Movies - good, bad, old, new

I was kinda bored so i figured i'd make a movie topic.....i know we've had teh occasional topic about a specific movie, but this is more general.

Talk about movies, ones u like, onces u dislikes, ones u saw recently, or want to see, etc...

I just downloaded The Life Aquatic today. it wasn't too bad. not as funny as i expected though. it focused quite a bit on stuff like friendship, father/son relationships and the like, but it still managed to be funny in the process.

i still wanna watch A series of unfortunate events, and i've heard good things about The Aviator. but the movie im really looking forward to is Hitch. it seems really funny.

so, talk, discuss, exchange opinions...now!

Life Aquatic is funny when you're drunk. I am told it's hysterical if you're rockin' the ganga.

Anyway.. Empire Strikes Back kicks ass.

As does Army of Darkness.

i wanna watch coach carter, meet the fockers, thats about it currently...

edit: also napoleon dynamite, i heard it wasn't good.. but it looks hilarious

Ben-Hur. PURE classic.

Im a trilogy kinda guy. Star Wars, LOTR, and technically the Matrix, although I only liked the first one.

Favorite of all time: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

If I had Al Quida connections I'd get them to blow up the Academy with dirty bombs if Eternal Sunshine doesn't win Best Picture 2004.

Well for now I got Life Aquatic and Ray on my computer that I still haven't watched. I'll get to the sometime. I'm not even gonna get Aviator since DiCaprio won Golden Globe instead of Jim Carrey. DiCaprio was probably sucking those guys off. Carrey in Eternal Sunshine > all

I need to see Starwars, and Fantastic four(even if its not coming out this year), and Charlie and the Chocolate factory

Oh ya, worst of all time: tie between Garfield and Van Helsing

i say van hellsing, i had to watch that shit big screen black and white for like hours...... man it really kiled my vision.. n storyline is pretty bull shit too.

Lord of the Rings, best movies ever.

I am also a big fan of Interview with the vampire.

A few weeks ago I saw two Korean movies that I really liked: Oldboy (nice and violent) and Sex is Zero (extremely funny, it's like the Korean version of American Pie).

I'm also into the Star Wars movies, I think they should make more. And the Jurassic Park trilogy was great. Especially because I used to be a dino freak when I was a little boy. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I recently saw Musa - brilliant Korean movie, although it goes for 3+ hours, so make sure you use the bathroom first.

Time Machine. the one with guy pierce. probably top 3 worst movies i've ever seen.

Pulp Fiction would be one of my favourite movies, and there are some more, but i can't think of them at this time, heh.

no one wants to see spoungebob? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

mut have you realized that your posts usually is negative?

the LOTR trilogy kicks ass, american history x is a great movie, donnie darko is cool to. the matrix trilogy is good to, tho the first one is much better than 2nd and 3rd. garfield is funny as hell i dont think its supposed to be like movie of the year, va nhelsing sucks tho i couldnt watch all of it.

Agreed.

Tom Cruise has done some really good movies in the past couple of years. Of note, Minority Report, The Last Samurai, and Collateral.
