Rattenkonig Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 I watched 2081, which is a Kurt Vonnegut adaptation. It's only a short film (25 minutes or so). It was... Ok.
Kylie Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 Transformers I feel your pain Weave. I went with my ex to see Transformers 2 and it was possibly the worst movie I've ever seen. It was hideously terrible. I was gaping in disbelief most of the way through it. My ex never lived it down.
Guest Eliza1 Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 I watched Skyline on Saturday night. I thought it was ok and I was preparing to be disappointed in what looked like was going to be a crappy ending. But then with fifteen minutes to go there was a major turnaround. Good Cliffhanger ending.

Good Cliffhanger ending. Yes, apparently it's the first in what may become a series? I might watch it soon. Thanks!
pickle Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 I want to go and see Monsters but its not playing in my local conema so I will have to go down to Southampton has anyone seen it yet and is it worth it?
pontalba Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 The Next Three Days Hard to call, I liked it, good action, but was still somewhat disappointed in it.
Talisman Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 (edited) Inception - very good it was too. Edited December 9, 2010 by Talisman
poppyshake Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 The Voyage of the Dawn Treader in 3D and I liked it .. wasn't as good as The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe but was better than Prince Caspian. Actor who plays Eustace is very good, steals every scene he's in.
Ophelia Posted December 10, 2010 Posted December 10, 2010 Getting into the Christmas spirit by watching 'Scrooge' (the Alistair Sim version)
lexiepiper Posted December 10, 2010 Posted December 10, 2010 It's Complicated, I actually rather enjoyed it
Kylie Posted December 11, 2010 Posted December 11, 2010 I watched Christmas with the Kranks last night. I'd never seen it before and it was reasonably enjoyable. I may have shed a tear or two at the end.
Peacefield Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 Kylie, Megan Follows plays an excellent Anne and I never tire of watching that series. Before I got the DVD I wore out many a VHS tape watching it over and over! I told you I went on vacation to Prince Edward Island, didn't I? I saw the Harry Potter film last night. I've never seen one of them in the theatre before so this was a treat. I've seen them all on DVD but thought I better see the final one at the theatre and get the full experience . It was excellent, and I'm excited to see what happens next! I groaned at a lot of the trailers though . The Green Lantern? That film with Nicholas Cage? Red Riding Hood? Seriously? Ugh. At home I've watched the Eclipse DVD one or possibly six times since getting it last weekend
Kylie Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 I agree about Megan Follows. I can't imagine a better Anne. She's beautiful and has loads of spirit. I'll have to track down the 3rd one to watch. I hate that they aired the first 2 on TV but don't seem to have any intention of following through with the third. Harry Potter is definitely excellent on the big screen.
chesilbeach Posted December 14, 2010 Posted December 14, 2010 Went to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 this afternoon. Lovely in that there were only three other people in the cinema apart from me and my friend, but my word, it was long! Someone put a review on Twitter summing it up as "Harry On Camping" which I thought was rather apt!
Lucybird Posted December 14, 2010 Posted December 14, 2010 The Boat that Rocked. Really enjoyed it, wish I'd seen it sooner.
lauraloves Posted December 14, 2010 Posted December 14, 2010 Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King
pickle Posted December 15, 2010 Posted December 15, 2010 Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King I might watch this tonight as I am babysitting and doing the ironing
Amesy Posted December 15, 2010 Posted December 15, 2010 I saw a preview screening of Tron: Legacy (courtesy of sky) last Tuesday. Staggeringly beautiful film and does the original a great deal of justice. And the soundtrack is divine. I recommend anyone try and listen to it.
diemperdidi Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 Disney's Hercules. Recently had an operation and had to rest because of the anaesthetic. Cue the watching of many kids films. Also had a Lord of the Rings marathon which was absolutely brilliant. It's so quotable!
frankie Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 The Producers. I blame Kylie, being the huge Gene Wilder fan that she is!
mummymunt Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 I saw the first 45 minutes of Predators, but fell asleep three times so had to go to bed. Will have to rent it again to see the second half.
Lucybird Posted December 17, 2010 Posted December 17, 2010 Watched The Changeling last night, really enjoyed it although it dragged on a little towards the end
Kylie Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 The Producers. I blame Kylie, being the huge Gene Wilder fan that she is! What did you think? I really hope you liked it. I watched a movie called We're Here to Help last night, based on a true story of a NZ man who spent years fighting the tax department. The amount of red tape and bureaucracy he had to fight was amazing. He was bankrupted and told that he owed Inland Revenue over $900k, but eventually it was found that they owed him $64k. He got back on his feet and, in a lovely twist, bought the building that housed the Inland Revenue. I found myself comparing the movie to Kafka's The Trial, and sure enough, a bit later the characters commented on it themselves. Afterwards I Wiki'd the guy who the story was based on and found out that he was declared bankrupt (again!) just a few weeks ago.
