Black Sabbath Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter was alright. The fight sequences were pretty darn good, but everything else was kind of 'meh'. Glad I downloaded it first before buying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Lahey Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 (edited) I saw Argo last night. It's a mediocre political thriller at best. Save your money and download episodes of Homeland instead. And Ben Affleck is still a shitty actor. Edited October 15, 2012 by Randy Lahey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Lahey Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 (edited) I feel like you don't enjoy movies anymore, Randy. Moonrise Kingdom has been the only movie I've seen this year that I really enjoyed. I also liked The Master, but I think most people will hate it.

Moonrise Kingdom has been the only movie I've seen this year that I really enjoyed. I also liked The Master, but I think most people willl hate it.I understand what you're saying, but a movie has to be pretty shit for me to at least not be entertained. Looper, Dredd 3D, Expendables 2 - They were all good.I mean, I read about people saying "Taken 2 was shit! Utter bollocks!" and shit like that, and I think "Really? It was shit?". I mean fuck, I haven't seen it yet, but I knew it was practically the same as the first when I saw the trailer but Liam Neeson kicking different peoples asses, and that's OK with me, because I know I'll love it.I don't always go into a movie to be impressed and just "wowed" - I go to be entertained and "live" things that I can't, which is what most movies do.

appetite4illusions Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I saw Argo last night. It's a mediocre political thriller at best. Save your money and download episodes of Homeland instead. And Ben Affleck is still a shitty actor.He's getting quite good at directing though. I really liked John Goodman's line in the film "you can teach a rhesus monkey to direct..." Wink wink, nudge nudge.Loved the soundtrack too. Some great 70's jams found there way into that film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Watched the 2010 Kino restoration of Metropolis tonight as an extra-curricular for one of my classes. I've never been much of a silent movie kind of guy but this one surprisingly held my interest over the two and a half hours. If you're into expressionist films and the silent era, I'd recommend it. Apparently there's an 80's version with pop and rock songs for the soundtrack instead of an orchestral score. I might try to track that down.
