Utterly downbeat to the point of dejection, this is far more than a sum of its notoriously shocking parts (the mutant baby, the drug injecting, the final murders) - a film that strips away any remote chance of viewer comfort or redemption and makes Taxi Driver seem like Wayne's World by comparison. Well acted, with an unsettling score (composed by its star) and amusingly misleading packaging - depicting a Rambo-esque war romp which couldn't be further from the truth. I'm so excited about this movie I've probably posted this somewhere before, but I can't be bothered to check. |

The last "horror" movie i saw was Blade - trinity. I dont have the energy right now to describe how bad i thought it was. But is Wesley really so old that he need help from youngsters from various sit-coms? It didnt help. The humor was bad, the story was bad, HELL... The whole movie was a stinker!!! :mad:
And then i saw "Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events"........................... :mad: The end |
I am watching Serial Mom right now, it is pretty funny.
|
Just finished watching the original DOTD again.:D
|
Open Water. I was just glued to this. I have a fascination with the ocean and sharks. I know some people found it boring...but I love movies that have mostly dialogue. Theatre student in me I guess. I really think I would watch it over again. I loved the ending........haunting.

Ginger snaps 2!! Can't get Enough!!

Must be better than the first one was then...

Nine, you know I respect your opine, but your right on this one...tons of dialogue and thats about it. The film didn't do much for me except confirm the fact that I'm staying out of the ocean for any reason. If only they could stick a cruise ship in the middle of a cornfield! |

just watched "Assult On Precint 13" last night, good movie. Still cant beleive the little girl died, that was an all time high, i loved it.
|
"Don't Look in the Basement" for a forthcoming review to add to the 'Nasties' list.
|
A Spanish subtitled film called 'Talk to her' very strange, but I still give it a thumbs up.
|
gonna watch me some "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind". Just finished watching "A View To A Kill" nothing beats James Bond.
|
Yeah, James Bond is the shit - although that's not one of my favourites.
I just watched "Without a paddle", it was not THAT funny, but fairly so, and pretty entertaining. I'd reccomend at least a one time watch. Reminded me of a national lampoons kinda movie, but not quite as nuts, check it out. |
As Good As It Gets.
|
Superman - The Movie
|
just watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind again.
Kate Winslet looks good with all those different color hairstyles. |
I just took a shit.
|
...last movie, not last movement
|
A movie called "The Tornado". It's a blaxploitation film from the 70's. It was crazy nutz.
|
I watched Horror Express a couple nights ago.
I hadnt watched that since I saw The Thing, wow those movies are similar! I love both of 'em tho |
The Hillside Strangler.
Early word on this was right, this is a real censor-baiting misogyny-fest. C Thomas Howell is excellent as Kenny, but Nicholas Turturro is a tour-de-force as the fearsome Angelo - sort of a Chris Penn performance by way of Joe Pesci. Some of the protracted torture and murder scenes are very difficult to watch, and it is most surprising this was passed uncut in the UK (Tartan Films supremo Hamish McAlpine must be sucking off BBFC chairman Quentin Thomas). On the whole, director Chuck Parello delivers again - his Henry 2: The Mask of Sanity was a great start (what about that head-sawing scene?), and after the relatively restrained Ed Gein this proves he is not one to shy away from risque material and show what other directors barely dare to hint at. Unfortunately, the unpleasantness is virtually non-stop once it gets going - meaning the later, less detailed murders loose their impact somewhat and the ending seems rather rushed. |
"Die Another Day" I said it once and I'll say it again.....James Bond rocks my world.
|
I've always been a huge Bond fan .. as Politically Incorrect as it is these days.
There was a time i could tell you evey bod gun/car/girl off the top of my head .. I have all the books .. including the ones written after Fleming. I have books about bond .. I have every movie on DVD, most on Laserdisc, and all on VHS. Every soundtrack too .. Man those John BArry scores kick ass !!!! The series has faltered (Moonraker) and has picked back up again (tomorrow never dies) Its one of the longest running franchises (if not the longest) and no matter what .. I'll always follow it. Best Villian : Christopher Walken |
Urgeok, if you have a whole bunch of the books n stuff, I was just wondering, have you ever seen the graphic novel kinda thing?...I think it came before most (or even all) of the films, and was by Fleming, but I'm not sure who did the art.
Basically the whole storyline involved JB protecting some chick in a house/barn out in the middle of nowhere against her 3 would-be assassins? I'm not 100% but JB himself may have been shot and/or killed in the end? I'm not sure of the name, but I found a copy in an old bookstore a long time ago and quite enjoyed reading it. Very oldskool. Ok, and to keep on topic, I watched Office Space for the first time in a few years...man, I always loved this movie... |

It was a roadside diner/motel and 3 crooks were trying to hole up in it. (Bond and girl survived) I never saw the graphic novel though. Most of the Bond books were first published in Playboy. |
Wow... Sounds like the movie deviated a bit from the book.....
|
Quote:
it was actually the worst book of the bunch .. very weak and low key. I dont mind it being played low key ...but the writing wasnt very good. ironically the best bond book ever was moonraker .. |
hehe...
Was "A View to a KIll" actually a book? Because, love it though i do, it was an awful movie. Tanya roberts is a moron and a shitty actress, and james bond had sex with Grace Jones?!?! ick.... Actually, Haley Barry was the first attractive black woman that Bond Banged. |
Hmmm....I've been looking for the graphic novel in question....can't seem to find it, all I know is that it was made very early in the JB movie series, if not before, and it was about (I think) three guys trying to off some woman.
I wish I knew what it was, cos I really liked it. May have been a bunch of the original comic strips all put into a book maybe?? |
i'd be willing to bet that if there was a graphic novel, it came long after ...
i found a couple of articles that might help you .. The books did come first as shown in the second paragraph Bond In Books Titan Books will be presenting their latest reprints of classic James Bond comic strip adventures. First published as daily newspaper strips in the 1960's, Titan have lovingly collected and remastered the strips as graphic novels. Enter the prize draw at the show for your chance to win a complete set of Titan Classics! Penguin USA will be making the trip across the pond to show off their latest Ian Fleming novels with retro artwork specially commissioned for the series. In 1956 Fleming started selling his novels to be adapted for a comic strip. He was asked to contribute to a series of articles for London's Sunday Times on diamond smuggling. The articles appeared in book form in 1957. Fleming published A successful children's book about a magical car, CHITTY-CHITTY-BANG-BANG. "But some motorcars - mine, for instance, and perhaps yours - are different. If you get to like them and understand them, if you are kind to them and don't scratch their paint and bang their doors, if you fill them up and pump them up when they need it, of you keep them clean and polish and out the rain and snow as much as possible, you will find, you MAY find, that they become almost like persons - MORE than just ordinary persons - MAGICAL PERSONS!!!" The story was adapted into a musical film in 1968. Fleming wrote the book for his son, Caspar, who committed suicide at the age of 23. |

The first black woman was the double agent in Live and Let Die. I thought she was attractive .. Actually Grace Jones has a feirce beauty of her own .. she's stunning, just not in the conventional sense. your problem Vod is that you like your black women to look white ! :) and yes Tanya Roberts was an embarrasment to the series |
