ReZourceman Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Saw IV Beginnings very gorey. Worst one though. Apparently V is better so...yeah. Like....4/10. Maybes.
Roostophe Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Grave of the Fireflies This was so sad, but it was really good. I rather liked how it had a sad ending. It made me feel like I was actually fed up of there being a happy ending in almost every film. Although the damn commercial breaks meant the emotion couldn't flow enough for it to be fully enjoyed. If it wasn't for the ad breaks, I might have enjoyed it a lot more. 9/10
triforce_keeper Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 The song "Make A Man Out Of You" was better. Regardless of the fact that Donny Osmond did it. Mmmm, I'm undecided. It is a pretty good song
Happenstance Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Invaders From Mars (86) Brilliantly cheesy alien invasion remake. I always remember the shots with the fence leading over the hill from when I was a kid. 7/10
Chris the great Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Whats eating Gilbert Grape. I brill heart touching movie back in the day when Leo Dicapio was a fantastic actor. Depp and Juliette Lewis are in fine form also. 9/10 the book is increadable.
MadDog Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 The Lord of The Rings: The Fellowship of The Ring (Extended Edition) Enjoyable film, i started getting abit bored towards the end, because of the length of the film. But overall i liked it 8.5/10
nightwolf Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Saw Was watching this on and off, wasn't very impressed. I'm not really sure why considering to me there was more storyline than say saw 3! Maybe I was just after something else! 6/10 Red dragon Again watched this before. I love this movie, never thought I would when I first watched it, although you can't go wrong with lecter really. Interesting and enjoyable! 9/10
Dan_Dare Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 I actually liked Saw. Thought the sequels were bobbins though.

I may have to get my mits on it!
Slaggis Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Jumper is shit. Rachel Bilson is god. The action was alright, but Hayden needs to go to acting classes. It's nowhere near as bad as some people say it is. Hopefully the sequel will improve things, i.e have more Bilson in it.
ReZourceman Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Yeah I thought it was suprisingly good. Well not that suprising....Sam Jackson + Rachel Bilson. But yeah it was good...it was just fun and simple!
Hellfire Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Rachel Bilson is reason enough to watch it :P But I was disapointed, I wasn't expecting anything amazing, but still... And Hayden was actually quite good in ep3, in Jumper it's not that he was terrible, but his part was bland as hell
Paj! Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Am I only one who doesn't worship Rachel Bilson's face? I mean she's obviously more attractive than Mischa Barton (to compare two girls from the same show), but she has such an onion shaped head, which gives the optical illusion that her eyes are massive/far apart. Yeah. [/leaves]
Cube Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Rachel Bilson is god. The action was alright, but Hayden needs to go to acting classes. It's nowhere near as bad as some people say it is. Samuel L Jackson's acting was a lot worse than Hayden's in Jumper.
blender Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 I saw Saw last night and it was awesome (on one of the 4 channels UK). Saw 2 is on tonight at 10pm !. Love horror films that dont involve the occult. Would make a great game. e,g you are in a room, how to get out, type puzzle game... cut off leg!
Oxigen_Waste Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Hayden was actually quite good in ep3 Allow me to disagree. Ok, there, I disagreed. Seriously now. He was kinda ok in Shattered Glass, but other than that, he's a turd. And a big one, to boot. No you are not, I don't care for her at all. Make that three.
Mundi Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 We should make a group out of this.. Her (Rachel Bilson) face annoys me, I want to slap her more then I want to bang her.
Slaggis Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Saw 2 Sweet jesus, that was..horrific. That really got me in places. At the start, my hands were covering my mouth and I was like "Noooooo!!!". The twist at the end was pretty shocking too. I watched the first when it was on yesterday, but only caught the last 45 minutes of that. But jeez, some of it was pretty damn sickening. 5/10
triforce_keeper Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Saw 2 Horribleleeelelelelelelelellelryuickk Twist was great too. 6/10
killthenet Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 So, I just got back from the Surprise Film screening at the London Film Festival and what was the film they'd kept under wraps all this time?? The Wrestler The new film from Darren Aronofsky, the man behind Pi; Requiem For A Dream & The Fountain and the "comeback" film for Mickey Rourke, who has already been tipped for an Oscar for his performance. And if he gets one he'll definately deserve it. His portrayal of wrestler Randy "The Ram" Robinson is full of truth and heartache and there doesn't seem anyone more suited to play the role, as Rourke's facial features really show you the hard life that this character has lived. Aronofsky chooses to shoot the film like it is a documentary, just one that never features talking heads or speaking to the camera. All of the wrestling scenes are fantastically authentic and really capture the spirit of being part of the wrestling circuit. In the main supporting roles are Marissa Tomei who plays Pam, a stripper who befriends Randy, and Evan Rachel Wood who plays Randy's estranged daughter Stephanie. Evan Rachel Wood's performance is one of the only disappointing aspects of The Wrestler which is not to say that her acting is below par, it just doesn't fit well with the tone that the rest of the film sets. Regardless, everything else about the film is enthralling and the film really delves into how difficult life can be for a person when they have to brutalise their bodies every single night. There was a fairly interesting Q&A with Mickey Rourke & Darren Aronofsky after the film, but it was mostly annecdotes about the two meeting and didn't really bring any depths that the film didn't have. 9/10
