You might wanna check out a series called Deadbeat.
I think it's pretty good.

"That guy from Tucker & Dale VS Evil plays a lazy slacker, and a medium for hire, who attempts to solve various ghosts' unresolved issues, so that they can move on to a final resting place, occasionally with the help of his best friend and drug dealer, Roofie."

Watch the whole thing. The conclusion is very funny.

Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005)

It's official; I'm no longer a Star Wars virgin. I have finally watched all six films in preparation for The Force Awakens which I eagerly await with my pre-ordered tickets. Revenge of the Sith is undoubtedly my favorite of the prequels and my second favorite overall, behind The Empire Strikes Back; I was surprised by how much they stepped up their game and ended the trilogy in a darker, more emotional way. In Revenge of the Sith, the Jedi Knights are spread out all over the galaxy leading a massive clone army against the Separatists. Obi-Wan Kenobi is sent to kill the leader of the Separatist Army, General Grievous. Meanwhile, Anakin Skywalker becomes closer to Chancellor Palpatine who is secretly a Sith Lord and eventually leads Anakin to yield to the dark side of the Force and become Darth Vader. Although Anakin's transition to the dark side was only foreshadowed in Attack of the Clones, it is a major theme in this movie and gives the film much more dramatic depth to explore. Watching his mind wawrp into that of an eventual Sith Lord is almost tragic in context with the rest of the trilogy, and it makes Episode III the most emotionally driven prequel. Hayden Christensen's acting is still questionable as ever, which I blame on poor writing. He has great facial expressions and body language, but the material he has to work with is dreadful at times. Even then, Revenge of the Sith is still a wholly satisfying and terrific ending to the prequel trilogy. From its memorable opening action sequence to the final scene showing Darth Vader's construction, Revenge of the Sith is a thrilling and impressive conclusion to the trilogy.

9/10

Watch Red Letter Media's Plinkett reviews now and see how the movies fall apart. I have little use for Revenge of the Sith and it's just as bad as the rest of the prequel movies.

I would rank them probably in order of release for the original trilogy. I don't count the prequels at all. I can't watch any of them as Star Wars movies. Just as action bits. People have tried to cobble together edited versions of the prequels. But anyway you cut it they are still bad Star Wars movies that ignore things that happened in the original trilogy movies.

Note: annoying boys as main character(s) in horror movies should be forbidden.
Why can't they use quiet geeky kids wearing bowties and sweatervests instead of these brats.

It had some really cool scenes but too comedic for me. I like clown horror to be brutal and violent. Creepy aswell.

The storyline done before. Alittle dull leading up to the end, usual fare for Hollywood movies but Benico was amazing and owned this movie. : )

Leaked screener is online (edit: Creed and The Hateful Eight too).
I'm gonna wait for the blu-ray version.
When it comes to recent movies I always prefer to watch them in high resolution.

Just saw it.
First half was pretty good then it got a bit boring.
Too bad they didn't turn this into an action movie.

I keep hoping someone is able to help him. He's such a nice guy, and I've always enjoyed his acting.

This started off iffy for me. I'm not a huge Tarantino fan. Some scenes were stupid, some were amazing..then it all came together and I really liked this...it's all about Samuel...he was fantastic! Not much screen time for Michael Madsen but he always makes my heart flutter. ::love::

He's got a lot of demons it would appear. That's right, Hammer, you met him. Didn't you put a pic up once of you and him together?

cheebacheeba 12-20-2015 04:14 PM

Star Wars 7.
Well, I feel like it evoked what I felt when watching the originals quite a bit better than any of the prequels managed to.
The storyline was decent, I was a little worried about the "new" bad guys just coming across as pointless etc but they actually made it work.
I quite hated the "villain" and their motivations though...we'll see...he will make you hate him.
The new generation of characters, surprisingly, I didn't mind at all.
Found the girl a touch wooden not too much though, and the guys did pretty well.

Look all in all it's not like it was a 4 or 5, but it was maybe between 4 and 6 someplace for me. Which is more that expected.

JJA has done well. I'd give it 7.5/10.
Feels like to me, Star Wars is back.

For those that have seen it, read the invisible bit under here...spoilery

I think Kylo Ren was actually a rebellion plant into the new order.
Yeah, he's done terrible things...but that could just be becoming swayed towards the dark, or also to sell his cover to the higher ups.
He displayed the ability to "read minds" or extract information, so it's not all that far fetched that he may have been able to telepathically communicate as well.
I think that scene with Solo where he at first told him
"I know what I need to do but I don't know if I'm strong enough, will you help me?" was completely genuine.
I think he either spoke into Solos mind, or perhaps he just "knew" what he was asking him to do.
People in the new order did seem to have their doubts about him right?
So he had to do something "big", and not just the ordered killing of randoms, something that will say "yep, he's the guy".
There was not much surprise, definitely no anger in Solos last moments...I mean I know, it's his son...but still.
Yes, Kylo attacks the girl too...but he is a pretty conflicted individual, and is still trying to prove himself to the higher ups...that and he did have issues with Solo taking her under his wing, I dare say some of that rage would have been true. Not to mention, she "knew" he was scared. She was potentially a threat to his cover if this was the case.
Then what happened at the end?
"It's time to take his training to the next level".
Fits in quite well with what the rebellion would want him to do...right?
That's my theory anyways.
They've Snaped him.

Slightly better than average take on the Chupacabra.
Plenty of bad horror movie clichés but it still has its moments.

Apartment 143

Another Blair Witch filming style. Except this was super fucking grainy. Despite that it wasn't horrible. Bit of murder mystery thrown in there because why the fuck not, it's not like a haunting is interesting enough on its own.

Not bad for serious space movie that isn't horror.

One annoyance SPOILER:
"The fact that people were celebrating outside like it was New Year's Eve during the rescue mission. Hard to believe that even in this day and age that many people would assemble for an astronaut or space related stuff."

I thought the same thing about Kylo Ren, because of those same reasons. Plus, the jedi students might be hiding, not murdered. But maybe Luke isn't in on Ren's plan.

If you can get past the cheesy acting, the zombies are really fuckin cool!! It's the only reason why I gave it a higher grade.

This movie includes almost every cliché that you can think of!! I actually watched it all the way to the end though cause I liked the 'kill' shots.
