Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted December 21, 2013 Author Paid Members Share Posted December 21, 2013 It would have worked better if they had never made it and I'd watched Alien instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron balls McGinty Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Oz The Great and Powerful. A film based on a foregone conclusion, when I got to the end I realised I'd just watched the Disney version of Army of Darkness. Â Never again. Didn't help with my intense dislike of James Franco either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Danger Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 The Worlds End was a really good sci fi film but I kind of expected the same warmth and humour of the other two films when it's really not in a similar vein. I'd say Paul is closer in feel to the other two than this. This is the End is worth watching for Danny Mcbride alone but so is anything with Danny Mcbride in it, saying that I've not seen the medieval one with Natalie Portman that's meant to be terrible. Â I've been on a bit of a binge lately mainly using the Empire top 50 films of 2013 as inspiration. Prisoners was excellent in parts but goes a bit mental. Jeff, Who lives at Home was a pretty decent watch and at 80 minutes long and didn't feel like it was trying too hard to be quirky. I'm a bit if a Jason Seigel mark though. Cloud Atlas was saved by Tom Hanks but some of the actor choices and dodgy make up jobs are really distracting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Jeff Who Lives at Home must be about two or three years old, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted December 21, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted December 21, 2013 The film itself is a bit like an early 2000's Indy match  Like Guy Bifkin said...  This is a quality post.  Anyway, I liked The Hobbit 2. Absolutely crap sounding subtitle though. It definitely is too long, but it's far better paced than the first instalment (during which I actually fell asleep in the cinema before anything significant had actually happened). As a standalone film, the storyline obviously suffers from not having much to it in way of beginning and ending, but as a consequence of that, you get an entertaining two and a half hours of pretty much non-stop action. If they had cut it down to somewhere under two hours it would have been great, my arse was aching by the end of it all. I also found that some of the action sequences are so fast paced and have so much going on that they were a little hard to keep up with for me, as I was sat near the front in a 3D IMAX screen. I was moving my head all over the place trying to get it all in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 I started watching Your Highness yesterday, but it was so bad that I only made it through 4 minutes. I even fast forwarded to see Natalie Portman's bum, and I suspect it was a stunt double bum. Â How does a film that awful get made in the modern age with a cast that expensive? The script was like something a 14 year old would write. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted December 23, 2013 Author Paid Members Share Posted December 23, 2013 One of the worst films I've ever seen. And it's not her arse either, just to make things worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vamp Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Cloud Atlas was saved by Tom Hanks but some of the actor choices and dodgy make up jobs are really distracting. Â The best bit of Cloud Atlas is the bit where you go "isn't that thingy from Last of the Summer Wines?" and then he out performs all of the bored and clueless looking big stars. Â Actually, to be fair to the people behind that movie, it would have made a fun video game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Justice Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 (edited) Enter the Dragon on Blu-ray turned up from Amazon today, so that's my day sorted. Â It's only on for an hour and a half.
