supervike Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Modern military in a horror movie? http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1809847903/video/11713995 You've got my attention, guys. Yes yes! Me too...that looks very good. GI Joe looks surprisingly interesting as well...I'll do without the Giant robots most likely though.....

Malebolgia Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 I received the silent Call of Cthulhu movie a couple of weeks ago and I must say it is really cool if 20's Cthulhu stuff is your thing. Last Friday me and my mates watched it before our session of Call of Cthulhu RPG. Excellent stuff to get warmed up. It's really cool if you consider it is mostly a fanmade movie with limited resources. This meant they had to make some very creative choices to get some parts on the screen and the end result is really cool. Don't expect top actors or today's computer effects but mostly oldskool cinematography. Link: http://www.cthulhulives.org/cocmovie/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supervike Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 I totally agree. The film is downright fun! I watched it at Gencon a few years back...(although they had problems with the DVD player, and we never got to see the end) I've since gotten it and finished it. The 'behind the scenes' stuff is excellent as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterdita Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 Coraline Saw this last night. WOW. What a great creepy movie! The animation and miniature puppets were fantastic! Colors were hypnotic and the story was very cute. Like I said it was pretty creepy, I'm not sure how I would feel about taking a child to the film but that beeing said it is rated PG. I saw it in 3D and now officially hate 3D movies. I can't ever seem to focus my eyes or lean at an angle(not to mention the $12.50 admmision). So I'd thumbs down the 3D, but two thumbs up the movie. If you like Tim Burtons animated movies, you should enjoy this. If nothing else, it's a visually gorgeous film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted February 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 The first one was mindless fun. This one looks to be in the same venue .. heh.

demonherald Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 The first one bordered on ridiculous but was great fun and this one looks to go beyond ridiculous but I'm sure still fun.. Jason statham definitely seems to be becoming our only action hero over here. I saw transporter 3 bit back and it was mindless fun as always .....

Nathan Caroland Posted February 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 How is Statham accepted over there btw? I know some actors make it on one side of the pond and not the other, but here in the US he seems to be going over rather well. I've more or less liked all of his films though I never bothered to go see that D&D one he put out a bit back, just knew that was going to suck and didn't want to be bothered with it. Another one you would expect to see more out of and moving into those roles that are being vacated these days would be Vin Diesel, but he seems to be going no where at the moment after seeing that pathetic movie Babylon AD. Might be redeeming in Fast and Furious 4 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be redeeming in Fast and Furious 4 though. For Statham, he plays the hard driving, action hero well, but i think he's getting typecast, he's played the exact same character in about 9 movies, and the movie he did that was fantasy, well, it was a Uwe Boll movie so it really doesn't count. For Vin, I think it all comes down to direction and his character, while Babylon AD wasn't spectacular, it was a semi-decent sci-fi flick (please note *I actually liked Rollerball (remake) as an action flick*) I think the one that didn't really fit and kind of hurt him was the disney movie "The Pacifier" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malebolgia Posted February 22, 2009 Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Okay, this looks like loads of fun! Thanks for the trailer Nathan...I will surely see this one with the lads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterdita Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Yeah, He's played the same type character in every movie. It's getting kinda old. I like him, and action movies but, lets try and be a bit more creative. But at the end of the day, fast cars, big guns and girls in bikinis will entertain me...

Peterdita Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 King of Kong: Fistfull of Quarters 2007 Ever wonder who holds the all time high score for Donkey Kong? Well, its debatable. Explore the drama and politics involded in crowning the "King of Kong" in this suprisingly well produced documentary. I never had any idea such a controversy like this existed. Watch as Steve Wiebe attempts to validate himself as the champ in tight knit group of doubters that include D-bag of the classic video game scene Billy Mitchell. It's a great documentary that I got frustrated watching at times but completely enjoyed.

Brushmistress Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 Hey all - has anyone else seen Watchmen yet? I caught it last night and thought it was excellent, and I just wanted to gauge what others thought of it (especially people who haven't read the comics).

Xenon_Wulf Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Seen it but read the comics, so I'll wait until others post before saying anything which might require me to post stuff under spoiler tags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supervike Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 My wife and I saw it last week. She had never read the comic, and liked it so much I had to dig my copy out to let her read it. I like it very much as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goblyn13 Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 I saw it on opening day, and have read the comic a few times. Was very well done and didn't feel like it was 3 hours long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrEvilmonki Posted March 17, 2009 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 I saw acthmen today. Thought it was good but in the end it didn't grip me. I would give it 7/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan Caroland Posted December 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2009 Went and saw Sherlock Holmes the other day ... quite good! I like the fact that its its own story but at the same time setup for another in the line which I'm fairly sure they'll do considering the reviews and interest in the show. Good stuff. Also got to watch 2012. Plot holes bigger than any, but I'll be damned if I didn't enjoy it for the pure eye candy that it was with the destruction of cities, buildings, continents .. you name it. All implausible as hell (love dodging buildings and mountains with airplanes) but it was visually enjoyable. And Gamer, got around to watching that. Lot of big names in it. Could have done soooooo much better IMO and all that 'Social' stuff could have done without on the gratuitous T&A stuff. And the fat bastard controling the chick ... ::shiver::: Nasty. And while I expect this will be mindless, sort of looking forward to it. [ame] [/ame] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterdita Posted December 31, 2009 Report Share Posted December 31, 2009 Sitting at work at 6:17 am all alone, its all quiet, watched the trailer and sure as hell wasn't expecting the spider zombie grandma! lol, I started cracking up! I'll check that out for sure. Been meaning to see Gamer as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breten Posted January 4, 2010 Report Share Posted January 4, 2010 The Red Band Trailer has some genuinely creepiness to it. I kind of want to see it, though it looks a bit mediocre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
