[QUOTE=mredskins;1002613]Saw the sushi DOC pretty good. Amazing how a man can be so devoted to his craft.


Also saw Evil Dead; really a great horror flick. A must see for any horror film buff. Also see it in the theater the audio is amazing and gets your heart pounding![/QUOTE]

Is that a remake or the Bruce Cambell version?

Im not sure if this has been mentioned yet but i want to say 21 Jump Street is defintely worth checking out. It looks like and sounded like pure crap but I was talked into watching it a couple months ago by someone who had seen it before and was really surprised with how good it was.

Very funny and entertaining movie.

Oh yes it was one of my favorites a year ago. Jonah hill and ice cube were hysterical.

Anyone seen the 2 Guns trailer? Looks good

Good, I'm glad oblivion was good. I'm usually a bit iffy with Tom cruise flicks anymore, after the whole Oprahs couch incident...

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
 

I re watched django the other day. I forget how great it was.

I'd say Tarantinos best films are:
1 pulp fiction
2 Django
3 kill bill
4 reservoir dogs
5 inglorious bastards
6 Jackie brown

I watched Django; zzzzzzzzz......

Seriously boring.

i'm a django fan, not like an all time favorite, but it was solid. a bit slow at times, but not bad.

Did you watch the whole movie?

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
 

[quote=mooby;1004638]Did you watch the whole movie?[/quote]

yup.

I am sure it is a good movie to a lot of folks me personally not my cup of tea.

I am not a fan of any movie set in that era of time. So it had to over come that for me as well.

I am more a Coen brothers fan then a Quentin fan now a days. Shoot I even liked True Grit.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
 

i didn't think django was all that amazing either. i've actually seen the originals too, so i don't know if that changed anything while I watched the remake.

[url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060315/]Django (1966) - IMDb[/url]

1966. one of MANY spaghetti westerns. (fistful of dollar, once upon a time in the west, good bad ugly django etc).

despite the award, it's not far off of the 1960's westerns. I guess a lot of people just don't remember them or haven't seen them.

I think once upon a time in the west is a much better movie overall.

Add me to the Django "meh" crowd... pacing was a huge issue for me. Django was Tarantino's first film without his regular editor (who died a few years back, while hiking). I think it showed. Loved Waltz's performance, however.

Sometimes a movie is so hyped it can never live up to the hype. I went in thinking this was going to be awesome and it fell flat for me.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
 

Saw Oblivion last Saturday.
Very good movie.
Good sci-fi stuff.
His female British counterpart is a total babeorama.

Interesting. I completely forgot that his editor died. I felt that the editing wasn't an issue, a lot of movies that run for over 2 hours have their slow parts. It's a movie, it's an opinion.

Agree with you. Very good movie. A bit derrivative of other sci-fi movies, but it didnt bother me until the very end. Still Cruise delivered an epic line to make it worth it.

I have been wanting to see it. Same director did Blue Valentine; that is a powerful movie; phew.

Nope, haven't seen it, but heard good things about it. If you saw Drive with Ryan Gosling theres a movie coming out directed by the guy who did Drive and stars Gosling called Only God Forgives. Supposed to be one of the big hits this year.

Just watched Pain and Gain. It wasn't great but wasn't horrible either and on a plus side, u see a whole lot of TNA.

^ It looked like a typical michael bay (douchebag) film.

[QUOTE=CultBrennan59;1006680]^ It looked like a typical michael bay (douchebag) film.[/QUOTE]

If u like a bunch of action it's not bad. Is it a great movie? No. Like I said I enjoyed the females in it. Lol. Rock was pretty funny in it. Overall I'd give it a C

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
 

I just saw Pain and Gain as well, and it's safe to say I'm definitely not a big fan of it. The fact that it's based off a true story is sad. It had its' moments but those are few and far between. I should've waited until it hit Redbox instead.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
 

i just saw it too, i liked it.

i'm not sure what you guys were expecting, but it was right on par for me.

Well the trailer made me think it was like a comedy/action, but I felt that the three main characters were stupid, the kidnappee was a jerk, and there really wasn't anybody to root for. It felt like it had no direction, like it couldn't make up it's mind as to whether it wanted to be an action or a comedy, and the grisly parts towards the end felt out of place. And I didn't like the multiple references towards its being a true story, they felt like reminders that crazy asshats like the protagonists really exist out there. I guess if you're not expecting anything out of that movie, it's worth seeing, but if you expect comedy or action it's disappointing.

I thought Django was pretty damn good,I thought all 3 performances by the lead actors were Oscar worthy.The only problem I had with the editing was in one part of the movie a scence seemed like it skipped a sequence,I thought the movie messed up when I saw it in the theatre but the dvd did the same thing.I think it was somewhere in the ku klux clan scenes

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
 

oblivion is only okay. not bad, but it's a recycled plot. I was expecting a bit more.

The commercials made me think it was a comedy as well but it really isn't. they also pushed the whole "American dream " thing too much but like I said if u like some good action scenes, boobs and ass, and a crazy story then u will like it. I will say I didn't think marky mark was on his best in this film.

On a side note, they really need to stop making the Fast and furious. It's beyond played out now

And I'm not sure if this rumor is true or not but I heard there will be a new TMNT in 2014, Megan fox as April O'Neil.
