The King Of Swing Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 The only good bit in titanic is when that bloke falls off the top of the ship and hits the rudder. Â It's not better than seeing Winslet's knockers. Â The novelty wore off after she whipped em out for the 100th time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vice Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 (edited) I watched Tim Burton's Batman and thought it was pretty good, although nothing spectacular overall. The most striking thing about it is just how terrific the set design is. Gotham City looks like a seedy, Gothic, 1930s comic book world come to life. I understand some people thought this film was too dark when it came out, but I think there's still a notable degree of campness there, unless it just seems like that now? Jack Nicholson's Joker is also amazing; the perfect blend of manic and sinister. Â But the plot isn't as interesting or dramatic as it should be. Bruce Wayne's relationship with Vicki Vale doesn't feel genuine, <-- click on 'spoiler' to show/hide the spoiler and the bit where Alfred lets her into the Batcave just seems dumb. Revealing Joker as the one who killed Bruce Wayne's parents feels really shoehorned in too. Instead of the whole "You made me"/"You made me first" thing at the end, surely Joker terrorizing the city and murdering its people is enough of a reason to justify Batman kicking his ass? Â [close spoiler] ");document.close();Â It's still an enjoyable watch, even with its flaws. Batman Returns next. How would people compare this with Burton's first Batman?

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted April 29, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted April 29, 2011 I got dragged to see Scream 4 yesterday. It was fucking terrible. Wes Craven is a cunt, wasting his fucking time lining his already massively overlined pockets profiting from this shit. The world didn't need Screams 2 and 3, it sure as fuck didn't need 4. Â It wasn't scary, it didn't make me jump once, it wasn't funny, it was practically the fucking same as the first three, and the acting was terrible (Emma Roberts was TERRIBLE, absolutely utterly awful) - although I agree with Sev's opinion on Hayden Panettiere, she put in a performance that was way too creditable for this shit. And yeah, her hair was stupid. Â An utter waste of time beyond making a load of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, I'm a fan of the original trilogy, and Scream 2 is one of my all time guilty pleasures, so I've been very apprehensive about this. I'm supposed to be going with the missus tomorrow night, but I'm trying to talk her into Fast Five again...

mackie Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 It's still an enjoyable watch, even with its flaws. Batman Returns next. How would people compare this with Burton's first Batman? Â Good film with some really cool moments but it does look much cheaper than the first one in terms of set design and while the writing is still dark the directing isn't as dark as the first. Good film if you are a Batman or Burton fan but i advice you don't watch the Joel Schumacher films they are awful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Egg Shen Posted April 29, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted April 29, 2011 saw The Dilemma this evening with the girldfriend (gotta watch a certain kind of movie)...it's like a serious drama that's morphed into a Vince Vaughan movie, it's standard enjoyable guff. I was actually surprised to see that Ron Howard directed this, guess he was looking to do something light for a change. Channing Tatum gets some grief in the press and online for his acting but he was one of the best things in this, he's got some comedy chops. Oh and Jennifer Connelly is still amazing.

patiirc Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Just watched Kick-Ass, Im not sold on its genius. Its alright but aside from the 'shock' value of Hit Girl, there isnt anything much that hasnt been seen in Mystery Men or Zaotoichi or Crank or whatever in the interim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CurryAngel Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 I got dragged to see Scream 4 yesterday. It was fucking terrible. Wes Craven is a cunt, wasting his fucking time lining his already massively overlined pockets profiting from this shit. The world didn't need Screams 2 and 3, it sure as fuck didn't need 4. It wasn't scary, it didn't make me jump once, it wasn't funny, it was practically the fucking same as the first three, and the acting was terrible (Emma Roberts was TERRIBLE, absolutely utterly awful) - although I agree with Sev's opinion on Hayden Panettiere, she put in a performance that was way too creditable for this shit. And yeah, her hair was stupid.  An utter waste of time beyond making a load of money.   It is awful. My missus dragged me to go and see it but I still don't know what I've done to upset her.  Worst part of the movie for me is: <-- click on 'spoiler' to show/hide the spoiler When ghostface is about to kill the movie geek and the guy says to him "You can't kill me, it's not in the rules!" I mean Jesus what kind of dialogue is that?

Paid Members neil's bitch Posted May 1, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted May 1, 2011 Went out to see:  Thor  TO be honest i wasnt expecting a whole lot, i just had this idea it was going to be really really bad. But thankfully i was wrong! I wont go to much into it, as its a fairly new release, and some guys will want to see it, but i personally think it has been made in the best possible way that it could of been made. Visually, it is stunning. The story is also good, as to be hoenst i didnt know the first thing about the Marvel univeres thor (i had a rough idea of the mythology side of thor), and it all came through rather well.  Its also packed with little notes for the geeks to pick up on. (References/Appearences from other charecters etc), and otherwise also has a bit more footage after the credits!  So overall, quite good, not the best movie ever, but by far not the worst superhero movie of all time either. Worth a watch!  8/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
