I have never watched a Twilight movie and based on the trailer for the new movie there's wedding invitations, weddings, honeymoons and babies involved.
How very exciting.

lol the baby is a pretty funny situation
VAMPIRE BABY
it grows super fast and almost kills Bella and she has to drink blood to make it happy
and then Jacob falls in love with the baby
no lie
casino royale third viewing
10/10 best bond film ever.
it's really awesome how they took all the cheese out of "the bond film" and it felt more like a bond film than any other one made. vesper is my favorite bond girl, second to the one in live and let die and third to from russia with love. eva green especially in the movie with the way she does her makeup is extraordinarily close if not a model for my personal preference, at least physically concerning how a woman looks. dark hair dark eyes dark makeup, slim build perfect height ivory skin. the most important part though is this indescribable familiarity/normalcy or something about her face i can't really put my finger on. also she's french IRL and french chicks are the bomb.
[sp]and with liking her so much in the film comes a great grief over the ending. no man tears but it was really sad. it made me wonder if she would have stayed with james after the deal or left him. i guess i'd feel less sad if she would have left him. but still sad because even if it was all a ruse she still obviously loved him[/sp]
[QUOTE=tesher07;33306430]It was a decent movie but was somewhat trippy at different points. I'd also give that movie a 7/10.
I'd highly recommend 500 Days of Summer over it though, which I would give a 10/10.[/QUOTE]
I'm like the opposite of this.
I'd give Eternal sunshine a 9/10
and 500 day of summer a 7/10
It was an OK movie, but Jim Carrey was just phenomenal in that movie.

I just saw Kaboom. What a travesty. Sex scenes a good movie does not make. The whole plot felt like a rushed afterthought. The movie kept introducing characters for the main character to fuck, and they all come back at the end in a very lazy and thrown together way. Also dat ending man its like they just ran out of money.

I was laughing just watching the trailer. It looks so bad and I was just waiting for an Alien moment to occur, with the vampire baby bursting out of her chest.
I remember when the last one came out. Rottentomatoes put up as it's member review of the day a review from this woman who gave it 0 stars and just said "Boner-jam faggotry". I hope they find something similar for this one.
I remember watching Twilight with my sister a few years ago before we even knew what it was. Needless to say, we both thought it was absolutely terrible.
I gave up on Twilight after about 20 minutes. Just blue angst.
because people are stupid
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;33329870]People on my Facebook are saying that they would literally kill a couple of people to see Breaking Dawn.
Maybe we're all missing something. What is so great about these movies? The acting is terrible, the effects are terrible, the writing is among the worst I've ever seen in a mainstream movie...
I just don't get it. They should be laughing at how bad it is. Why is it so widely loved?[/QUOTE]
Most of the fans can relate to being a retarded bitch.
Blood Diamond (2006) 10/10
For the third or fourth time. I really can't find anything to complain about.
It delivers a message and always leaves me with lots of thoughts. It's not one of those movie that you watch and the forget about shortly after.
If you haven't seen it I recommend you watch it, I'm sure you won't regret it.
The Thin Red Line 8.5/10
very great selection of actors, alot of variety.
Inner dialouges were amazing, I especially liked how they went from person to person. [sp]This was done really well with Nick Nolte's character[/sp]
Very solid war movie, has its equal share of sadness and battles. Watch it if you haven't, it may be long (roughly 3 hours) but it's definitely worth a watch.
I also noticed that the less screen time John Cusack has in a movie, the better actor he is.
Original cut was five hours with over three hours of narration by Billy Bob Thornton, and appearances by Mickey Rourke, Bill Pullman, Martin Sheen and a lot of others; Adrien Brody was to carry the movie, a lotta shit.

Lord of War 8.5/10
Great movie. Probably Andrew Niccol's movie I like the most

For the second time and not from the beginning. However, it was enough to make me realize that the plot twist wasn't bad. I remember hating the movie because of it the first time I watched it.
i don't even consider it a plot twist. if you're at least half way perceptive it's really obvious from the beginning many things do not add up, etc.
i mean he's a marshal, obviously from the beginning a very tough one and he loses it over being surrounded by water on a boat. that meant something to me when i saw it in theatres the first time.
can you believe there are actually people out there who don't believe he's [sp]completely mad and that they think it really is a giant conspiracy against him?[/sp]
here's a few things besides the water part. [sp]he's assigned a new partner who seems to go out of his way to follow him where ever he goes. there are many scenes where there are heavily armed guards surrounding him and giving him odd looks. around the middle part the warden practically gives it away with his "we are both violent men and as violent as they come" speech.[/sp] yeah those are kinda Meh things to spot and there are many more things you can look out for i just can't remember right now cause my mind is more focused on my rewatch of lost (yay netflix instant!)
maybe it's because i've had experience about this and saw it around the time my second mind was blossoming but it was really easy to tell much before the finale of the movie. plus it's been done so many times before i don't think scorsese himself considers it to be a big twist if one at all, he's just to good to think that way about his movie.
the whole "i don't drink" thing coupled with various other things including how the head doctor guy treats him ([sp]if anyone has had experiences with doctors, especially psychologist types it's simple to spot he treats Leo more like a patient than a marshal[/sp]) all add up as well. it's all so very subtle but it's also right there in front of you.
sure they're all really small bits and by themselves seem quite irrelevant but they all add up. the kicker to that though is that all these little things adding up seems like one of the many forms of madness itself. i know i'm referencing my own experiences again but it's what i know. when i went through being whacked in the head, a few of the times when it happened there wasn't a giant definitive thing about my psychosis that made itself apparent. it was all a bunch of little things that added up that made me realize something was going on when in reality outside of my own perceptions wasn't. madness has many forms though. in my opinion the more subtle ones that itch at your brain like in shutter island and the ones i described where it's a bunch of little things adding up are the worst. more so than full out complete psychosis where any one manifestation of the entirety of the episode alone could convince you that something is going on when it isn't because it's so dire and there are multiple instances of said manifestations.
i dunno. maybe it's because many people haven't experienced it themselves or don't have much pity or whatever the right emotion is or a combo of all of the above but it's most certainly a very underrated movie in my opinion.
dicarprio and scorsese work well together.
he's a fuckin brilliant actor. he does obsession very well and i don't think i've ever seen him being unconvincing in any one part of his role be it emoting, tone or anything like that.
i mean look at basketball diaries. he was just a fuckin kid and it's a really well done performance.

Aviator, Departed, Shutter Island.
Hell yeah they work good together. He's the new De Niro for him.
[editline]19th November 2011[/editline]
watched [B]The Devil's Double[/B]
Liked it quite a bit.
7.5/10
The thing about this movie, is that one actor is playing two different people and interchanging within roles. Also capturing Saddam Hussein's son's personality and making it his own.
An unknown from this year but people should see it.

He sucked in Romeo + Juliet. He said every line like he had no idea what any of it meant like, "oh he's angry in this scene, so say every line like you're angry."

I liked it :<
But that was years ago. I should watch it again and see why everyone hates it.
Also about the Shutter Island "plot twist". Well yeah, I agree with you, It's not actually a plot twist. My point was that I didn't like the movie because of that scene in particular. Not anymore.

Watch it again, I saw it as a kid, after watching it as I matured it was a hunk of crap.
[QUOTE=AK'z;33342299]It was a terrible movie idea in the first place.[/QUOTE]
Same thing with modernizing any Shakespeare story, really.
Just watched the Groundhog Day and The Truman Show.
Is it wrong that I liked The Truman Show a little bit more?

I watched a film years ago that virtually had the same twist as Shutter Island. I don't know if Scorsese ripped off the idea, since this film isn't popular, and made it into a blockbuster movie. If i find the movie i'll let you know the title.

Insanely bizarre and disturbing, yet brilliant at the same time.
