jmacomber68w Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 i guess i'm a pisshead, but i couldn't handle that bad of a movie. ROM was def worth seeing, it could have been shorter though, i just saw i am legend, uh 15 minutes ago hahah very good, thats what a "blockbuster" should be, if it was released over the summer it would have made billions and billions of dollars opening weekend. It seems like the type of movie everyone is gonna see Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tongue-tied Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 The Fresh Prince lost me with 'I, Robot'. There wasn't even a rap over the credits if I remember correctly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Irwin M. Fletcher Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Does anyone know if there is a national release date for The Asassination of Jesse James....? I have looked all over the internets and can't seem to find anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Stewart Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 That one was out here in Boston a couple of months ago, at least. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Big Perm Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 side note, I just witnessed a fight in Best BUy over the last blade runner caseone dude got to it first, the other guy went to snatch it, they shoved each other, dropped some f-bombs and then the geek squad showed up to clam them down.

I've only seen the Director's Cut. Are they all pretty different? I heard there was 5. Any ones perferred? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Big Perm Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 i saw the new Final cut in the theater, it has just a wee bit added, nothing that you really even catch, but the sound was amazing on it, so it's pretty much the director's cut with a little bit more, just a couple of minutes maybe total, but for sound its the superioir. There's the original work print, the origianl cut with the V.O., which was all we had for a bit, and is fun in a weird way. I'll take the new cut, mainly for the superior sound.

OOO Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 i just saw I AM LEGEND at the IMAX in Lincolnshire, IL, i thought it was good. The glow in the dark miniature golf place that is in the same center as that theater is lame. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Azzurri Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Does anyone know if there is a national release date for The Asassination of Jesse James....? I have looked all over the internets and can't seem to find anything. i don't think it's getting one. it's intelligent and artistic. but it doesn't show shit blowing up every five minutes. translation = it won't make money i rented it from my hotel room last week. my favorite movie of the year, next to No Country for Old Men.

Dreamin' Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I've been fighting a vicious case of the holiday blues, so I called in sick and went to see I'm Not There this afternoon. The story of Bob Dylan is American folklore, and Todd Haynes pulled it off brilliantly. Great soundtrack, too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
W(TF) Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I guess they've all been mentioned now -- except We Own The Night. NOT the best film of the year, but quite enjoyable and the best film I saw in the theater this year. I'm a Joaquin fan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NightOfJoy Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 "Sunshine" was pretty cool....except the last third of the film, which was rather mundane and predictable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So Long Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 See, I loved both Knocked Up and Superbad. No Country For Old Men was amazing, and Juno's great as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Willkoman Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I guess you hated Superbad too... I'm going to see Walk Hard tonight (another Judd Apatow movie) and I can't wait. Didn't see Superbad but Walk Hard is a definite as is Juno. Just didn't care for Knocked Up. At all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheMaker Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Anybody else see Sweeney Todd today? WOW. So much fun, and such a gorgeous production. The photography and production design were truly spectacular, and the music was integrated almost seamlessly with the onscreen action. The first half hour was a bit tough for me to sit through at times - I am NOT a Sondheim/Broadway/whatever fan, and I admit it freely - but the film completely charmed me by about the midpoint. Probably Tim Burton's strongest movie since Ed Wood, no kidding. It's been a good year for directorial comebacks, between this and No Country for Old Men. Anybody have a chance to see Coppola's Youth Without Youth yet? I don't want to raise my expectations, but there's a pattern I see starting to emerge... P.S., The older couple sitting in front of me during the matinee were audibly horrified by the violence. I didn't realize it was an R-rated movie 'til I exited the theatre, so I was a little surprised by the Kill Bill-topping arterial sprays. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't realize it was an R-rated movie 'til I exited the theatre, so I was a little surprised by the Kill Bill-topping arterial sprays. I also saw Sweeney Todd today and I must say it was great. As a fan of the stage production, the movie did it justice. Depp's voice is chilling at times. The reviews were dead on in that it was an absolute bloodbath. Won't say much more on the plot, so I won't spoil it for anyone. Sacha Baron Cohen was great, along with Alan Rickman and Timothy Spall as vile as one can imagine. Buffy the Vampire Slayer fans will be pleased with a cameo by one of its former cast members.

hollow Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 The preview for the Daniel-Day Lewis movie about oil looks pretty sweet.Very much looking forward to There Will Be Blood - Daniel Day-Lewis is always fantastic, and he picks his roles with care. Plus, it's a Paul Thomas Anderson film. But, alas, I don't see movies in the theatre, so it'll be a wait. And for that reason (DVD viewing only), I can't really come up with a top list for 2007 since I haven't seen all of the films for the year Quote Link to post Share on other sites
explodo Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Did anybody else think Juno was just kind of alright? The acting was pretty wonderful, but the plot has been done hundreds of times. Girl gets pregnant, girl deals with it. Everybody smiles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WilcoOfTheDay Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 and like Once, you'll probably be purchasing the soundtrack as soon as you leave the theater Watched Once on Netflix and went out and bought the DVD and soundtrack the next day Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DrNo Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Saw Walk Hard last night. Had some funny parts, but overall it kind of sucked. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I saw Sweeney Todd today and loved it. Most definitely near the top of my list. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
