time how'd you never see it.

Because I very rarely watch movies on TV, plus I hate Jim Carrey and always have so!

really? i don't. lol actually, after talking about those movies, i started downloading eternal sunshine of teh spotless mind. i haven't seen that in a long time.
and sorry for not remember names of bad movies from like 15 years ago :P

eternal sunshine and uh.....oh truman show I EVEN MADE A REFERENCE JUST THEN WHY DIDNT I REMEMBER are basically both good movies just conceptually if not in execution and humorwise nothing really topped the Mask which was deliberately over the top so him making FUNY FACE XD was not just being quirky but hey hes got a mask that quite honestly makes him completely insane. all of this obviously imho but I never cared for Ace Ventura or his other stuff as much. THE CABLE GUY.
