Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?
 

I just saw one of the worst movies ever made over the weekend. Nick Cage in "Wickerman". It just goes to show you that there are still amateur film makers out there who prey on the movie going public. The makers ended up with a 45 minute feature so they added tons of nonsensical and unrelated subplots to fill time. Flashbacks are OK when they tell part of the story. Here the flashbacks had nothing what so ever to do with the plot. Stay away!

I must say i second that opinion...it was definently one of the funniest movies i've ever seen!

But recently i just watched Beerfest and Roadtrip. They were also funny movies!

Glory

Morgan Freeman
Denzel Washington
Matthew Broderick

My daughter will be writing a paper for History and checked out some movies to watch for inspiration and to help her decide her topic.

I had watched Glory before. It is about the spirit of the 54th Regiment of Massachusetts.

Flight Plan

Very cool movie. My favorite part was actually in the extras, where they show how they made the plane.

Apollo 13 GREATEST MOVIE EVER!!!
OK, maybe not the *greatest* but most definitely my favorite!

Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?
 

Equilibrium

Its really cool basically take alot of ideas and forsights from 1984 and Fahrenheit 451 then a little Matrix style action and your good to go.

Crank

It was awesome, and really unique... (I can see how people could really hate it though)

Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?
 

The Illusionist.

It was much much better than I thought it would be. In the first 5 minutes I said, "this movie is going to suck really bad" but I was very wrong.

Great cast, great movie in general.

plus, I love Edward norton.

Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?
 

Princess Bride. Gosh, that really is one of the best movies ever.

Miami Vice

This movie really has nothing to do with the well-known show from the 80's other than the characters names and that's a good thing. I thought the show was a bit gaudy and had a bit of a cheese factor going that this movie did away with early. It's gritty and brutal but some of the performances are stiff (like surprisingly Jamie Foxx) and the ending is abrupt and feels like Mann had no real idea how to end it. It's good but it feels like Jan to Colleteral's Marcia.

Crank
Crank is like a mashup between Jackass and those trendy high octane crime pics from Guy Ritchie. The best thing about the movie is that it never slows down and the main character is an unlikable anti-hero who they thankfully do not try to soften even at the end. The Chinatown scene is this year's puppet sex. A riot.

The Deaprted
A brutal, funny, suspensful, well-written well acted masterpice. I see multiple Oscars comming this films way. Perhaps this will be the one that Martin Scorcese finally breaks though and get the trophy he so richly deserves.

On a side note I watch the movie with my wife and her friends. One who's son is in the film as an extra (he was one of the cadets at the beggining of the film). They were having quite a good time trying to ID Nick.
A+

So, the front of this movie reads "Best Comedy Since 40-Year Old Virgin." I love 40YOV and was a little skeptical. But Thank You For Smoking was amazing. The best satire I have ever seen.

I bought X-3 for the extras... I've already seen the movie, and plan on watching it 50 more times (in a perfect world).

I went to a friends house Thursday night... we watched a bunch of movies.

1. Space Balls - great, even after the 20th time
2. Resevoir Dogs - I STILL don't like Tarantino...
3. Sick - mix of a "C" movie and cheesy adult film
4. Hook - started watching it, but left in the middle. Still a good movie.

Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?
 

I just got back from seeing Little Miss Sunshine in theaters. Easily the best movie I've seen all year (but certainly not one for the younger audiences).

Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?
 

Well, let's see...the last movie I saw in theaters was Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, but the last movie I watched was Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. I must have this thing for action movies with long titles. :p

Re: So...What Movie Did You Just Watch?
 

My last in theater was Over the Hedge with the family (or was it the second time I watched MI3 with the band?). Last movie on DVD was V for Vendetta.
