Gawd damn; y'all are some Watchmen-lovin' mother****ers up in here.

Haven't had time to watch a lot of movies lately other than some holiday-fare.
Sat down with the wife and watched Four Christmases. What ****ing awful tripe that was. The cliched, "two people don't want a family, but see the error of their ways and realize that it's the only way to actually be happy" shit that gets spewed all the time. |

How many have seen Law Abiding Citizen? I thought it was great until that last 10 minutes and they completely sold out which was unexpected considering the content of the previous hour and a half or so. I can think of about a dozen better endings than that garbage.
Shame, it almost jumped into one of my most underrated films. |

Watched Shooter a couple days ago.
Could things have happened any more conveniently for this guy? Holy shit. Everything he wanted, he had. |
I watched Whatever Works, a Woody Allen film starring Larry David. I'm an LD fan, so I rented it. It was meh. Not my cup of tea I guess and I was kind of hoping for Seinfeld/Curb LD and that wasn't it.

so I was browsing through netflix instant watch movies and came across Carlito's Way: Rise to Power. I loved Carlito's Way, this new one was supposed to be a prequel to it and thought I would check it out and see the story. Now, I didn't expect anything but come teh fuck on. I could have wrote a way better movie for 1 simple fact, I have seen Carlito's Way. The writers for this one, obviously have never seen Carlito's Way starring Al Pacino and Sean Penn. It had nothing to do with it at all, nothing. They even had the guy who played Pachanga in the first one, but he was a completely different character. No best friend lawyer, no Gail story and was a latino chick. WTF? I could have dealt with the terrible acting but don't make this movie if you have never seen Carlito's Way, they obviously haven't ever seen it before. So stupid

I'm half watching The Burning Bed. Domestic abuse is disgusting. I can't take it.

I just started Fighting. Also rented Angels & Demons.
Both were free movies on codes for the Red Box. |

Finished Serenity.
Loved it, just like firefly. Except for the one death. |

That was... unexpected. |
Just watched "500 Days of Summer".
It looks like a "chick flick", but it's not. It's all from the guy's perspective. Kinda hit home with me toward the end. A little sad... but still a really good movie. |

I watched 'food inc' earlier on netflix via ps3 pretty good documentary. Watched Julia and Julie with the girl today and not a bad movie. |

watched Public Enemies. I fell asleep after 2 hours and it was ok, but just ok IMO. It really seemed to drag on. But I got Inglorious Basterds coming tomorrow via netflix. I'm very excited because I haven't seen it yet.
|
Avatar seems to be pretty well received so far on Rotten Tomatoes. The trailers don't really make me want to see it, but maybe it'll be better than I first thought.
|
I just saw Up. It was amazing.
|
Well, I can't remember who said that Apocolypto was a good flick but, THANK YOU! THAT WAS AN AWESOME FLICK! Finally watched it last night - great movie!
|
I agree!
|
Wow, Inglourious Basterds was very funny and badass.
Dont read this unless you've seen it.
Spoiler!
|
I need some recommendations for movies to put on my netflix.
I like movies w/ crazy twists in them, but not Shamylan crazy. |

Road to Perdition (just so you know, this isn't flowers and rainbows) The Ghost and the Darkness (I don't know why, but I really love this flick) Deep Blue Sea (corny, but the chicks in it are uberhot, and it is enjoyable, definitely worth a netflix) |
this is the main reason to watch Deep Blue Sea, aside from the hot chicks, it's the only reason because it's AWESOME

Seriously, I love that movie and it doesn't seem to get a lot of respect. |

Man, people here are hitting a lot of my favorite movies.
The Ghost and the Darkness is a great adventure movie. It's very much in the classic vein, which I loved. I think a lot of people give it a ho-hum rating because the 'villain' isn't a supernatural FX-laden juggernaut, but I think that's to its credit. You also get to see Michael Douglas and Val Kilmer lay their egos down for a movie, and underneath it all they're both great actors. |
Just finished Food Inc.
Better than I would have ever imagined. Learned lots more than I had already read about. The sad thing is, in my mind, I'm not sure who came out worse: the food system or the legal system. |
Inglourious Basterds might have been the best blind purchase I've ever made.

That said, I loved it. |
I can't believe so many people had/have not seen this movie yet. Easily one of the best of the year.

Bought it last night on Blu-Ray. |

"Thank you for playing 'Scarred for Life'; here's a copy of the Home Edition and a case of Turle Wax"! |
Watched 4 Christmass's on a flight back to the States last night. The ending seemed rushed and it could've used a little less Vince.
|
Ebert put Knowing in the top 10 of the year.

I watched GI Joe last week (I didn't pay for it).
It was....terrible. Like I expected, but I did enjoy a few parts. And a few parts were relatively well done. But they were vastly overshadowed by the shitfest. I was however surprised at the potential that was there. They could have done some good things. Oh. And the chicks were hot. I love boobs. They're my favorite things. |

Watched District 9....wow what a flick, didn't expect it to turn how it did just from the beginning having me go wtf
|
watched The Goods, live hard, sell hard. Kinda stupid and kinda funny. Worth a rent for some laughs.
also watched Taking Woodstock....boring. Fell asleep after about halfway through, will try to finish. But I wasn't really digging it at all. |
Quote:
Pretty entertaining as well. |
2009 sucked ass as far as movies. other than Basterds, District 9 and a couple of others almost everything that came out this year was shite. granted i havent seen avatar. and i wanted to see serious man and the road but they werent playing anywhere near me. hopefully 2010 will be better
