Anyway we can use it to talk about movies we've seen recently and whether thy were good or crap and recommendations and what not.

Last night I watched Adaptation and it was really good.

For some reason I had thought it was about a writer who starts writing a book about himself and what he wites starts coming true. It wasn't really like that, not in the way I was expecting, but it still kind of was.

Anyway after a bit of a slow and "oh, maybe this isn't the movie I thought it was" start, it got really interesting and by the end I was really impressed. It's worth checking out.

The other movie that originally inspired this thread was The Butterfly Effect. I know everyone has probably already seen it but I saw it for the first time the other week and it was fucking amazing! By the end of it I was just lying in bed like a goofball with my mouth open as I figured out how everything fit into place and what everything meant, etc. etc. It was just awesome; more movies should be like this.

That's all for now, it would be good if other people are interested enough to post in here too. Talk about the movies I've mentioned or talk about a movie you just saw. It doesn't have to be detailed just get to it.

Yay

I had literally no idea what it was about or if it was going to be good or whatever, but it was great. Really brutal (and gory bean), it's back in the days of the Aztecs (at least i think it was them).. I don't really wanna say much to give anything away cos i thought it was better not knowing anything about it then going in there with an idea of what happened.

But for the 139 minutes it went neither Fulla or me weren't not entertained, I didn't even check my watch once! Definately go see it if ya get the chance..

do we rate it brendan?

4/5 beans.

I've never heard of Apocalypto, whn you were talking bout it I just assumed it was some superhero movie. Heh, guess I was wrong.

You can rent the space inside my mind at least until the price becomes to high.

I watched Teen Wolf on Sunday night.. although I enjoyed watching it and gota few laughs (mostly at the movie, not with it) it really wasa pretty crap movie. Just so many things that made me question character motives etc. How come nobody questioned the fact he was a wolf??? Everyone just accepted it. Hmm..

And then last night i watched Teen Wolf Too which was even worse. It used some of the same characters (only some of whom were the same actors...) and had the exact same plot as the first one. Every little plot point was there, even the sub-plot was the same. Onlythis time, Teen Wolf wasthe original wolf's cousin and he was starting at college! Hilarity ensues. Or not. Oh, andalso, this time, instead of being a basketball champ... he's a boxer. I guess that's how you make a movie different.

You seem to like randomly bad movies, and this lives up to that tag.

Saw the previews a couple of weeks ago for it, thought it would be pretty lame and crappy.. Was I mistaken! Was non-stop laughs without a dull moment all through it. With an all star cast (Ben Stiller, Dick Van Dyke, Mickey Rooney, Owen Wilson, Ricky Gervais, Robin Williams) to boot, it was just really funny and i genuinely enjoyed the whole movie.

5/5 beans
