Saw these flicks recently:

Pursuit of HappYness - Race was never brought up in this movie. I really, really like that. The movie isn' t bad, but it feels a tad slow at times. Overall it is a good movie, but I wouldn' t buy it. Were was DJ Jazzy Jeff in this movie?

Children of Men - I' ve heard a lot of people go into orgasms when describing how great this movie is. Well it' s really not that great. It' s OK at best. I never gave two shits about any of the characters. I was happy when Julian Moore got shot and suffered, as I' ve always wanted to see that bitch die. The story was boring. There were maybe two or three action scenes in this incredibly short movie, none of them being that intense. Then for no reason, the movie just ended. I guess they figured the audience wouldn' t tolerate much more.

Star Trek: The Motion Picture - Sucked

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan - Freakin' awesome!

Star Trek III: The Search for Spock - Good

Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home - Decent

Star Trek V: The Final Frontier - I refused to watch this one.

Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country - Good

Just saw Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theaters

This is a movie made exclusively for fans of the show. They make no attempt whatsoever to reach a new audience or attract new fans.

If you like the show, you' ll like the movie. If you don' t like the show, this isn' t going to change your mind.

If you' ve never seen the show, you won' t even get it.

For the fans, it' s fantastic.

It depends solely on how much you like the series.

If you don' t like AquaTeen, don' t bother. You seriously won' t understand most of the movie. The plot is so twisted and full of holes that it can barely call itself a movie.

The jokes are genuinely funny IF you like this particular brand of humor.

If you' re a first-timer to the AquaTeen universe I really wouldn' t reccomend starting with tthe movie. It would just leave you confused. There' s no character development AT ALL, and 80% of the jokes depend on knowledge from the series.

Hope that helps.


Anyway, I just finished watching Crank and it was brilliant. There needs to be a videogame with a plot like that movie.

S.W.A.T. - Blu-Ray

Best looking transfer i' ve seen yet. The movie itself is a bit meh, totally generic, but hey.. ..it has Michelle Rodriguez in it and she' s cool as fuck so i bought it.

Gone in 60 Seconds - Blu-Ray

Another great transfer with superb audio. I own it on DVD too but the Blu-Ray disk is worth buying.

Pearl Harbor - Blu-Ray

Girlfriend bought it for me. I hate Ben Affleck and Josh Hartnett is a little bitchy wuss. I' m not keen of the film and the transfer is a bit grainy.

Casino Royale - Blu-Ray

Best Bond film since A Licence to Kill, and best Bond since Timothy Dalton (oooooooh the controversy). I really like the movie and the transfer is flawless.

Swordfish - HD-DVD

One of my favourite movies. Not everybody likes it but i really like this kind of stuff. The audio and transfer as excellent but i needed to adjust my colour settings because they appeared off.

A Scanner Darkly - HD-DVD

Technologically brilliant film, awesome transfer (probably because it was digitally filmed) but i still don' t get the plot. There' s something strangely alluring about a topless, cell shaded Winona Rider. I need to consult my doctor to see if that' s normal.

Woody Harrelson fucking rocks!

Mission Impossible - HD-DVD

Great movie, great transfer, some of the special effects look particulary dated in HD.

The new turtles movie,was good 7/10.

Sure wasn' t what I hoped for but they aim at a younger audience while still gi9ving us old fans some candy.

The movie was like a animated cartoonish movie but with some more " dark" feeling over it.

Well you asked for it. Dalton was rubbish. Inexcusably rubbish. And Brosnan was good, just some of the films he was in were rubbish. But yeah it' s an awesome film, and I don' t know if I prefer DC to Roger Moore or not. I guess time will tell. Sean was the man

Edit: I watched Predator 2 last night and it' s brilliant. Danny Glover is hard as nails, and it also has Gary Busey and Bill Paxton. But then you' ve all seen it so you all know how good it is.

Yeah, you would say that. You' re Scottish!

Brosnan was a bitch. Too sophisticated, aloof and not gritty enough.

Dalton was sleazy and ' A License To Kill' was awesome, ...and since Craig is more down to earth and sleazy like Dalton, and so i figure he' s a good choice for Bond.

?????

Brosnan spent more time nibbling on the ladies than being a serious James Bond.

Casino Royale
My favorite bond flick since " On Her Majesty' s Secret Service" .

Stranger Than Fiction
Will Ferrel playing in a serious movie with some funny bits. Good movie, but the ending sucked, (SPOILER) The freaking author gimped out & didn' t kill him for the sake of a good book. The fact that they didn' t kill his character in the end made for just a mediocre ending for the movie. If they hadn' t copped out with the heartwarming ending, it would have been an awesome movie.

I saw the same flick this weekend. The whole time I was thinking, " Jim Carrey should have done this movie."

Borat - I watched this and it was half funny, half boring. And the funny stuff wasn' t absolutely hilarious or anything even close to that. The naked man-wrestling was gross and lasted about 90 minutes too long. 13 year olds will laugh their asses off at that scene, though " Ha ha OMG loooook his balls are on his face OMG!!!!"

Shooter - The one with Mark Wahlberg in it. Tries to be clever with its overall message and dialogue, but ultimately falls back into the cheesy action with hot female interest catagory. It has its place, heh.

Lady Vengence - Part of the vengence trilogy, I think all of them are masterpieces. Pretty slow movies, but the pacing, story, style, humour, characters and action are all second to none, imo! I recommend Oldboy as well.

Next for me are 300, Grindhouse and Transformers!

I havn' ' t seen the other two in the rilogy, but someone told me today I should never have given a loan of Oldboy to Cho Seung-hui

It' s a masterpiece though.

I saw Dead Silence... crappiest " horror" movie I' ve seen in a while, although at least the ending was surprising.

Just watched Meet The Robinsons on my uncle' s HD TV last night. It is a really predictable movie. About halfway through and we had already figured out how it was going to end. It was still a pretty okay movie though, but I am just glad we all got to see it for free.

Just watched Eragon, it' s not bad and considering the books were written by a 14 or 15 year old, it holds up quite well, plus even though there are battle scenes in it they are quite child friendly.

Did anyone in the States get to see " The Marine" ? My other half is mad crazy on that Cena bloke and wants to know if it is worth importing it?

Also Nitro you are wrong about Dalton, he was the most wooden bond ever, best bonds, were David Niven and Peter Sellars.
