Brian Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Way from left field, but I caught the end of Parenthood on cable the other day, hadn't seen it in years and when I did, I may of been too young to get it. Is it assumed at the end that Larry is killed my the gangsters when he says he wants to go to Tokyo, or is it assumed that he is just running of like he always did and leaves the kid behind?

Brian Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Wow, was I disappointed in "A History of Violence". Read good reviews but man did that acting suck and the dialogue was laughable. The story and idea were there but just missed the boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxy Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Saw The Exorcism of Emily Rose last night. It was kinda scary. Interesting food for thought, glad I only paid $2 for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoodAsGould Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I saw Fog and it was the dumbest movie Ive ever seen... and I go to the theaters almost every Friday so im there a lot which is saying something. I saw the original and it wasnt that bad but the remake is just beyond horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercy! Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I saw Fog and it was the dumbest movie Ive ever seen... and I go to the theaters almost every Friday so im there a lot which is saying something. I saw the original and it wasnt that bad but the remake is just beyond horrible. Now why would they want to go and remake a perfect movie? Doesn’t everyone remember the original, with that great American actress, Adrienne Barbeau (who just happened to be married to the director, John Carpenter, at the time)? Of course, Adrienne shined in the TV sitcom, Maude, playing Bea Arthur’s daughter. Oh never mind. Most of you weren’t even born way back then.

KipWellsFan Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 FOR ZOMBIE FANS ONLY This is an awesome and perhaps the awesomest trailer for a movie called Worst Case Scenario. The thing is, this trailer is for a movie that has not yet been made and was just used as a promo for investors and while I haven't heard any recent news, Brian Yuzna(Re-Animator) is apparently producing. http://www.gorehoundinc.com/ Click the poster then promoreal tab for the trailer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everytime I see the (bad) trailer for The Fog, I think to myself "This is what The Mist is gonna be. A hastily done, not well thought-out, poorly adapted film that will forever tarnish my personal mental adaptation of a crazy story by Steven King. Damnit."

Is it assumed at the end that Larry is killed my the gangsters when he says he wants to go to Tokyo, or is it assumed that he is just running of like he always did and leaves the kid behind? The way I interpreted it was that Larry's Dad (Jason Robards) paid Larry whatever money he needed so he wouldnt get in whatever trouble he was in, and then told Larry to leave Cool there with them. I also watched that movie recently, and noticed alot of things that went right over my head when I was a 12 year old watching it for the first time. Most notably the vibrator scene. I was laughing so hard i started crying when i saw that. Steve Martin rules. I watched Bowfinger the other day, and I think that movie got a raw deal. I thought it was really funny.

Seeing it once is fine because Aronofsky is quite talented and it's cool to watch his work...but it is so depressing and chaotic that I can't watch it any more than that.

easyw Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 I watched "The Man With The Golden Arm" last night starring Frank Sinatra. Its the film version of the famous Nelson Algren book. Sinatra won an Oscar for his performance. Great old film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw Requiem For A Dream when it came out mostly because I'm an Ellen Burstyn fan. I liked the split screen stuff and the overall visual look. Don't remember a heck of a lot about it except that it was a great Just Say No to Drugs film. LOL Actually, the whole treatment of the ingestion/injection of the chemicals really grabbed me - the pupils, the sounds, the colors - what a rush!

The Rock kind of sucked which sort of disapointed me but the first person part of the movie was really cool and not overused at all.

You don't go to a movie based on a game expecting it to be life-altering. You go to see some good action, gore, etc. Doom really delivered (pun intended) on that. It didn't drag on and it wasn't boring. I'd definitely watch it again for a cheap thrill. I won't buy it, but I have friends that will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Sox Josh Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I saw 2 movies: Crash (best movie of the year so far) and Hotel Rawanda (it was Ok). Crash is very powerful and it really makes you think about racial treatment that sort of go unnoticed. Ludacris was great as was all the rest of this cast. The visuals were excellent. Hotel Rawanda was ok but not great. Don Cheadle was great and deserved an oscar nominee but other than that i wasn't that impressed. I can't wait for Jarhead to come out Friday.
