TheSpecialist Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Re-Watched Repo! and Hard Candy. I can't decide who I loved more ASH or Bill Mosley.Hard Candy was a crazy flick. I went into that movie knowing nothing about the plot and ended up with a "W T F" look on my face throughout the entirety of it.Watched Donnie Brasco and Pineapple Express this week.Donnie Brasco blew my mind!Donnie Brasco is amazing! Johnny Depp is brilliant. I can't wait to see Public Enemies. I'm curious to see what he does wit the Mad Hatter in the Alice remake. That's supposed to be in 3D, I believe. Pineapple Express was hilarious. Have you seen Zack and Miri Make a Porno? So funny. There's a lot of awkward in the movie though.The Tim Burton/Johnny Depp combo is getting a little stale though. I don't think they'll ever top Edward Scissorhands. and what's with Burton doing nothing but remakes these days? He used to be one of the most original directors around but somewhere down the pike he just decided to spend a whole decade doing nothing but remaking stuff or adapting children's classics.

Angelica Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 This won't mean anything to anyone else here, but Melissa Leo, who was once a cast member of the show Homicide: Life on the Street just scored a Best Actress nomination from the Academy, which makes me giddy. So much so, that I am willing to overlook the totally fucking ridiculous best actor nom Brad Pitt recieved for Benjamin Button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I like him, I think he's more of a movie star than an actor really. Who's your pick for best actor? Rourke? I think Langella could walk away with it...he turned in a masterful performance in Frost/Nixon.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that includes Alien 3 and Panic Room. Pitt should have gotten a supporting actor nod for Burn After Reading, he was brilliant in that. But he didn't resonate for me in Button at all. I agree about Langella's performance, but I think it's between Rourke and Penn. Leonardo DiCaprio should have been nominated for Revolutionary Road. It was nice of them to include the great Richard Jenkins for a wonderful performance in a lovely film that virtually no one saw, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burton/Depp are a classic pairing and make excellent films together. I actually like Sweeney better than Edward Scissorhands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that the piece of shit The Reader somehow got a nomination for Best Picture over The Wrestler and many other better movies is more fucking ridiculous.

Spuffy78 Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 The first time I watched Hard Candy I was amazed and un-comfortable all at the same time. I still feel the same after re-watching it. Anyone watch the show Supernatural? I've caught it a few times on Scream and it seems like a really great show. Re-Watched Repo! and Hard Candy. I can't decide who I loved more ASH or Bill Mosley.Hard Candy was a crazy flick.

Burton/Depp are a classic pairing and make excellent films together. I actually like Sweeney better than Edward Scissorhands.They've defintely made some excellent films but it's getting old. I love Depp as a actor but he hasn't really done anything truly out of character since Blow. Bruce Campbell said it best when he said "Johnny Deep is just plain out weird" which is great for the character Burton thinks off but he needs to stop doing the same tired act with Burton and The Pirate flicks.

I like the guy, but Benjamin Button is a classic case of make-up and special effects giving the performance. If he and Fincher actually gave the character some character, it could have been a great movie, not just an interesting and pretty one.You're right about Dicaps. He really should have been up there.

Axl_morris Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 I just watched the directors cut of Troy.I never connected with Eric Bana's charactor, and it felt good to see that he was killed off. However, he was much more respectable than his brother Orlando Blooms charactor who was a fuckin' pussy and should have died. He killed Achillies. Brad Pitt was a complete legend in this film, killing was his skill, Bloom wasn't worthy enough to kill Achillie. Everytime Orlando was in a fight, he'd cowery away, instead of standing up and fighting (like the rest of his army). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm immensely critical about terminology and the way people phrase things. Not really sure about how I proved your point, though. You were anticipating "pitching" counter-arguments of denial and I just wanted to get a cheap laugh out of what I perceived to be your ignorance. I'm like that sometimes.
