  1. Been saying this for a few years now. Hollywood will beat this into the ground until the movies don't make any money.I also think the hype surrounding this one was a little over the top compared to the first one which I enjoyed.
  2. Out of all the guys in the current core i will miss Burrows the most.when he hangs them up. If he's not on your team he's the guy you love to hate.
  3. Yeah,i watched the trailer for this and it kinda reminded me The Ring (2002).Will be interesting as i am a fan of horror movies and cabin in the woods to see what the twist will be to make it stand out.
  4. Movies I've seen in the last few months. Selma 8.5/10 Very uplifting true event tale... great performance by Tom Wilkinson as LBJ and David Oyelowo as MLK. The Hobbit : Five Armies 9 / 10 I' m a sucker for these and I loved all the movies .... the only reason I didn't give it 10/10 was the movie was just one 2 hour and 10 minute battle. A Walk Among The Tombstones 8/ 10 Kind of had a late 70's gritty NY flavor to it . Good Performance by Liam Neeson and Brian " Astro " Bradley as T.J.. The Drop 8/10 Another Gritty NY crime drama , Last film for James Gandolfini , Matthias Schoenaels as Eric Deeds and Noomi Rapace gave great performances and Tom Hardy gave a very understated performance as Bob. The Interview 7/10 Liked the first half hour then I was checking the clock to see how much time was left (always a bad sign).I think i'm just getting sick of seeing Seth Rogan play almost the same character in every movie he is in. Gone Girl 8.5/10 Great mystery and great performance by Rosamund Pike as Amy Dunne. The Equalizer 7.5 / 10 Like the movie,but feel if it had have been 20 to 25 minutes shorter it would have gotten a higher rating . Annabelle 7/10 Kinda creepy prequel to The Conjuring.More geared towards teen crowd but still worth a one time watch. Whiplash 9.5/10 This has replaced Boyhood as my favorite film for 2014. Unreal performances by Miles Teller and J.K. Simmons..
  5. Very simply only Two words are needed and they are : Thank You !
  6. The Babadook I think I gave it a 7/10 on IMdb.....A lot of people said they found the 6 year old annoying ??
  7. I'm surprised the music for The Shining was not on there,the Theme at the first always creeps me out.
  8. The Loved Ones 6/10 Kinda Meh as I've seen much better and it did have a happy ending of sorts ?
  9. Watched all the Sleepaway Camps with the exception of the Survivors one.The first and Return to Sleepaway Camp were the best.
  10. Was the loved ones made in Australia ???
  11. I've seen the House of the Devil also, it was released in 2009.
  12. God's Pocket 8.5 /10 Gritty crime drama with a really good cast.Philip Seymour Hoffman is the lead.So so reviews but i really enjoyed it. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2920808/?ref_=nv_sr_5
  13. Mother is fantastic,if you like dark twisted asian films you will love it.here is IMDB page for it. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1216496/?ref_=nv_sr_4
  14. As Sabrefan1 pionted out " not including the cost of advertising " which is a fair chunk of change also.But i agree if the OG cast wants to make a third one fans and i would see it.
  15. It is pretty special,i own the 3 movies i listed on DVD and the Host is the only one i`ve watched more than once,not because they are bad movie.I just want to hold on to the feeling of how special they were the first time watching them.Maybe by the end of the year i'll revisit both. Totally agree with you on that one did not have the same feeling at the end of this one that i have with the first,problem is as long as movies like Kick Ass made their box office they will keep making them,. I call BS on what Moretz is saying,yeah maybe she won`t do another one but the movie did make it's US budget back and then you add in the worldwide gross and the movie was a modest in the eyes of many in Hollywood.
  16. Not really my favorite Scorsese film to be honest,Mean Streets,Gangs Of New York and Taxi Driver are my favorites.
  17. I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK 8.5 /10 A girl who thinks she is a combat cyborg checks into a mental hospital, where she encounters other psychotics. Eventually, she falls for a man who thinks he can steal people's souls.LIttle weird at first ,but in a in a good way.,really enjoyed this one all the way.
  18. Seen this last night,from the korean director who did Memories of Murder,The Host and Mother (love this one).Pretty interesting flick.
  19. I get where you're coming from..one or even the best movie Richard Linklater has done and that is saying alot. One of the best U.S. directors of the last 25 years.
  20. Movies i`ve seen over the last 6 or 7 months. Godzilla 7/10 The Fault In Our Stars 8.5/10 (well act romance/drama...only problem i had was within 10 minutes in i knew how it would end. X-Men D.O.F.P. 7.5/10 Get On Up 7/10 Some bio pics are hit and miss,this one was kind of a hit for me. Boyhood 10/10 Picture of the year in my books, i hope this movie is not overlooked when it's time to had out oscars.3 hours that went by in the blink of an eye and brought back some good memories and painful ones too. The Purge : Anarchy 6/10 Better than the first ,but that's not that hard as this one and the first one are a piece of garbage.Didn't like the message it was trying to get across. Expendables 3 6/10 not bad..just seen it all before. Wolf of Wall Street 6.5 Aaah the glorification of ripping off the little guy.... Noah 6/10 nice fairy tale Oculus 5/10 average for teens horror flick. Devil's Due 5/10 average found footage flick. Rosemary's Baby it ain't. Oldboy 8/10 pretty solid remake of the second of Park Chan -Wook`s revenge trilogy...can't understand all the hate for this one as i did love Oldboy when it came out in 2003 but after seeing Lady Vengeance and Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance i thought Oldboy was the most cartoonish of the 3. Carrie 5/10 really faithful to the original,the only problem i had with this is i thought Chloe Grace Moretz was miscast as Carrie.I have a hard time picturing her as the ugly duckling that Sissy Spacek was in the 1976 OG.
  21. I love this guy and really wish he wasn't a troll and he's not even a good one as he can't even get his fairy tale correct. I did check out his comments in the teachers thread and they are comedy gold.
  22. Just once before he retires i wanna see that tall A$$hole Chara get dropped like a bad habit.
