jhiddleston Posted January 13, 2016 Posted January 13, 2016 I recently watched The Force Awakens. Was really cool! Not the biggest SW fan, but I liked this the best out of all the other movies. Quote
woolf woolf Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 I watched Polytechnique, directed by Denis Villeneuve. It was difficult to endure, but that was its purpose. Quote
Athena Posted January 15, 2016 Author Posted January 15, 2016 Yesterday we watched K-20, a Japanese film. I was pleasantly surprised by it. I wasn't sure if I would like it, but I did . Quote
geordie9 Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Evil Dead 1 & 2, horrror classics! Now for number 3!! Quote
chesilbeach Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 Just come back from seeing Star Wars: The Force Awakens for the second time. This time we saw it on a big, big screen with Dolby Atmos sound, in a proper dark cinema with comfortable seats, no tall people in front of me who kept whispering to each other and it was a fantastic experience. We came out and both agreed we could have happily sat there and watched it all over again immediately! Quote
Kylie Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 I watched The Godfather (which I've seen once before) and then fell asleep partway through The Godfather II (not the movie's fault). Quote
More reading time required Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 Labyrinth - my 3 and a 1/2 year old loved it. Quote
vodkafan Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 Started watching a horror film called Shrooms but abandoned this and watched Malificent again instead Quote
chesilbeach Posted January 17, 2016 Posted January 17, 2016 Watched Moulin Rouge! yesterday afternoon and cried my eyes out, then in the evening, we watched Galaxy Quest as the start of our Alan Rickman-a-thon. Quote
Peacefield Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 I watched Close Encounters of the Third Kind, directed by Steven Spielberg. I liked it, another good science fiction film. Close Encounters is in my top 10, Woolf, I love that movie!! I watched Sense & Sensibilities over the weekend and cried during the Col. Brandon scenes Quote
chesilbeach Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 I watched Sense & Sensibilities over the weekend and cried during the Col. Brandon scenes I've got that lined up for next weekend ... it will be bittersweet to watch it again. Quote
Anna Begins Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 We bought Goosebumps and rented Home Alone today Quote
Athena Posted January 19, 2016 Author Posted January 19, 2016 We bought Goosebumps and rented Home Alone today I'm curious about Goosebumps, hope it will be nice . I love Home Alone (1 and 2), I watched it (them) lots of times as a child. Quote
Anna Begins Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 I'm curious about Goosebumps, hope it will be nice . I love Home Alone (1 and 2), I watched it (them) lots of times as a child. It's sort of a loud movie, but I was entertained. I watched Home Alone a lot while growing up too! Last night, I watched: Forrest Gump Top Gun and Rock Star with Mark Wahlberg (one of my favorites) Quote
Athena Posted January 20, 2016 Author Posted January 20, 2016 It's sort of a loud movie, but I was entertained. I watched Home Alone a lot while growing up too! That's true, it is a bit loud. Glad you liked it. Yesterday we re-watched Atlantis: The Lost Empire (the Disney film). I was very tired and Michael wanted to rewatch this film. It was nice to see the film again. It was a bit hard for me to concentrate since I was tired (I did a lot yesterday) but Michael wore headphones so that helped me a lot (I just read the subtitles). Quote
vodkafan Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 Ong-Bak. Hadn't watched that for a long time, I enjoyed it. Quote
Brian. Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 Ong-Bak. Hadn't watched that for a long time, I enjoyed it. Great movie, I really should watch it again. Quote
Onion Budgie Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 84 Charing Cross Road, starring Anne Bancroft and Anthony Hopkins. I had just finished reading the book. I was wondering how on earth one could successfully dramatise a book of letters to and from a bookshop, but they managed it fairly well. I watched the film on YouTube, but I think it cut off the final 10 minutes. Boo! Quote
chesilbeach Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 We continued our Alan Rickman tribute last night and watched Sense and Sensibility. Can't deny, shed a few tears, but it's a fabulous film. Quote
Brian. Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Finally saw Star Wars, and I'm glad I waited as there were only 4 of us in the screen. I ended up enjoying it far more than I thought I would, the amount of hype surrounding it had me worried. Quote
JeanW Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 As an oldie on here my taste is probably rather different from many of you but for any other oldies, we went to see 45 Years, with Tom Courteney and Charlotte Rampling (who received an Oscar nomination for her role). Not a film for those who like action and fast moving plot but beautifully acted and very moving. Quote
Emmabbooks Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I've just looked at the trailer for "45 Years" JeanW, and it looks very sad. Is that the case? Great cast. I've just seen "A Walk in the Woods" - Bill Bryson. Brilliant, very funny and great entertainment (quite a lot of bad language and some sex - just a warning). I'm pleased to see that back in January somebody referred to the film of The Book Thief. Didn't know that was available - the book is on my "to read" shelf, so once read, I may well look for the film. Next film at our film club is "Carol" - not heard great reports of that though. Quote
vodkafan Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I just got back from the cinema seeing Daddy's Home. Not a huge fan of Will Farrell, but this film was quite thoughtful for a comedy and didn't end up resorting to violence like many seem to. Quote
