the ghost Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 ^ Good analysis! I loved the movie, it just was "different" from most movies I've seen before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the ghost Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Sorry for the double post, but I thought this was fun! What do you think of this list? www.rottentomatoes.com/guides/best_disney_animated_movies/1/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Of Spades Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 That was a great read, thanks for sharing! Rotten Tomatoes did a great job on that list, and I agree with most, if not all, of it. Glad to see Bolt and Emperor's New Groove (My 2nd favorite film ever and one of my all time nostalgic favorites) near the top of the list! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDipper 80 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I'm glad to see Pinocchio at the top of that list, where it belongs. And having finally watched The Black Cauldron (and therefore all of the films on that list, with the exception of perhaps one or two of the "package films") I can safely say that it deserved to be that low. It was horrendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostoftheAlps Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Tired of those "found-footage" horror movies that keep coming out yet? Well, now they have a new one... that takes place ON THE MOON! Titled "Apollo 18", the film reveals why we never went back to the moon. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VA2pPv4T2YE "Apollo 18" is scheduled to be released on April 22nd. I'm not going to lie, I am looking forward to this a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcsteve Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I saw I Am Number 4, also known as the latest incarnation of Michael Bay's Explosion, last night. It was a little slow to get going, but the special effects, and explosions, were enjoyable. It's basically your average boy meets girl, jock has dibs on girl, boy kicks jocks arse with special alien powers, alien monsters destroy school type of love story.

SamanthaMc92 Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I went to see Paul the other night and it was GREAT! SO funny and good to see Simon Pegg and Nick Frost back together cause I love those guys Seth Rogan's voice as Paul was just weird, but you get used to it. Next movie I will be going to see = I Am Number Four Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clinksalot Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Watched True Grit and The Fighter last night. Both were VERY good although I think True Grit was the better movie. Marky Mark was really good in The Fighter and Jeff Bridges was of course fantastic in True Grit. Christian Bale deserves the Oscar he's likely to win tonight. Melissa Leo does not. I didn't find her performance that great. Hailee Steinfeld in True Grit was fantastic and deserves the award tonight. Sadly she won't get it.

onewheeled999 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I understand that I'm a few months late, but this evening, I watched Inception for the first time. All I have to say, is WOW. It had absolutely everything I love in a movie: ambiguity, amazing visuals, a fast-paced story, and a metric crapload of general mindf**kery. I loved it. I think I might have a new entry for my top five movies of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biomegaceu Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 See Everybody's Fine - Robert De Niro stars....it's very moving. I agree. Very emotional. My favorite director spot goes to Stanley Kubrick. I have seen all of his films and they are all fantastic. Coming close after Kubrick is: Darren Aronofsy The Coen Brothers Tarantino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastermaniac Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 After not liking the 3rd one, I don't know if Pirates of the Caribbean 4 will be good or if it'll just sink like the last one did (no pun intended). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandy524 Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I watched Going the Distance, starring Drew Barrymore and Justin Long, the other night. My husband wasn't interested so I ended up watching it by myself while he was at work. It was a cute story. It had a lot of crude, sexual humor and a lot of language in it. But all in all it was a pretty good romantic comedy. And a far cry from crude humor, I'm also halfway through BBC's miniseries Emma. It is an excellent adaptation of Austen's novel, and I'm looking forward to finishing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the ghost Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I REALLY like the film Song of the South. Sure, I see racist themes in the film, but it was made in the 40s, and although there is slavery and things like that, Uncle Remus is also portrayed as a cool old dude. Its very cool to watch, however, because its amazing how many of the Splash Mountain scenes are inspired very closely from the film... it really puts the attraction into an entirely new context after you see the film. I highly recommend it... but you may have to watch it online, as I believe the movie is pretty much blacklisted by Disney, and it is very hard to find it in its entirety.

I found a full copy of it on DVD on ebay some years back. Just googled it and found this: http://yoursongofthesouth.com/?gclid=CJTh16_7xqcCFSVa7AodgAfrCg. I understand people's concerns with the slavery and racist themes, but come on, can't we move past that now and see it for what it is? Learn from it; teach kids that slavery was wrong and it's over now. There are plenty of other offending movies out there. It was made a long time ago. And it's still a classic, and they have a ride themed to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperShawn Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Went and saw Rango yesterday to confirm it certainly doesn't seem like a kids movie. Many adult jokes that go right over the kids heads, and creepy odd and wonderfully animated Characters that could be seen as frightening to some kids. The only downside was a pretty predictable plot, but still it was worth seeing. There's a nice nodd to Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas too, which the Rango character seems like he belongs in. All in all worth seeing if you like animated films or want to see a film you don't have to think to much about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandy524 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 The husband and I watched Get Low yesterday. It was a really good movie. I knew nothing about it before he rented it, but I enjoyed it. Then I watched Burlesque (he wasn't interested) and loved it! I was a little scared to see Christina Aguilera acting, but I really enjoyed the movie!

FeelTheFORCE Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 My parents have never seen the Back to the Future movies, so this past weekend I watched the first two with them. We still have the third one left to go (I have seen it), but they seem to really like them so far! I can never get enough of those movies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostoftheAlps Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 The people behind SAW and PARANORMAL ACTIVITY have a new film coming out: INSIDIOUS. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1YbOMDI59k Insidious is Insidious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the ghost Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 ^^ I was interested from TV trailers, but the actual trailer makes it look generic. Also, from Saw and PAranormal Activity is an AWFUL way to market this... I dont watch saw to get scared... I watched cause its entertaining to see people die in insane ways. I watch paranormal activity to be startled... the 2 are entirely different genres pretty much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onewheeled999 Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Man, looks like Sucker Punch is getting torn apart by critics... Oh well, that doesn't change the fact that I think it looks awesome, and I will not miss it. Especially after watching Movie Bob's review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDcoasterMAN Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Saw Sucker Punch. Like its name, it pack quite a whopper. This movie i one of those 'eye of the beholder' movies. You may like or hate it. I found it entertaining. But I do see what the critics are seeing. The movie has many flaws. one-dimensional characters, a simplistic storyline that relies on complex elements to relate a physiological message... I miss the days when movies like this were simple to understand, like Avatar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayfarer Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Red Riding Hood is pretty good! (that rhymes!) you'll enjoy the twist at the end. IT's not a predictable movie. At first, I thought it was. But as the movie was reaching the climax, you'll be surprised to find out how every scene is literally important to understand the entire movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
