  1. A little late, but, go watch "Drive" on netflix. 2011. Best film ive seen in many years and im a film buff

    I felt it was too slow paced, it really bored me. A lot of people Ryan Gosling's character to the Man With No Name, and I feel that was unjustified. I would just call it an ok movie.

  2. There is a good new Jack Black movie currently streaming on Netflix. 'Bernie' a dark comedy based on a true story. JB actually got a Golden Globe Nomination for best actor in a comedy/musical. Movie was nicely done.

    When he's used correctly, Jack Black is a better actor than he's given credit for.

  3. Watched Be Kind Rewind last night. Mos and Jack Black made a pretty good pair and the soundtrack had a few gems as well. Quality movie.

    Wow, someone besides me actually saw that movie. It is fairly enjoyable, with the scenes where they're 'remaking' the movies being the standouts.

  4. Oh Lawd. First the Walking Dead and now this? The guy named MilitantX liked this movie. Nuff said. Smh

    People still whine about Mark Twain using that word so extensively in Huckleberry Finn. I'm not surprised by the reaction nor is he alone in his opinion.

  5. I have mixed feelings on Django Unchained, it's just crazy and well made (usually my kind of movie) but it just comes off like Quentin wanted to get all the N words out of his system.

    I thought it was fantastic. It had nothing to do with Tarantino wanting to say the N word as many times as possible, it was about giving an accurate representation of the time period. In all honesty, he probably went lighter with things than he should have to give a truly accurate depiction of the South. Waltz, Foxx, and DiCaprio were all excellent in their roles. It's my third favorite film of the year, behind The Avengers and The Dark Knight Rises.

  6. It won't be disappointing.. No way..

    May not be as good as LOTR but its pretty much impossible to repeat that great of a series

    I dunno man, Peter Jackson's films following LotR have me doubting his ability as a filmmaker. I think these sweeping epics are the only thing he can direct, with the way he uses the camera and his taste for long bouts of exposition. I already fear that the series overall is going to be weighed down with too much nonsense from The Silmarillion. Maybe I'm just trying to temper my expectations so I'm not disappointed, but Jackson does not have the same magic touch that Nolan or Tarantino have.

  7. Since House is gone, my favorite network shows are Community, Castle, and The Big Bang Theory. On cable the only things I really follow closely are South Park and The League, although I mean to check out Hell on Wheels. I'm really enjoying The Newsroom right now, but it's too early to call that a favorite. The best show overall right now is probably Game of Thrones though. I also watch New Girl, Modern Family, Happy Endings, Suburgatory, and Person of Interest. And Top Gear (UK) is amazing.

    Workaholics has been gaining a lot of traction recently, but I can't get into it. It's like a dirty version of The Office, but it's still just as unfunny as the clean version. Breaking Bad is another one I don't understand, that show is so incredibly boring yet it's so highly praised.

  8. Goodfellas sucked? Your opinions have now been rendered invalid for all time.

    But it's so boring. The one good scene was where Joe Pesci goes off on him about saying he's funny. And it didn't need the constant narration either. I couldn't get into it.

    And yes The Departed sucked. He just kills everyone at the end, how is that not a cop out?

  9. I just saw Shutter Island for the first time.

    Anyone else ever see it? It was a good movie, definitely one that I have to watch twice.

    I don't want to accept that Leanardo was crazy the whole time even though it was obvious at the beginning. I kind of just want to hold on to the conspiracy that the doctors were really just evil lol. Kind of like he does throughout the whole film...

    Scorsese amazes me once again!

    I hated that movie, and it's a perfect illustration of why Scorsese sucks. You pointed it out, he set up the story one way to ruin it in the last five minutes. The guy can't close, every movie I've seen has either sucked throughout (as in Goodfellas) or been ruined by his cop out endings (as in The Departed). He might be the most overrated director of all time.

  10. Actually watched this last night. Its pretty funny at times but it overall it fell a bit short. I actually prefer Nacho Libre over Casa De Mi Padre.

    Both play similar roles. The stupid person on a mission.

    Isn't that the only role Ferrell ever plays? I'm pretty sure his most intellectually capable character was Frank the Tank.
