Films! good, bad, recomendations, and general film talk

And yet another who's just seen District 9.  I thought it was fantastic.  :D

Sorry, I mean I don't like the South African accent :)

I am curious to see it actually. I don't like these kind of films though, would you recommend it for a sci-fi doubter?

Also, the SA can vary a bit anyway can't it? I have the pleasure of working with one, sometimes things get confusing, but generally used to it.

There's no need to be big on sci-fi to enjoy the movie, it's an apartheid movie with aliens  8)

I just watched Zack and Miri Make a Porno, what a superb film. Kevin Smith (and his gang) always deliver on absolutely every level. incidentally I've found a shop that will make a 100% accurate clone of Kevin Smiths trench coat  :D :D

I do need a DVD mania trip to the shops and then a movie spree but I really want to see this District 9 in the movies.

Plus read that Dorian Grey book, not watch it though.

I love Zack and Miri one of my favourite films. Plus I thought Jason Mewes was fantastic in it.

Watched Terminator: Salvation today again and really liked it. Bale aint so bad but the setting and direction was pretty good. Yeah I stood up for McG, wanna fight about it?

Watched Julie and Julia last night, bit of a Chick-flick but actually quite good. It's quite funny to see Meryl Streep doing a really OTT character. A good one to get brownie points from the mrs by taking her to see it.

i watched Hellboy 2: the golden army... pure Del Toro sickness, no real script but veeery funny!

i imagine so. I mean, some of them speak afrikaans (basically a dialect of dutch), while some are of english descent. Just from watching the cricket, there seems to be quite a bit of variation.

Still think Kroenen from the first movie is the best $%&#ing looking villian EVER!

We AGREE ABOUT A FILM?!?!?! :lol:

Surely not....

*checks outside to see if the oceans have boiled, the sky fallen and the earth cleaved in two...*

Wait, I know how to fix it: I thought Wolverine was quality!

Haven't seen it yet.... but I'm expecting the worst.

[MDV]

It fits perfectly with my 'bad films that are awesome' ethos. You'll hate it!

[Sifu Ben]

I wouldn't say that Wolverine was bad. I mean, it's a superhero movie, so it was never going to be a work of art, but it's far from a bad film. It does what it says on the tin.

[Philly Q]

My brother absolutely hated Wolverine, although we usually like superhero movies.  But I'll wait and see, we don't always agree.

Meanwhile, I watched Underworld: Rise Of the Lycans last night.  Disappointing.
