The Damned Posted September 8, 2007 Posted September 8, 2007 Pokemon: Mewtwo Strikes Back Ugh... even I have a hard time watching that. Subbed or otherwise. Quote
supremespleen Posted September 8, 2007 Author Posted September 8, 2007 Back to the Future movies have been great so far. I can't believe I've gone so long without seeing them. Watching part 3 tomorrow. Also watched Die Hard today. Talk about amazing. Lulz at Carl Winslow and Snape being major characters. As a sidenote, I rented Pan's Labyrinth, and it definitely was nowhere near as good as everyone made it out to be. Quote
227 Posted September 8, 2007 Posted September 8, 2007 If you liked Die Hard, you might enjoy the Mexico trilogy (El Mariachi/Desperado/Once Upon A Time In Mexico). I haven't seen El Mariachi yet, but the other two were great movies. And if revenge movies qualify as "fun" then I'd definitely recommend The Count of Monte Cristo. More specifically, the newer one with Jim Caviezel and Dagmara Dominczyk. Quote
I-n-j-i-n Posted September 8, 2007 Posted September 8, 2007 SUPERBAD.bootleg copy? Some movies are so good or such a good experience in the screen, it is totally worth it. Compare that to listening to teenage kids yelling "THAT IS GAY" in Spiderman 3 or Transformer showings. Even with Jackass 2 on the theaters, it was sorta exciting to see a whole slew of college kids whooping at every joke. Then there was Borat where the theater was actually filled with 40+ somethings gasping and choking at all the nude antics. Superbad is in the better category. Worth the lousy theater seating. Quote
Raziellink Posted September 8, 2007 Posted September 8, 2007 Page three, and nobody mentioned 300 yet? Shame on you! Quote
VampirePrincessKairi Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 Page three, and nobody mentioned 300 yet? Shame on you! Noone mentioned 300 because it was a really really really bad remake.The fighting scenes sucked and wolves and rhinos don't look like giant monsters from some other planet.The people who did the remake did a horrible job.Watch the original.It actually stays with the facts.It's called 300 Spartans.

KnockKnock Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 any cheech & chong any ernest (except the halloween one, that's scary) tenacious d: the complete masterworks both bill & ted movies the life aquatic with steve zissou Quote
VampirePrincessKairi Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 If you're into musicals then I would suggest watching Singin' In The Rain,Moulin Rouge,Sound of Music,Grease,Grease 2,Chicago,Rent,and The Wizard of Oz.Those were only a few selections of musicals.There are plenty more musicals I could name off that were good but I'd have to think of them for a moment.

Black Mage Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 I can't say I was impressed with 300...at all. It's was okay, but I think there could have been better character development. I'll need to check out that 300 Spartans, sometime. As for my recommendations, I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Judge Dred, Demolition Man, and the best of 'em... Fifth Element Quote
Solid Krono Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 And if revenge movies qualify as "fun" then I'd definitely recommend The Count of Monte Cristo. More specifically, the newer one with Jim Caviezel and Dagmara Dominczyk. I just saw this again the other day when I was laying around sick. Still holds up even on the 3rd or 4th watch. Quote
FiberGlassWater Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 Who likes Emilio Estivez..... wait.. WAIT.. keep reading. Me neither, hate the guy. But Young Guns is a sweet movie. I can't remember if YG2 was any good.. but get both just in case. I think I'm going to rent those tonight. Quote
VampirePrincessKairi Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 The Robo Cop series were pretty good movies to be 80's and 90's movies.A Beautiful Mind was a good movie.It starred Russel Crow.He also starred in Gladiator and other good movies.Then you could always choose to watch The Patriot starring Mel Gibson or perhaps you don't like Mel Gibson all that much and want to watch The Last of the Mohicans. Quote
Super-Duper Sombrero Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 Equilibrium is good. I'm sure you've already seen Advent Children, but it's still fun to watch. Pulp Fiction or Kill Bill are some good fun too. I thought Mission Impossible III was pretty good, much better than the second, less cornfusing than the first. Quote
Devyn Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 The Last Dragon Sho-nuff! Great movie. Kill me and reincarnate me in the 80's. Quote
VampirePrincessKairi Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 Love at First Bite was a good comedy.It was about Dracula getting kicked out of Romania by the government and he had to live in New York. If you're into dragon movies try the Dragon Heart series of movies.Perhaps you want a comedy about dragons though,George and the Dragon would be one to watch.And if you haven't saw the movie Eragon it too was good. Quote
Super-Duper Sombrero Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 And if you haven't saw the movie Eragon it too was good. I'll have to disagree and say the book was much better. Although it was hard to judge the movie without referencing the book. The movie left out more than too many events that I saw as character- and story- development. Quote

No-one cares. Because 300 is fucking epic. You don't watch 300 for a history lesson. Quote
VampirePrincessKairi Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 It doesn't matter about history lessons or not.What matters is that they did a terrible job in filming 300.When you are making a movie on something that really happened you aren't supposed to base it on imagination. With Eragon the movie was great based on the book.You can't expect everything you read in the book to be in the movie.If they were to have done that the movie would have been 4 to 5 hours long and would have been expensive to make.

Strati Posted September 14, 2007 Posted September 14, 2007 Eragon the movie sucked because they left so much of the book out of the movie and changed so much that it will now be virtually impossible to make a movie of Eldest without some major tweaking. Quote
227 Posted September 14, 2007 Posted September 14, 2007 When you are making a movie on something that really happened you aren't supposed to base it on imagination. Because we all remember how badly Titanic bombed at the box office. Quote
