Film Thread

I know, right? Bill Nighy is terrifying.

I liked the raddlesnake guy. Man, I want to watch that movie again, even if it's semi-envromentalist.
I still refuse to watch Happy Feet again. The ending was...just...ugh.

The notion of dancing penguins just seems so silly to me. #scrooge

I think I remember us talking about Who framed Roger Rabbit a while back. So...

She's not bad; she's just drawn that way. []

That film is just so bizarre. Not because of the cartoon crossover but because of how dark the surrounding material is. I like it though. I actually think the animation is really good.

Best movie scene ever, bar none.

NSFW.

If I had to nominate a scene for best scene it would probably be a tie between these two.



or maybe something from Gorillas in the Mist, but I am too tired and haven't seen that movie in a while so I've forgotten the best scenes.

Inigo FTW

After the initial reaction of "What the effing eff?" I was washed away by all of my sads.

I still hate that movie. I'm way too close to addiction and mental illness to get any jollies out of that film.
I grew up with Who Framed Roger Rabbit, I remember thinking what a weird movie it was. I love it still. (I've got 'Why Don't You Do Right' on my iPod. Carolina Chocolate Drops FTW.)

Not sure if this thread is for television shows too, but I am watching Monkey and I am loving it. Sandy is so cool. If I were Sandy I would push Tripitaka off a cliff because he is such a whiny little child.

I just finished watching The Plague Dogs tonight. Blimey, what a grim and harrowing film. A great one, though.

Is that like Reservoir Dogs? []

No, although there is a reservoir scene. There's swimming, anyway. Think Watership Down and you're in the right area. The original book was written by the same guy, actually.

So, I just watched "Singin in the Rain."

It was pretty good. I liked "The Music Man" better, but this one had some great songs. "Make 'Em Laugh" cracked me up through the whole thing, and the one with the French guy was hysterical. The ending part was pretty funny too.

Also, I just learned the secret of Battlestar Galactica. Mind=blown.

Known that for months, Ziggs. Thanks anyway.


Just watched "High Society" with Bing Crosby, Louis Armstrong, and Frank Sinatra. Surprisingly enough, it STILL wasn't as good as the music man.

The all-star cast wasn't really used to it's full potential, I feel.

Well, if you want to see a good movie with Sinatra, watch "From Here to Eternity."

Actually, to be perfectly honest, Sinatra isn't really suitable for the big screen. He's a badass performer, but not such a great actor. Or, dancer.

I don't know about that. He won an Oscar for his performance in "From Here to Eternity," and that was after he had been in other films for no other reason than his heartthrob status.

I can't be certain, as I've never really watched it, but he just doesn't seem as entertaining as Gene Kelly, or Robert Preston. They both can dance, and move, and sing. Sinatra is a better singer than either of them, but he's very.... Static.

He comes pretty close though.

Well, compared to me or you, yes, but compared to Kelly he's like a statue. (Im exaggerating)

Im not complaining, really. Sinatra is great at what he does. But Sinatra never was, and never tried to be, a dancer. Not on the same level as Kelly or Donald O'Connor, anyway.

Phonebooth.
That movie was mind blowing, if not unconfortably intence for me at certen moments.
That was NOT the kind of caller I was expecting.

Oh gosh, Pineapple Express. The effects were nothing special but this movie is hilarious. I wish James Franco was my drug dealer.
