Maybe at the dollar theatre. Can't see myself paying much more for it. Although I think Rachel Weiscz usually does very good movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 I was kind of excited about "A Sound of Thunder" reading it multiple times when I was a kid and than in high school. I'm a sucker for a time travel movie, but it is getting bad bad reviews. May have to wait for DVD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Saw 40 Year Old Virgin earlier. Wasn't as good as it looked or as I'd heard, but it was still damn good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowerCaseRepublican Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 I'm gonna have a lot of films in here for the next few weeks. I'm taking a Japanese and a pan-Chinese (mainland China, Taiwan and Hong Kong) cinema course. First movie we watched was Mizoguchi's The Story of the Last Chysanthemum (1939). Interesting movie...long and kinda dull but it had its moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milkman delivers Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 I just saw The Aristocrats and I had high hopes for it. Let me just say that I can't believe a movie with so many good comedians telling such dirty jokes can be so awful. I had never left a movie early in my entire life...until this one.

Soxy Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 The girls and I went and saw 40 year old virgin today. We laughed, we ahhhhhh'ed, we grabbed our boobs to make sure they didn't feel like a bag of sand. It was a fun little comedy that is surprisingly sweet (along with really raunchy). All 4 of us really enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KipWellsFan Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 I watched The Cooler tonight starring Alec Baldwin, William H. Macy and Maria Bello. It was really great, and the performances from Baldwin as a badass and Macy as a hardluck loser in love were amazing. Anyone who's a fan of Casino or Owning Mahowny must see this right now! It's also got a very original script and interesting takes on characters we've seen before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greasywheels121 Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 I watched Sin City and Guess Who? last night. Sin City's cinematography was very cool eye candy, but I couldn't really get into the story. I guess you have to have a little background knowledge on the comics or something. Â Guess Who? wasn't the greatest thing, but we watched it right after Sin City, and it was a lot lighter and gave you a few laughs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read reviews for it and my understanding was that it was a bunch of different comedians, each telling the SAME dirty joke. The joke has the same punch line each time of course. Supposedly what makes the film awesome, is each comic's build up and all the details before the punch line. That just didn't sound possible and thanks for confirming it.

Yoda Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Â Watched Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome last night and I had forgotten just how cool the Mad Max series is. Mel Gibson is awesome. The beginning is where the majority of the adventure takes place. The characters of the film, like Master Blaster, are what make this movie what it is.

GoodAsGould Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 I just watched A Sound of Thunder and let me say they totally ruined the movie. The acting wasnt that bad but the special effects made it horrible and it should of been a straight to video movie not worth my 8 bucks i spent to see it in the theaters.

OilCan Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 Can't wait for Serenity to come out. Going to the Drafthouse to see it. It's gonna be a blast. They're going to have sing-a-longs and all kinds of stuff there. If you haven't seen any of the episodes.....highly recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
