[QUOTE=AK'z;48500174]also it is tom cruise's best performance by miles ;)[/QUOTE] I might actually disagree with that, I really liked him in Eyes Wide Shut

tom cruise's best performance is tropic thunder

[QUOTE=bdd458;48499201]Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation - 8/10 Actually haven't seen the other MI films, but really enjoyed it. Liked the thriller aspect, and it was enjoyable to watch.[/QUOTE] check out ghost protocol, its fantastic

[b]Fant4stic 4(2015)[/b] "Yeah, but can he stretch his dick?" Somehow, someone showed up drunk to the theater. On a Thursday. At 6 PM. Whoever they were, they are my hero because their stupid laughs made the movie a hundred times more entertaining. Are Johnny's lines about Adolf Hitler and Borat in the original movie? The translators either added or kept them, and they were fucking gut-busting to the audience. They replaced Sue's "check out dr doom here" remark, too. I liked the first part of the movie with them setting up the Quantum Gate and what not, I didn't mind the first transportation sequence, I hated the rest of the movie. However, the Akira hallway scene looks way more effective on a big screen and with proper sound mixing. Fuck the stupid flaccid climax, it felt so rushed. As someone here said, you can actually notice the movie quality decline sharply in hairpiece scenes. Why didn't Trank just Alan Smithee it? I know I would if this movie is what I had to present. My enjoyment came not from the movie itself but from people in the theater riffing it. I hope they release a director's cut (LOL) on a dvd some day, might be worth checking out. 4/10

i think fox announced the video release would be an extended cut with like an extra half hour thrown in

[QUOTE=Demeschik;48501240][b]Fant4stic 4(2015)[/b] Are Johnny's lines about Adolf Hitler and Borat in the original movie? [/QUOTE] Yes and they made just as little sense in the English version as well. [QUOTE]Why didn't Trank just Alan Smithee it? I know I would if this movie is what I had to present.[/QUOTE] I recall reading somewhere that the Director's Guild actually got rid of the Alan Smithee thing after the bomb of [I]Burn Hollywood Burn: An Alan Smithee Film[/I]. [editline]20th August 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=Pops;48501250]i think fox announced the video release would be an extended cut with like an extra half hour thrown in[/QUOTE] Why. The stuff that we saw sucked abysmally so why even include more of it?

shout-out to dr doom the most relatable character in the movie

Re-watched No Country of Old Men I'd give 8/10 Nothing much to say. Good movies don't inspire me to write whole text walls I guess Maybe if I tried a bad film

I haven't seen the film yet, but judging by reviews I assume this review is better than the actual film.

[QUOTE=Demeschik;48501240]Why didn't Trank just Alan Smithee it?[/QUOTE] I don't think you [I]can[/I] Alan Smithee (or whatever the equivalent would be) these days - at least, not if it's a high-profile job - because there's so much publicity. You can have articles and articles covering every step of the production - from [I][RUMOR] 'Chronicle's Trank Considered to Helm New "Fantastic Four" Reboot[/I] all the way through interviews and on-set pics and leaks.

[B]The Descent[/B] Holy shitballs watched this at like 2 am with my girlfriend and this movie just scared the crap out of me and her, honestly one of the few horror movies thats actually creeped me out and scared me. Would highly recommend if you're seeking horror.

[QUOTE=cheetahben;48476285]this movie is honestly perfect to me and I would put it in my top 20 films or so[/QUOTE] (The Descent) I am sure I would have loved that movie if I saw it by myself, I am a sucker for horror movies, but fuck it was totally ruined for me due to the circumstances of which I watched it in. Movie nights with my friends are the worst, talking through the whole movies and making totally irrelevant comments about everything. [editline]20th August 2015[/editline] Now, the LAST movie I watched was The fucking Waterboy (Adam Sandler flick). It is pretty good considering it's Sandler, way better than his newer stuff, overall just a feel-good comedy with pretty shitty humor but likable characters. Fun to watch if you've got nothing else or just bored out of you mind. I do like shitty comedies tho, mostly ironically, I like something simple to watch at times. [B]5/10[/B] Though that was the second time I saw it (my friends shitty movie nights demanded to watch an Adam Sandler flick. Yeah.), so let's say it doesn't count as the last movie I watched. Now, the last movie I watched for the first time was [B]The Big Lebowski[/B]. THAT is a quality comedy, holy shit. The plot is so stupid, loved it so much. The main characters are so messed up. I won't say much, just watch it. Probably the best all-comedy movie I can remember to have seen. [B]8/10[/B]

Well it took me a while to get to a theater near me that was actually showing it, which coincidentally was the old theater in my old neighborhood before I moved, but I finally got around to seeing [B][I]Shaun the Sheep[/I][/B]. I was a little bit skeptical about it, having never seen the show that it's based on and hearing that it has no dialogue for its entire runtime. I am pleased to say that this was a delight and probably one of the best experiences I've had at a theater in a long time. Maybe it was the nostalgia of the theater, but Shaun the Sheep has a certain kind of charm to it that made me feel a kind of childish glee. The fact that I saw it with my grandmother, who absolutely loved the film, probably helped as well. I loved the visuals, which are packed with little details and gags that will probably go unnoticed by most people, and the way the characters are animated in a way that tells you all you need to know about the scene without a single word of dialogue. I laughed, I cried, I had a lot of fun with this film, and I might even say I enjoyed this film just as much if not more than I did [I]Inside Out[/I]. 8/10

Kingsman: The Secret Service 4/5 What a fun movie. Colin Firth and Samuel L. Jackson were top notch and the action was phenomenal. The church scene was fucking astounding. As far as the plot went, it was nice to have a megalomaniac villan take on the world in a ridiculous way. Everything just oozed fun. Also, special mention goes to Taron Edgerton. The dude's pretty damn good.

just watched dale and tucker vs evil with the gal, was a lot funnier than i expected and she loved it. really great characters with some wicked solid performances all around, especially from the main pair. if you want a 'horror movie' genre bender like cabin in the woods, but significantly more on the nose, you dont have to look much further than Dale and Tucker [editline]20th August 2015[/editline] it being eli craig, a lot of the style and comedy is very reminiscent of zombieland the series (and takes a lot from the original of course). Lots of fun gore with the main characters permanently wearing a 'oh my god what is going on' face

How do all you folk feel about talking to whoever you're watching a movie with while watching the movie? I can't not poke someone and be whispering crap like, "Hey! That's the guy! They totally are gonna do that with the thing!"

That's the guy! They totally are gonna do that with the thing!"[/QUOTE] It really depends. Like, I watched Ant Man with a friend and we got shitty front row, far left seats at an imax screen. Because of the screen's curve and our angle, whenever someone was in the frame one side of their face would be WAY lower than the other. Made it look like everyone had a fucking stroke, and we were absolutely losing it. We kept it quiet to be respectful, but it honestly made the movie way better since there was something to laugh at. It also depends on the movie. Ant Man is also perfect for this, as is any """popcorn movie""". The last thing I'd wanna do is watch some gritty drama with a friend killing the mood every 5 minutes, but sometimes an active audience can make the movie.

Kirk Cameron's Saving Christmas 9/10

Would really rather people didn't talk in the theater during the movie unless it's really bad or something. Getting stuck next to people who won't shut up really sucks. The occasional remark to a friend is okay, just don't overdo it and turn into a social event.

It's been a long time since I've seen them but they were extremely charming and entertaining when I was a kid.

"Who's that?", and generally speaking those questions are answered 5 seconds later.

My mum will try and guess what the next line is going to be almost constantly and if there is any text on screen, even on a sign or something, she'll read it out loud as if everyone else has somehow missed it. I can't stand watching movies with her in the room, it's a nightmare.

What's funny is that since my grandmother and I were literally the only two people at Shaun the Sheep we talked over it commenting about it. There was no one else in the theater so we weren't going to ruin anyone else's fun and it wasn't like we were talking over dialogue in this movie. I think if for whatever reason there's no one else in theater than yeah go ahead and talk to your friends and whoever else you've gone to see it with, but don't do it if there are other people in there.

Seeking a Friend For The End Of The World Steve Carell, Kiera Knightly. You think it would be a comedy, and it says it is, but it isn't. Kind of depressing. Pretty good though. On netflix reminds me of another very similar movie starring Sandra Oh that was also pretty good but I can't recall the name of it [editline]21st August 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=Katska;48506639]Would really rather people didn't talk in the theater during the movie unless it's really bad or something.

She came down a couple months ago since everyone loves to use me as a vacation house and we saw San Andreas. Every time something happened, it was a reaction from her. A loud audible reaction. "Holy shit" "Ohhhhh" Holy shit? It's CGI of a building collapsing big woop why did you have to make everyone hear you say Holy Shit? Have you never been to a movie before? Are you from the year 1785?

It depends on the movie. If we're watching [I]Cobra[/I] I'll riff on it, [I]Pacific Rim[/I] I'll excitedly "oh boy here we go", and I'll laugh at comedies, but if it's a serious or slow movie I'm quiet. I really like slower or more ethereal movies that sort of draw you in to what's going on onscreen (Drive, Interstella 5555, Ex Machina, Heat, Thief) and please don't talk to me [I]and don't laugh or riff[/I]. I don't watch enough horror movies to know how I react there, though it's mostly quieter stuff like gasps or jumps. My family talks sometimes - mostly my mom who will ask stuff like "What're they going to do now?" (to which I invariably respond "let's watch the movie and find out"). My roommates are also talky moviewatchers - one laughs a lot (I'm not really sure if there's a correlation between what's funny to him and what's meant to be funny onscreen) and the other talks ("No, no, no, don't go in there! Auugh..." or even just "Oh my god! What the fuck?"). Depending on what kind of movie I'm watching I'll sometimes try to watch it when I'm alone to avoid feeling uncomfortable while watching. I do love to talk about movies [I]afterwards[/I] but during the movie it's all about muh immersion

I know I'm late to the party, but the movie was released later in Italy Ant-Man 8/10 What I find incredibly amusing about this movie is how it manages to be a good film by subverting all your typical tropes from the recent big dick Marvel movies. To elaborate: - Your average Marvel movie is filled with useless subplots and convulted threads. Ant-Man instead has a linear, simple plot with a clear objective - Your average Marvel movie loves to cather to the MCU continuity at the expense of the single film. Ant-Man instead just features [sp]a combat scene between Scott and Falcon[/sp], which is actually an integral part of the plot and that's it. The Avengers are mentioned in the movie and at the end is implied Ant-Man is going to join them: no useless or shoehorned cameos - Your average Marvel movie tries to bring comedy into a serious setting and fails spectacularly at it, with far too many jokes that ruin the modd and are generally not funny. Ant-Man instead doesn't take itself seriously and allows the odd premise and the strange situations the characters find themselves in to do the comedy, to great effect. And since we are on this subject, the final battle of Ant-Man actually mixes up well tension and comedy, something that CAN'T be said for any Marvel movie this far - Your average Marvel movie contains horrible comic relief characters who get far too much screentime for their own good. Ant-Man does have a trio of such characters, but their presence is berable at worst and welcomed at best instead If anything, this movie is leagues better than Age of Ultron, nor that it takes too much effort to beat that down. Cross is also better than Ultron as a villain, but that may be just me: I can understand people considering the former a bit underdeveloped, but I think he got enough screentime to paint his character well enough Also, regardless of what you think of the MCU version of Hank Pym, Michael Douglas' performance is incredible

Hitman: Agent 47: 6/10 it was goofy as all hell, took itself too seriously, and didn't really deserve to be called a hitman movie, but I had a good time with. The action was pretty fast paced and over-the-top and the dialogue was corny enough to giggle at, so it wasn't as much of a snoozefest as the first movie
