The first time I saw Life is Beautiful was about two years ago while I was stuck in bed with an insane flu. I remember the thing way back with Benigni at the Oscars walking down the seats, but I didn't really have any idea what the movie was about. I was thinking...ah, a foreign romantic comedy...eh, but it sure beats the football game on the other channel and the cooking shows, so lets see where it goes. Then came the second half.

The movie really got to me. The scene where

Then, at the end

The part that really gets me is when

so just finished watching eyes wide shut. i'm not sure how i feel about it yet though. i didn't DISlike it at least. tom cruise wasn't nearly as bad as i thought he'd be as the lead. it makes me want to have a family even less...
sometimes, you need to quote yourself to feel important.

I just watched the film Punch-Drunk Love. Seen it before, but my god is it wonderful. That camera that just never stops, those lights, those colours, that score, all of it revolving around that brilliant performance by Adam Sandler. It's funny and it's sweet and it's kinda dark and it conveys that sense of panic and dread amazingly, but it's just lovely and magical and right now I'm thinking it's probably edging to be my favourite of Paul Thomas Anderson's movies (even more than that milkshake one...and even more than that porno one.)

haha I watched this last night too. I thought it was awesome how the whole film was basically a mixture of blue and red. Barry where's blue all the time and his office is blue etc, whilst Lena wear's red most of time. I'm not completely sure what its meant to symbolise, but I think it has something to do with their connection together. Also, Harmonium brings them perfect harmony in the end, probably symbolising their love. This is probably why Barry brings it with him when trying to win Lena back.

But yeah, this was the second time watching it for me and so I was looking out for the blues and reds and they're all over the place. It's actually really in-your-face when you are looking for them.

Hellraiser 2: Hellbound

7/10

Great sequel. Julia was awesome. Hasn't aged that terribly, CGI attempts aside.

The writing was great, loaded with subtext, the acting was fantastic, almost every visual element was perfect (cinematography, makeup, hair, costume, set design). I know it's not really a guy movie so it might not be the greatest suggestion for this thread, but if you have to see something with your girlfriend, this is a good option.


Are you fucking kidding? I wouldn't watch this with a girlfriend, ever ever. Couples should not watch this movie together.

I noticed for the first time in this viewing that when he's with her, the colour of Barry's tie always matches with the colour of the last dress Lena wore, which I thought was such a nice, sweet little detail.

Whatever you do, DON'T watch Hellraiser 3! It's so fucking stupid and has nothing to do with the first 2.

I quite liked Hellraiser 2, but I think the budget let it down. Hell could have looked way better and those endless corridors were so obviously painted onto the walls.

I went to some crazy launch party for this film. Haven't seen it. I just danced to some hiphop a lot with some ridiculously pretty girl. Then I bottled it. Oh well.

Just saw Commando. One of the best movies of all time! And best of all, you don't need a fucking instruction book to understand it.

i watched the wrestler last night. it was ok i guess? just a vignette. but while i was watching it i was thinking the following stupid thoughts:

-the difference between Ram and Pam is one leg. that leg. is a penis.
-and following that they are rough doubles
-could be mistaken for a lady from behind with his hair in that bun. particularly the first ???ten??? minutes

Never seen 2001 A Space Odyssey until last week. Worst. Fucking. Film. Ever! So slow and fucking boring. Most of the film was just shots of spaceships slowly floating through space and people eating space dinners. Kubrick is a fucking joke.

i remember trying to watch this movie a while ago because dude spaceships are sweet. i was totally turned off and bored. i was also 12. grow up


anyway this is the last post im making about this sorry guys  :sweat:

it was a two-hour movie!  vamp baseball and THE GLISTENING were probably the only funny parts.  wait no i take that back him gagging when she stood in front of the fan and the three vamps gliding out of the fog on wires holding the baseball was also funny.  that's only like 10 minutes though!  the rest was aaaaaa this is so boring

teenage girls are dumb as fuck though man.  that shit was awful

yeah we hosted a twilight showing the other night and when the movie isn't hilariously goofy it's really rather disturbing. the best part was when edward was watching her sleep and everyone sighed.
nobody minds a stalker that has urges to hurt them if he's a hot.
