The Movie Thread

[KarthXLR]

Saw Brave tonight. First things first: Skip the 3D, completely unnecessary and adds nothing.

The movie is good. Perhaps a step down from Up and Toy Story 3, but definitely up-to-par with Pixar's standards. The story is really simplistic, but that might be one of it's draws. It wants to focus on the characters, and does a great job with that. The humor is great, I was laughing constantly throughout. The visuals were a delight and the character design was some of the best Pixar's made in some time.

It also features one of Pixar's best shorts, "La Luna". It was fantastic and alone worth watching Brave.

This has been a 4:30 AM movie review.

You know what would be a great fucking idea? Taking a trip overseas with your previously kidnapped daughter to the country from where the guys you shot up were from because why the fuck not.

Anyway, this is what I concluded from the trailer:

The Hangover 2 : The Hangover  :: Taken 2 : Taken

Don't care. Another movie with Liam Neeson being a destroyer of worlds is pretty damn awesome.

and on that note, here's Hangover 3

[Vlambo]

They should rename Taken 2 to Taken: Take 2

Seeing that there's a new one coming out, are the Riddick movies worth watching? I've only seen snippets from a few.

I expected a lot more bear fighting, and none of the bear hiding.

Synecdoche, New York.

Hated it a little less than Being John Malkovich. Only a little less.

[KarthXLR]

Saw Seeking a Friend for the End of the World tonight. It was nice. The beginning of the movie had me worried because Steve Carrell was too pessimistic. It got to the point where I was thinking, "Nobody talks or thinks like that." However, it won me over towards the end and I really enjoyed the relationship between Carrell and Knightley's characters.

[matter11]

So I came into starship troopers 3 partway through. Can't tell if so retarded that it's broken through to awesomeness (like me) or just awful.

[Maxon]

Ted was hilarious.

[KarthXLR]

Saw the Seventh Seal tonight. Fantastic.



"The blacksmith and Lisa, the knight and Raval, Jons and Skat…
And the grim master, Death, invites them to dance.
He wants them to hold hands and dance in a long line. And the grim master leads with scythe and hourglass.
Skat brings up the rear with his lyre. They move away,away from the dawn, in a solemn dance, away to the dark country.
Whilst the rain washes over their faces, cleans their cheeks of tears of salt."

[matter11]

finally got around to seeing the expendables. Was a fun time.

Did a whirlwind moving seeing the other day. Saw Abe Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, Brave, and Ted.

Abe Lincoln restored vampires to their former glory, and if you can get past the obvious CG at times, it's a fantastic adaptation of the book.

Brave was nothing short of gorgeous, and a wonderful gift from Pixar. It made up for Cars 2 in every way. The story was a little predictable, but it is a kids movie after all. As always Billy Connolly was fucking hilarious.

Ted was what I expected, a 2 hour long live action family guy. Now that's not to say it wasn't funny, I had a smile on my face the whole time. The jokes were well planned out, and the references made the movie enjoyable. It was fun seeing many of the actors that do the VO for Seth's universe showing off their true acting talent. Also, Mark Walberg's Ass.

In the end it was money well spent, and I loved all 3 movies.

Bah, I was planning on doing something similar today. Turns out our theater is packed for once, and I can't get any tickets.

I usually don't say things like this


but Moonrise Kingdom was fucking amazing.

Gawd...Flash Gordon is so ridiculous, cheesy, and just plain fun.  Just a really silly B-Movie with what I assumed was a fairly nice budget lol
