Movie Thread

so I've been watching movies..

just finished Edge of Darkness. missed the first bit, caught it right when the girl got shot. a couple of parts I liked, but the plot was too muddled. one of those could have been awesome but actually kindof sucked films.

yesterday watched Easy A. mildly funny, emma stone is awesome and I love her, but otherwise forgettable film.

last night watched Volcano. good cheesy hollywood disaster flick. best past is at the end when the kid says "look, they all look the same" I always thought that was a great scene and eerily prophetic of four years later.

this afternoon started to watch Dead Poets Society. I guess I've changed, because it was ok when I was in high school, but now I thought it was pretty dumb. didn't finish, switched to edge of darkness.

^Classic Leslie Nielson!

I watched The Expendables this weekend, and fully enjoyed it, and was actually better than I thought it would be.

Same here. I was able to excuse many dumb things because it had actors I liked in it. I'd still rate it above The Losers.

About the end of The Expendables > When they show Gunner back with the crew at the end; was that supposed to show that he was only faking the double cross to get inside info or something? I didn't understand that part. <

Ninja reply!

I dunno, i thought that was weird too. Figured maybe they let bygones be bygones, or something

>I just took it as he was off the drugs and his friends accepted him back in the group. Nice friends since he did try to kill them and all.<

I watched "The Fourth Kind" over this last weekend. It was creepy at some points but it more or less just pissed me off. If it's supposed to be real footage at some points but the camera gets interference from the aliens why do they do the whole switchy frame thing? Just let the GD thing play for what it is. And after that dude drops his wife I'm sure the snipers would've taken him out before he got to his kids. C'mon.

It's worth watching for the eerie factor I guess.

Our kid likes dinosaurs, so I had her watch the first Jurassic Park the other day. I love that movie, it is one of my all time favorites. I haven't checked out the other two. I suspect them to be more action and less logic (even though the second one is based on a book as well), but I'll still check them out.

For some reason, I know of a bunch of people that watched that movie this weekend. weird
