Rate The Last Movie You Watched - April V3 - no tv shows - General

[QUOTE=Corndog Ninja;46425639]We were talking about 90s-era Microsoft and Apple in class the other day (we watched some of that Steve Jobs lost interview) and that movie came highly recommended. I saw a few clips and it looks to have an interesting style.[/QUOTE] It has historical inconsistencies, but I don't really care for this sort of thing. It has several great scenes because they were able to dramatize it. One of the last scenes with the Big Brother commercial really shines.

[QUOTE=AK'z;46425590]Quantum of Wallace was actually not that bad. You people need to rewatch things like [B]"For Your Eyes Only"[/B] and "Die Another Day" to know what dreadful really is. :)[/QUOTE] Fixed. Yeah, A View to a Kill wasn't great but For Your Eyes only was much much worse. [editline]6th November 2014[/editline] Even the brief appearance of Charles Dance as a henchman couldn't save it.

damn nigga, i just seen snow piecer. pretty engaging to say the least, 8/10

[QUOTE=Rusty100;46423520]interstellar. weird. it had me up until a certain point, and then sort of jumped the shark. [sp]eventually matthew mcconaughey accidents himself into the 5th dimension and discovers he was the driving force of their initial discoveries by poking books off his daughters book shelf. trapped in the 5th dimension. built by future humans, for this purpose. so he can save humans. who would not be alive to build this 5th dimension accessible by wormhole because he would have failed his mission without it. so that doesn't make sense. and then afterward once he delivers his message to his daughter the 5th dimension world closes (???) and he's back floating in space and actually gets rescued. like wtf. for reallies? up until this point it was fucking great.[/sp] [sp]i really wish it had wrapped up less nonsensically without any impossible to suspend disbelief for made up future science and time travel.[/sp] disappointed. cuz it woulda been a real masterpiece without that stuff. [editline]7th November 2014[/editline] this is going to be a repeat of inception. people walking out of the cinema still on the hype being like 'wow that was so great i did NOT understand it so it MUST have been great and too complex for me! haha!' except this time it actually just doesn't make sense its just convenient space magic[/QUOTE] TO be fair, almost everything we learn about space through history starts out as space magic.

Interstellar 8.5 out of 10 I would of given it about a 9.5/10 at first but I thought about it a little and a lot of shit doesn't make sense or is too convenient. Great movie if you like Star Trek and play KSP non stop like me

Interstellar It was great, but I'm not sure whether it was "Saviour of the cinema 10 out of 10" great. What I can tell you for sure, it was one of the most original sci-fi film in decades, with really well build-up world. It was refreshing to see something more than just aliens and spaceships thrown hundred years into the future without any reason (like Star Trek, or other space sci-fi).

indiana jones 4 was once in the top 250.

[QUOTE=Corndog Ninja;46434372][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/tlxfYzQ.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] Three days ago it had a score around 9.7, like pretty much every other Nolan's film. Give it some time. But I've got a feeling that because of the mixed reactions from the very beginning, Interstellar might stand the test of time well, unlike Inception, TDKR or even TDK.

Any film that isn't awful tends to sit around the high 8's when it comes out.they do rarely break 9 but it's not even close to accurate for at least w good week or two.

the only film I'm gonna compare Interstellar to is Contact and if it doesn't hit those margins, I'm afraid Mr Nolan will have started his nice descent into "bleh hollywood mode" with nice sharpness, lighting and colours. This is his last chance for me I'm afraid, I'll give it a shot.

Interstellar 9/10 This movie resonated so well with me, it was everything I wanted from the movie and more. Just like Prestige and Inception, after the movie on my way home I kinda just phased out and thought over the magnificence of it.

The Room. If I had to use a single word to describe it, it would be 'astounding'. Astounding how someone can have such a bizarrely unintelligible accent and speech pattern. Astounding how a movie can have almost every single member of its cast completely phone in their performance (and how the only people giving decent performances are the ones who make sense, weirdly). Most importantly, astounding how a movie can be such a catastrophically bad failure and at the same time be so hilarious. As a movie, it's a 1/10 for sure. Plot threads go nowhere, dialogue seems to come straight out of the Twilight Zone and elementary school plays have better acting. As entertainment, it's a solid 8/10. Wiseau's accent is a blast to decipher at times, it's nonsensical in all the right ways, it's an amazing example of unintentional comedy. The Producers - 8/10 Straight from unintentional comedy, we jump to intentional hilarity. The entirety of Springtime for Hitler was nothing short of an assault, it's simply gutbustingly hilarious. Wilder and Mostel sell the characters, especially when they find out SfH is such an amazing success.

If you thought The Room was "astounding", you should definitely read "The Disaster Artist" by Greg Sestero (Mark). It is an unbelievably amazing look at the making of the movie as well as a fascinating look into the mind of Tommy Wiseau.

I read the disaster artist in one day, picked it up and couldn't put it down. Great read

Interstellar 5/5 Okay the [sp]5th dimension stuff[/sp] was a little hokey and far fetched, but on an emotional level, I can reconcile it. Amazing movie. And it was breathtaking in IMAX.

I have a hard time rating Interstellar, maybe it's just the hype after watching it in IMAX. 8.5 feels a little low considering how some moments have a large emotional impact, while high grades like 9.2 on IMBD or 10/10 is a little too much. How ever the OST is a 9/10, hans zimmer was original this time (despite there still being EXTRA LARGE BASS VIBRATIONS in space and at some parts) , and it paid off.

Fracture The Brave One both 8/10 both were suprisingly good to me given I had never heard of either of them till they came on HBO.

Interstellar 6/10 Slow movie and lots of scientific jargon that makes no sense to me

started watching The Knick... gosh it's like a medieval version of House. Great stuff and really well put together. Rare you get a director doing an entire series.

Bad Teacher 7/10 Don't watch this at home... especially if your family's around.

Interstellar 6/10 Hokey bullshit, no tension, awful dialog, good ideas wasted in between long stretches of fuck all Would rather watch Danny Boyles Sunshine

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;46439310]i liked the pacing, actually. it was slow but it didnt feel like it was dragging on until the last scenes. i was literally literally starving and had a severe headache though, so that mightve influenced it re: scientific jargon you're lucky. they had shittons of incorrect science stuff. lots of things wouldnt work at all. also worth mentioning is the soundtrack. seriously fucking amazing, kudos to zimmer.[/QUOTE] I wouldn't say they was a shitton of incorrect science in Interstellar ([sp]the time dilation on the first planet is pretty unrealistic, to be fair; I doubt it's very likely that a planet would exist that deep in the gravity well of a blackhole, but for the most part it seemed fairly good[/sp]). There was a lot that skirted the very boundary of scientific theory, but everything that happened seemed to fall within the boundary of what is at the very least theoretically possible, perhaps with the exception of [sp]the blackhole construct, however... Clarke's third law[/sp]. There was a gravitational slingshot that occurred that I was dubious about, but I'm not sure what everything in the system was orbiting so I can't say if it was right or wrong with absolutely certainty.

I'm a mere layman so the science totally went over my head. Which might explain why I was rather lost throughout the movie on how some of the stuff worked

i didnt get that bit at all either

I love how people on the internet are like "but this is not how black holes, physics or xyz works, obviously", while this film was not only co-produced by, but also heavily consulted with a guy that's considered an expert in this vague field of physics about gravity, black holes and interstellar travel. I'd trust Kip Thorne on this rather than all-knowing internet commenters.

you dont know that there ISNT a [sp]bookshelf[/sp] at the centre of a black hole

[B]Interstellar[/B] It was honestly unique and I've never seen the concept before and it definitely intrigued me. The dialogue was good overall imo but it was spotty in a few places. I did feel like they could've done a better job keeping up with the time pacing because its like from one scene/line to another they could immediately skip 12 minutes, or hours, or years. All the science stuff was interesting but it felt a little jargonic to me at times, and like they just had to keep making shit up, but since its a sci-fi movie I tried to just go with it. The movie did get a little confusing to me near the end with all the solve gravity stuff. I actually did like the black hole shit, but I didn't care for how [sp]He just magically appears from the singularity to the orbit around Saturn and was minutes within dying but was picked up. He should've died inside the black hole imo. If you're going to say "oh he had to go back since he promised", well he already did, through the black hole and talking to Murphy with the clock[/sp]. The visuals were very good, and lets not even get started on how fucking incredible the score throughout the movie were. Overall I give it an 8/10 [editline]8th November 2014[/editline] [sp]The planets they visited in the movie were also very interesting. I still remember me whispering "holy shit" when they were on the ocean planet and we see this miles-high tidal wave coming towards that literally knocks a few clouds on its way[/sp]

The more famous he got, the more his [sp]endings has become[/sp] His only films that didn't [sp]end with hopeful and happy ending[/sp] were Following and Memento. I don't blame his, it's his catch. And to me, seeing [sp]O'Neill cylinder and another interaction with TARS was rewarding on its own[/sp]
