For all the hype and buildup Avatar received, that movie looks terrible.

That's why they are hyping it up.

The new Twilight movie has beaten The Dark Night in opening week revenue. I am rapidly losing faith in humanity. :dope:

Watched "300" the other night. One of my favorites.

Saw "Blindside" the other day. Didn't think I would like it but it's good. Took the kids and they even got a little Thanksgiving Day lesson from it.

This new movie Brothers looks pretty good. An incredible cast. Jake Gyllenhal, Natalie Portman, and Tobey Maguire.

by **The Rube** » Thu 12/03/09 12:12 am

The better movies I've seen over the past month or two (joined Netflix, finally):

Doubt (Meryl Streep, Phillip Seymour Hoffman)

Rescue Dawn (Christian Bale, Steve Zahn)

Edgeplay: The Story Of The Runaways (documentary; all of the Runaways minus Joan Jett, who apparently was being a beech about it, are present)

Maxed Out (documentary about the credit card industry)

This Film Is Not Yet Rated (documentary about the MPAA; VERY VERY excellent for movie lovers)

Gran Torino (Clint Eastwood)

The Savages (Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Laura Linney)

The Wrestler (Mickey Rourke)

As you may guess, I don't watch a lot of actual tv. It's movies. :oops:

As a young kid.... I always like the Clash of the Titans. Sure it was a bit cheesy and the special effects were terrible, but it always entertained me. I suppose I would still watch it if I saw it on tv today.

Checking out the Apple trailers website, I noticed that there is a remake coming out in March. I think this movie is perfect for a remake with the advances in audio & visual special effects since the original. From the looks of it, they seemed to have pulled it off rather well. The new Cracken would have made that 9 year old planet wet himself back in the day.

Yeah, I always liked the greek mythology thing too. After Jurassaic Park, anything should be possible and I'm looking forward to seeing this one - hopefully, the story will be interesting...can't remember, but didn't Clash O.T.T. put together a mish mash of myths, such as Perseus, Jason etc.? I wouldn't mind seeing a remake of the Odyssey as well.

The Clash Of The Titans wasn't exactly following the mythology, though. Murdering is more like it. That being said, it was a good, but way creepy, movie.

A couple that I've seen recently, and recommend:

The Notorious Bettie Page

Wesley Willis: Daddy Of Rock'n'Roll

Rube-Here's a few others you might want to put on your NetFlix list: I'm a film historian and read spec scripts for studios, I see about 75 films a year (in a theater, lord knows how many at home on DVD) so here goes:
Who Killed the Electric Car - doc
Layer Cake
KIss Kiss Bang Bang
Run Lola Run- get the subtitled German version, not the English dubbed
Memento
Murderball-doc
You can check most of these out on YouTube for a trailer. All some of my favorites; well written and well acted little known gems.

If you were anything like me, then the big attraction to “Clash of the Titans” back then was Andromeda… that actress was fine! :mrgreen:

My son and I just enjoyed an evening without Mom and big sister and had a Blazing Saddles and Spaceballs double feature.

Could say that "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" is a remake of Odyssey, but it is so loosely based on the book that it is hard to say so.

Thanks for the suggestions! I do have Memento and Murderball (really wanting to see that one)on my list, and I've heard good things of the rest, but it's good to know that someone who watches that many movies specifically point them out.

Rube, you seem to have the same movie tastes as me, and I agree with KellyRed's suggestions. One more to add to your list would be Europa Europa. Subtitled. It is about a Jewish kid surviving the holocaust by joining Hitler's SS troops...

by **Superstar** » Sat 12/19/09 2:02 pm

Since I don't think anyone has commented about it yet, I will.....Avatar is REALLY good. Wasn't expecting to like it when I was first seeing the trailers. Then I saw a trailer in 3D and thought it looked better so I'd give it a shot. Went and saw it yesterday in 3D and WOW. FINALLY a blockbuster special effects movie that has a great storyline too. I definitely recommend it. It's a bit long...but there isn't a scene throughout the entire movie that I'd make shorter or cut completely. It flowed really well.

I'll add that one, too.

Now, I haven't seen the following, but have heard good things from a movie geek friend of mine:

Confessions Of A Superhero (doc on people like the St Cloud Superman)
Manhattan Melodrama (stars Clark Gable; a snippet is shown in the movie "Public Enemies")
Taking Woodstock
Buffalo '66
Mega Shark Vs Giant Octopus (Lorenzo Lamas, Deborah "Don't Call Me Debbie" Gibson...how can you go wrong?!) :dance:

Ok, that last one is, by all accounts, a crappy movie, but I guess it was supposed to be a crappy movie, almost an homage to crappy movies, like the Grindhouse double-feature (which I loved).

by **dxmnkd316** » Sat 12/19/09 10:31 pm

I'm all about crappy movies, so we watched Thankskilling back in november. Pretty bad. The only redeeming quality was the first line in the movie let's just say it rhymed with:

Nice *hits* *witch*...

I saw it once when it first came out to VHS and have only seen bits and pieces of it since. I'm not a big fan of those movies either. :thumbdown:

I went and saw it tonight and totally agree. It was very good and lived up to what I expected. Granted, I wasn't expecting the best movie ever, but it was very interesting and kept me entertained the whole time. I saw it in 2D and there were definitely parts of it that I wanted to see what they would look like in 3D, so I'll have to do that while it's still in theaters. I highly suggest seeing it, even if you think it's going to suck.

Agree to disagree I guess. I saw Pi a few years back on March 14th (Pi Day); it was interesting as like an art film and the creative direction it took, IMO, but the story was over my head. Call me shallow I guess. Requiem, on the other hand... I just didn't get it. Poster child for that genre I just don't understand (see: Donnie Darko, Eternal Sunshine, Fight Club, etc)

Saw Avitar in 3-D and I have to say the FX were pretty good. I would have to agree with those who have said the plot was hijacked. Overall it was entertaining, though I could have done without the agenda.

Oh. My. Lord.

Olivia Newton-John to Star in 'Score: A Hockey Musical' Flick

Newton-John, star of the 1978 film adaptation of the Broadway musical GREASE, will play the mother of a teen hockey star. Michael McGowan, director and writer of the award-wining "Saint Ralph," will direct.

Aside from acting in the film, Newton-John will co-write and perform a song for the movie's credits with co-star and singer-songwriter from Canada Marc Jordan. Jordan plays her husband in the film.

The film begins shooting in Toronto next week and is set to be released on October 22.

I can only imagine the titles of some of the songs...
