Watching the rugsby. At halftime England and Fiji are tied at 14 in the "2012 Glasgow Sevens," whatever that means. Maybe P will come in and explain this to me.

After doing a little research, I'm assuming this is a replay.

It's a solid 7 movie that somehow got given a 9.8. Can't hate it but can't comprehend the 9.8.

Probably somewhere in the mid 8s for me, personally.

I watched a bunch of Parks and Rec a few weeks ago. As much as I wanted to hate it, it grew on me a ton. Pretty fucking funny at times. Pohler is still annoying though...

Midnight in Paris = surprisingly really decent, and I don't like Wilson at all.

Linklater

Watched it the other night, liked it even more than Sunrise.

Cool, I think I have Sunset on DVD somewhere, never got around to it....

Timone
09-21-2012, 07:23 PM
Both are great. Sunrise lost me for a few minutes, but Sunset kept me interested throughout.

What to watch tonight, you guys? I'm going to go a different route. Maybe something dumb/funny. Ha!

Might watch The Conversation. So solid.

Vinny
09-21-2012, 08:09 PM
Don't use one, just usually try to chase directors. Cronenberg and Carpenter are usually pretty amusing. How about Big Trouble In Little China?? Or They Live?

Or History of Violence.

If you're slurping from online, get the Region 2 DVD rip with the John Carpenter/Roddy Piper commentary -- good stuff! For some reason they haven't released that in the U.S. yet. Fortunately, I have a region-free player that does the right thing with PAL and NTSC crap.

Keanu 2.0

Pharaoh
09-29-2012, 07:11 AM
Shia LaBoof must have blown Speilberg to get all those gigs - dude was fucking useless in every flick he was in except maybe Disturbia

I think Keanu is a better option - and we all know how great his acting is/was

Vinny

Yeah Glan, Keanu has several classic roles. Stop being a dick.

Pharaoh

Hearts of Fire is a personal fav :)

Animal Kingdom.... never seen it

Not really a Guy Pearce fan to be honest. Memento is his finest hour!

The Time Machine isn't great, and that prison movie in space thing I haven't seen yet but a lot of reviews say it's SHIT!

LA Confidential is pretty damn good, though it's not all because of Guy Pearce. Funny thing about that flick - Ruseel Crowe, Simon Baker (Denny) and Guy Pearce all started in Oz!

Anywa, no I haven't seen Animal Kingdom

Timone
10-06-2012, 11:36 AM
LA Confidential IS fucking awesome, no doubt. Top ten.

I put off watching Collateral because I'm not a Cruise guy, but it was damn good. He wasn't too shabby, but I get the feeling that anybody could have filled his shoes in that role. Might be in the minority.

Pharaoh
10-19-2012, 03:29 AM
I agree - Lots of actors could have filled that role and done it well.

IMO Cruise and all that equals actually hurt the flick cause I couldn't completely believe in him as THAT guy

If it was Guy Pearce... I think he'd have done a better job :)

50 Cent can surround himself with good actors like Robert De Niro and Dana Delany, and he'll still be a shitty actor.

Watching season 7 of Weeds on Netflix... Mary-Louise Parker/Nancy Botwin reminds me of this chick I worked with 20 years ago who I had it bad for. She gave off this hot "all this and brains too -- I'll hurt you boy" kinda vibe. I got her top and bra off her in Vegas while she was drunk, but we never went all the way because she was drunk and some fucked up moral code kicked me at the wrong moment.

DUDE!

Mary Lousie-Parker = YES PLEASE!

Just something about her that makes me wanna do unspeakable things to her until I die from lack of fluids

Weeds is another show I might have to get into... worst case scenario I get to watch her more often :)

As for a History of Violence... kinda just there IMO. Been a long while since I've watched it to be honest. It was reasonable.

I watched Prometheus the other day... what a fucking waste of my time! Could have been so much better but no attention to detail at all it seems.... and not from an Alien fanboy POV either.

First example: the guy and chick responsible for finding the cave painting in Scotland... that scene where they explain to the other peeps on the mission why it's important, why they're all on the mission... WTF is that scene? Just a throw away, not a lot happens... IMO that scene should have been longer, starting with them explaining where each symbol was found... it provides historic reference if you mention the greatest civilaisations known to man and say "this symbol was found at [insert well known sacred site here]"

Then after the guy and chick tell all these people about our "Creators" 2 dudes say some shit and that's it! There are another 6 or 7 people in the room but it appears everyone is cool - no one has questions or anything! WTF? You just got hired to go to the edge of space, slept for 2 years and woke up to be told you're going to meet your "creators" and you say... nothing? WTF?

2nd example = when they arrive at the planet... they enter the atmosphere, fly over a little bit (takes less than 60 seconds of screen time if memory serves) and BOOM! FOUND IT! We're so fucking lucky! We have journeyed to the edge of space, slept for 2 years and BOOM! As we descend onto the planet's surface we found what we needed to find STRAIGHT AWAY! WOW!

FUCK OFF!

It would have been far more interesting if as they descend to the surface you get a huge forest or ocean... with what appears to be a road or a bridge .... that leads to a fucking HUGE city/pyramid/structure of some sort that we'd recognise from an ancient civilisation... and then they could have landed and driven around this massive stone city/structure... followed the single road/bridge out to the hollow fucking thing they needed to find!

2 small things almost straight away in the flick that could have been changed to add some layers/depth to the story, to highlight what a fucking monumental mission this was...

Instead we got a room full of people just going "Yep, going to meet our makers" and "wow, we're really lucky we found it straight away" kind of thing. On screen it's not treated as a BIG DEAL for them the people to BE on the mission and it's not treated as a BIG DEAL when they find the structure because it happened straight away.

IF it's not a big deal to the fucking people on screen WHY WOULD I CARE?

Fucking movie lost me straight away and did nothing to get me back... and even when the "action" ramped up it never got out of 2nd gear IMO... the whole fucking flick was paint by numbers or just a mess... what was up with the bit where Charlize Theron says "meet me in my quarters in 10 minutes" to the Captain? She's gonna fuck the captain to prove she's not a robot? Really? I'm supposed to buy that? I'm supposed to believe that this character who is in command of the entire fucking mission is going to have sex with a guy to prove she's not a robot?

How the fuck did she end up in command of the entire mission if she can't brush off that kind of shit? Surely it's generally accepted that woman in positions of power had to deal with all kinds of shit in order to get there... obviously the writer's/filmakers didn't think I could believe her saying "Shut your mouth and do your job - or I'll leave you on this God-forsaken planet"

Fuck Prometheus as a movie... and I seriously doubt we get a sequel where the chik who helped discover the cave painting in Scotland lands on the "Creator's" home planet and begins to ask "WHY!"

Haven't seen Primal Fear, should I add it to the list?

Watched Pat Garret and Billy the Kid yesterday. Found it boring. Like Peckinpah usually too. Should've just watched the Wild Bunch again instead.

currently watching Aussie flick "Tomorrow When the War Began"

I avoid Oz movies like the Pistons avoid victories :)

Usually the acting is shit, the direction is shit, the writing is terrible.. everything but the scenery is craptacular

But not this flick!

Am actually very, very surprised in just how good it is. Unfortunately due to the Australian Flim Industry being what it is the most successful Oz movie of 2010 has yet to get a sequel... despite it ending in such a way that you expect one to be locked in.

Stargate - who woulda thought it would spawn so much TV?

Dark City - brilliant

Equilibrium - brilliant

The 13th Floor - under-rated, interesting concept

In Time - interesting concept and Timberlake doesn't suck!

Shutter Island - love it

Inception - love it

One Hour Photo - Robin Williams is NOT funny!

The Bourne Legacy... not bad and all but limited action which was a disappointment.

I realise they want to flesh out the story, set up a sequel or 2 and explain how deep the rabbit hole goes - but surely I didn't need to have that point rammed home every other second.

The backstory with Edward Norton and whatshisname could have been "more"... and they blew it by not having a confrontation of some sort between the 2.

IMO they were so busy setting up the new trilogy that they missed out on having more action. If you go back and watch The Bourne Identity you can see how it was done better the first time. I'm all for them continuing the series. If the story is good enough I'll forgive most mist-steps... but with limited action and a whole load of plot it felt like they didn't get the balance right

And IMO the Bourne series with Matt Damon did a hell of a job finding that balance between exposition and action.... it made them re-invent James Bond FFS!
