Why people get butt hurt when someone doesn't agree with their opinion about trivial stuff like movies always makes me chuckle.

Now you don't like the movie becasue Matty's Facebook friend Sally said she didn't like it, damn to her! Must kill her, she is ruining it for everyone!

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread

I may get eviscerated for this one, but I think Sucker Punch is one of the best movies I've seen this year. I can't believe I liked something that was so universally panned (and may even be nominated for a Razzie). It was marketed one way, but the story is way more dark and complex... some complained that it was too convoluted, but if you just follow along it's not that hard. Foreshadowing and symbolism abound... I catch new things every time I watch it.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread

So I finished The Perfect Host yesterday. Solid flick. I suspect itvnetop will watch it. Felt more maybe could have done with it, but then it would get potentially into that dangerous "is this movie going to end soon" territory

Anyone rising with apes this weekend? It's got some ridiculous reviews, thus far... some calling it the best action flick of the summer.

It was way better than I thought it would be when I first heard about it getting made. I'll actually be looking very much forward to the next one.

Also just got back from seeing Horrible Bosses and my sides hurt a bit from laughing so hard at times. Definitely worth a watch if you don't mind raunchy comedies. And holy crap can Jennifer Aniston still get it!!

great flick. i consider my self a harsh critic of these remakes. remember all of the originals, and loved them. but this was done well, with crazy special effects

Saw Cowboys and Aliens today.
Not a great flick but a pretty good one.
More Cowboys than Aliens but pretty good.
Daniel Craig was very good.
Good cinemetography too.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread

saw party monsters the other night. real good flick for anyone who used to go to raves in the 80s n 90s. had macauly caulkin, seth green, dylan mcdermott, the gay guy in my so called life and fez from that 70s show.

true story, looked up some interviews and real footage of the parties they threw of the real people and the actors/director did an amazing job in authenticity. alot of people think lady gaga bite her style from the real life main character michael alig, who is in jail but is coming up for parole in 2012.

Watched Red State this evening and enjoyed it. Didn't like the ending, thought he was going to go all M. Night Shyamalan but flinched. Still, one of the more interesting movies I've seen in this year.
