The Movie Thread

[KarthXLR]

If you like the movie the books are really good too. I'm not going to make a "books are better" argument because this one was done right. The movie is related but very much stands on its own and there is not much reason to try and compare them. They are both just solid entertainment.

How to Train Your Dragon has books?

Yep

Watched Tropic Thunder.

Not a great movie, but it has its moments. And possibly the defining role of Tom Cruise's career.

[Black Aspen]

Omg, Hot Shots Part Deux was amazing.

This pleases me.

Tangled was really good. Great take on Rapunzel. also since Zachary Levi can sing I demand a musical episode of Chuck.

That sad thing is that I could barely recognize what movies were in that.  I saw Avatar which I still really need to see, some anime that looks kind of like a Miyazake, a bunch of Michael Cera movies I didn't recognize...

Saw Tron Legacy. Visual effects, action scenes, and music is fantastic. Story and characters...not as much. . It really removes a lot of the canon the original story set (though one could argue that the movie explained it by being in a new grid) which I missed. I really enjoyed the way programs interacted with one another in the original. But hey, that's me.

Worth a watch if you want a popcorn flick or a fan of the original, but the story really felt like a cop-out.



Oh yeah. 3D. It was alright, but I think it was hardly noticeable. Save 4 dollars and just see it on a regular screen.

Saw it last night.  I concur with pretty much everything Karth said.  I also saw Black Dynamite last night.  It wasn't as pretty as Tron to be sure, but hot damn was it hilarious.  I mean like, seriously go watch this motherfucker.  Me and my friends probably spent a solid fifteen minutes after it was over just quoting the movie back to each other it was so good.
