IMO, it was a poor imitation or attempt to recreate, Stand By Me. Danzen looked like Count Dracula...he needs to get a tan.

Grey_Wolf · 12-11-2005, 01:17 PM

Have just seen Batman Begins. Fairly good. Neat special effects and stuff.

Mystery Science Theatre 3000!!!! (the movie) Funniest movie EVER! "This Island Earth can be yours if the price if RIGHT!"

I think you mean Stand and Deliver (great movie).

Grey_Wolf · 12-26-2005, 05:09 AM

I began watching LOTR: FOTR again this morning having recorded it yesterday evening.

The ETERNALLY STARING eyes of Mr Wood. ("I'm so scared, I'm so scared, I'm so scared, I am so scaaaarrrreeed!!!) slightly annoying.

***RÃan*** · 01-09-2006, 07:28 PM

I just rewatched The Last of the Mohicans with Daniel Day-Lewis. Great movie!

(but I can't get the Far Side cartoon of that out of my head

)

Anyone else here remember/like that movie?

Spock · 01-09-2006, 08:55 PM

I watched "The Lord of War" last weekend. Interesting from the detail part but otherwise not a very interesting movie and not one of Cage's better ones either.

I liked the movie but I can't remember the Far Side cartoon you referred to.

In the past few days I've seen The Constant Gardener and Murderball. In my humble opinion, both we excellent.

The Constant Gardener is another brilliant film by director Fernando Meirelles. The acting was great, but it was the visuals of the movie that really struck me. Just like in City Of God, Meirelles puts true artistry into ever shot in the movie. Not only is it beautiful, but it adds a whole other layer of meaning to the movie. I could go on much longer, but since this thread isn't called "Review movies you've just seen", I'll stop there.

Murderball was an interesting and inspiring documentary about the sport of wheelchair rugby. It really makes you look at people in wheelchairs in an entirely different way, but at the same time, the movie is not depressing or downbeat.

i watched John Carpenter's Ghosts of Mars again the other week, gotta love that film, especially when the circular saw blad rips through that woman's neck, i couldn't stop laughing!!

E, LoR · 01-15-2006, 09:17 PM

I just watched Harry potter and the goblet of fire, it was pretty good, but i think i still prefered the 3rd one....

Spock · 01-16-2006, 09:48 AM

"A Walk in The Clouds"l, a very gentle, touching movie with wonderful colors.

rohirrim TR · 01-16-2006, 10:54 AM

"house of flying daggers" a pretty cool movie but I like "Hero" better.

the BBC hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy, seriously funny, quite as good as the feature length one even with the corny alien costumes.

Mercutio · 01-16-2006, 12:49 PM

Good Will Hunting

We watched it in film class, the taped off the tv verson( ...so 140 f-words [and other things] removed).

That's an excellent movie. Kudos to Matt Damon.

Mercutio · 01-18-2006, 07:47 PM

The Winslow Boy (1999)

with Jeremy Northam

Now I need to get my hands on a copy of "An Ideal Husband"...

Mercutio · 01-20-2006, 07:09 PM

The Man in the Iron Mask

Fun movie....but such terrible acting

(except for Jeremy Irons and Hugh Laurie...but I don't expect anything less from them

).

Grey_Wolf · 01-22-2006, 06:52 AM

I just saw 28 days later. It was pretty interesting.

Halbarad of the Dunedain · 01-22-2006, 04:20 PM

Underworld: Evolution, actually it was on Friday but it was the last film I saw. Anyways, I loved it, and Kate Beckinsale as sexy Vampiress Selene.... mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

rohirrim TR · 01-27-2006, 11:05 AM

I finally watched Braveheart, after hearing so much about it. and really was a bit dissapointed, it was a good movie mind you, but from what I'd heard about it, it was supposed to be "groundbreaking" and "best movie ever" and all that and it didn't quite do all that for me. good movie just the same

the old Pink Panther, hilarious, but what a sad ending....
