That Film You Slept Through Lately, What Was It?

That spanish chick was juicy, and the ending was great. Still odd though.

And you do realize Alan Moore is still alive don't you?

THREEEEEEEEEEEEESOME! But yeah, I agree with what you are saying about the whole movie though. The beginning with the two of them at the pool... I'll stop that there.

That was the joke, yeah. Sorry, I've been listening to Charles Barkley for far too long.

EDIT: Forgot another one... and it was with Robert again.

The Deer Hunter (1978 ) starring Robert DeNiro, Christopher Walken, Meryl Streep

Walken's best and most real performance in my opinion. Glad he got the Oscar for that role.
Peace.

No rly, no. By itself in its own medium its alright, but this movie sucked in my opinion. Everything about it just raped the original material from the graphic novel. Alan Moore must have been rolling in his grave.

I view the movie as something seperate. It's like the X-men movies, seperate universes and such.

Ah cool, cool. Yeah, there decent by their own right but looking at the material it was adapted from, the movies are pretty much utter crap.

And I find X-Men 2 to be very overrated.
Peace.

Since when do comic book movies actully stick to the orignal story they come from?
After Saw III I watch The People Under the Stairs, I love that movie to no end.

The Spider-Man films to a good degree? Sin City?
Peace.

I'll agree on Sin City but I'm not too good wit' the Spider-man movies.

I thought Spider-Man kept in a respectable touch with the comics myself, although there were some changes (Mary Jane and not Gwen Stacy on the George Washington Bridge, webshooters, etc...).
Peace.

X-2 is the best of the three, hands down. The first is not all that great.

I recently saw Cromwell, starring the first Dumbledore and Alec Guinness.

I came away from the film with the knowledge that Cromwell was basically Darth Vader, and thoroughly enjoyed busting up parties.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (or whatever)

Gore was good, but there was so much of it, I got to the point where I was actually LAUGHING at it. The only time I did my trademark "ahaha AWESOME" was when that cow was hit by a car in the beginning.

There just wasn't enough chainsaw, also Leatherface isn't the size of a damn wrestler last I checked. I liked the remake of original Chainsaw better.

Frank Herbert's Dune.

Chani's got a nice rack.

American Beauty (1999) starring Kevin Spacey, Annette Bening, Mena Suavri
Hollywoodland (2006) starring Ben Affleck, Diane Lane, Adrien Brody
LA Confidential (1997) starring Kevin Spacey, Russell Crowe, Guy Pearce
Singin' in the Rain (1952) starring Gene Kelly, Donald O'Connor, Debbie Reynolds

EDIT: Two things - Pearce's mouth scares the hell out of me and Diane Lane, in no real surprise, is still very much fine.
Peace.

The Hulk

Barnyard, Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, and Employee of the Month.

American Beauty... again
The Ballad of Jack and Rose (2005) starring Daniel Day-Lewis, Camille Belle, Catherine Keener
Batman Returns (1992) starring Michael Keaton, Danny DeVito, Michelle Pfhiffer
Maverick (1994) starring Mel Gibson, Jodie Foster, James Garner
What's New, Pussycat? (1965) starting Peter O'Toole, Peter Sellers, Woody Allen.
Peace.

End of Days

The Blues Brothers

The Triplets of Belleville. With my freind. He liked it, he liked it.

Is that the one with the go-kart race at the end? Because that movie was all kinds of bananas.

I've seen the end of the film Money, although I don't remember that much of it, but I don't think there was a go-kart race at the end there. But yeah, the movie is nuts like that and Romy Schneider was fine as well.

The Departed (2006) starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Mark Wahlberg
Gone With the Wind (1939) starring Viven Leigh, Clark Gable, Leslie Howard
Patton (1970) starring George C. Scott, Karl Malden, Michael Bates

The only Best Picture nominee I see today and it wins. That's something else.

EDIT: The script from The Departed was pretty good (it won Best Adapted Screenplay) but there was one line between DiCaprio and Anthony Anderson that I really liked in the beginning;

"You're a black man in Boston. You don't need any help from me to be completely f***ed." That had me dying.
Peace.
