that was one of those movies where i got the twist right after he got out. the whole thing was a waste of time for me.

I hear they're remaking Oldboy. Coming out next year starring.............. Samuel L Jackson.

There's also Josh Brolin, Elizabeth Olson and Michael Imperioli.

But..... Spike Lee is directing it.

This could be great or God awful.

Been watching a bunch of film noir/crime thrillers for my film class lately. Double Indemnity, Murder My Sweet & Scarlet Street are the most recent ones I've seen... good stuff.

Cabin in the Woods was pretty good. nice to see something fresh in such an over done genre

I was so pumped for this movie and to me it let me down.


***Spoiler***


Instead of blowing up the world in the end why not play it out over a few movies? Each chapter the subjects could have picked a different scenario in the basement thus we see them battle a different creature.

To me it was 13 Ghost with a bit of a twist but essential the same movie. There was nothing ground breaking about this movie.

It said spoiler before the text. Do you drive by Bridge Out signs as well?

it depends, did they put the sign 10 feet in front of the bridge? but seriously, i stopped reading when i saw cabin in the woods. just noticed the spoiler warning

white text is the closed gate that forces you to have to park, get out of your car, and open - compared to your bridge out sign

Agreed, just got back from seeing it in 3d and I enjoyed myself quite thoroughly. Obviously going to be pretty light on a plot but the action was brutal and some sequences were pretty awesomely shot IMO. Might wind up owning this on bluray down the line.

Saw Here Comes The Boom and it was a pretty good movie. Funny feel good movie. Is there some ridiculous cramp that happens? Yes! However, you can let it pass because it works.

If you're a teacher or you know one, you'll appreciate it!
