Old Boy

and

The Grudge

"12 Angry Men"

"Over the Hedge"

I swear to god, I fall in love with that movie ALL over again every time I watch it.

The Green Mile. They issued the new DVD again. I have the book too.:frankiesmile:

Superman (1948) The original black & white version.

Last movie i watched in theatres was flushed away

And had never considered the possibility of finding another person who had actually seen the movie Old Boy. There's only one other person I know that's scene that movie, and she was the person who showed it to me. If you're interested in any other Asian cinema along those lines, a good movie is Tetsuo: The Man of Iron.

Last Movie I saw was For Your Consideration, in theaters. Christopher Guest is a king. A king, I say! I'll admit, it wasn't as good as his earlier work, such as Waiting for Guffman, but it was still a great movie.

" Count of Monte Cristo " 2002 DVD

Actually, my friend from my Improv comedy team showed it to me, he's big in asian cinema movies like "Yojimbo" and stuff like that. We sort of "trade movies" each showing each other a movie we know the other would like and enjoy.

He showed me "Old boy" and I showed him "The Grudge", last time he showed me a movie called "Deep" and I showed him "Wes Craven's: They". I loved "Old boy", just felt kinda super depressed at the twisted ending, but other then that.

Only other asian cinema I have seen would be Godzilla movies (I HIHGLY recommend checking out "Final Wars"), and no doubt you've heard of this big asian movie "Battle Royale".

I've read the manga and the original book of "Battle Royale", but I've never seen the film adaptation.

Saw "Happy Feet" recently and though it had great animation and cute dancing/singing penguins, some of the messages made me roll my eyes and go "Oh not again." The second a movie starts going into conservation issues and "HUMANS ARE EVIL" messages (as well as anti-religious messages in this movie!) I just start to lose interest.
A really geat movie ruined for me. But this is MY opinion and I understand not everyone will agree.

Movies I'm waiting to see...

ERAGON

Movies I want to see...

Charlotte's Web
Saw 3
IceAge: The Meltdown

and well a buncha others too. I actually have no interest in Casino Royale, and I dont' know why.

Let me put it to you this way:

YOU MUST SEE IT!!! It is seriously that good, aside from one part towards the end that was totally unrealistic.

Superman Returns.

See No Evil

Casino Royale.

Best Bond since Sean Connery.

Clerks 2 - just came out on DVD! I'm a Kevin Smith freak!:frankiesmile:

Casino Royale ('67 Peter Sellers version)

and then i watched "Zardoz" bet i'm the only one here who's seen that!

The Omega Man.

That was just weird.

No my friend... no you are not. Not only I've seen it, I also own the DVD as well, it was cheap and I needed a good laugh that particular day.

Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn

Borat.

Yeah taranchula it was $7 on Amazon about a yr ago when i got it.

BTW Borat rocks!

i saw the holiday this weekend...it was great!!! it made me feel good and i laughed and cried...it was great!!!

Good Wilt Hunting

Dragon Ball Z: Brolly, the legendary Super Saiyan

National Treasure on the bus to N.Y.C. yesterday. I forgot how much I loved that movie when it came out... And how hot the guy who plays Riley is.

I did a little digging, and found out that the sequel is coming out next December.

And now to attempt to write a fanfic for my weekly obsession, because I actually have an idea this time. Amazing.

I must now call my best friend and bug her to bring the DVD to school tomorrow because I'm itching to see the alternate ending.

Invincible---tearjerker Holocaust flick

I was in the mood for a classic WW II flick, so I dug out my "Tora, Tora, Tora" DVD.:frankiesmile:

wonderful movie, Duck

Yeah Disney always ponys up the dough for their cash cows. "Treasure" was a kick ass movie and the sequel is gonna involve them going around the world more like to arctic continents, China, and stuff like that.

Far as I know everyone in the first one will be back to reprise their roles except for the villain of course.

It's a classic, but I have a hard time watching it because of what happened to Kurosawa as a result of that movie... :(

what happened? Personally i can't watch Sharon Tate flicks...you know why.

Basically, Kurosawa was hired to direct the Japanese segments of the movie. His work was completely micromanaged by the studio, telling him how to direct and constantly undermining him. Since he was widely considered one of the greatest film directors EVER, he naturally took offense, at which point the studio began spreading rumors around Hollywood that he was "difficult" and "impossible to work with". When it got to the point that it was affecting his health, he quit the movie. Of course, that meant that the studio said it proved they were right, and since Kurosawa wasn't really in a position to defend himself, it seriously damaged his reputation, both here and in Japan, which made it much harder for him to get funding for his films. There were other factors too, of course, but he later said that this period was the worst of his life (he attempted suicide not too long afterwards). I have tremendous respect for Kurosawa-san (seeing "Ran" still takes my breath away), and so it's difficult to watch "Tora Tora Tora", although I will admit it is an excellent movie.
Sorry about how long-winded that was...my inner film geek isn't a pretty sight! :-/

Hey BE!

Thanks for the little history here. I did not know that, and I find that very interesting and tragic. I am a history buff, so naturally I just learned something - thanks!:frankiesmile: :frankiesmile: :frankiesmile:

My pleasure. I could spend hours talking about Japanese film...or I could, if people didn't leave after ten minutes or so. 8D

Then perhaps I could talk you into sharing your views on The Seven Samurai? I have been dying to see that movie for ages but have yet to succeed. :)

I just got my Transformers the Movie 20th aniversary dvd in the mail and watched it. One of my all time favorite movies!:D

Tim Burton's: Corpse Bride

Is there nothing that man cannot do with stop-motion? :D

A Lost Claus on YouTube

I watched "Re-Animated" on Sunday.

I just finished watching "The Incredibles"

:( To be honest Radical, I hated what I saw of "Re-animated".
