Went to see WALL-E last night with the GF, it being one of the only well-reviewed movies at our shitty theatre.

I was bracing for another disney CGI shitpile, but Wall-e was IMO very well done. One of the best CGI films I've seen in a very long time, like since Toy Story came out. Sure Wall-e is emo personified, but I just thought the animators did an extremely good job in the first half of the movie getting across the character, his emotions, his situation, all pretty much without dialogue. I won't get all into it cause of spoilers and such, but Wall-e easily gets a 9/10 in my books for an animated kids movie.

They are getting so damn good with the CGI animated movies now. Stuff doesn't move like robots anymore, even the robots!! All the motions are super fluid and natural, stuff looks like it obeys the laws of physics somewhat. Very cool all in all.

It made my 5 year old niece cry. Something sad happens. *runs away to join the circus*

I never quite understood why everyone can call a movie good, but the endings suck.
The endings are a huge part of the movie, if it was an abortion, how can the movie be good? It doesn't make sense.

Easy. As you're watch for the first hour and 20 minutes, you're thinking "This is pretty good. I'm enjoying myself, and am thoroughly entertained." Then the last 10 minutes sucked. It does spoil the effect of the whole movie, but doesn't change the fact that you enjoyed it for 80 minutes.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is funny...

Spoilers ahead!

Spoiler

Were you hoping she would die? When he jumped out the window I thought he was trying to kill himself before he became immortal again and I was thinking, "Fuck yes! This is what I wanna see!" But then they brought her back and they lost me.

A brooding Hancock, Similar to Batman would have been the best thing ever, and would have made possible sequels alot more desirable. As it is, they left him happy and friendly with all the knots tied. Cunts.

Yeh i was. an what happened when he jumped made more sense than what actually happened in the film

Why i didnt just use spoiler tags to make that more understandable im not sure.

[Shurque's biatch]

Iron Man = total win, loved it
Prince Caspian = I love C.S. Lewis and thought these have been good so far, but he left out the bow competition with the DLF???
Indy = no more improbable than the others and EUPHEMISM! Harrison Ford looks good for 66!
Wall-E = very good, but the opening cartoon short was brilliant and worth the whole price of the movie on its own.

Want to see:
Hancock - sounds worth it, even with the bad
Wanted - must see, Jason Bourne meets the Matrix with Angelina Jolie, uh, how could it be bad?
Dark Knight - no comment needed
HellBoyII - looks great


Not sure about:
Hulk
Kungfu Panda
Get Smart

These look good for late summer/fall:
Mirrors
Death Race
Babylon AD
Taken
Eagle Eye
Max Payne
Quarantine
Quatum of Solace

This is easily the most movies that I wanted to see in the same year ever.

Easily.

This might be the worst movie I have seen eyt this year. Massive plot holes, awful characters, and no where near good enough action for me to make forget about it. Loom of Fate? Come on.

Spoiler

After he is accused of making fake targets, he shows everyone targets for themselves, and they all just take him at his word? Jesus. That and the worlds best assassins kill a bunch of business men in board rooms, how does that even take skill? Give us an awesome warlord assassination or something.

Hancock

Spoiler

I thought when he jumped out at the end, he was trying to kill himself to make her live or something. It wasn't till he was jumping away that I realized...

Pretty entertaining... its almost a romantic super-hero comedy, so if that is not what you are expecting, I can see how people woudn't like it. Ending was fine, what did you expect from hollywood?

[Illuyankas]

I saw Wanted. It was pretty silly. But, and this is what makes it unmissable, it has Morgan Freeman saying motherfucker.

Morgan.

Freeman.

Motherfucker.



I don't see how you can't see it.

[Obdigore]

Shurque, Get Smart was great, imo.

I do want to see the new 007, but I saw a preview for eagle eye, and it looks somewhat stupid.

Couldn't that just be put on youtube and thus save me my non-existent monies?

[drinksinbars]

saw the hulk - was pretty damned god must say. better than the ang lee one, though not sure which bird i preferred in the role of betty...

[Raymond Luxury Yacht]

You might be the first person to refer to a woman as a bird since the 40's. I am impressed.

[Thelomen Toblerone]

Not in our backwards country he's not!

Now, if only we got to see that bird's charlies...

[Dr Trouble]

It is a well used term in Australia also.

I say it to the girls at work because they find it sexist.

[Raymond Luxury Yacht]

Well then. I did not know that people still said it. Learn something useless every day on these forums.

I watched Dark City again for the first time in years last night. It's just a fucking awesome movie.

This movie is tragically overlooked in its awesomousity.

- Abyss, notes Keifer Sutherland pre-Jack is even surprisingly good in it.
