Grabbed "End of Watch" on On Demand the other day. Good flick, it's shot in a pseudo-documentary style. A lot of it is Jake Gyllenhall holding the camera.

I watched Brazil. It's... weird. Lots of things going on with this movie. I certainly enjoyed it.

Which version? Because there are a couple of different endings, that change the context of the whole movie.

The 132 minute American/director's cut. I just looked up the European cut and don't think that the endings differ in any way that is significant to the context of the movie.

[/quote]Honestly not sure what's different between the 142 minute (original) version and the 132 minute version (which was cut by Gilliam), but I know the 94 minute one (cut by someone else) lops a bunch off the end to make the movie more 'palatable'. [spoiler]AKA the whole sequence where you realize that he's still in a chair being tortured, and the 'rescue' was in his head. And some other stuff. It's been a while since I've seen them within a week of each other.[/spoiler]

The definitive version is the 142-minute director's cut, available from Criterion. It adds a few really great scenes into the mix. The "American" cut, as it is, was more of a compromise than anything. It still contains the gist of the story as well as a marginally altered ending. The bastardized cut Universal produced is known as the "Love Conquers All" cut.


Also, it seems J.J. Abrams is in cahoots with Valve about a new game and possibly a Portal or Half-Life film.

Watched Pan's Labyrinth. It's a rather grim take on fairytales.




Re: The Movie Thread - A. Crow - 02-08-2013

I was thinking, "I haven't been to a movie in awhile" and so I googled what was playing right now, and then I knew the answer. 


Re: The Movie Thread - KarthXLR - 02-10-2013

Adam and Dog

One of the oscar-nominated short films. Be sure to watch in HD.


Re: The Movie Thread - KarthXLR - 02-10-2013

House is the most amazingest film I have ever seen ever

Re: The Movie Thread - A. Crow - 02-10-2013

so.... slowly eating through my Amazon Instant Video credits...

Snow White and the Huntsman. 


Forget about the characters, the actors, the plot, all that shit- I mean, because fuck Kristen Stewart, the visuals and environment design are what make this movie.  The dark forest is extremely well done.  It's such a shame that the environments had so much character in a movie that at face value, had none.

Is that ALL you have to say about this movie, Karth? Because I was on mumble and as I recall you had a few more than 11 words to say about it.

HOUSE (1977) Trailer - The Criterion Collection

To put it simple: The movie is fucking crazy.

Oh, Karth.
Be not so hard a judge of your written output!
I find the written version
of your opinion
of this movie
has a flavor of
crisp succinctness
that your spoken word performance
lacked.


Re: The Movie Thread - KarthXLR - 02-12-2013

The Muppet Movie was perfect.

10/10

Every single joke worked, the screen play was brilliantly written! The characters and cameos were wonderful, the songs were lively and memorable! GODDAMN why have I never seen this before?

The Muppet Show had fucking amazing writing/music/blocking. Not a surprise that their first feature-length was also stellar.

Movin' Right Along - HQ - The Muppet Movie


Re: The Movie Thread - A. Crow - 02-13-2013

... god... i can't believe I'm going to follow the Muppets with this dribble.  Henson, forgive me. 

So, Helix borrowed her friend's copy of Pitch Perfect.  She told me this when I got home, so I went out and bought another bottle of Makers (they still have the high test stuff on the shelves), and I polished off the bottle I still had left during the first half of the movie, while she killed what was left of the handle of bacardi I've been stowing on the fridge for the past 2 months... and a bottle of skinny girl (I've turned her into an alcoholic, *high five*), anyways, we're both sloshed, and the movie was actually pretty entertaining.  There. I said it.  There is an asian chick with some completely inappropriate one liners that are fucking hilarious. And I think the lead chick is kinda dismorphic.  It's good that girls with genetic abnormalities can star in ... productions of some sort. 

But hey, there was singing.  Â
