    it could have been a pretty good movie, but it was made to suck.


    I knew it sucked and I didn't have to go see it. lol

    wasn't too hard to figure out. :lol: even the gf wasn't expecting much, but she wanted to go, so i obliged.

    at least the popcorn was fresh.

    MST3K would be perfect for this film (which apparently they have done it on Rifftraxx) I would watch it again though.

    Someone say MST3K?

    is it just me, or does the 2010 movie season look pretty weak?

    Just watched '13 Tzameti'. Brilliant movie. It starts off quite slow but then becomes pretty mental as it turns into a Russian roulette competition/gambling match.
    It was released in 2005.

    Anyone else seen it?

    From Wiki:
    (Don't read the Wiki article in it's entirety if you don't want a spoiler)

    Reception

    The film has an 84% approval rating of critics tracked by Rotten Tomatoes, which described the critical consensus as "this starkly minimalist nail-biter of a thriller relentlessly builds up the tension and keeps the audience guessing."

    Awards

    The film won the World Cinema Jury Prize at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival. It also won two awards at the 62nd Venice Film Festival.

    Remake


    An American remake of the film is currently in production,[4] but Babluani intends to "change a lot of the storyline" to avoid merely reshooting the original film. He has also indicated that he intends to shoot the remake in color (screening at the University of Notre Dame, 23 Feb 2007). The film will star Mickey Rourke, Ray Winstone, Jason Statham, Sam Riley, 50 Cent, and Ray Liotta.[4]

    Just caught The Hurt Locker.

    It's excellent. And not in a Bill & Ted way.

    Very deserving of the win.

    Just watched 'Confucius'.

    Very good movie. My favourite movie of the year so far. I thought it was going to be boring, but it's a really good film. You'll need subtitles though as it's a Chinese film. It looks like an epic 1960's movie - like The Searchers, or something. Also reminded me a bit of 'Cold Mountain'. It has some really nice scenery...beautiful landscapes.

    watched "She's Out of my League" on sunday.
    It was just OK. I was expecting more. However, my movie-going experience might be biased since some asshole brought a 3 year old into a crowded 9:45 rated "R" movie. The kid talked, walked around, skicked seats, cried, yelled, and was very annoying until I saw an open seat a few seats down and moved. Some Fucking parents these days are cluless. :evil:

    long story short, i'd rather have waited for it on DVD.
    Pick up my debut novel here on amazon: Jonny Bails Floatin (in paperback) (also available on Kindle for $2.99)

    saw the ghost writer on the weekend ...

    it's pretty good - it's about a writer who has to take over the writing of the former PM of britain after his predecesor was found dead ... pretty interesting socio-political theme ... wonder what tony blair thinks of this movie?

    Finally saw Alice in Wonderland in 3D over the weekend. I enjoyed it. Some parts were pretty bad though (Didn't care for the ending). Visually it was decent. Plot had some holes in it.

    i watched the documentary 'manufactured landscapes' the other night on the photography of edward burtynsky, it was really good

    trailer
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3uYIWig ... re=related

    though, the pullouts on the trailer are too fast, in the doc it focuses on a small thing like a ladder or car or dump truck then slowly pulls out to show this massive scale of it all

    dunno if it'[s been mentioned yet or not but seeing as it was just released on DVD this week or last......


    go rent an education.


    soooo good!


    btw - i seriously miss the 'search for threads started by this poster' option as i recalled kat started this thread, and just searching by the thread title, well fuck...i had to go thru 7-8 pages of other BS to find this.
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    i searched movies and kat and this was the first to come up ... :)

    saw an education ... brilliant performance by carey mulligan and a shout out to alfred molina ... one of those guys who delivers in his often supporting roles ...

    anyhoo - wanted to mention a film i saw the other day ... Mother and Child ...

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1121977/

    it's about adoption ... overall, it was missing the drama that a film like this needs to push it over the top ... it was however BRILLIANTLY acted by pretty much everyone in the cast ... i will go out on a limb and say Annette Benning gets an Oscar even tho this film is released at this time of year ... she was outstanding ... same with naomi watts ...
