I got a little more than halfway thru reading this before deciding....you know what...**** IT!
I don't want to know anymore about this ****ing movie! ROFL

I give....the ****....UP!

damn man.....


PS - I may watch it again though. hahahaha

Miles 08-26-2016 12:52 AM

Those that liked Coherence should read a recent book - Dark Matter. I read it a few weeks ago and some similar concepts.

Finally got around to The Nice Guys this weekend.

A lot to recommend it, but it kind of fizzles out at the end.

It's vintage Shane Black, if you like vintage Shane Black. Excellent use of violence [if you see it or are familiar with Shane, you know what I mean].

Worth a rental or watch on streaming. I can see where people called it an overlooked gem. But I can also see why it was overlooked. It's offbeat to begin with, and like I said it kind of fizzles it's promise overall. Don't take that as a severe rebuke, more of a 'aww, this could have been even more.'

It has one of the funniest bits of physical comedy in the scene referenced in spoilers below. Also, has a great homage to classic physical comedy, again spoilered.

Spoiler!

Frosty 08-29-2016 08:12 AM

TCM was doing a series of James Garner movies this weekend and I caught Hour of the Gun and The Great Escape.

Hour of the Gun was excellent. It is basically an earlier version of Tombstone. Jason Robards just kills the part of Doc Holliday. Highly recommend this one.

The Great Escape was enjoyable but felt a bit overlong. Also, Steve McQueen's part felt completely shoehorned in. It was like he was in a different movie. Still, the movie made me read up on the actual escape, which was pretty interesting.

Fire Me Boy! 08-29-2016 09:04 AM

Saw Don't Breathe on Saturday. Really a very well done suspense thriller. The tension is built throughout effectively. Also utilized some well-timed jump scares.

mr. tegu 08-29-2016 10:01 PM

Has anyone seen In the Heart of the Sea? Is it worth watching? I love period ocean based movies so even if it's just some good special effects then I would give it a look.

Me and my girl tried watching this one tonight and got about 35 minutes in before she asked to turn it off in favor of some Jim Gaffigan stand-up.

That bathroom scene was hilarious, though. Some good acting by Gosling there. He legitimately looked frazzled.

Also, "Wanna see my dick?"

Watched Grave of the Fireflies this weekend for the first time. It was a beautiful film, like most Studio Ghilbi films, but definitely not a cheery movie. My Neighbor Totoro it was not.

unlurking 09-06-2016 07:22 PM

Finally caught Star Trek Beyond at the theater this weekend. Wow. I didn't think it could be worse than STD. Boy was I wrong. Absolute pile of shit. The stupid hologram, clone, transporter, people carrier toy of Jala was almost as bad as the magical raise the dead blood from STD. The motorcycle scenes were idiotic, the CGI'd fight scenes were jarring, the beginning scenes were so dark as to be unwatchable, and the humor was uninspired and bland. Ugh.

Phantasm: Ravager (2016)

http://115.imagebam.com/download/O4t...83649/rav0.gif

Phantasm: Ravager isn't great, but in a way, its...um...not greatness and its confusing ending are kind of appropriate for the series. Very weak special effects fwiw. Essential viewing for fans of the series. Skippable for everyone else.



Also watched:

The Two Faces of Dr. Jekyll (1960)
Scarecrows (1988)
The Monster of Piedras Blancas (1959)
I vampiri (1957)
Shark Exorcist 2015
The Dead Pit 1989
Lies 1985
Hercules, Samson & Ulysses 1963
The Borrower1991
Hell Night (1981)

Caught the Big Short on Netflix. Very well acted.

I'd need to do some research on truthiness, but the business side seems oversold. That's just me being a nerd. Watch the movie. It's well done.

You mean like:

https://www.amazon.com/Big-Short-Ins.../dp/0393338827

http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...57106dd404.jpg

Books has way more information and infuriating, but educational. I highly recommend it.

The movie adds the humor and dramatized it but there isn't much factually off in the events or timeline.

Anyong Bluth 10-26-2016 10:49 PM

Just caught The Shallows.

Most definitely worth a viewing!

Watched "Everybody Wants Some" the other night, pretty good flick. It's pretty much "Dazed and Confused" of the modern day.

I've always enjoyed Mike Birbiglia's standup. His movies seem to mirror his standup -- funny (but not the funniest), but excellent storytelling.

I saw the Intern recently.

Better than I expected, although my expectations were really low. I'm not a Hathaway fan (although I'd like her to sit on my face) and DeNiro has laid some eggs recently.

It should be noted that I'm a business junkie, so the dynamics of the company, as unrealistic as they were, held some interest.

Hathaway did a far better job than I thought she would. DeNiro was endearing. The story wasn't too damn shallow.

Not great, but worth a look.

Haven't seen Free State of Jones yet but I hear you on 12 Years a Slave. That director of 12 years, Steve McQeen (the director not the actor), is good at making movies like that. Hunger was another of his that was hard to watch. Its about this IRA member, Bobby Sands, that killed himself on hunger strike in prison in the 80's. Brutal. Guy likes making movies that are hard to watch.

Gave me an appreciation for Fassbender. There's like a 20 min long convo in one cut.

I watched the trailer for this movie after reading your post because I love Alfred Hitchcock and the mix with comedy sounded interesting. At first, I thought this looks really good. Then I decided it looked too scary for me, lol. Looks good if you like horror, but it kind of freaked me out.

I feel pretty confident in saying you won't find it particularly terrifying.

It was really more suspenseful and creepy before becoming thrilling by by the final act.
