Paid Members GlennCullen Posted December 21, 2007 Paid Members Share Posted December 21, 2007 Eagle vs. Shark  Decided to watch this because it stars Jermaine Clement and I'm a big Flight of the Conchords fan. Wasn't sure if i liked it at the beginning but as it went on I got into it. Recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dopper Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 After buying the dvd a few months this morning I finally got round to watching Dead Man's Shoes. Â Using the index on page 200 of this topic I read through other's people's thoughts on this film, and am in total agreement with all but one reviewer (Mr. Seven) in thinking it was a great film. Â My only critisizm is the ending scene which failed to hold my interest, a bit of a letdown compared to the first 70 minutes. Â Considine was fantastic I thought. Having previously only seen him in 'Hot Fuzz' I will definitely be looking out for some other stuff he's been in. Mark Briscoe look-a-like Toby Kebbell played his part brilliantly, very believable and sympathetic. Â There were also some funny scenes with great lines, most of which were in the drug-dealer scenes. Best line of the film for me though, was: Â Â Where Richard opens the suitcase to show Herbie his mate dead and chopped up inside it, he says ... Â Â "Do you want to give him a kiss?"

ultimo the great Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Considine was fantastic I thought. Having previously only seen him in 'Hot Fuzz' I will definitely be looking out for some other stuff he's been in.Mark Briscoe look-a-like Toby Kebbell played his part brilliantly, very believable and sympathetic. Had the exact same thought when Kebbell apeared on The Street a few weeks ago.Great film, great performance's and Shane Meadow's is a genius. Can't wait to finally see This Is England.

Dynamite Duane Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 (edited) Last night I watched Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy an excellent film really enjoyed the story and the special effects really enhanced it. I liked the gun you zap at someone to see someone elses point of view that was classic :cool:By the way has anyone else watched the original series before to compare it? I recall seeing some of it but was only little at the time. Edited December 23, 2007 by Dynamite Duane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members LaGoosh Posted December 23, 2007 Paid Members Share Posted December 23, 2007 Watched 'I Am Legend' the other day. I really enjoyed it for the most part. It was quite tense, emotional and scary at points. I didn't like the ending though, and if the "vampires" were done with actors in make-up rather than complete CG it would have been a ton better. Gotta' give props to Will Smith here though as he is really great all the way through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynamite Duane Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 (edited) I'm currently about a quarter of the way through watching Star Wars with my son, stopped watching it while he wraps prezzies with the wife. It's still one of my all time fave films although I probably like Return of the Jedi best out of the original trilogy due to my age seeing it when it first came out, collecting the toys and the stickers It's nice watching films with my son that his grandad worked on especially when he'll never be able meet him as he died long before he was born. My wifes dad as I may have mentioned on here before did flying scenes and stunts in films using wires and harness and is on the credits for Superman and Flash Gordon but worked on many other productions.Being into martial arts it is interesting to see those influences with Star Wars such the use of the word master, the force which can be compared to Chi and the light sabres being a sci-fi version of swords.

The Cum Doctor Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Superbad  I have to say, I was hugely disappointed in this. I was expecting some great laughs from it, and while it was pretty amusing at times, it just wasn't as funny as I was expecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cum Doctor Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Pirates of the Caribbean - Dead Man's Chest  As far as I can tell, nothing of note happened in this movie. At least with the first one, you had a great sense of satisfaction from it. This time ... nothing. Just a bunch of fighting amongst each other and a storyline that goes absolutely nowhere. No doubt that the final movie will put that to rest, but this was just not worth a minute of my time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
