Flash Point

Great great end fight.

Partly because of all the Japanese anime talk, I watched The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. I'll give it a 7/10.

My brother liked it a lot more than I did. I enjoyed it (especially the atmosphere when they're throwing ball), but some things should have been better.

agree

I'd say Paprika was better. TGWLTT is more of a 'watch it with a girl' type

So, I saw The Ruling Class (1974) Peter O'Toole is one of my favourite actors. Blasphemy done comically. Funny movie with a lot to say.

I got Kiss, Kiss, Bang Bang on Typhoid's recommendation, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, Robert Downey Jr. is pretty ace except didn't care for him too much in Charlie Bartlett.

I also saw The Wrestler at work last night, it was an enjoyable movie, but guess since a wrestling fan... the stuff he put himself through isn't really new or shocking.. if anything its just a sad reminder of so many stars. I did mostly get like a Hogan vibe from him though I guess a case could be made for many many more.

I try to watch at least one movie a night at work.

Where I saw Bangkok Dangerous, and Made, and some other stuff.

What did you think I did at work?

Angrist · 06-20-2009, 02:47 PM

The Big Lebowski. 6/10.
I can see why people love it... but it's not my taste.

Me either. It's a supposed "cult movie," but certainly the worst cult movie I have ever seen. I nearly fell asleep.

WTF

That movie was so freaking hilarious and awesome.

Yes, I'm going to have to agree. It's simply a good movie. Attributing the word "cult" to it is kind of an insult to me. The movie picked up recognition later than usual maybe, but I think people finally realized how good it was. Maybe I was one of the few to actually see it in the theaters, but I think it's one of the Coen Brothers' finest.

Running On Karma

"A monk turned body-builder, with the gift to see into people's lives, befriends a female cop, and uses his gift to change the force of Karma and her destiny"

Weird fun goodness.

Terminator Salvation - Just watched this and I thought it was absolute crapola. Ruined for me by the same 'actor' (if you can call him that) that spoiled Dark Knight for me. Don't know his name but, well, he's a shit actor anywho.

Storyline was pretty boring, nothing really interesting happens, I had a hard time staying awake. This film has stolen 2 hours of my life that I want back. I should have watched something else, and so should you.

I enjoyed this film almost as much as I enjoyed, War Of The Worlds 2

*SPOILER*

The only good bit was when Arnie appeared, then abruptly had the shortest life of any Arnie Terminator ever, shame.

*END SPOILER*

Watching special features on the James Bond blu-rays, and didn't realize that Kiss, Kiss, Bang Bang was a reference to the movie Thunderball.

Ric · 06-21-2009, 07:56 PM

Funny that, I always thought that this is where the saying Kiss Kiss Bang Bang came from. It's where I first remember hearing it when I was a kid

Today I watched The Day The Earth Stopped not to be confused with The Day The Earth Stood Still which I believe is, adapted / idea stolen from the former. I have yet to see the latter.

Anyway 'The Day The Earth Stopped' - Intergalactic robots threaten to destroy the Earth unless they are shown the value of humanity. They have been watching us and are concerned about our war like ways. They have come to destroy us, eliminating the risk before we advance into space and possibly destroy them. Pro-active aliens.

Low budget and featuring the guy who starred in WotW 2. The alien bird is hot and gets her jugs out

Worth watching if you get the chance but I would not buy it.

I saw X-Men Origins: Wolverine three weeks ago. Twice. Each time at a different theater, and I saw both bonus endings after the end credits got done rolling.
