Blade Trinity

How awfull can a good story can turn to be after a sequel(and the work of Benicio del Toro was great, but this third movie was...well...not exactly what someone else would wait)

Looney Tunes Back in Action:

How many times does WB want to keep making these kind of movies with the characters?

The movie was AWFUL! Plus, it is incredible that a movie made in the 2000s doesn't look as "realistic" as Who Framed Roger Rabbit did back then. I mean, if you look at WFRR today you'll still be amazed.

Besides, WB should realize that their Looney Tunes characters are "lunatics"!!! Meaning, they can't expect at this time of the decade to give them the persoanlities they never had.


They:

By the reviews, I thought it was going to be worse than it is.

I've seen much, much worse horror movies.

Mystic Pizza - after seeing this I always want to go to Conneticut and to eat pizza, though the pizza is more feasible within my budget than trekking out to Mystic, Conneticut. This is my favorite Julia Roberts movie, btw.

Oz: Yeah, but, you know, since the best jazz is improvisational, we'd be going off in all directions, banging into floats... scary.

Dirty Sci-Fi

Post by creid »

I thought the first major dirty sci-fi or disuptopia future movie was Metropolis by Fritz Lang in 1927. It is a German Silent movie and it remarkably cutting edge from a cinema standpoint and hopelessly dated from a social-policital point of view. (The early scenes of the machines and workers are quite extraordinary.)

It has gone PD so if you pick a copy for minimal $$$s but you subject to bad to awful DVD quality. Kino released a quality version but is will cost over $20.

Otherwise, I am watching Casablanca. Sigh...what a great movie...

Amadeus

Kind of sad that he always admired and trusted in Salieri, and Salieri itself was only trying to destroy Mozart :cry:

But hey, he had that annoying laugh...so I understand Salieri :P :lol:

The Notebook.Very sweet movie altough the ending was stupid and poorly made but I guess it isn't the flimmakers fault becauase it's an original novel by Nicolas Sparks. I'll give it an 8.5/10

Spoilers Ahead. WARNING: If you haven't seen the movie, The Notebook and want to, Don't read the bottom half of this post!


I know I sound crude when I say it but I thought Lon(Alli other love intrest and fiance) was hot. Still,I can see why she went to Noah. Maybe the reason she left him for Noah was because she wanted me to have him all to myself.

What? I'm kidding. I'm underage and I wasn't even around in the 40's.

In response to the notebook comment:

It's because "your first love never dies." It never does, seriously. I understand why she made her decision! She dated another guy because she thought Noah forgot about her..

Read the book, it's a lot better than the movie. :)

Bride and Prejudice (It was really cute) My b/f picked it up for me incase I felt like I needed a brake this weekend. Although I expected it to be a bit more funny it was good. Bend like Beckham which was directed by the same director was a lot better.But thats just me :) .

I watched Bride and Prejudice with my asian student union in my school, didn't really like it that much. The girl was pretty though!

I liked it! While yes, it wasn't as good as "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", I thought it was a funny movie. It was better than "Space Jam"!

We watched Sin City last night. I never really had an interest in it but my friend loaned it to us. It was different but an overall enjoyable movie. My husband loved it.

I saw Be Cool - yet another movie that goes into the category of "not bad but not great". I think I'm turning into Jay Sherman! :roll:

Hardly in my opinion. The acting from the actors was so over-the-top (not to mention wooden) that it managed ti shame the real stars. The Looneys themselves had a pretty good performance. The story was also quite weak... 8)

Wooo!!! No way!!! Another one is coming out? I wonder what that's gonna be about? I mean they took all the good ideas already.

I'm watching Varsity Blues, it's alright, not great. There's nothing else to watch so I'm watching it.
