Damn straight Scarlett was a bItch with that tight-ass spanx-from-hell corset , having to get all suited and booted for weak-willed and weak-chinned Ashley. Then what does he do? Marries that fiddle-dee-dumb Melanie. But that's ok because Scarlett finds a real man. Then her dang kid gets taken out by my little pony! And Scarlett ends up starving and wearing the same dress as her window. Piss on that! I'd be a raving bitch too.

Lol, good points.

There Will Be Blood was the longest, most boring, pretentious pile of overrated garbage I have ever seen. It never went anywhere and there really wasnt any blood.
Pee Wees Big Adventure is possibly one of the best movies ever created. I believe it was Danny Elfman and Tim Burton's debut, or at least very early on for them. It is a masterpiece. Smoke some weed, watch Pee Wees Big Adventure with some friends. Be happy
Just introduced pee wees big adventure to my 6 year old son a month ago. He's watched it 4 more times since. He walks around saying "I know you are but what am i, infiniti!"
will myself to find a home, a home within myself we will find a way, we will find our place
Pee Wee is so awesome. The part where they go to the Alamo... genius.
I like Das Boot. And Gone with the Wind - if you're a girl growing up in the south, you're required to read the book. So you're also required to watch the movie. For spectacle, it's pretty amazing. And Vivien Leigh is gorgeous and very good (yes, she's a bitch though). But I always thought Leslie Howard was unattractive and wimpy.

Graceful review, well done! Now excuse me while I edit and plagiarize.
GUMMO This movie is creepy, weird and may stick in your head forever. There is a little town around where I live I now only refer to as Gummo. https://youtu.be/gtY_545-ST8?t=108
The worst of times..they don't phase me, even if I look and act really crazy.
Dankind mentioned the movie Krull(1983) in a different movie thread, so I watched it on YouTube. It was great! You were right about Krull. The glaive was awesome (once he finally used it)!
It's scary as fuck, lol. As an avid horror movie fan, nothing scares me more than a good haunting/demonic presence movie, and The Conjuring movies pretty much have that mastered IMO. This second one is better than the first, which is very good. It's the best horror mov8e I have seen since the first Conjuring. This one is based in England, and I find England to be creepier than America, lol, so that increases the scary factor for me. What I really like about these movies is that the disturbances are so out in the open, so severe, no dilly-dallying, no pointless subtlety, haha. Great building of suspense and decent character development (and the characters are likeable), and well-grounded because of the overriding theme of paranormal investigation, but then it also keeps you at a pretty constant level of high stress for a huge part of the movie right up to the climax, which is a good thing.
I really like the love story between Lorraine and Ed in these movies too, and the fact that they are actually presented as legit experts (laypersons employed by the Church) who come off as generally respected even in the face or scepticism. It makes it a lot easier to suspend disbelief while watching the movies.

I was nudged awake twice during an afternoon showing. Not a good sign even though I had been working earlier.
The director and cast have put out much better content in the past. This felt forced.
I watched it Saturday evening. While I didn't fall asleep during it, I agree that it felt forced and could have been better. When we walked out of the theater, both my wife and I said that given the cast, it should have been funnier than it was. I did appreciate the nods to the original though.
On Sunday, we watched the original Ghostbusters movie to cleanse ourselves of the remake.
Disappointing, not that i'm terribly surprised, but I was hoping for a miracle. Oh well. Saw it in 3-D and that feature added nothing, really. There is just no heart in this movie. It just kind of goes through the motions of telling a story and you don't really feel it. Not 8n the dialogue, not in the acting, not in the vibe. Morgan Freeman is in it, doing a little narration plus playing a character that seemed to have no connection to his narration, which is stupid. The narration didn't even add anything. It was like they just knew people like his voice and stuck some of it in there for the hell of it. Also, Morgan Freeman didn't do an accent for some bizarre reason. He is supposed to be an African in Jerusalem, and he had the regular Morgan Freeman accent, lol. America was still about 1500 years away. Especially odd because he does an accent in his role as a Moor in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, and did a reasonable job of it.

Looks awful just from the previews.
And so you see, I have come to doubt All that I once held as true I stand alone without beliefs The only truth I know is you.
I tried watching Sausage Party, and we turned it off maybe half an hour in. It just wasn't going anywhere by then... just a series of rather pointless events that didn't entertain me at all. And it wasn't really funny. Very disappointed. I thought it was supposed to be hilarious. I normally do like that group of comedians working together (i.e. I loved This is the End, and most other Seth Rogan films). I dunno. Maybe I'll try again. Perhaps we just weren't in the mood or something, and it's better than we thought at the time.
