I thought it started slow, but got better when the British rocker guy appeared after that guy's first scene in Hawaii.

ETA: Oh yeah, and there is far too much schlong in that movie. That's the second movie in which that guy has done full frontal flashes. I think he's trying to show off, a little guerrilla advertising to the ladies.

I liked it...But maybe that had more to do with the eye candy in Mila Kunis and Kristen Bell.:cool: :D

I do like the eye candy, but I still think "Jackie" when I see Kunis, and that's annoying.

And halfway through it. It's still not better. Goddam my (mostly) insistance of watching a movie through.

Saw Clash of the Titans and enjoyed it a lot. There is some dialogue that was meh, but I think it's getting an unfair amount of hate from critics. It seemed to take a lot of influence from God of War, and honestly I think it's better than the original.

Medusa was great. That always bugged me about the original, she was just sooo slow, that it was hard to think that a group of soldiers wouldn't have been able to just overwhelm her. Here she was probably the most dangerous being. I believe she takes out six of the group. Calibos got about 3 (not as good a character design as the original), and the scorpions only got 2 iirc. Although the one guy the scorpion kills by repeatedly stabbing him with the stinger was awesome.

Bubo showing up was great.

saw it in 3D, thought it was pretty good...not too scary for kids in case parents were wondering...I wouldn't have cast Liam Neeson in that role and instead would have gone for a no-name...they didn't need a big name in that role. 3D didn't subtract from the movie as I feared it might

Ok this last half of Sarah Marshall is making the first hour of torture worthwhile. The dual *ing scene is the topper to the sequence previous. :D :eek:

Saw "Up in the Air" yesterday. Really liked it. Funny, but dark.

And a Cornell reference.

For Best Picture I was either for that or Avatar. Up in the Air has a very strong plot and acting, but then Avatar had the really awesome effects. In the end it depends on which factor go more strongly into the concept of "best picture".

Of course, the person from Cornell had no idea what they were doing. :D

Agreed on the acting. It was great. I really like Anna Kendrick, even though she is from Maine and is affiliated with Twilight. Hopefully she continues to be good in other roles.
 
Re: New/Rented movies: Here comes the movie to change all movies

Saw the Hurt Locker yesterday, good flick, just kinda wished they had used a few more steady cam shots when they were all running around. Its an usefull tool to have, but you don't have to beat us over the head with the cameraman all running around.

Did love the scene there where he's coming back onto base and gives them his explanation for being outside.

Last time I flew out of Detroit Metro, they were setting up a scene at the gate right next to mine for that movie. Unfortunately, George Clooney wasn't scheduled to arrive on set until just after my flight was supposed to take off. :(

My parents good friends were at St. Louis when they were doing their scenes there. They took some pictures, but weren't allowed to get terribly close, obviously.

"Didn't you ever wonder why it was called the Sprit of St. Louis?"

"No."

They might've locked things down more after I left, but the only thing blocked off while I was there was the moving walkway, and even that was probably just so people wouldn't be walking directly in front of a camera that they were trying to get calibrated.

Sure, but she was good at it though!

Yeah, I was most impressed by her, odd that the only other thing she had done was Emo Sparkly Vampires.

I really had no interest in any Ironman movie until I just saw a preview for Ironman 2. Scarlett Johansson. WOW.
 
Re: New/Rented movies: Here comes the movie to change all movies

Inglourious Basterds (Tarantino):

Awesome. Even the subtleties (like when the German soldier is trying to hit on the French Jew). "Hey this guy might be attractive, except for the whole trying to exterminate my people."

Well done, and a bit different than other Tarantino movies.


Boondock Saints II: Disappointing. It was okay and all. However, I think they tried too hard to capture the "magic" of the first one, and added twists and turns just to add twists and turns. d
 
Re: New/Rented movies: Here comes the movie to change all movies

After acting on a hunch, Romeo in Boondocks II is Tack from The Stoned Age! I *ing KNEW IT!!!!! That's hilarious on so many levels. :D

Pretty much my thoughts as well. Forced it almost the whole movie and made it painful to watch.

Awful acting too.

Is that the Gene Rayburn movie? That sounded like a really strange concept piece.
 
Re: New/Rented movies: Here comes the movie to change all movies

It is the movie about Chuck Barris, the guy who made The Dating Game, Newlywed Game and Gong Show. It is based on his book where he claims he was a CIA assassin while making those shows.

Seriously...terrible.
