The Simpsons Movie. 5/10

Man, that was boring. I was hoping they had saved up the best jokes for like 2 seasons. But this was hardly funny. And I didn't like the way they colored it, too bland.

I first saw the film years ago too and have actually watched it several times, I mentioned it because I had just watched it again and thought it would be a good one to post. Yes, you ''acquire'' the film, that is my normal method

I like to ''acquire'' things.

Now for Sunday, after watching the Turkish GP I was unable to use the laptop (it's not mine) so I thought, what have I not seen yet? So today I watched all the Harry Potter's back to back. That'll save me some reading. My favourite scene from the five movies? When Hermiony punches Malfoy in the face. It was about time, if I was Harry I would have kicked the shit out of him on day one

I want the next HP now.

36th Chamber of Shaolin

I really like when most of the movie is the training. Good stuff.

Just watched 21. The film that came out last year with Kevin Spacey in thats about card counting in blackjack. I thought it was pretty good, well worth a watch if you have not seen it. I would also say if you like it you should check out another film I like that it reminded me of - Boiler Room.

I watched The Hangover....the laughs kept coming, but it helped that I was in a packed theater.

Fox 6 · 06-11-2009, 10:27 PM

Saw UP today.

Amazing, as I expected. Very funny and original.

Densha Otoko (Train Man)

Based on a true story. An otaku stops a drunk man on the train from harassing this lady and she sends him a gift as a thank you. The otaku known as Train Man posts his story on a message board and with the help of the members gets continuous advice about how to go about dating the woman.

It was first a book in the form of message board posts and has also been turned into several manga, a tv series, and this movie. I read one of the manga before watching the movie, which was good, but the movie captures Train Man's dorkiness much better. What I really like is you see the chorus of people on the message board posting their help from their respective homes/jobs and see how Train Man's story affects their lives.

Sounds very interesting, I'll try to find it.

Supercop

I'm running out of Jackie Chan movies to watch from Netflix's Watch Instantly list.

Angrist · 06-15-2009, 06:21 AM

Did you see The Myth? My brother loved it because it's so bad.

Teuthida · 06-15-2009, 08:53 PM

Just watched The Myth. It was...well, it was pretty...and the historical drama part was good. First martial arts movie with flying I've seen where there's actually a reason behind it.

Haven't found it online yet. Shall get from Netflix sometime soon.

I "watched" Bangkok Dangerous.

It was like 3 in the morning and I was at work so was in and out of sleep.

Anyhow... as far as I can tell its about a long-haired Nick Cage teaching an Asian kid karate... think about it

Seth · 06-15-2009, 10:40 PM

I love Jackie Chan. He's da man. I'm going to get a 'bundle' of his films once I have more storage capacity. There aren't too many of his movies that I have yet to see, but a lot of them were viewed so long ago I need a refresher.

I have to see Project A still. The sequel was soo good, can't believe I haven't gotten to the original yet. Also, I wanna check Thunderbolt cuz of the race scenes. I heard 3 Brothers(aka dragons forever) is super.

Sunshine Cleaning. 7.5/10
I didn't really know what to expect, but it was entertaining. Definately more of a woman's movie though. There were 10 girls and 4 guys in the theater.

Oh and I recognized the main character as the girl from Catch Me If You Can. She played a pretty good role here.

Bube · 06-16-2009, 09:34 AM

I watched Get Smart last night, but fell asleep during the last 30 minutes. Not that it was boring/bad, I was just too sleepy, and it was too late. What I saw I liked, pretty funny if you look at it the way it was meant to be looked at. 7/10
