rewatched Avatar last night...fascinating

Ocean´s Eleven followed by The Search For John Gissing

Halloween

The quality of the DVD was more horror than the movie.

John Carpenter or Rob Zombie?

Carpenter, the original movie from 1978.

Rewatched :heart: This Is It with MJ the other night... Cried again :( :heart:

While I'm not a fan of Zombie's the-gorier-the-better approach at halloween, and the fact that he tries to give Mike Myers a backstory, you gotta appreciate that he tries to make the movie his own. Too many of the recent horror remakes have been 1:1 copies of the originals with updated effects and less appeal. The Zombie Halloween isnt my taste, but I appreciate the effort.

and semi-on topic

Just rewatched the original Nightmare on Elm Street.

While you gotta admit it is a low budget movie with dogdy acting (better effects and acting in the remake), this one leaves you scared, not sickened or disturbed.

Videodrome

Interesting horror thriller by David Cronenberg, with James Woods and Debbie "Blondie" Harry.

Read the short story, RJ, it's better....

Deja Vu on Saturday night, followed by the end of Young Guns II on Sunday, and most of 3:10 to Yuma....

i think i've seen that before...

Happy Tuesday meatie peeps ...
 

40 year old virgin...very funny film

Better Off Dead. I used to really love the film when I was about 18 but I hadn't watched it for ages until the other night.

The Labyrinth...just love that film

Liberty Stands Still

Interesting plot but weak script. Disappointing.

Happy Friday meatie peeps !
 

The Big Lebowski

Dont really know what all the fuss was about :shrug:

yeah neither do i...its one of those films where you have to say you like otherwise you'll feel uncool. the commitments was a bit like that, great soundtrack average film.

Lebowski is actually in the IMDB Top 250...

Ironman 2, Crazy Love & Did you hear about the morgans

Avatar on Blu Ray. Was good, but not up to the hype imho. Will watch it again at some point, just to make sure ;)

Silence of the Lambs

brilliant

Yes, is an awesome film. The original Manhunter comes close, but the latest Lector films are just pants. Especially young Lector. Yuk.

3D in the cinema was awesome!!!

Yeah, thought it probably was all about the 3D. Think it's being re-released later this year (trying to get to $3billion I expect!) so will have to catch it then.

i'll admit to being mildly impressed with the panasonic 3D tv... (but the samsungs suck big time)

I can't do 3D movies, i only see 3D films in muted colours with no 3D effect, also gives me a migraine. Odd i know, but whats new, i have Avatar and have yet to see it, cos it disappeared to me dads, me bros, to another bro. I finally have it back in my possession ! Gonna watch it tomorrow, i hope that it lives up to the hype.
Last film i watched was Gran Torino, a superb film, Clint Eastwood in a great role, and outstanding as the director of this film.

I saw Avatar in 2D and it was an ok film dressed up in fancy effects.

Last film would be Iron Man 1. Ok, but I think 2 was probably better.

Yea i thought Iron Man 1 was canny, glad that 2 is better, i have yet to see 2. I do like Robert Downey Jnr, very good actor and nice eye candy;)

It´s complicated
Brilliant movie! Definitely one of my all time faves

Iron man 2

Die Hard 3

Sherlock Holmes - surprisingly good.

Finally watched Avatar ! I was not disappointed, a film that lived up to the hype ! Excellent CGI, liked the storyline and am a sucker for a happy ending ! Next to watch is District 9.

Better than Die Hard 4

I thought 3 and 4 were about level, fantastic.

watched Die Hard 4, wasnt bad, still prefer 3 though. I think the dialogue between Bruce Willis and Sam Jackson is what makes this my fav of the series.

and (I'm kinda embarrased to admit) I just watched "Death Race".
Incredibly stupid, incredibly bad. That's the kind of movies my parents used to warn me about.

BUT I thoroughly enjoyed it...

4 was a good generic actioner, but it was no Die Hard film. I love 1 and 3 for the dialogue and general intelligence behind them, and 2 and 4 for the big dumb special effects :lol:

Shrek: The Final Chapter.

~ Donkey makes that movie so worthwhile.

Gotta say though, it became a little far fetched when Bruce Willis jumped off the destroyed truck, onto the exploding jet, off again onto the destroyed motorway just to find himself in the middle of an explosion lol

Ok Avatar is amazing one of the best movie's I've ever seen and Iron Man 1 was a shit load better than the 2nd imo. Oh The Lovely Bones was the last movie I've seen and is really good.

Disrrict 9 is by far the best alien movie I've seen.

I totally agree!! :yep:

JD... Yum yum...

My last movie was The River Wild, with Meryl Streep, the little kid from Jurassic Park, David Strathairn, John C Reilly and Kevin Bacon...

What? Surely not. Happens to policemen here all the time, I'm sure ;)

Wes Craven's New Nightmare


very clever, definitely more than *just* a sequel to Nightmare on Elm Street

Happy Wednesday meatie peeps ...
 

:twisted: Either From Hell is a very long movie, or Still From Hell is the name of the sequel :p :lol:

Contact

Champion, i look forward to watching it, hopefully this weekend.
I am waiting for Daybreakers on dvd, i ordered months ago.
It comes out at the end of this month. I saw it at the pics, loved it, great alternate story on Vampires. Great acting and plenty of action as well.

This one's even better ...

Yes, I realise I'm going to die now ... :-)

:lmao:

Sherlock Holmes was my latest, not as good at home as it was in the cinema, loses some of the visual impact on a smaller screen.

Obviously yours isn't big enough ... :lol:

half of American: The Bill Hicks story

Saw it in the cinema yesterday and then the projector messed up, they couldn't fix it but what I saw of it was really good

Stuck on You...with Matt Damon...funny film

The 51st State

Love that film, i am trying to catch up with the V series, then Supernatural. Thank God for Sky +.

Is that the one with Robert Englund?

No its the new one, thats on telly at the minute. I do remember watching V with Robert Englund in the 80s. It was my fave series can remember waiting every week for that ! This new series is canny and a very good effort, waiting to see how it pans out.

Happy Friday meatie peeps ...
 

Funny Games

I didn´t quite understod it.. :roll:

Yeah I'm watching that, think I may have a few too many good memories of the first series to fully appreciate this one lol

thats probably true lol

2001


I know this is supposed to be one of the greatest movies of all time...but I didnt get it, especially the last 30 mins

You're not the only one. I fell asleep while watching it.

Last movie I saw was the final episode of Columbo. I wonder why Columbo hasn't been promoted for more than 30 years.

:heart: Chicago :heart::cool:

paranormal activity

some pretty intense shit

Shallow Hal - Jack Black

Brilliant film and very funny

w
 

Dirty dancing and gost RIP patrick

Return Of The King (again!)

AWESOME!!! Can't wait for the extended Blu Rays.

District 9, very good, although the camera angles and moving about a lot did piss me off a bit. Liked the new take on an Alien film, with a very interesting storyline.

Happy Tuesday meatie peeps ...

Charlie Wilson's War

very clever. Didnt think it was possible to make a comedy about the political background of the russian-afghanistan war of the 80s, that's touching, intelligent and funny.

Citizen Jane

didnt expect a lot from this one. I was pleasantly surprised. Once again the Loaf played a part that couldve drifted off into a cliché quickly, yet he handled it very good. The second half of the movie was kind of a let down though, too predictable IMO.

Sherlock Holmes - was pleasantly surprised by this one, wasn't my choice but find myself looking forward to a sequel

Robin Hood,

it was good, ignore Crowe's accent, since everyone did when he was in Gladiator, it's a good film without being fantastic.

Good chemistry between Ms Blanchett and Mr Crowe.

:twisted: Me and Jo are on a Nightmare On Elm St marathon.

Watched New Nightmare Tuesday night, then we started on the original series last night with a double bill of 1 & 2.

3 & 4 on tonights schedule :up:

you romantic fools:lol:

:twisted: As Mr Englund would say...............

Just because it's a love story doesn't mean it can't have a decapitation or two :p :lol:

yeah i didnt like that film much, prob coz i didnt sleep for a week after it.

Pan's Labyrinth

pretty good, though it's one of those kinda movies you only watch once
