Let's have a films thread.

[21st Century Fox]

I can't believe I waited so long to see this. Amazing.

The Hollywood remake that's in the works sounds f**king horrendously sh*t.

Hollywood should seriosuly give up on redoing foreign films. They're never an improvement and if people can't be bothered with subtitles, well, that's their loss.

I know it's definitely one of my pet hates. I can't think of many/any that are improvements, maybe some are equals but for different reasons like the Spaghetti Westerns that were Samurai remakes, but everything else generally turns out pretty worthless. Anything that gets released in the States with subtitles is usually automatically considered art house.

Just been to watch The Cabin In the Woods. Really enjoyed it. 8/10

[General Smuts]

Anyone got a good link to Project X online?

[Daggers]

We Bought A Zoo tonight.

Not us, we watched the film. There's not many films you can watch as a family spanning generations where everyone enjoyed it. Maybe if my lad was a few years older he'd be too busy sulking, thinking of his next argument an popping off for a wank...but he isn't so he didn't. And we all loved it.

A really, really nice film.

[Webbo]

She ought to blow her nose.

[dave the caveman]

50/50 --- 7.3/10

[Leicfox]

A David and Goliath law drama about a drug-addicted lawyer who takes on a health supply corporation while battling his own personal demons.

Quite enjoyed it. Worth watching.

[Trav Le Bleu]

Chris Evans in serious role shock?!

[rico]

he's good in this.....

What are some good films where the good guys don't win at the end? I'm fed up with seeing high fives, chest bumps and hugs at the finale. I want some more realistic kind of films where 'the big man' destroys everybody, urinates on them and walks away laughing with all the money and gash!

Surely what you request will give everyone a list a of films where they know the ending, thus spoiling any surprise. I am still seething all these years later, when someone spoiled Se7en for me.

Though just who the good guys might be is difficult to work out.

Watching One Flew over The Cuckoos Nest on playback now.

I'd disagree on that one - it's more bittersweet than what anything, rather like the end to Life Is Beautiful (and what a film that is!)

Unless you take from the film, like I did, that she dies in the end... and she dreams the last bit...

Oooh, I'll have to watch it again.

You're wrong about Watership Down though. Bittersweet again.

You might as well include Silent Running.
