Suzanne123 Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 A Matter of Life and Death - brilliant film
frankie Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 500 Days Of Summer, not very good imo :/ Uh oh, I've wanted to see that movie and I want to like it! Too bad you didn't.
martymcfly3004 Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Watched 'Let the right one in' It looked amazing and the kid actors are brilliant. Think it may have been a little over hyped though.
Stephanie2008 Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 Surviving Christmas - not a great film but I enjoy anything to do with Christmas
Nollaig Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 I watched Jack Frost this morning - such a sad little movie!!
Charm Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 I watched 'The Bucket List' last night. Jack Nicholson is just brilliant, nuff said.
Talisman Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 I watched The Boat That Rocked - I love that film, it gets better each time I see it. The soundtrack is quite good too.
BookJumper Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 The Abyss - long and took a bit to get going but once it got going, it really got going! It's sheer emotional genius, I blubbered so much, with him having to watch her drown even as she panics and change her mind, then slapping her around and insulting her into fighting when everyone else has accepted that she can't be revived; then he goes to 20,000 to disengage the trident nuke but hasn't got enough oxygen left to come back up so he decided to just stay there and wait to die and he types on his little pad "I love you wife" (they're divorced) :cry2:! He makes it in the end with a little help from the abyss-dwelling aliens but boy, am I traumatised! It made Armageddon look positively mirthful.
Mysterioso Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 (edited) Just got round to watching 'The Illusionist'- well- half watching! Gave up half way through as it was mindnumbingly inane with wooden acting. a dodgy script and pretty shonky SFX. Life is full of disappointments. Might have to go and watch 'The Prestige' again to make up for it and which was infinitely better (apart from the David Bowie bits!) Edited November 22, 2009 by Mysterioso
Chrissy Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 Buffy episodes, 'Hush', 'The Body' and 'Intervention'. It helped the ironing pikle go done nicely!
Kylie Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 I watched The Day the Earth Caught Fire, a good ol' 50s sci-fi flick.

Awww, so sorry you are so traumatised BJ It is a brill film though and one I could watch over and over I watched Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince today. A bit disappointed I have to say and the ending was such an anti-climax
Peacefield Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 A bunch of us watched Monster Camp the other night and laughed ourselves silly. It was a sort of documentary on people who call themselves L.A.R.P.ers (live action role players) and was just a film of them going on a weekend near Seattle to act out a battle of sorts. Those people were really into their characters!
Lucybird Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 I watched Legally Blonde and Legally Blonde 2 last night. I thought Legally Blonde was silly but the second one was even worse! Good fun though.
AbielleRose Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 I was in a Christmas mood today so I watched Holiday Inn and White Christmas. I'm debating whether or not to put in Elf right now.
BookJumper Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Awww, so sorry you are so traumatised BJIt's ok, it's a good kind of trauma, i.e. if it hadn't been a good film I wouldn't have cried like a baby. A bunch of us watched Monster Camp the other night and laughed ourselves silly. It was a sort of documentary on people who call themselves L.A.R.P.ersThis sounds brilliant; need to get hold of it methinks. I watched Legally Blonde and Legally Blonde 2 last night. I thought Legally Blonde was silly but the second one was even worse! Good fun though.I've never dared watch number two, the first one is one of my favourite films - ok, it's daft but in a goodhearted way, the message is lovely and the whole film endlessly quoteable. Watched Short Circuit tonight; it's such an awwww film (and Wall-E, lovely as it is, is such a rip-off)!
BigWords Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 The Punisher: War Zone. I really shouldn't have been surprised, but it's yet another film Marvel hasn't quite thought through. The very last line of the film made me laugh out loud, but they killed off Microchip, one of the three characters in the film (with the two detectives) that I actually gave a damn about. Completely unnecessary as far as plot goes. I should have listened to my instinct about this film, after having sat through Man-Thing and Spider-Man 3. I can look forward to Tod Browning's Freaks tomorrow night. The DVD arrived on Saturday morning, after I ordered it late on Thursday. The internet makes life so much easier.
Stephanie2008 Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Take That: The Circus Live - I have seen it twice now and only bought it yesterday
