I really shouldn't be asking a female this question, but here goes...

...Is Sideways good?

ummm...what's wrong with a females opinon?
Anyways, it's ok....very slow, lotsa wine tasting...it did have it's funny moments

I'm about to see:
#FearDotCom
#HP Lovecraft's Dagon

Feardotcom kinda sucked

It sure did, but "Dagon" was surprisingly good.

Is that guy on your avatar...Hank von Helvete from Turbonegro ?

having a lamberto bava moment....


macabre & a blade in the dark

Last night, I watched bother of the 80's Fly movies. The first [With Jeff Goldblum] was great! A very well rounded, creepy and disgusting movie. Part 2 was....less. It was slow, boring, and not very good overall. It had its moments though.

"Sin city"

Definitely not a 10.

What was wrong with it?

Alien Vs Predator 7 / 10

Many things.

But let me start by saying, that with the Director and the huge amount of great actors, i coulnd´t help but having pretty big expectations to Sin City.



First of all, i thought the lead characters was very much alike except for their physics. All cool without many feelings. It got tiresome to listen to their monotonous, numb thoughts throughout the entire movie.

Second. The storyline reminded me alot of "Pulp fiction", very smart ass, just without any good dialogue. The story wasn´t that good and i didn´t get the intro and the last seconds of the movie. With other words, i didn´t get Josh Hartnett´s part in it? When the credits finaly came rolling i sat with an empty feeling inside. Like the credits came before the movie was entirely over.

Third. I liked the cartoon universe wich reminded me of a dark version of "Dick Tracy". I liked Elija Wood and Nick Stahl´s characters wich were wonderfully weird and colorful. Sadly there wasn´t more characters like them. But explain to me why ALL women in Sin City had to look like porno supermodels and had to be half/fully naked. It was degrading to look at and really irritated me. (I´m not a "Charlies angels" fan)
;)



The possitive things about Sin City was the originality, the effects, the enviroment, the entertainment, and Elija Wood.

All in all a 8/10

This is a good case for doing a bit of research on a movie you are about to see.
The nudity for Sin City was tuned waaayyy down from what it was supposed to be.

Giving it a 7/10 based on your reasoning is like giving star wars a 7/10 because you dont like sci-fi.

considering that it was directly based on a violent sexy graphic novel .. and was co directed by the author of that graphic novel ... thus completely faithful to the content of that graphic novel ... it was definately a 10.

Not knowing the story it's based on isnt really grounds for dismissing it..

Well, it´s true that i haven´t recearched before seeing this movie. Excuse moi. And it´s true that i haven´t read the comic book. But despite of those flaws i think i´m just as entitled to give my point of view on this movie as you are. It might be that this movie was made just right, compared to the comic book, but if i didn´t find it fantastic i don´t see why i should rate it as a clean 10?

I´m a movie buff, not a comic buff. And watching it as a movie and not a comic book obviously makes me look at it in another way than you do.

i can understand how it might not be someone's cup of tea (too violent, too dark, etc) but it was your particular reasoning that i thought was weird, not the fact that you didnt think it was perfect ...

and yes, everyone is entitled to give their point of view ... and counterpoint :)

Yes, it´s cool.;)

The Amityville Horror

zatoichi

The new? How was it?

Mr Deeds.

Watchable...

6/10

Rocketman ..for the 10th time ... and i still laugh at all the same stuff as i did the 1st time i saw it ..

Not being into the whole Wine tasting thing it was boring for me. There were a few very funny moments though.

I found it stable, deep, and somewhat humorous. The bouquet, although acceptable, did have somewhat of a pungent and rancid aftertaste after its consumption, leaving me wanting or expecting more. It may prove to be more widely accepted and liked by a less sophisticated palate, and being only a 2004 vintage, it may be better refined with age. Overall, I give it a 1.6 out of 5.

"Riding the Bullet"
Not bad....actually it would have been much better as part of an anthology. It was stretched and padded for feature length.Definitely could have used some editing.

Also...I started to watch Sin City [ avi. version ] but it got kinda late so I will watch the rest tonight. All I gotta say is I always thought Carla Gugino was sexy but after watching the first scene of hers, I think I'm in love.

My Girls brought home Ring of Darkness, OMG how awful. I picked up Ripper 2, but I'm gonna watch The first one again before the sequal.

throw it away and see it at the theatre !!!

(this is coming from a guy with a wall full of downloaded VCDs)


its worth it !

I intend to.:D

Not bad

original or "beat" takeshi's remake?

The Amittyville Horror (2005)

citizen kane

i've heard the name, whats it about ?



:D

thats a true classic..not like false classics like "Gone with the wind" :D

School of Rock...tha place I was staying at had it in the collection.
I'd kinda avoided seeing this film, between JB being in it, and being in the childrens movie "kinda" genre...but hey, had nothing else to watch that I hadn't seen already.
It was actually not half as bad as I'd expected it to be.
Nothing outstanding, but watchable enough.

I saw this recently also.....I agree, wasnt awful, but not great. Some parts [I believe Ive touched your kids] were amazing though

i thought it was wicked .. really enjoyed it ..
I grew up with the same musical sensibilities the Jack Black character had so it was pure magic when he was handing out CDs for the kids to listen to and why ..

"Turkey Sub .. pink floyd - dark side of the moon .. listen to the great gig in the sky" :D

remake. very enjoyable, imo.

The Innocents...

if anybody hasnt seen it, go see it...

highly recommended...

immensely watchable...


8/10

Yes, it has some creepy scenes.:cool:
