The Movie thread

[litio]

I've seen Iron Man 2 and it's really worth it. I was a but suspicious it would have a been a clone of the first, but it wasn't. The plot is good, there's humour and the special effects are good without being exaggerated. Thumbs up for Robert Downey Jr once more.

Only thirty times? Lit, you're a lightweight. :p

I've recently been getting into westerns, the craze triggered in me by the playing of Red Dead Redemption, although my enthusiasm took a hell of a knock when I went online and checked what the ending was, which turned out to suck arse in a major way.

I had a craze for the Rocky movies when I was a kid, plus Back to the Future and anything based on a Roald Dahl book.

Are you referring to how many times I've seen the Star Wars movies, by any chance? How many times did you see them Jim?

Somewhere between seventy and a hundred.

Ok, that's impressive. Can you imitate both Chewbacca and R2D2 noises as well? Darth Vader breath is way too easy...

[BigJim]

Afraid not, although I can do George W. Palpatine.

[litio]

Actually, a friend of mine was able to imitate Chewbacca in rather impressive manner, although it's was half his size and definitely less hairy.

[BigJim]

I could do a physical impression of him. Especially since my late growth spurt. lol

I just saw Inception...

Was pretty good movie and would recommend it to ppl that like movies where they have to guess whats going on...

Not that good to watch if you're sleepy tho...

[IrishLad]

I just watched 'Role Models' the other day. It's the funniest comedy I have seen in ages! I don't know any of the actors real names but it has Stifler from 'American Pie', Mclovin' from 'Superbad' and the bloke from 'I Love You, Man'!

That Mclovin' kid is a genius lol!

[jr976evil]

That black kid in it is bloody hilarious too who Seann William Scott mentors, can't remember his name tho

[IrishLad]

Oh yeah he's class! He's like an 9 year old Chris Rock! "You white? Then you Ben Affleck" That kid is a legend in the making!

Here's the scene, love it!

Just found this one too! "I will hit a child" "Let's dance Ben Affleck!" I'm in tears watching these!

I've watched Killers and Shrek 4 recently. Both are good if you want to see something mindless and vaguely funny. I preferred Killers to Shrek, although if you want something weirdly romantic go for Shrek.

[BigJim]

This new Karate Kid movie looks total fucking arse. How the hell is there supposed to be a romantic angle when they're pre-pubescent?

[Alphano]

I just watched "Valkyrie". It was worth watching, not hugely amazing, but pretty good.

It worked in Lolita.


I watched Inception the other day and thought it was awful. I also watched Cliffhanger on tv and it's still a classic. I hear it's currently being remade as well. Oh, an dI watched Man On Wire again last night. This is one of the best documentaries I've ever seen and anyone of you who hasn't seen it needs to see it!

[BigJim]

It worked in Lolita.

Meh, that was a crap and very depressing film. She wasn't pre-pubescent anywa, just underage. That's Dominique Swain I mean, I haven't seen any other adaptations.

[IrishTickle]

She's 12 in the original. Which just makes me feel icky thinking about it.

She may have been 12 in the original but that still doesn't mean pre-pubescent. Most women start puberty around 10-11 now after all. The rule of thumb is: if she has breasts she's hit puberty

[IrishTickle]

Ah, but that if she lost her breast to cancer, or a combine harvestor accident! There's always a loop hole!

Lol. Well I suspect by that age they'll look older than a teenager anyway... but who knows. I still get disturbed by under 16s wearing skirts above mid-thigh let alone anything else.
