    2010 Year end lists

    I know this isn't a request topic, but did anything Frightened Rabbit, Mumford And Sons, The Tallest Man On Earth, or Damien Rice-esque come out this year? I really dig slower rock/folk, and need more of it. Any suggestions?
  3. I COMPLETELY agree. Which is why I'm still awake at almost 3:00 AM. Fuck me. (N)
  4. I saw Eraserhead for the second time last night. It's not quite as fun on the second watch, but still fucked up enough to get a reaction out of me. Seriously, what the fuck? It's pretty hard for me to give this a rating, but I think if I did, it'd be something like 7.5/10. Those little chickens always creep the shit out of me.
  5. Alright, I've finally given into the whole Anime thing. I've seen most of Hayao Miyazaki's filmography, and I've been watching a lot of Dragonball Z and Death Note. Other than what I've listed, I haven't seen anything else anime-related (other than obvious childhood favorites like Pokemon, Digimon, and Yu-Gi-Oh). I'm looking for some shows/movies that contain a fair amount of violence and action, but have nothing to do with giant mechs, or anything TOO sci-fi heavy. Any suggestions? I've been told I'd enjoy Black Lagoon and Blood+, but I haven't found the time to check those out. Thanks!
  6. Inception - I think people putting this film on a God tier just killed it for me. To be honest, I didn't think it was anything more than just good. Batman Begins is still the only Nolan film I've ever loved (I still haven't seen The Prestige or Insomnia). I've already been called an idiot by two people for NOT liking Inception. I just don't understand the hype for this one. It had some great acting, memorable moments, but at the end of the day nothing clicked with me. 6.5-7/10. Maybe higher upon a re-watch.
  7. Except for Metacritic. >_<
  8. Napoleon Dynamite and Billy Madison come to mind. Both some of my favorite comedies of all time.
  9. The saddest thing about this thread is that nobody has mentioned how awesome Step Brothers was. Probably on the same level as Anchorman AND Talledega Nights for me.
  10. I know everybody has been hoping for Christopher Nolan to finally get the respect that he deserves and win Best Picture/Director, but Declan O'Brien's epic is going to Slumdog this years Academy Awards. By the looks of it, Sharktopus is the Jaws of the 21st century. Spielberg, you better be taking some notes.
  11. I miss your laugh. I miss your scent. I miss your musk. When this all gets sorted out, I think you and me should get an apartment together.

  12. You're so wise. You're like a miniature Buddha, covered in hair.
  13. Alien is a better movie than Aliens. Agreed to the fullest extent. Despite being a very fun and entertaining film, Aliens is quite overrated in my opinion.
  14. Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea - This was my first exposure to Studio Ghibli, and I plan on watching everything they've ever put out after seeing this film. I've never been into the whole "Anime" thing, but this movie was absolutely breathtaking. I can't believe that I didn't see it before now. I recommend it for anybody looking to get into Studio Ghibli, or just Hayao Miyazaki. 8.5/10, and probably higher on repeat viewings. I plan on checking out Spirited Away as soon as possible. Brothers - I've been waiting to see Gyllenhaal and Mcguire together in a film for some time now. I just always thought that they'd mesh fairly well. And well...They actually did. The movie wasn't fantastic or anything, but it was definitely decent for what it was. I was a bit turned off as I felt that they were exploiting a shell shocked man, and making him out to look like an evil son of a bitch, but I think I've gotten over it a little bit. Also, Natalie Portman looked stunning as always. 7/10.
  15. Lately, Black Dynamite has become a current favorite. It literally has everything a comedy needs to be successful. Great pacing, hilarious dialogue, and badass action sequences. It is honestly the funniest movie I've ever seen in my life. As for all-time favorite, I find myself going with Tony Scott's True Romance. Everybody in the movie does a fantastic job, not to mention the cast being absolutely stacked. Every actor in the films shines, and the script and score are terrific. Such an underrated film.
