Last movie you watched?

'The Ruins' ; got this ages ago and finally got around to viewing it today. I must say, I kind of regret getting the "unrated" version, as there were a few parts here that I would happily have preferred to be cut out. Namely, a very detailed scene of a dude having his legs amputated from the knees down. Really not enjoyable to watch at all. Terrible, in fact. Anyway, though, I guess the movie was okay-ish. The blonde girl was really sexy too, so that was nice. The story was basically about a group of kids stuck on an old ruined building surrounded by killer weeds and unable to leave for being shot by locals. I thought it'd be a dark cave movie which I'd have hated, so I'm glad it wasn't what I expected. Kinda worth watching...

 

'Sherlock Holmes' ; got this one for my wife and it's definitely more her type of thing rather than something that interests me. It was watchable and I guess I did enjoy it enough to get through, but it's not the type of thing I'd go out of my way to see.

"Live and Let Die" (1973)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlbaxJ4iAn4

 

Roger Moore's first turn as James Bond is a funky attempt to mix the traditional Bond derring-do with the then-current "Blaxploitation" craze, as 007 travels from Harlem to Louisiana to the Caribbean on a hunt for a voodoo-worshipping drug kingpin. As with most of the Moore 007's, there's an equal mix of action and light comedy. Oh, and a very young Jane Seymour (yowza!) provides the eye candy this time around.

The book is superb, so my expectations were low on a quality movie translation, but I must say it was still enjoyable even with my mind going all the time about this charecter being different or that scene being added or ???

"Goldfinger" (1964)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdQoSK9wibU

 

In his 3rd film adventure, James Bond battles the criminal mastermind Auric Goldfinger, who's got an ambitious plan to invade the gold depository at Fort Knox.

 

Widely considered to be the best Bond film, this one pretty much set the template for the series that is still in use today - lots of action, cool spy gadgets, 'n' hot babes. Hard to believe that this movie is almost 50 years old, it's held up very well!

"House on Haunted Hill" (1999)

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p2iNhDApGEY

 

High-tech update of the 1950s classic is pretty damn good in its own right, as a group of people accept a challenge to spend the night in a supposedly-haunted former insane asylum in order to win a million dollar prize. Geoffrey Rush, Famke Janssen and Chris Kattan chew the hell out of the scenery and there's plenty of cool gore effects. Neat stuff.

Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore

 

Liked it just like the previous one.

 

My kids love the "C&D" movies, we own both of'em on DVD. I thought "Kitty Galore" was fun, but I liked the first one better cuz Mr. Tinkles was definitely the superior feline villain. ("EVIL...does NOT...wear a BONNET!")

Kick Ass

 

Been meaning to watch this for ages and finally got round to seeing it this week. The film really does kick ass, even my wife (who thought it was a bit silly for the first 45 minutes or so) said it was good at the end. Hugely enjoyable film and for me the most bearable Nicolas Cage performance I've ever seen!

THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO (2009)

the original Swedish flick that's translated into Hollywood movie, Blomkvist was portrayed by Daniel Craig, but haven't watch this version, but all I can say from the original movie is not bad, I've seen people rated it quite high, but to me it's a good one, but not really great. The reason is probably I've seen hundred times plot like this and I expect a lil bit of wicked and twisted plot toward the end, but I didn't find any. So like you expect from a typical detective/crime drama thing, this is what you'll get.

    • Well, the first two "Giant" albums are quintessential, as is the "Hardline" debut. Akdo Nova's "Blood on the Bricks" is one of my all time favourites, Lizzy Borden is awesome as is the Mark/Marcie Free fronted "King Kobra".  
    • So some may remember that Tyketto toured recently and aside from Forever Young, I never delved into this band. So I did, so I'd know the songs in concert and was blown away. A great band with an awesome catalog that I had missed out on. To be fair, in the 80's it was a lot harder to access and find out about a lot of the more fringe bands, that's my excuse anyway. So I now am faced with digging deeper into some other bands I've overlooked. Some of these I gave a go, and wasn't really impressed, but now I'm starting fresh with an open mind. So below is a list of bands I have eitehr never bothered with, or never really gave a proper go. Lizzy Borden is on the list and I have done a bit of their stuff and like it a lot, so I will definately dig deeper into them (I've got some older stuff and some newer stuff, but have skipped quite a few albums) But the others, fire away, tell me which bands have killer material that I'll froth and how stppid I've been to skip them. Aldo Nova Badlands Baby Tango Baton Rouge Black N Blue Britney Fox BulletBoys DAD Giant Hanoi Rocks Hardline Jetboy King Kobra Kingdom Come Lillian Axe Lizzy Borden Loudness Love Hate Quireboys Saigon Kick Santa Cruz Shotgun Messiah SleezeBeez SouthGang Tiger Tailz TNT Vain White Tiger  
    • New song 'Chase The Sun'.    
    • Super Sabre - Sugar and Spice *This is actually a full album, “Chasing the Rabbit”, with a complete band backstory included in the YT description. “Sugar and Spice” is the opening track…  
    • EP out August 16th on Black Lodge Records. Since the release of the album "Now!", Roulette has embarked on a remarkable musical journey. Over the years, released several digital singles, each contributing to the evolving story of the band. As Roulette gear up for the new summer single "Love's The Drug", we're thrilled to announce the release of our special collection, the EP "From Now Until Today". This EP gathers all the singles released since "Now!", encapsulating the essence of Roulettes latest musical explorations. For the loyal fans, the physical releases also included a special bonus track that you won't find anywhere else-exclusively on this EP. Tracklist: LOVES THE DRUG READY FOR FRIDAY NIGHT LIFE WILL GO ON SUMMER DAY TEST OF TIME
    • I like the album art. I love when contemporary Glam Metal bands have album art with a genuine 80s vibe to it.
    • Nope, for a while, I used to think Rapunzel from Tangled (2010) was hot... But then I stopped being attracted to cartoon characters.
    • This is definitely the first time I've heard about it, I'll have to give it a listen!
