So i caught Black Swan and enjoyed it. wasn't anything really special but it was better then average.

Green Hornet i saw but didn't really enjoy that much, seemed pretty generic of a action movie.

Watched this movie Better than Chocolate for my Women's Studies class. cute little love story movie that was really really good. i recommend it for a watch.
 
Moonstruck- 9/10

It was kind of a chick flick, but it was funny and I liked Loretta/Ronnie as a couple. Also, how can anyone not love Cher in it?!

oh yes. i can never get tired of this film. cher, nic cage, olympia dukakis all delivered such fine, nuanced performances! how can anyone dismiss cher as an actress?? lol!

and of course this was back when nic cage was likeable LOL!

modern classic.
 
just watched the All Star Superman movie, underwhelming as hell, cut some of the best moments from the comic and Christina Hendricks i seen Firefly and Mad Men i know you can emote, where did all that go? Save your money on the DVD and get the original book

The movie is flat and moves too fast for it's own good. blah
 
Just caught the Grant Morrison documentary Talking With Gods and i really liked it alot. It was kind of fun hearing him explain his process, how he can to write comics and hearing the commentary from other talent in the field like Karen Berger and Geoff Johns. Though i think Warren Ellis had the best story :hys:

Also watch the Runaways Bio pic and it was alright didn't find it anything special but the acting was shockingly nice.
 
Scre4m

Just returned from seeing Scre4m and I must say it was very well done but I had high hopes since the original collaborators- Wes Craven & Kevin Williamson were involved. The core 3 (Sidney, Gale & Dewey) and their characters showed growth but still remained relevant. Hayden Panettiere along w/ Emma Roberts were excellent as the new comers. One HELL of a twist that even I couldnt see & the film definately gave the women a chance to shine. Sidney & Gale are still the baddest bitches of that franchise. And one of the messages of the film? a nice solid FUCK YOU to all remakes and the people who accept them as "good" LOL!


Bonus (players of the Six will appreciate- LUCY HALE [the current 'alternate' Firebird] appears in the film )

overall- 8/10
 
I saw Scream 4 on Friday and I really enjoyed it. Obviously it wasn't scary by any means, but it stayed true to the Scream franchise and was a lot of fun. I think it was by far better than the 3rd Scream, which is saying a lot since it's been 10 years between the 2. I freakin' LOVED Gale in this movie. She was badass as usual, and Sidney was great too! I like how she was all like "fuck being the damsel in distress, i'm gonna kick a mother fuckers ass" LOL.

SPOILER ALERT!

I loved the end when Sidney, Gale, and Dewey were all the sole survivors and Sidney goes "don't fuck with the original cast" in regards to the rules of remaking movies LOL. I was like hell yeah!

I agree w/you on pretty much all of this :nod: it wasnt scarey but i had a few surprise moments and i was definately worried for Sidney & Gale at certain moments. your spoiler is exactly what i was referring to about the big "F-U" LOL! i LOVED THAT!

Sidney definately showed herself to be a seasoned survivor in this film and true to the "final girl" phenomena of horror movies that you dont see in TODAY'S "horror films". She was the last in a great line (Jamie Lee Curtis' "Laurie Strode", Heather Langenkamp's "Nancy Thompson" etc)

and

Jill was a SAVAGE little girl wasnt she!? to be as skinny as she was...she definately was vicious.
 
[referring to your spoiler] She was!! I actually had a lot of doubts about the new cast and I thought they were going to really make the movie suck, but I really enjoyed them! Especially Jill and Kirby. I really think Emma Roberts and Hayden Panneteire [or however you spell it lol] were great additions!
 
Saw Thor with my brother we both loved the movie and i got to say it makes the wait for next year's Avengers so much harder to deal with :D
 
While I was in Detroit, i saw "Jumping the broom" w/ Angela Bassett @ the behest of a girlfriend of mine. we went to some theatre in Grosse Pointe that wasnt there while I was living there before.

I had no idea what to expect & I'm not a fan of T.D. Jakes (I think he's a chauvanist pig & a religious bigot) but i AM a fan of Angela Bassett. After seeing it, I was reminded that Angela Bassett is truly high caliber actress & its SAD that she is overlooked by mainstream hollywood both for movie roles & recognition. Jumping the broom tells a good story, it doesnt move too slow or fast & its overall nicely done. Loretta Devine also turned in a great performance as well. Both she & Angela should be used in more films. Their talent is criminally overlooked.

I still wanna know WHY Angela Bassett wasnt offered (or turned down) the role of STORM in the X-men films. If ever there was PERFECT casting...that wouldve been an example.
 
speaking of Angela Bassett she was busy being Amanda Waller in the Green Lantern movie which wasn't bad but also wasn't great

Also saw Transformers - Dark Side of the Moon and that was the perfect summer movie, lots of action, good comedy, and the robots had some great acting at least (better then most of the people in it. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was so stiff in this movie one reviewer said she made Megan Fox look like Dame Judi Dench)

Also finally checked out X-men First Class which was good, if not strange. it was a great movie but the unfit in X-men continuity will only bother comic fans. Also who would have guess Kevin Bacon would make a great Shaw?
 
I saw 'The Muppets' today.

It was very cute! Of course my fav muppet is Miss Piggy ;)

Amy Adams was very cute as "Mary" & the overall movie had a cheery feel. There were a few chuckle inducing moments as well as a few cheesy moments (the moments where the human characters broke out into dramatic dance numbers to express their thought in a given scene lol) but the muppets were far more tame in this movie than they were in "Muppets take Manhattan" or even the classic 'Muppet Show' on TV.

Overall I'd say [again] very cute film. :nod:
 
Saw 50/50 a few weeks ago, really liked the whole feel of the movie, really funny, but still it almost brought a tear to my eyes at one point and i was really rooting for Levitt's character to pull through.
 
I saw Breaking Dawn. I've read all the books and Breaking Dawn is my least favourite of them all. I think the books are a lot better than the films but I've watched them all. I have to say that Breaking Dawn is my favourite of the films. The wedding was really good, I loved the humor at the start. They kept as close to the book as was possible, which I thought was good. I probably wont go and watch it again but I'll definately get the DVD.

I think its bad that we have to wait a whole year for part 2, they should have done what Harry Potter did and only leave it a few months!
 
I took myself to the movies last night as a treat to see "New Year's Eve". Apparently it's the follow up to "Valentine's Day", which I never saw. But to me, the film is fine as a stand alone.

It features an all star ensemble cast w/ some big names including Halle Berry, Sarah Jessica Parker, Michelle Pfieffer, Robert DeNiro, Hillary Swank, Ashton Kutcher, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges & many more along w/ some small supporting roles/cameos by ppl like Alyssa Milano.

I thought the film did a good job weaving a tapestry w/ the different individual stories against the backdrop of New Year's Eve in NYC.

Lots of cute moments, a few chuckles & some hear warming moments.
 
I know it's been out a while, but I just recently saw Thor. I really enjoyed it. I was skeptical that they would be able to pull off Asgard without it being just stupid, but I felt the writers and creative effects team did an outstanding job. It's visually stunning and there are some humorous moments as well as the god of Thunder learns what it is to be mortal. I'd see it again for sure.
 
Saw Hodejegerne or Headhunters in english, a norwegian movie it was pretty good.
It's a movie adaptation of a book by Jo Nesbo with the same title.

Nikolaj Coster-Waldau(Game Of Thrones Jaime Lannister) makes a good villain.
