they were fab....and with all the singing....ian is always fab....i just really didnt expect anything from this film....my sis dragged me to see it but the wolverine bit and the soldie "hand over your weapons off mass destruction" got a big laugh from the adults in the audience.....

Superman Returns

Holy moly was this movie a lot longer than it needed to be! They could have easily cut out an hour worth of crap that didn't need to be there. The film was alright, but nothing to get excited about. There's barely any action at all and when there is you already know Superman will save the day so there is zero suspense. I thought this was incredibly slow paced and like I said, way longer than it should have been. Kevin Spacey is fine as Lex Luthor and this Brandon Routh guy did alright as Superman but a couple good acting performances won't do much to improve a drawn out & boring script.

I enjoyed Superman Returns and didn't really notice how long it was till I left the cinema and looked at my watch.

Hahaha. I used to watch that show when I was young. I remember liking it back then but I haven't seen or heard anything about it in probably 15 years so I can imagine it's crap when compared to more recent shows.

And it reminded me of a joke...

Superman is flying over Metropolis one day. As he flies over the JLA building he notices Wonder Woman suntanning naked on the rooftop. Superman thinks to himself "Hey, I'm faster than a speeding bullet. I could fly down there, get myself a quickie and be gone before she even notices anything." Feeling confident about his plan, Superman swoops in, faster than a bullet. He does his deed and disappears back in to the sky, all in the blink of an eye. Wonder Woman sits upright and exclaims "What the fuck was that!?!?!" The Invisibile Man says "I don't know but all of a sudden, my asshole is killing me!"

it is an absolute testament to how much more 'sophisticated' TV is these days.
(i cant believe i typed that - as i think TV is shit)
but now the production values are much higher and the themes are far more mature.

i saw a change in TV the way most people dont - as i stopped watching it over 20 years ago - but would occasionally get minor exposure (friends houses, or a flash of a program when the tape/DVD i was watching ended)

I know some things are cheaper to do with modern technology (cgi, etc) to give television a glossier hi tech look - but i think the true driver was home video.
when people could take movies and watch them at home at their leisure - TV had to compete with much higher production values.

too bad the content is still inane.

Well, I can't remember the name of the movie (I had been drinking) but it was pretty fun.

There were these two kids and a big sister. The parents left for the weekend. The kids opened a hole with some sort of glowing stone in it. A dog died, and someone shoved it in the hole and then little creatures started coming out of it.

It's too bad I can't remember the name of it.

Jackass 2.
Got what I was expecting I suppose, stupid shit and vomit.
I think I may have preferred this slightly to the first film...but the whole thing is getting a bit old now...
One thing I thought was weird was that "wee man" didn't give the mini-bike loop a go, I mean, you'd think he'd have nailed it?
Another thing, I noticed in the trailer, they showed a scene where it looked as though they were gonna pull (margeras uncle) don vito's tooth with a pickup truck or something...but no sign if it during the movie, what happened there?

The Seventh Victim

Aside from the awful performance from the lead actress (Kim Hunter), this one damn good movie. Great plot and oodles of atmosphere.

Dusk Till Dawn

9/10

Phenomonal movie. the twist worked better than any ive ever seen before.


In The Mouth Of Madness

idk what to really say about this film. For a John Carpenter film it was disapointing, but for a film alltogether it was alright.

I watched about 15-20 minutes of the original Omen,but I fell asleep.

BlackSunProductions 12-16-2006 05:21 AM

I watched PotC: Dead Man's Chest last night. Not as good as the original, but it has delivered a new favorite movie quote to me:

Jack tips rum bottle and a few meager drops dribble out.

Jack: Why is there never any rum?

He rises from his seat and stumbles to his hat

Jack: Oh, that's why.

The Hustler (1961)

"Perverted, twisted, crippled."

Powerful, dramatic filmmaking led by a very good cast.

joshaube 12-16-2006 08:36 AM

I'm going to see The Dead Girl tonight. :)
I'm very excited; it looks and sounds amazing.

If that plan doesn't fall through, I'll probably watch Broken and Altered.
