  1. The only other movie I could compare it to is Machete, but it's way beyond even that.
  2. If you haven't seen Hobo With A Shotgun yet, you aren't allowed to post in this thread anymore until you do so.
  3. They're all cliched, but it's done in a tounge-in-cheek way.
  4. I've refused to see any of them on principle
  5. Dont't tell me what to do
  6. Looks silly
  7. The book was better.
  8. If you want to be incredibly depressed, I recommend watching the documentary GasLand. It's about the hazardous effects of hydraulic fracturing (also known as fracking)to extract natural gas from the earth. Without getting into the politics of it, I'd say it's as upsetting to watch as Food, Inc.
  9. It's more courtroom drama and conspiracies than suspense and action. Still better than most American movies. I also forgot to mention that the third one has the least amount of boobs in it. That's also why it's my least favorite.
  10. I enjoyed the trilogy and will probably read the books sometime soon just so when David Fincher redoes them, I can tell everybody that the books and original trilogy were better. Also, I'd much rather watch a film in its original language and read subtitles than listen to an awfully dubbed dialogue.
  11. Heat had some great performances but overall left something to be desired. There's never really been any movies by Michael Mann that have truly impressed me.
  12. The Birds was also very good, but I would have Psycho and Vertigo above it on my list.
  13. North by Northwest is one of my favorite movies
  14. There's the door
  15. If you love Daniel Day-Lewis and haven't seen My Left Foot, I can't recommend it enough.
  16. Well, at least we can agree on something
  17. Name a better movie than There Will Be Blood in the past 5 years. Any answer you give will be wrong
  18. I'll pass
  19. I'd say that Paul Thomas Anderson is better than all three. All great directors though.
  20. Francis Ford Coppola or Martin Scorsese?
  21. It's foreign surreal horror movie night. Should I watch Gozu or Santa Sangre?
  22. That movie is why I'm never visiting West Virignia
  23. I saw Rango this past weekend. I enjoyed it but my wife was bored and kept asking if we could leave. I guess she's not a fan of Westerns with existential drama posing as a children's movie.
  24. They're machines, jerk
  25. I just watched The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. It was a pretty good movie with some good twists and Swedish [slur deleted]s. Definitely glad I saw it so I can tell people that the original is better once the American remake is released.
