gaggle64 Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 (edited) Avatar This is the cinema version of pub food - greasy, unhealthy and not even very flavorsome and yet you're still happy to chow down. It's a big sweaty sci-fi movie sporting a cat-faced Ripley, smurf sex and exploding super-coptors but doesn't really have any decent ideas to really make it stand out. Not bad but a bit over-long. Very much Titanic's spiritual successor. Cameron's getting flabby. Edited December 23, 2009 by gaggle64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxigen_Waste Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Ahhh I love that film! The Rescuers are awesome and this was a great sequel to the original film. =D *really needs to find it with Dutch subtitles* Yay, I love it too. One of my fav disney movies! But it's a very mediocre film, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chairdriver Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Yay, I love it too. One of my fav disney movies!But it's a very mediocre film, lol. Yeah, didn't even have the darkness of the first Rescuers film. Madam Medusa scared me, back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Avatar in 3D Absolutely beautiful. A cinema experience that I thoroughly enjoyed. My eyes were so often glazed with wonderment. Also my first ever 3D film, so that helped. The story is fairly predictable and there's nothing subtle about the messages or the ''metaphor'' in this film. That's not to say I didn't like the story, it just felt like a reworking of another sci fi. Good characters for the most part, I may have mentioned this before...I LOVE SAM WORTHINGTON, heh. But the main villain is just the worst villain in cinema history (probably an overstatement, but it'd be a fun discussion :P). 7/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eenuh Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Yay, I love it too. One of my fav disney movies!But it's a very mediocre film, lol. Even if it's mediocre, it's still great to me. =D Plus I just love Disney films haha. My secret dream was to one day get to work in the Disney Studios, but that's never going to happen. =P Yeah, didn't even have the darkness of the first Rescuers film. Madam Medusa scared me, back in the day. Ah the first was great too. I watched it so many times. We even had an audio tape of the film which we would listen to again and again and again. And yeah the film did scare us back in the day when we were little. It was all so dark and gloomy, and the part where Penny has to retrieve the diamond is just scary haha.

Haha okay, let me know when you're starting with this masterful plan! And Flink can also make us tea/cocktails, cook us dinner, wash and iron our clothes... He'd be our own personal maid. And my sex slave of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cube Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 It's a Wonderful Life (1946) Blu-Ray (Colour Version) It's a nice film, and that's all I have to say (it's not really my kind of film). Although the picture was very clear and the colourisation was done remarkably well (if it didn't mention it on the box then I would probably never have realised that it was filmed in black & white).

Yeah Die Hard is better and set around Christmas too. I don't know why I associate the second one as being more Christmassy. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Molly Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Are you joking? Wind your neck back in Jamieson! It's the snow, god daaaaamnit. What's wrong with colour? Nothing wrong with colour! But it's a film that was made in 1946, to me it feels more authentic in black and white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eenuh Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I think Home Alone 1 & 2 are typical Christmas films. I got them from Jim last year as a Christmas present (we watched them of course) and I think he'll want to watch them again this year. Some sort of weird Christmas tradition. =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be our Christmas tradition. Along with the lasagna we made last year. My favourite Christmas films are: Home Alone One and Two Jingle All The Way (Fuck yeah) ELF! Die Hard (the first two in particular) Love Actually and possibly Notting Hill. There's so many more, though. But these are a start. I love Love Actually. Probably one of my secret favourite films.
