A friend let me borrow John Carter. Ive heard some complaints, but I liked it and would recommend it to anyne that loves SciFi. And I just relized that the guy that plays Carter was in the Wolverine movie with Lynn Collins

 

Haha. My wife and I saw about 5 minutes and that was hard enough. Not what I was expecting at all. Maybe I'll see it one day... but not likely. ;)

 

 

I was actually looking forward to that coming on Sky.......despite being panned, the trailer looked good to me

Black Swan

 

Strange film, can't decide if I liked it or not

 

Dude? Mila Kunis. Natalie Portman. Lesbian love scene. What's not to like? :crazy:

Smokey and the Bandit.. This classic just NEVER gets old!!!

 

Haven't seen this in dog years, but seeing you mention it on Facebook the other day made me wanna check it out, so I reserved it @ the library. They have to ship it in from another town but I should have it next week sometime...

 

As for me... I've been slackin' on the film watching lately, need to get back into the groove. Is it weird that all the media whoop-de-doo over the Batman Midnight Movie Theatre Massacre in Colorado makes me wanna pull my DVD of "The Dark Knight" off the shelf and watch it again? :unsure:

Rise of the Planet of the Apes

 

Expected basically nothing from this one, and wound up enjoying it a lot.

James Franco was barely annoying in this one... :P

Just because it's been almost a decade and a half and I've read so much and have heard famous quotes and such, I finally gave in and watched Fight Club.

 

Pretty much all I've read about it is that it's such a great movie, fantastic acting, superb direction, and a great social commentary on a variety of things, namely not falling in line with what we are programmed to "want". I barely got any of that. The fight scenes were great. Meat Loaf with bitch tits was pretty funny. Helena Bonham-Carter's tits were pretty nice. And even the twist threw me, but I just didn't get all of that other stuff. Between the movie and FFing through commercials, it was 2 1/2 hours plus that felt pretty plodding, at least through the first 90 or more minutes.

 

Anyone else have the same opinion or do you fall in to the "sliced bread" category?

All the talk about the new "Dark Knight" prompted me to pull my DVD of the previous film off the shelf today.

Still a great flick. Anytime I can sit through a two hour and forty minute movie and not be bored, they're doin' something right.

Heath Ledger's Joker still gives me chills.

I loved this movie but it's been years since I watched it from the beginning.

"Barbarella" (1968)

 

A pre-"Hanoi" Jane Fonda stars in this campy sci-fi comedy (based on a French comic strip and directed by Jane's then-husband, Roger Vadim) as futuristic sex kitten Barbarella, who's sent to a far off planet to track down a missing Earth scientist. Along the way she battles the alien Black Queen, gets mixed up in a revolution, falls in love with an angel, and loses her clothes -- a lot.

Lots of nifty, swingin' psychedelic set pieces and plenty of eye candy (Miss Fonda was a serious piece of a$$ back in '68!) doesn't make up for the fact that its leading lady can't act her way out of a paper bag, or that the movie as a whole is totally plotless and lumbers randomly from one silly scene to the next.

I was psyched to finally see this cult classic after hearing so much about it over the years but I was disappointed. Oh well, they can't all be gems, I guess.

"Ratatouille" (2007)

[media=]

[/media]

 

Disney/Pixar animated hit in which a French rat with a knack for gourmet cooking comes to the rescue of a once-famed Parisian restaurant, which is now on the decline and run by the incompetent son of its former world-renowned chef.

 

As usual, it's beautifully animated and funny as hell, with a sweet side. More "adult" than the usual Pixar fare, the kids probably won't dig this one but their parents will.

"Punisher: War Zone" (2008)

[media=]

[/media]

Marvel Comics' vigilante manages to piss off both the underworld and the FBI when he inadvertently kills a deep cover agent, so the good guys and the bad guys are both gunning for him big time.

The previous two "Punisher" flicks never really hit the mark but the third time is the charm, they FINALLY made a Punisher movie that's true to the comics. Utterly brutal, totally mindless, over the top shootin' sh*t up, blowin' sh*t up fun.

"Conan the Barbarian" (2011)

 

 

Jason Momoa takes over the role of Cimmeria's favorite sword-slinger made famous by Ahhh-nuld. In this new tale Conan swears vengeance against the crazed warlord who destroyed his village when he was a child. During his quest he beds a hot princess babe, fights a couple of nasty creatures, and oh yeah, cracks a LOT of heads.

 

The "story" for this flick is paper thin but you're not likely to notice with all the ass kicking going on. Just like the '80s films, this "Conan" is dumb, but fun.

    • New song 'Burning Like A Falling Star' from the forthcoming album 'Full Circle'.    
    • 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.

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!
