Casino Royale was awful, I'll probably catch QOS on tv some Christmas, no rush

~Helen~ 09 Nov 2008 01:25

it's so long since I last watched a movie (all the way through*) i couldn't even begin to guess what it might have been!

* I watched part of something with a couple of (guy) mates a few weeks back, no idea what it was, but essence of parts I saw seemed to be something along the lines of crazy guy gives girl lift in stunt car, kills her. then kills girl's friends who are in another car. then tries to kill another group of girls who get away. they get own back on guy. guy injured. one of girls shoots guy. lots of views of girls asses. clearly a bloke film. not great. and blood/gore bits nearly gave me nightmares! recommended only to people with strong appreciation for female rears and strong constitution re blood/gore stuff.

Sarge 09 Nov 2008 02:16

According to the description, it could be Death Proof by Quentin Tarantino. :twisted:

Just watched Absolutely Fabulous: The Last Shout. Hilarious! :lawl:

Betty 09 Nov 2008 04:12

High School Musical 3
Sex and the City - The Movie

teen and chick flick time that was lol

RadioMaster 09 Nov 2008 19:29

"Being John Malkovich" last night...probably the strangest thing I've ever seen. Quite good though...

Always wanted to get that one. Everyone says it's so great, but I have no idea why?
Any enlightenment for me?

Rockette 10 Nov 2008 05:22

Four Weddings and a Funeral - I needed something that didn't require brain power.

RadioMaster 10 Nov 2008 09:34

walk the line...very good

I have to say I didn't rate it much the first time I saw it... Love the music, (actually bought the soundtrack the other day) and the film itself has grown on me... It's a typical Tarantino, full of blood, guts, gore and lots of unnecessary violence, but then again, that's half the fun....

Hypnobabe 10 Nov 2008 14:07

As for me, last films I saw were X-Men 2 yesterday, and X-Men 3 this morning...

Not sure what to watch now... might go with Rockette's suggestion and watch 4 Weddings again.... that's if I can find it, amongst the enormous DVD collection...

mszee 10 Nov 2008 14:55

Bee Movie followed closely by Elizabeth: The Golden Age followed by Outsourced...movie day yesterday...

Whatever happened to Bond eh? I watched QOS on Wednesday and fair enough the action is fantastic but there are absolutely no gadgets and there is no humour. I thought that along with the good action were the 3 main ingredients of a Bond movie? Not some unbeatable Jackie Chan / Terminator style action figure anyway. :-(

There is no Q and Daniel Craig doesn't even have one liners in this movie (a la Roger Moore). There is actually very little dialogue and Craig doesn't mention "Bond, James Bond" once as far as I remember and where was the shaken vodka martini? Apparently in Casino Royale (which I have not watched yet) he says when he is offered exactly this drink: "Do I look like I give a damn?". That may be funny to a lot of people but to me it is sad that they resort to this. It's a bit like ripping the S off Superman's costume in my opinion. You have to live with it as it has been done like this but why?? No Moneypenny either.

Also why is the gun barrel scene at the end of QOS and not at the beginning?! To some these details may be forgettable but I think it is quite cheeky to make a movie and forget about those little details. Previous Bond films were much more a specific style, now it just blends into the background of all the movie garbage that gets released. Moreover a movie like QOS is not something I would want to see over and over again, which is exactly what I did with the older Bond movies (up till "Die another Day"). I don't like this new style at all, the little details are gone. :?

They could have continued with Brosnan for several more films. I really didn't see a problem with Goldeneye, Tomorrow Never Dies and Die another Day. All great movies (The world is not enough looked rushed and lacked a good story).

As far as I am concerned they may as well now get rid of the opening song / graphical introduction. Why not if you are going to forget everything else?
A shame.

Hypnobabe 17 Nov 2008 22:52

Hmmm.... let's see.... Sunday afternoon while cooking: School of Rock. Sunday night: The Bourne Identity. This morning while studying: The Queen, followed by Carrie. And now we're watching The Bourne Supremacy... Will probably follow it up with The Bourne Ultimatum tomorrow night....

mszee 17 Nov 2008 23:09

I actually saw a movie...it was Maid of Honor or something...it was better than expected

AndyK 18 Nov 2008 10:27

Watched M Night Shyamalan's latest offering The Happening last night. Not quite up to the standards of The Sixth Sense, but on a par with The Village and well worth a watch.

MeatGrl1 18 Nov 2008 13:52

The Fintstones

MissAsh 18 Nov 2008 21:50

Underworld: Evolution

Watched this last night, it's about the 3rd time I've seen it and I like it a lot. Very much my kind of film.

Shyamalan always puts certain elements in his films, you could almost make a Shyamalan film recipe book of all the things he includes in each film, which some might say makes for boring/samey films...this film is definitely worth watching but this time he's taken out just a couple of those elements and for me it didn't work so well :? Some jumpy bits and absolute comedy lines in it though!

Sarge 19 Nov 2008 21:48

No movie but some episodes of my favorite British sitcom Keeping Up Appearances. I just love the snobbish "Bucket woman". Patricia Routledge is hilarious. :lmao:

angelica 23 Nov 2008 01:21

Abbot and Costelloe The Mummy (I think it was called)
It had lots of Mummies in it anyway ... 2 different views I thought it was hillarious I love these movies ... the kids thought it was scary???

MeatGrl1 23 Nov 2008 04:05


I saw this at the cinema and thought it was really good, I didn't find this scary particuarly just a bit jumpy in parts, it's a really good film and the cast is great.

Wario 23 Nov 2008 04:18

King Kong (1933) then King Kong Escapes

You dont have to compare every animated film to Shrek you know!! Shrek is different to the rest just accept it lol!!

mszee 28 Nov 2008 06:07

It wasn't precisely a movie but you have seen this movie many times...when family gets together for a holiday and start biting each other asses off and since you're a hostess you feel like a deer caught in the headlights...it wasn't a very good movie...

Currently watching The Lake House :drool:

mszee 01 Dec 2008 05:16

Hot Fuzz...VERY funny...although even funnier was a fact that this movie was listed here on TV Guide as Action/Adventure...:roll:

Rockette 01 Dec 2008 14:18

A Beautiful Mind. For about the thirtieth time - just love it.

MeatGrl1 01 Dec 2008 14:34

A film with the lovely John Leguizamo :heart: in it, not seen it before and I can't remember the name, think it was Presinct 13 but I could be wrong, John sported long hair in this one :drool:, not really my cup of tea on the whole but it had John in it and I hadn't seen this one !!

mszee 01 Dec 2008 15:01

Yeah, I know I am behind...but it was Hellboy II...liked it...

Hypnobabe 01 Dec 2008 15:03

I liked that one too....

My last was 16 Blocks, and I'm currently re-watching (for about the tenth time) Elizabeth.

Rockette 01 Dec 2008 15:05

with Cate Blanchet? loved that one - and Elizabeth and the Golden Age.

Hypnobabe 01 Dec 2008 15:06

That's the next one on the list... seems appropriate, considering I saw the one about her mother yesterday....

Rockette 01 Dec 2008 15:08

I'm going to catch up on the Closing of the Ring when I haul off to bed shortly. Good not having hubby around this week. One great big movie fest.

mszee 01 Dec 2008 15:27

I liked all Elizabeth movies except for Golden Age one...

The one about current Queen is particularly good...

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull - Feckin brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As promised, I finally finished watching Closing the Ring, but I don't know how to explain it. I can't even place it into a particular genre - not strictly a chick flick, but maybe a drama with spiritual undertones.

It stars Christopher Plummer and Shirley MacLaine and traverses from 1943 to present day, from USA to Belfast, Ireland.

A good movie overall.

Last night's movie was, "The Killers" - 1947 original version - not surprised it has developed a cult following of sorts. Later, I hope to watch the 1964 version.

None...

RadioMaster 04 Dec 2008 00:03

and yet you liked that?

Rockette 04 Dec 2008 12:44

Easy Rider - love the way Jack Nicholson was elevated to higher than Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper in the 30th anniversary DVD.

Still, he was the one who actually played a *character* as opposed to Fonda and Hopper, who could have just as easily been playing themselves at that time.

Bloody waste of a good looking bike in the end.

"Ratatouille" (2007) on Disney Blu Ray.

Absolutely stunning film. :))

MeatGrl1 07 Dec 2008 03:50


Quote:

Inspired by actual events that occurred in 1920s-era Los Angeles, Clint Eastwood's "Changeling" tells the story of a woman driven to confront a corrupted LAPD after her abducted son is retrieved and she begins to suspect that the boy returned to her is not the same boy she gave birth to. The year was 1928, and the setting a working-class suburb of Los Angeles. As Christine (Angelina Jolie) said goodbye to her son, Walter, and departed for work, she never anticipated that this was the day her life would be forever changed. Upon returning home, Christine was distressed to discover that Walter was nowhere to be found. Over the course of the following months, the desperate mother would launch a search that would ultimately prove fruitless. Yet just when it seemed that all hope was lost, a nine-year-old boy claiming to be Christine's son seemed to appear out of thin air. Overcome with emotions and uncertain how to face the authorities or the press, Christine invites the child to stay in her home despite knowing without a doubt that he is not her son. As much as Christine would like to accept the fact that her son has been returned to her, she cannot accept the injustice being pushed upon her and continues to challenge the Prohibition-era Los Angeles police force at every turn. As a result, Christine is slandered by the powers that be, and painted as an unfit mother. In this town, a woman who challenges the system is putting her life on the line, and as the situation grows desperate, the only person willing to aid her in her search is benevolent local activist Reverend Briegleb (John Malkovich).
Taken from IMDB. Angelina Jolie and John Malkovich were brilliant, if you have a chance I urge you to go and see it.


mszee 07 Dec 2008 08:23

That was scary...

Hot Fuzz...very funny and I've learned something useful...there are 2 policemen in Paris and none in London! Party time!

Sarge 09 Dec 2008 22:00

Horribly censored German edition of Pelts. They deleted all the splatter scenes, yet the movie is "suitable only for persons of 18 years and over". :nuts: Let alone that someone who does not know the original will hardly get what the story is all about due to numerous missing scenes.

Fortunately, I own the U.S. DVD which is fun watching.
