General Movie Thread

Mars Attacks is fantastic. I never think to watch it, but when it's on it's a laugh riot.

[Ant]

Re-watched Jack Reacher and, despite the flaw of the tall, blonde haired Reacher being replaced by a 5ft 6inch Tom Cruise, it was actually decent movie.

I used to hate Cruise but lately i have come round to the guy a bit

I've defended the Paranormal Activity films regularly, but I swear that if 4 is just a fucking generic teen horror film with a handcam, I'm joining the crowd against it.

It's pretty fucking generic. You won't miss anything by skipping it and I'd suggest you do, it'll just sour you on the franchise. It doesn't help that it's trying to follow arguably the best one yet.

[Benji]

Yeah that was total cack. The third was tremendous, but that might've been the most boring and generic horror film I've ever seen.

[Ant]

I'm sure number 5 will try to outdo it.

Did you see the post credits "scene"?

I'm a sucker for Tom Cruise. But I'd be all for him doing more stuff like Magnolia and less Knight & Day stuff.

It also baffles me that the same Adam Sandler can make Jack & Jill and also be in Punch Drunk Love, which is one of my favourite films of all time. Actors are weird.

You can't say tom was the worst part of night and day.

As much as people hate on his real life, he sure can entertain.

[Jimmy]

I wasn't saying he was bad in it, I was saying I wish he made the choice to do more stuff like Magnolia. I think Cruise is incredibly likeable - I'd just love to see him challenge himself a bit more with roles like that because the result was fantastic.

[EWB's Best Poster.]

Needs more Les Grossman IMHO.

The key with Sandler is that he's honestly not a bad actor, he's just an awful writer lately. Which is a shame, because a lot of his earlier films were great fun.

It's all in the hips.

On an unrelated note, this made me chuckle:

[TKz]

Goldblum or bust.

[livid]

He'll probably be busy with Independence Day 2, though.

[TKz]

Is that 2015 too? Man. Year of the Goldblum. He's uh, making an uh, uh, come uh... back.

[livid]

Yeah man, everything is coming out in 2015.

[TKz]

Holy shit.

Terminator

Avengers 2

Jurassic Park

Assassins Creed

Independence Day 2

Pirates 5

Fantastic Four

Ant Man

Hunger Games Part 4

Finding Dory

Justice League/Man of Steel 2 maybe.

[livid]

Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous. I think I'm gonna have to start saving my money now.

[TKz]

That's like, £110 to see every film.

[Jimmy]

Or just get a Cineworld Unlimited card.

Yes, I do work for them.

Yes, I do work for them.

I'd probably pay as much in petrol getting to the nearest cineworld as I would otherwise. >_>

[livid]

It would also be pretty pointless for me to buy, not living in the UK and all.
