LosMediasBlancas Posted September 6, 2006 Author Share Posted September 6, 2006 QUOTE(Brian @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 06:38 PM) Or just Scarlett Johannsen nekkid. I'd probably pass out and miss the rest of the movie. Scarlett nekkid is worth the $9.50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But was it hillarious. I can't wait till my friend goes back to working at the theatre on Wednesday so we can mooch free tix off him and see it. I'm thinking it will be better than Transporter 2 (and thats like my favorite movie of the past couple years). Based on the previous it looks ridiculously awful, which means it will be ridiuclously funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samclemens Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I just rented an australian movie called "the proposition". it takes place in the outback when australia was still being colonized. if you like dark westerns, its not too bad. i recommend it. Also, i rented "Lucky # Slevin" too. It's so-so, the ending can be called out about half-way through but its pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never saw the ending coming and this from a guy who predicted the end of Sixth Sense after the first scene. Anyone see Gridiron Gang, Black Dahlia, or Hollywoodland? I may go see one this afternoon.

I saw Hollywood land. The first half was pretty good, the second just dragged on. I wouldn't recommend paying $8 to go see it, but it'd be a decent rental.

Middle Buffalo Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 "The Illusionist" is pretty good. Edward Norton usually is. Unfortunately, e attempts some odd euro-accent that's unneccesary. It kind of comes and goes and distracted me. Also, the antagonist (the crown prince) bears a resemblance to Jude Law. Kind of a Don Swayze v. Patrick Swayze resemblance. I pointed it out to my wife really early in the movie. She said "no way." By the end of the movie she wasn't sure if it was Jude himself. Same facial features and hairline, just a tad ugly.

Flash Tizzle Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Any other horror fans looking forward to the release of "Feast" on DVD? I've heard a lot of buzz about the move since its limited theatrical release last year. It'll be released on DVD October 17. The way I look at it, I'm not expecting a film on par with "Evil Dead II" or "From Dusk Till Dawn." Cost a measly million dollars to finance this movie. Feast is just a lowbudget flick from Project Greenlight by legitimate fans of the genre. No worse than anything else Hollywood trots out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarface - no Carrie - no Carlito's way - haven't seen Untouchable - completely undercut by depalma, over the top in so many ways. The guy is the cecil b. demille of our era, completely superficial as a director. I hate him. He's lucky he had pacino and de niro and garcia and spacek.

The guy is the cecil b. demille of our era, completely superficial as a director. I hate him. He's lucky he had pacino and de niro and garcia and spacek. You're right about one thing -- Brian DePalma is severly overrated. When I think of his movies, not Untouchables in particular, "over the top" does come into my mind. Scarface is one example. Another is his attempt at updating Hitchcock's "Rear Window.'" For the life of me I can't recall the title, but basically, this guy witnesses his neighbor murdered and decides himself to persue the killer. And what's better to persue a killer then becoming a f***ing pornstar and having the 80's song "Relax" played as a soundtrack to a scene. EDIT: Name of movie is Body Double. He's a coked up version of Michael Mann. Atleast Mann can effectively create an atmosphere within his movies without appearing too cheesy. BTW, Carlito's Way is a quality film. I find it far more enjoyable than Scarface. Characters are more believable, story line isn't over sensationalized for the sake of shock-value.

Soxy Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 I went and saw The Science of Sleep last night. Pretty good, in the same thematic vein as Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind--but not as an exceptional film. It was good, though, and worth the price of admission--it definitely has a very European vibe to it, so if you're not a fan of foreign films I wouldn't advise this one. Oh, and ladies, the lead actor, delicious. Probably the best looking thing I've seen onscreen in a very long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
