The last movie you saw

[U4EA]

The Hobbit was perfection, you troglodytes.

[xer0s]

I just watched the Hobbit again. This time in HFR 3D (first time I watched it wasn't 3D). It was just as good the second time around. The 3D was good, but I really couldn't see the HFR as anything groundbreaking. It was almost like watching a TV with really high Hz...

[LawL]

I'm about to see The Hobbit for a second time tomorrow night. lol @ haters who can't appreciate its awesomeness.

[seremtan]

what did you think of the 3d (assuming you watched it in 3d)? almost tempted to go and see the hobbit just for the 48 frames/3d thing, but the running time put me off.

yeah saw Life of Pi in 3D - added nothing of value to a dull film. Hobbit is defo worth seeing 3D HFR

lol @ people complaining about shit flying out of the screen in 3D. what's the point of 3D if it's just 2D with bells on?

[Whiskey 7]

PSYCHO

Yes the original. Thought we'd get a watch before watching the newie

Great movie. No wonder so many accolades in its day.


Source or is that sauce as apparently, and probably because it was the B&W era, they used chocolate sauce for the shower scene?
Then maybe its an urban myth, so I will check
Good viewing 8.5/10

hobbit was pfg

[GONNAFISTYA]

The Hobbit = 6/10 - It was a decent adventure film. The story was a complete shambles but enjoyable enough. Considering the last shot in the movie shows they're approximately 350 miles from their goal (the mountain far far holy fucking shit that's a long walk far away) I'm hoping the sequels aren't just a bunch of midgets walking.

Django Unchained = 8.5/10 - A much better adventure film than The Hobbit (sorry wizard-cock sucking nerds) and if you don't see it you're probably gay.

This is 40 = 0/10 - Garbage. This vapid and boring movie is simply Judd Apatow employing his whole family for their bi-yearly paycheques and so they can continue to say they "work in movies"....if you'd call them that.

Judd Apatow

is he the guy who invented 'mumblecore'?

sounds like a fag

Saw Django Unchained, 7/10 schlock

never fear, there should be some spiders and elves and shit... and, judging by this first movie, about 5 hours of asides and footnotes to explain things that don't need explanation (e.g. - oh, orcs are bad now? i missed the memo. good thing we get a half hour of back-story to explain that or i would've been lost. ).

[LawL]

So you already knew about the connection between Thorin and Azog did you dipshit?

Could be. I never heard the term before and had to look it up. From the descriptions it's not far off base with Judd Apatow movies: there's a vague script and every scene is basically ad-libbed out-takes and they pick the best take and use it in the movie and then somehow try to tell a story with all these ad-libbed scenes..it's fucking retarded. It's worse than an Adam Sandler production.

It's in the book ..

He is referred to in a single remark of Gandalf's in The Hobbit: "Your grandfather Thror was killed, you remember, in the mines of Moria by Azog the Goblin."

.. though of course it had to be explained in the film.

Although, Peter Jackson did take a lot more artistic license with this film than with the Rings trilogy.

He precipitated the War of the Dwarves and Orcs in T.A. 2790 by killing King Thrór [..] In the following years, he was the common enemy of all Dwarves [..] the war he started climaxed in the Battle of Azanulbizar, where he killed Náin, but while fleeing back to the gates of Moria he was caught and beheaded by Náin's son Dáin.

[LawL]

Irrelevant. Not to mention the majority of people seeing the movie wouldn't have read the book. Even so, it wouldn't make sense to not explain the backstory between the two characters whether it was in the book or not.

that's because Azog wasn't even a character in the book so much as a name mentioned once in passing... but in dividing one book into three movies they realized movie #1 didn't have an easily identifiable villain to fill in some cookie-cutter Hollywood Action so what had been a random comment along the likes of "Orcs are dicks." "Totally, bra. Like that one that killed your gwamps." is suddenly half the movie. Instead of them running into a few orcs, as happens from time to time, they're being hunted by Azog the one-armed dwarf raper of legend. The only thing that needed explanation about the subplot was why they included/invented it in the first place.

What an utter load of shit. Movies don't include an explanation as to why a Director/writer/whoever decided to include a particular character, but audiences do need to understand what a major character's significance is to the story. Without this understanding it just wouldn't make sense. You're just being a cunt.

Thelma And Louise

IMDB

A waitress and a housewife shoot a rapist and take off in a '66 Thunderbird.
Stars:Susan Sarandon, Geena Davis and Harvey Keitel

Harvey Keitel played a great Police Officer IMO and I really enjoyed the escapism but still rate at 7/10 but worth a watch all the same.

I'd tell you how it ends but didn't want to spoil it for you.

Director
Ridley Scott and yes I was surprised as you probably are to find him as Director here considering these sci-fi classics under his name as well as so many other greats.
Blade Runner (1982) Alien(1979) Prometheus (2012)
