What Did You Watch Today?

[Jimmy]

I was entertained by the first half, but absolutely hated what ever the fuck it was that it descended into.

[brenchill]

It's entertaining but it's just not very good. It could have been so much more.

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

That's the one where Scarlet Johanssen ends up having some drug that unlocks the potential in her brain entering her blood stream and she goes bat shit crazy with it, right?

I preferred Limitless' take on the nootropic drug concept.

[Benjamin]

A Walk Among the Tombstones was pretty good, Liam Neeson was fucking awesome.

I preferred Limitless' take on the nootropic drug concept.

Oh yeah, Limitless is a lot better.

[Benji]

Bad Teacher was somewhat amusing. Jason Segel was by far the highlight along with Cameron Diaz's partner who was a Brick from Anchorman rip off.

[Benjamin]

Maps to the Stars

Holy motherfucker. Holy motherfucker. This one is absolutely fucking crazy.

I mean, it's not quite on the level of Sunset Boulevard, but it just strips away the Hollywood fame bit by bit and it is fucking insane.

[Benjamin]

John Wick

Man, 2014 really was a great year for action movies, wasn't it?

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

That got delayed in the UK, so I haven't seen it yet.

Is the plot really as simple as Alfie Allen kills Keanu Reeves' dog so he goes on a murderous rampage? Because if it is, that is amazing and I want to see it right now.

[Benji]

Dead Man on Campus was pretty poor. Dead Man's Curve/The Curve did this idea waaaaay better.

[GA!]

Whiplash! Go see Whiplash! I rate it seven billion out of ten! Don't ask how I saw Whiplash two days before its UK release!

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

I'm seeing Whiplash as soon as I finish my Friday exam. So hyped for it.

Just from seeing the adverts, I want JK Simmons to get every award.

[HC]

I missed Whiplash when it came to theaters here, and now I'm stuck waiting for the VOD release.

[Benjamin]

I just saw it. Oh shit. Oh man. Oh. FUCK. MY BRAIN IS NOT WORKING. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK.

[Benjamin]

Okay, my brain is working a little bit more now. The drum solo during the credits just ended.

OH DEAR GOD THAT WAS AMAZING. I FUCKING TEARED. That is the closest any film is getting to Boyhood this year, guaranteed.

[Jimmy]

Cannot wait to finish my dissertation so I can finally go watch Birdman, Foxcatcher and Whiplash. And then The Theory of Everything if I get some spare time.

[TKz]

Birdman, Foxcatcher and Whiplash are high on my list. I think I might try and throw on one when Mrs. TKz passes out on the weekend.

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

I plan on seeing all four of the films Jimmy mentioned this weekend. I'll be sure to add to the high praise to further taunt you

[SRN]

Whiplash! Go see Whiplash! I rate it seven billion out of ten! Don't ask how I saw Whiplash two days before its UK release!

Two days? Pffft, I just watched it a month before it really hits theaters here and for half the price! Thanks, cinema in my hometown! Also, it is pretty much better than whatever you other guys just watched. Now I just need to watch Birdman and Foxcatcher and I can go back to the Music forum.

[HC]

So I finally caved and watched Frozen. It was cute, and I enjoyed how it turned a lot of Disney tropes on their heads. Not GOD status like Aladdin or Hunchback of Notre Dame, and I don't understand the cultural phenomenon at all, but then again I'm not the target audience.

I did not see that Russo Swerve coming though.
