Posted August 21, 2009 I'm looking for that David Bowie song right now! Just in case you didn't find it, it was Cat People. Dan, the comparison with Watchmen was to do with the soundtrack, and how putting songs in scenes can work or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 21, 2009 I love that it has a perfect score from everyone *claps* Oxigen's not allowed to come and ruin it Iron Man Great action film. ReZ, it does have all kinds of awesome and I can see why you rave about it, so much better than other comic films. The effects are amazing! Robert Downey Jr does have an alluring charm that is so watchable and his wit shone through the script. In the cave they would have seen him put on the suit WAY sooner, that was annoying. Also when he did his first fly over the enemy camp he could have blown them all up, but he just didn't. Also far too obvious that the big guy was the baddie. Very Good/10 Ah, it wasn't really a twist that he was the bad guy tbf. Did you watch after the credits? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 21, 2009 Gotta ask: who the fuck compares Inglourious Basterds to Watchmen? Mental. Me. IB's soundtrack works. Ridiculously well. Bolstered my cinematic experience. Watchmen's soundtrack killed the already mediorce film. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 21, 2009 The 25 minute screening of Avatar was AMAZING! REVOLUTIONARY! The CG was near perfection, the story and action was definately there, and the 3-D was so damn amazing, I felt like I was literally looking out of a window. Don't Doubt James Cameron, he is GOD!

Posted August 21, 2009 (edited) G.I Joe Haha. Fucking terrible. As soon as it began, I knew it would be. It looked like it had a budget of about a quid. Half the time the effects looked so fake, it was actually laughable. Secondly, the dialogue has to be some of the worst in film. Ever. At one point the woman held a gun up and told a woman to get out a lift before saying "Get out!! Hey, nice shoes". FUCK OFF. 2 Edited August 21, 2009 by Slaggis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FUCK OFF. 2 Haven't seen it but I imagined it to be exactly as you described - they really did kill G.I. Joe, it was fucking awesome back in the day. Nothing will ever beat the original movie's opening for me - so campy yet awesome! Man I loved the 80s. The last film I saw: The Blues Brothers I hadn't seen it for a very long time and hence, remembered very little of it and I'm surprised that that was the case. One of the best films ever made. John Belushi is a legend and I love the all-star cast. The bit with Ray Charles performing 'Shake a Tail Feather' is one of my favourite movie moments ever. Period. If you've not watched it, make sure you do, it's such a feel good, yet hilarious and funky film. 11/10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 22, 2009 After ReZs sing along Facebook status, I decided to watch Labyrinth. I'm not even going to attempt to rate it with any sort of objectivity. It's my favourite film ever and I don't care who knows it. It's a massive shame that they don't use puppets often nowerdays, they have so much charm. I don't know if it was just well acted or whether David Bowie really did enjoy making it, because it certainly looked that way. Plus the young Jennifer Connely is lovely to look at (not in that way you pervs, she was 15). Turborad-Bowiebulge/10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If my wife had asked me "Who is John Candy?" I would have laid all kinds of smackdown on her rawhide. And yes the Blues Brothers is awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 22, 2009 Aha, funny you all talk about Labyrinth. I decided to watch it late last night. Labyrinth It's a fantastic movie, I really enjoyed it. My mate loves this movie and he tried getting me to watch it and I'm glad he did. For some reason, I liked this song, lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 22, 2009 Rocky 2 - good follow up. Could of had been merged with the first to make a three hour epic and it would of still won an Oscar methinks. 9/10 Rocky 3 - entertaining. 7/10 Rocky 4 - too many montages and cheesy moments. 3/10 Rocky 5 - watchable but it's just a poor story. 4/10 Rocky Balboa - seen this one before and loved it, but I didn't like the way the figt was filmed - felt like I was watching Rocky not being Rocky in action. Excellent film to finish the series with. 8/10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 22, 2009 I went to see Inglourious Basterds yesterday, got two hours in (right up to the big climax!) and the bulb broke in the projector. How incredibly annoying! We got a full refund and some free tickets though. Never mind, I'm going to see it again next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(I can't remember, obviously it was that bad!) Yeah, Hilary Wank is in it. It's like a high budget B-movie. In that respect it is kind of entertaining.
