Let's have a films thread.

But it wasn't saturated with sex and violence and therefore not an accurate potrayal of life.

The man is hit with about 20 explosive missile... at close range! Even GoT doesn't get THAT violent!

What is this "Posted Image" film that people keep raving about?

[Smudge]

I watched Cold Comfort Farm last night, 1995. The book was written in 1932 as a parody on the DH Lawrence, Thomas Hardy depictions of rural life. Good one to watch with Mrs. 'Username' if you are doomed to a chicflick night.

New Bond trailer. The beginning does sound like that game Timmy Mallett used to play on Wacaday.

It was OK.

Thought it was rubbish. Very disappointing

Can't we just take that as a given for everything originating from 1970-1989?

And I believe out on DVD the following week. Shame - the concept is brilliant, but the budget clearly limited.

The Master

I've been dying for this to come out. Apparently The Church of Scientology have been trying to throw a spanner in the works during it's development for some time. The Master is supposed to be modelled on L. Ron Hubbard.

The Grey was pretty good. It's about a bunch of oil workers whose plane crashes in a snowy alaskan wilderness filled with angry wolves. Straddled the border between credible and tacky perhaps a few too many times and there were several things that didn't make a lot of sense, but overall it was a fairly strong movie. 7.2/10.

Take Shelter was ok. It's about a family man who seems to be descending into a mental illness which manifests itself in bad dreams and a fear of a big storm. I enjoyed the freaky weirdness like I always do with those kind of movies but it lacked something, maybe a point, because it the end it never really went anywhere. 6.7/10.

Good film and Gina Carano is so fit

It looks a little slow but the beach looks like the beach in front of my house.

Absolute quality. I really love P.T. Anderson for the subject matters he tackles in his movies. And he clearly allows himself the time needed to tell the respective stories.

I don't mind watching one of his films lasting for more than two hours - they're brilliant. Magnolia was not just personal (a movie about his relationship with his father), but also highly critical of religion and mass cults.

I adore There Will Be Blood.

In other news, Baz Luhrmann's version of The Great Gatsby is supposed to come out later this year. Here's the first trailer:

The Great Gatsby actually looks quite good, the 3D elements look as if they'll actually be quite worthwhile. I'm not a fan of the stars (except Carey Mulligan) but having Amitabh Bachchan playing a Jewish guy in it looks brilliant.

[sphericalfox]

Not that it matters to anyone, but I appreciate Luhrmann's talent, but other than R&J, I don't like any of his films, and don't think I could force myself to watch any of his musical, colour forays to film. The stories don't grip me, and the amount of green/blue screen he uses distract me, as the world he creates scream (no pun intended) imaginary world, rather than something I can get involved in.

In a nutshell I guess I can't watch a 2hr perfume advert - 3D or not.

The Raid is the best action film of the last... many years.

That is all.
