We had a huge Shield kick on here a year and half ago or so. There are at least a half dozen people that would also give it a big thumbs up.
Ha yeah, the only reason I even asked was because I remembered all the threads from Prole and White Man. But I think that was a few seasons back, so I just wanted to make sure it doesn't go to shit halfway through or something before I invest time in it.

I'm planning on picking it up as soon as I finish S2 of Breaking Bad. I just saw, like, the best scene ever.

I *just* watched that scene yesterday randomly. Well, not randomly, I listened to the TVotR song and searched for that scene.

And yes, the finale.

Overnight

I feel like this and American Movies are very similar. Both are about filmmakers who are struggling to make it big with their respective movies and both are about filmmakers who, to some degree or another, are hopelessly delusional. The difference being, that at the end, you feel sorry Mark Borchardt. Troy Duffy got the big opportunity out of nowhere to make both of his ultimate dreams come true [making a movie and making an album] and he blows it because he's totally arrogant and a complete jerk. But Mark works day in and day out for that one shot and, even when he finishes his film and gets an ovation from the audience at the screening, you know that he's only achieved a small sliver of success. But he'll keep working at it anyway, because making movies is all he really has. Troy, with his movie, achieved a similar measure of success, but seems to just completely give up after it fails to meet the expectations that he's set for it [although, 9 years later, he's back with a sequel, for whatever that's worth]. So, breaking it down simply, Mark is hopeless loser but somehow lovable and Troy is a raging douche who'll never make it unless he changes his tune dramatically.

Neat concept, mediocre execution. The tone was inconsistent, as well.

Film felt long, which is never a good thing, but it looks like they dragged out parts of the script to hit 90 minutes because they couldn't afford anything else.

Also, the ending was way too predictable.

Movie was fucking distinguished mentally-challenged. We're supposed to believe that the military would actually go out of their way to kill every civilian on sight, even the ones who were clearly not infected? I could understand exterminating a whole crowd if some of the people were infected and some weren't, and there was no way to tell the difference, but shooting at a moving car when infected can't drive? Refusing to pick up survivors in a helicopter? Beyond stupid.

They knew there were immune carriers, didn't they? (been a while since i saw it but...)

It really is basically tailor made for him.

It's about two anti-social teenagers that find a girl in the basement of an abandoned insane asylum. It does push the envelope at times, and I can definitely see people being too weirded out by the subject matter to see it through.

Actually, having digested it, I was probably too brutal on it.

I really don't want to ruin anything for anybody, so I won't discuss it in detail, but the film does tie into Doug's discussion on the Borecast about reinventing certain sub genres of horror.

Saw G.I. Joe. Why were people impressed by Joseph-Gordon Levitt? His performance was shit. The whole movie was meh, but I didn't leave the theatre angry like I did with Transformers 2.

Also saw Black Sheep for the first time. <3 the 90s. Gonna start hitting up my Disney backlog since I never saw the films as a kid. Getting Fantasia and 2000, Pocahontas, Mulan, any other lesser-known Disney movies worth seeing?

Gran Torino was fantastic. I didn't mind the asian kid. I thought the actor did a good job conveying a timid teenager. The kid truly undergoes some great development. It's a great movie and it's absolutely fucking hilarious.

Every scene Clint is in where he's bossing someone around or talking them down (which is basically every scene :lol) is lol worthy.

The part where he tells them to get off his lawn. Oh my God. :rofl

and in non-arguing thread news I recently saw...


Painted Skin, 2008's other big Chinese market hit beside's the latest John Woo flick.  I rather liked it, but that's only because I ended up liking its very peculiar genre mix of earnest romantic melodrama/50's era monster movie/action movie.  For anyone who's not amused by a soap opera about a heart eating demon woman (performed with not a trace of irony), your mileage may vary.  And if nothing else, watching Donnie Yen act is its own reward.

Adventureland- 4 :lol out of 5 :lol

Finally got around to watching this today after enough people recommended it to me.  From the previews it looks like a kind of lame "kid works as a carny for a summer, shenanigans ensue!" flick but really it's a post-college existential crossroads kind of deal.  Really funny and well done- the director, Greg Mottola, directed Superbad as well as a couple episodes of Arrested Development and Undeclared, so he's got a good pedigree.  This was set in the 80's and while they did take advantage of playing up some of the dumb 80's stereotypes (lots of acid washed jeans and shit) they didn't overdo it.  All of the actors had good performances- even Kristen Stewart and Ryan Reynolds weren't terrible.  Jesse Eisenberg was great as usual, but he's risking getting pegged as "the awkward dude who plays directors in 80's period flicks."  Which come to think of it, I suppose there are worse things to be pegged as.

Anyway, recommended.  Also- Lisa P :drool

Yeah, Squid and the Whale was a movie largely inspired by Noah Baumbach's early life, and Adventureland was largely inspired by Greg Mottola's post-college life.

You know what isn't as bad as everyone says?  Quarantine.

Yeah, I saw [REC] before and this is the same damn movie ('cept I don't really remember the HAZMAT crew coming into the building and doing biopsies in the Spanish version) but I pulled it off Netflix's Instant Watch and was still pretty darned entertained.  I think the biggest knock I have against it is in the beginning at the firehouse.  It felt like they lingered on there much longer than the original (though again I'm not exactly sure, 'cause it's been awhile) and freakin' Jennifer Carpenter annoys the living shit out me.  Everything about her seems kind of phony, imo.  Even still with that big caveat (she's in every freakin shot of the film) I honestly like the Hollywood version.  Purists be damned.

Ray

Extremely well acted, but lacking any semblance of nuance or depth. The characters, Ray Charles aside, are flat and one-dimensional despite how much screen time they take up. Every other scene is a flashback, which breaks the flow of the movie. The movie suffers from the same problem musical biopic films face: that being they typically concentrate on the musician's famous hits and the trials they faced rather than making a story with natural flow and an overly long run time which makes the viewer want to do something else...like watch paint dry. Average visuals and an even more average script and editing. The saving grace in this film is Jamie Foxx's portrayal of the genius we know as Ray Charles, but even that isn't enough from saving this movie entering the land of Borings-ville.

2 / 5

My Blu-ray of An American Werewolf in London came in today, so I watched that over some beers tonight. Really great film, still holds up. Very entertaining, but depressing.

I kind of wished the climax was about ten or fifteen minutes longer. The brief amount of time between the point where David has that conversation with the people he killed the night prior and his final transformation feels awkward. Like something got left on the cutting room floor.

I'm trying to remember the name of a film.

I remember seeing it when I was younger. It's about a kid who takes up boxing. He's British and ends up being taken in by a group of Germans if I remember, who have children who live under nazi ideology. They kill his pet and harass him. He ends up taking boxing and learns the ropes from some black prisoner.

Fuck I don't remember its name.

Would that be...


I saw The Informant! today and I rather liked it.  Its more often funny strange then funny ha-ha, but still, pretty funny.  The central character of Mark Whitacre is a really fascinating guy and I loved how you got to know him throughout the movie.  Also, the casting was really, really good ("oh shit, is that Clancy Brown!).  While I'm sure Soderberg would be more appreciated if he didn't make so damn many films, another very odd and curiously affecting movie like this is a welcome gift.

I finally watched Let the Right One In. I made the mistake of reading the novel first so I thought that the movie didn't quite stack up. I was fine with the content that they did cut out of the film, leaving out Tommy was an obvious choice. I didn't like how they got rid of Hakan though, even though I did think it was ridiculous how he survived the fall in the book. They take a shot of him after the fall and he is still breathing, so to me it seemed like they had something else in mind for that storyline and decided to cut it. Not a huge deal in any case.

I did not care for the casting of Oskar. The main insult that the bullies use is "Piggy", but Oskar is obviously very skinny in the movie. They should have cast someone else or changed the insult to something else that would have actually made sense. I thought that they could have left the shot of Eli's truncated privates out of the movie completely. Since they didn't explain any of the story from the book, I don't know why they felt that it was necessary to show that. The dialogue as a whole seemed very sparse and unexplanatory and I think I would have had a hard time extricating the story had I not read the book.

Jody Hill develops these psychologically busted characters and lets them flirt with greatness. It'd be nice if he'd give into that urge every once in awhile. I guess Seth's character finds redemption at the end, in a twisted way.

It also has Queen in the soundtrack, so that's an A+.

The worst part is that a lot of the "laugh out loud" moments were spoiled in the trailer, but there's a lot of great, uncomfortable Curb Your Enthusiasm-type humor.

... Anna Farris is a total bitch in this movie, but she's written that way. I'm on TEAM NELL.

While watching Observe & Report, I couldn't stop thinking about how much better it would be if Danny McBride were doing Seth Rogan's role instead.  It's absolutely perfect for him.  Only makes it more obvious when he has the best part in the whole movie.

While watching Observe & Report, I couldn't stop thinking about how much better it would be if Danny McBride were doing Seth Rogan's role instead.  It's absolutely perfect for him.  Only makes it more obvious when he has the best part in the whole movie.

I agree, on both counts.

The bit with him point to the tattoo had me rolling. Danny McBride is more suited to Jody Hill's work, because he can be a total jackass who is oddly endearing.

That's never the case for Rogen, even when he's trying.

I recently saw Tron. I need to give it a second run but I'm pretty sure it usurped The Life Aquatic as my all-time favorite movie. So deliciously fun.

Eastern Promises

My brother complained the movie was predictable as fuck, thus sucked. Meh, I definitely saw most of the plot coming a mile away but this is still a great movie. Viggo is fuck awesome. Nice shots, and the violence feels...real.

way better than history of violence :piss2
