Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
i'm a django fan, not like an all time favorite, but it was solid. a bit slow at times, but not bad.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
i didn't think django was all that amazing either. i've actually seen the originals too, so i don't know if that changed anything while I watched the remake.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
Django (1966) - IMDb
1966. one of MANY spaghetti westerns. (fistful of dollar, once upon a time in the west, good bad ugly django etc). despite the award, it's not far off of the 1960's westerns. I guess a lot of people just don't remember them or haven't seen them. I think once upon a time in the west is a much better movie overall. Last edited by That Guy; 04-22-2013 at 07:22 PM. |

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
Add me to the Django "meh" crowd... pacing was a huge issue for me. Django was Tarantino's first film without his regular editor (who died a few years back, while hiking). I think it showed. Loved Waltz's performance, however.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
Interesting. I completely forgot that his editor died. I felt that the editing wasn't an issue, a lot of movies that run for over 2 hours have their slow parts. It's a movie, it's an opinion.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
I thought Django was pretty damn good,I thought all 3 performances by the lead actors were Oscar worthy.The only problem I had with the editing was in one part of the movie a scence seemed like it skipped a sequence,I thought the movie messed up when I saw it in the theatre but the dvd did the same thing.I think it was somewhere in the ku klux clan scenes

Sometimes a movie is so hyped it can never live up to the hype. I went in thinking this was going to be awesome and it fell flat for me.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
Saw Oblivion last Saturday.
Very good movie. Good sci-fi stuff. His female British counterpart is a total babeorama.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
Agree with you. Very good movie. A bit derrivative of other sci-fi movies, but it didnt bother me until the very end. Still Cruise delivered an epic line to make it worth it.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
Nope, haven't seen it, but heard good things about it. If you saw Drive with Ryan Gosling theres a movie coming out directed by the guy who did Drive and stars Gosling called Only God Forgives. Supposed to be one of the big hits this year.
