Weekly movie discussion thread.

[SpicyF]

Maybe a weekly movie thread is a good idea. Right now I watch quite a few movies each week and will list and summarize them here weekly. Scoring is done on a 1-10 scale.

Movies I saw last week:



Fearless: Jet Li plays the chinese martial artist Huo Yuan Jia that lived around year 1900 or so. I would rate this movie decent/good and it has some nice fights in it. If you like Jet Li this movie will not dissapoint you.

Score: 7.21


Accepted: Comedy featuring Justin Long about him failing to get accepted to college thus resorting to creating a fake college to fool his parents. Of course this get a bit more complicated than he originally thought. It has some really good laughs and a good looking chick. I think you need to like these kind of comedies to enjoy this movie to the fullest. For me it was very enjoyable.

Score 7.78

I Trust You To Kill Me: Music documentary about a band called DeLuca and the (something) which Kiefer Sutherland is helping to spin off. First part of the docu is mainly some interviews with Kiefer and the band. Not really interesting. Second part features the european tour which the band and KS goes on. Good music, some interesting interviews, other than that, nothing special.

Score: 5.19

Other movies seen last week.

Dreamgirls. Score 7.99
The Sentinel. Score 6.64
Stealth. Score 6.12
Girls Gone Wild Best Breasts Ever. Score 9.12

Will also give a special mention to the new Sci-Fi TV show The Dresden Files. Based on the novels by Jim Butcher.

You might notice my scoring seems slighly skewed towards the upper scores, but I rarely watch movies which does not seem interesting/good.

Can we git a bit of a recap for GGWBBE? The score is pretty good but not a 10. I assume some of the breasts were just average?

Also <3 your mention of the Dresden files. I have read all the books and have been trying to force others in #sstakes to watch the show but have been unsuccessful thus far.

Sentinel was super weak imo.
Stealth was almost good as a comedy
Fearless was a very good movie for a martial arts film. Solid enough story, and better character development than you would expect from a movie like this.

[astroglide]

the last king of scotland was very good.

[mjkidd]

Are your ratings really significant to 1/100th of a point?

Pan's Labyrinth

Extremely good. The cinemetography and sound is unqiue, creating a glowing, surreal world both inside and outside the labyrinth. Very good acting with an engaging story and deep characters.

Despite the misleading advertising, THIS IS NOT FOR CHILDREN. From the trailers, I thought most of the film was going to be a Tim Burton-esque trip through a labyrinth dream world. This is not the case. Very little time is spent in the labyrinth (twenty minutes maybe?); most of the film is a war story. And it's quite violent. But the war story is quite good by itself, and contrasts wonderfully with the labyrinth.

A must-see.

spicyf,

Ive only seen 2 GGW videos and both were several years ago. They sucked EXTREMELY hard. It was a bunch of staged crap and really bad porno scenes. But im seeing like 20 GGW commercials an hour on comedycentral and its making me want to give it a second shot. Did the video you watch contain lots of bad acting and rigid, stale porno scenes?

[tiltowhirl]

I finally saw Out Cold and it filled the gaping hole I thought was left in Hollywood after Dazed'n'Confused--I just happened to miss it completely at the time.

6.9
