Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
Saw the Hobbit. Entertaining. Not as good as the LOTRs, but still good and worth seeing.
The thing I hate about the hobbit was the characters and the kiddyness compared to the more adulty LOTR. But the thing I dislike about the whole series is the length (3-3:30 hours) and the large amounts of characters they expect you to remember (along with all the stories and backgrounds around characters)

Wait, Sam Jackson is in it? I wonder which role he's playing. At first I was mad they were going to remake it. But then I saw Spike's name attached and became intrigued. He even said the ending would be darker than the original.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
I really suggest everybody go see Django Unchained. Absolutely brilliant movie by Tarantino.
89% fresh rating so far on RT. Django Unchained - Rotten Tomatoes

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
life of pi is slow, but pretty good.
cloud atlas is dumb. it tries to be as confusing as inception, except the flashbacks/forwards are excessive and mostly pointless as the 6 stories are only very loosely connected. the george character is stupid good though. A+ on that, and the ending line is great too (same as the book). django looked good, i'll have to catch it. |

Saw Les Miserables.
Cried like a baby. If you can sit there for 2 1/2 hours and really pay attention, damn that movie is awesome.

I can't get past the singing,plus the review I read said the live singing sucked.According to the reviewer,he thought Jackman was not using his full voice and didnt sound that much better than Crowe

Saw Django
Wife had to cover her eyes a few times,the atrocities suffered by the slaves were too much for her in some parts,it is Tarantino after all Overall it was a pretty damn good movie,I could see Oscar nods for all 3 main characters

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
Not a just out in theaters movie, but I saw Warrior with Tom Hardy and Nick Nolte; Great movie. I recommend it to those wanting to see a good action flick.
