The Official What was the last movie you saw??

Action Jackson.

 

I think that was Rocky Balboa nemesis Carl Weathers only lead role. I think it was also the first leading female role for Sharon Stone. BTW, that 'Big Ern' GIF on your sig is awesome! I want a bowling ball with a rose in it some day.

 

i think its because the movie isn't very good, what a waste of 144 minutes of my life

Good black comedy and based on a true story. Not your typical Jack Black character either.

 

why's that matter? wtf dude.

 

Tyler Perry found your post amusing.

 

Pacific Rim.

IT WAS AWESOME!

 

yeah pacific rim was dope. Just when i thought it'd get campy, boom it was awesome. del toro has really won me over.

 

Have to say: I don't think there has been a Del Toro movie that I haven't thoroughly enjoyed. Can't wait to take my son to Pacific Rim.

 

ditto for me as well.

 

You wanna take his son to see Pacific Rim???????????

 

Expendables 2

Not bad. CGI blood bugged me. I loved seeing Arnie doing his thing.

 

shhhhhhhhhhh don't you know you have to win over the kids first to get to him?

 

Pacific Rim looks like Transformers w aliens.

 

Transformers are aliens.

 

Cloverfieldish ones.

 

Pacific Rim is not Transformers, at all. Other than they both have giant robots. One of the main differences is that Transformers are aliens with their own personalities.

Pacific Rim is Godzilla/Cloverfield mixed with Ultraman/Voltron/Power Rangers.

If that sounds stupid to you, then you will not like it. If that sounds awesome to you, you will love it.

The thing I like most about Pacific Rim is that it doesn't insult my intelligence like Michael Bay does in Transformers.

 

Like Michael Bay does in just about everything.

Is it well-written or just an action movie you watch for the cgi? Idk if I can sit through 2hrs of Charlie Hunam.

 

It is pretty much an action movie you watch for cgi. The story isn't totally terrible, however if it wasn't for the cgi, it wouldn't be worth watching.

 

I watched Transamerica tonight. Felicity Huffman (William H. Macy's wife, he produced and co-wrote the movie) did a great job acting like a transgender guy, I wasn't sure if it was a guy or a girl playing the part through most of the movie. One of those 'road trip bonding movies' like "Little Miss Sunshine" or "Rain Man." They did a good job with it.

 

Saw Pacific Rim. Much better than Transformers imo - better story and much better CGI and visuals. Very visually impressive, a level above other movies. Has the capacity to make you just go WOW in ways that a movie like Avatar or Jurassic Park when it first came out did. If you are thinking of skipping it as a movie trying to ride the tails of a dying Transformers for a cash grab, you will be missing out. Blows it out of the water.

 

Eh. Just got out of Pacific Rim. Visuals were stunning. Acting and dialogue was very cheesy and not well done IMO. It's worth a watch. But if I had to do it over again I wouldn't of spent the $30 to see it in the movies 3D

 

I thought Avatar was a pos.

 

The Wolverine

Excellent, IMO. Even though it acts as a sequel of sorts to X-Men: The Last Stand, it doesn't beat the fact into you.

The post-credits scene is great! Perfect bridge between this movie and Days of Future Past.

 

First time I saw the commercial for Pacific Rim I thought it was just an ad for remastered and extended music video for Bestie Boy's "Intergalactic"

 

I'm seeing PACIFIC RIM and WOLVERINE Tuesday night.

 

Just watched this disturbing yet gripping gem of a psychological horror/thriller/drama on Netflix called Chained starring Vincent D'Onofrio (Leonard/Private Pyle from Full Metal Jacket) who gives a masterful performance of a cab driving, psychologically damaged, serial killer who imprisons the young son of a woman he murders and forces him to become his protege, all while developing a soft spot for him.

 

Finally watched BATTLE ROYALE last night. Really good; not overhyped at all.

 

was it better than its copycat Hunger Games?

 

I was actually struck by how, despite a similar concept, the stories are played MUCH differently. "Hunger Games" is more of an indictment of the media's role in society; "Battle Royale" is about the conflict between generations. As crazy as the BATTLE ROYALE concept is, they do a great job of selling it and actually make you understand the rationalization of a society that looks to control a juvenile population that's out of control. I was very happy to see that both movies stand well on their own.

 

Watched 2 movies this weekend:
-Hansel and Gretel - Witch Hunters: Damn that was a terrible movie. Gemma's hotness is wasted in that movie. Renner has no standards
-Jack the Giant Slayer: a little cheesy, but still very enjoyable to watch with my family because it was done in storybook style.

 

i watched olympus has fallen last weekend, turn off the brain and just some action, movie was ok, i didn´t like that it is shot mostly in the dark

 

Thanks Doc. I'll probably give it a go tonight then.

 

I'd be very interested in your thoughts. It really has stuck with me.

 

definitely. I'll let ya know what I think afterward, provided Netflix didn't dub it of course b/c I'll turn it off quickly if they did.

 

Nope. I saw it on Netflix, and it was subtitled.

 

You'll want to sample Molly Quinn's hotness is HANSEL AND GRETEL GET BAKED to cleanse your palate. Weird movie, and it didn't always work, but it wasn't the disappointment H&G:WH was.

 

By using the word, "disappointment" does that mean you actually had hope for H&G: WH? If so.....why?

 

The trailers and even the opening credits made me hope for broad, anachronistic fun along the lines of XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS. But the rest of the movie didn't have an ounce of fun or humor. It was just loud and uncreative.
