Movie thread Part III

I just finished watching 21. It’s pretty good. Now I’ve gotta get good at card games.

Well acted, strong movie. Funny as hell too. Any other fans?

Did anyone like Iron Man?? Had to see it twice just because someone had a seizure at the end of the film. I’d like it, good Marvel movie since X-men 2 .

hay iron man, guess what? i know you’re iron man!

You dont say???

A few days ago I saw Leatherheads and tomorrow or Sunday I’ll see the new Narnia movie. Leatherheads was a pretty good movie.

Saw Beowulf yesterday, didn’t really like it though. :neutral:

Otherwise I’ve been on a Sweeney Todd high for quite some time now. Not just the new movie though but also the 1982 version with George Hearn and Angela Lansbury. I’m not sure which version’s best as they’re both bleeding brilliant :gni:

Just seen Mongol. A fantastic movie about Genghis Khan. Very like Braveheart. Good love story, good action and it was pretty historically accurate.

I liked Beowulf :smile:

I saw Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of The Crystal Skull the other day
It was good :content:
I still like the first one best. I don’t know why, it could just be because of the cheezeyness :tongue:

I’ll be watching it…

I recently watched Walk The Line, the film about Johnny Cash. Anyone else seen it?

I thought it was a fantastic film, I absolutely loved it.

I own Walk The Line. I liked it too :happy:

Well, before I saw Indiana Jones 4 I saw Iron Man
I liked it :happy:

And I saw this movie called Cube.
It’s a cool/weird movie.
I think they have 3 of them out.

iron man was an awesome movie.
i think any other actor would have made a bad movie tho

Yeah
Iron Man is now my second favorite Super Hero (next to Superman)
Then, it’s Batman
I can’t wait until the Dark Knight comes out!

I hated Iron Man. Soooo (continue o’s) cliche ridden and stupid. Robert Downey Jr. only made up for it and he was better in a Scanner Darkly/Zodiac.

The Onion Movie.

BRILLIANT! It may be hard to catch it all, but the movie really bashes the hell out of society, and they do it through hilarious sketches and news reports etc.

Go rent The Onion Movie!

Iron man was alright for entertainment purposes, and Downey Jr. played the role brilliantly. This is a big year for super hero movies, and the wait for Dark Knight is eating me alive:(.

As far as new movies I’ve seen that have stood out…Film Noir, I found was a visual masterpiece, and a great action flick too (a real homage to the old genre).
And Survive Style 5+, I’m not sure how to describe this movie, but…I promise you’ll never see anything like it.

I rented Funny Games
Thumbs down :down:

I thought it was okay until…

SPOILER - Click to view

Peter died, and then Paul went and rewound the movie!

I was like WTF? you can’t do that in a movie!

I watched Iron Man for the first time last night. It was awesome!!

Yeah, I want to see the Incredible Hulk
I’m not sure how that will be compared to Iron Man

Today I rented two movies
The Mist- Okay movie. I liked it. I just thought the ending was too sad. But, I guess not every movie can be happy…

Jumper- I NEED TO TELEPORT IN MY NEXT LD!The movie went by too fast. I think it would of beenMORE gooder as a TV show. How many hours are there in a television series? And how many in a movie?

I don’t know how to explain why it would of done better as a television show.
I guess it’s because there would of been more mystery and more time for action.
It looked like the movie tried to put some mystery in, but it didn’t work out very well…

lol. I feel like a film critic :tongue:

and I’m still new here so hello to all!

What is/are some of your favourite films?
I must say, I have a top seventeen of favourite films, all of which are the only films I’ve rated a 10/10.
They are (in order):
one. eternal sunshine of the spotless mind (michel gondry, 2004)
two. the truman show (peter weir, 1998)
three. punch-drunk love (paul thomas anderson, 2002)
four. taxi driver (martin scorsese, 1976)
five. la vita è bella (roberto benigni, 1997)
six. requiem for a dream (darren aronofsky, 2000)
seven. one flew over the cuckoo’s nest (milos forman, 1975)
eight. 2001: a space odyssey (stanley kubrick, 1968)
nine. groundhog day (harold ramis, 1993)
ten. barry lyndon (stanley kubrick, 1975)
eleven. a clockwork orange (stanley kubrick, 1971)
twelve. psycho (alfred hitchcock, 1960)
thirteen. ferris bueller’s day off (john hughes, 1984)

I re-watched Requiem For A Dream yesterday and it didn’t seem as good, but, it’s still very good. It’s emotional impact is astounding.

As you may gather, I’m a hopeless romantic (and too young to be one at that) so yeah…
