Might be a bit biast because I absolutely adore Val Kilmer :heart: :oops: but I quite like this one though it is a little gross in parts it is a good adventure movie that will keep you on the edge of your seats.


I do have this on VHS, need to replace it with a DVD at some point, sure there will be alot more fun stuff on the DVD :lol:.

I'm looking forward to seeing that Clint Eastwood film unlike the dribbel I saw Wednesday. That moronic movie almost put me off going to the cinema ever again. Some people seem to think Keanu Reeves + his whispering = finished movie. :nuts:

Twilight.

I still very much prefer the book. The film was ok once I'd got into it and tried to push the thought of everything in the book to the back of my mind but I'm really hoping that the next one will be much better.

Hypnobabe 25 Dec 2008 16:29

The end of the original Scrooge with Alastair Sim, the beginning of Love Actually, (went well with the end that I saw a few days before) Death Race (Richard brought it home from Hong Kong) and we're currently watching Shark Tale...

Yes, before you say anything I know it's not a film, but Micheal McIntyre Live And Laughing... Filmed at the Hammersmith Apollo, and very funny it was too...

MeatGrl1 28 Dec 2008 11:48


Really enjoyed it but then again it's right up my street, I do actually like Jerry Lee Lewis' music and found this interesting though only critisizam... Couldn't they of found a better look-alike for Elvis :shock: :lol: !! This showed Jerry starting out right up to the point where he married his 13-year-old cousin, and the affect it had on his career.

hi Em ! ... this is one of my fave films !! .. Dennis Quaid is so great... so cocky and full of attitude !! .. love it ... i'm a fan of JLL's music myself ... the guy surely was no angel with his lifestyle but MAN could he play a piano !! ... still can matter-of-fact !!

last film for me... The Cell ...

t ... :D

MeatGrl1 28 Dec 2008 13:55

I know Tink,
his guitar playing is absolutely mind blowing :cool:.
Never recognised him as Dennis Quaid and had an inkling it was Winona Ryder and had to look in the TV book to confirm it, she is a great actress too and no I'm not just saying that because she dated Johnny Depp, I genuinly mean it, just look at Mermaids, Heathers and Bram Stoker's Dracular to understand why I like her :cool:.

Yeah I thought it was good, not quite the action packed film it seemed to be, but was still good...i'm sure there's a moral about the way we treat the world but it's hard to find it when hollywood spends so much money on...well just about everything.

good film, worth seeing.

AndrewG 30 Dec 2008 11:21

I was extremely disappointed with The Day the Earth stood still. :-(
Problem with me is if I don't like something then I don't like it with a passion!

Saw "Yes Man". Funny as hell and perfect role for Jim Carey which somehow in my opinion sums up his wacky side but also serious heartfelt roles (Truman show / Eternal Sunshine). Definitely a good comedy and worth seeing.

Have you read the book it was based on? By Danny Wallace? Absolutely hilarious, and I have a nasty feeling that having read it first is going to spoile the film for me....

MeatGrl1 02 Jan 2009 13:28

Did not see it all but the latter wanted to watch The Fly last night, it got to the part where he was changing :barf: and I was too grossed out so took the opportunity to get ready for bed !!!

i agree... it is gross Em... but what bothers me more about the remake is... in the original i had compassion for all involved in the situation... i could bond with the characters... and the ending !! ... he who has heard can never get that voice out their head... :shock: ... lol ... but the re-make... Jeff Goldblum was just so fidgety and jittering ... and then so full of himself... and i just couldn't bond ... imo... it was turned into a special effects presentation ...

have you ever seen the original Em ?

t ... :D ...

ooops... and i think it was Speed ... the last film i watched ...

SamCat 02 Jan 2009 20:07

I had no trouble bonding with Jeff Goldblum in any of his films lol!!

The Flying Mouse 02 Jan 2009 22:13

:twisted: Both The Fly and the "remake" are great films with very interesting performances.

I don't count the Goldblum movie as a remake as the events are clearly far removed from the story of the original.

I rather find the two movies to be different variations on a common theme.


Last movie I watched was Little Shop Of Horrors.
My mum and dad rented it from the video shop (remember them huh?) when I was a kid, and I wasn't impressed at all.Hey, at that age, music is girl stuff that no self respecting boy wants anything to do with.When your aim is to grow up to be a Star Wars baddie like Darth Vader, cissy sfuff is deffinatly OUT.
I don't think I got past the song Skid Row.
The movie said "Horrors" in the title, and I didn't get "Horrors", people sang at me.In my infant mind, the movie lied.

So you can see why that, although i've shelved plans of being the dominant Sith influence in the universe (or have I? :bleh: ) and now quite enjoy the musicals (I must have got older, or more cissy like :shock: ) i've avoided Little Shop Of Horrors because of the air of disapointment that has been attatched to it.


I'm glad to say I enjoyed it, a lot.
Some cracking music, and my only real complaint was Audrey's voice while singing Suddenly Seymore.
I know she had a daft talking voice, but that could have been shelved a little bit when singing a big number.
What works for comedy effect during diolouge is just annoying during what could be a good musical scene.
It sounded to me like a good singer was held back from doing putting all her skill into making the song sound like it's supposed to sound.
'Tis a shame :shrug:

Skid Row is a favorite at the moment 8)

I have to agree ... I think he's rather attractive ... as is Sean Bean and Bruce Willis and I'll usually watch any film if any of them are in it!:D

Mmm Bruce Willis for me especially in a vest lol!!

good movie.

it says a lot that after all the monsters and gore scenes the most disturbing and scary thing in this film was the ending.

:twisted: Which funny enough didn't happen in the book :shock:

In the book, the story is told from the viewpoint of David Drayton (spelling?) who has written down all that has happened so far.
The story ends at an old diner where the survivors have taken a short stop to rest and load up on supplies, and where Drayton writes his intention to leave the munuscript on the diner's counter.
It's up to the reader to imagine what the eventual outcome of the story is.

I have a feeling that King himself will approve of the ending the movie makers have made :up:

RadioMaster 08 Jan 2009 22:04

infact King has approved the new ending, and said he wished it was him who came up with it. lol

There's quite an interesting discussion going on on IMDB about the ending. Looks like 98% of the viewers hated this ending.

Funnily Dimension Films offered the director to nearly double his budget for the movie (from $18m to $30m) if he just scrapped that ending and used the novella version.
