I wound up watching it on my laptop on a 6am flight to Denver. It was probably because I was so tired that I got all slap happy and laughed throughout most of it. I couldn't imagine watching it again though.

 

And of course expectations play a big part in the movie going experience. I popped it in with zero expectations. Had I heard a lot of good things I may have been more of a prude about it and sneered as I watched.

 

I definitely had high expectations, but I was in a great mood. It was the day I moved into my apartment for Senior year of college, all giddy and looking forward to a great year. It still disappointed.

i almost walked out on Magnolia. The funny thing is that i really like that movie now, but only after i have had the leisure to watch it at my own pace and skip through some of the overly drawn out scenes. The scene where john c reilly investigates the apartment and ends up having coffee with that f***ed up blonde cokehead, i just wanted to scratch out my eyeballs.

Finally got around to seeing Buried last night. Tough movie to watch, but I really liked it. Very tense.

Like the ending?

I know he is not for everyone... but i just finished off watching every film woody allen has either wrote or directed. I even watched ''zelig'' again last night for a poster here... leonard zelig. I was going through his filmography several day ago and realized that there were only six films combined that i have not seen. So, naturally, i wiped out what i had not seen... and now i will probably go back and watch a few of his true classics.

 

I am about a s big a Woody Allen fan as there is, but even I don't think I could watch them all in a short timespan without getting agitated.

Like the ending?

 

Not at first. The more I thought about it, the more I liked it.

Seriously? I'm not even a horror fan, and I enjoyed that. I've only ever walked out of, I believe, two movies in my life. I reserve that for the very worst dreck out there.

 

 

Me neither but i thought it was terrible, walked out about an hour in, and i walk out of bad films every now and then

 

These are the ones i can think of that i walked out on

 

Battle LA

Inception

Nothing Like The Holidays

Clash of The Titans, A Former Friend dragged me to this and i wanted to walk out but i just ended up texting in the back row until it was over

*prepares for an all out assault in this thread*

Well that's just kind of a bizarre one to walk out on. The praise was a little much, but it'd be pretty hard to argue that it was a bad movie.

 

Although to be fair my wife's uncle walked out on it as well, but he had no idea what it was going in.

Bucky Larson managed a whopping $1.5 million opening weekend. Now that, sirs, is a bust.

 

Also landed the coveted 0% at Rotten Tomatoes.

I don't believe that I've ever walked out on a film. Of course, I rarely go to non-mainstream films in the theater.

Hopefully everyone involved in that film is now blacklisted.

I want to seriously injure the guy from the commercial who introduces the movie. The QB from the Waterboy.

He'll do anything for Sandler. Remember the gay open-mouthing kissing scene in Big Daddy?

Yes, I do. I just can't stand his voice or the inflection, and it's magnified a thousand times intentionally for those commercials.

I still think he is hilarious as the drug dealer in "Grandmas Boy", lol

Adam Sandler included.

Yeah I love him in Grandma's Boy but those commercials are just bad. I really wonder about those guys in Sandler's Happy Madison camp, they have really fallen off lately. They have to look at these film and know they SUCK really bad.

yup, you got that right!!

Esquire has some brief reviews on the films currently showing at the Toronto Film Festival.

 

Most every page in there has the trailer imbedded (also, how do I embed youtube clips on here?)

Having read nothing about it, the trailer for 'The Raid' looks pretty crazy.

After 38 reviews, Drive is at 95% at Rotten Tomatoes.

I don't know about MMA but "Warrior" was pretty incredible. Got goosebumps multiple times.

I'm going to fap during Drive on Saturday night.

Because of Gosling or Christina?
