really? come on, like that hasn't been done a million times already. I was actually incredibly happy it didn't go that route (not to mention, it would have totally undermined the entire point of the film if the machine ended up bad)

Spoiler

it just didn't make sense to me that this computer kept violating it's own programming. I was hoping another Sam Bell, or the original, was going to help, but not to the extent that a bunch of clones were awakened, three would've been enough

the computer was programmed to "help Sam Bell"... its just that it evolved to the logical conclusion of what it actually meant to help him. Something that the corporation didn't intend/think would happen

The Other Guys. This started out relatively good with some offbeat chuckles and unexpected scenes, but then it just fell off. Some of the obscure humor just seemed really forced and it didn't help with plot cohesion. I don't understand all the hoopla for this flick.

Saw it on Friday and thought it was pretty garbage. Had 2 of the worst actors in it (Marky Mark & Samuel Jackson).

Samuel had one line in the beginning of the film that was maybe the worst and most forced line of all time.

He had a few lines there in the beginning where I kind of cringed.


I thought the movie was pretty funny overall though.

I thought The Other Guys was a good comedy. Not too wacky or zany like a lot of other Will Ferrel movies. Plus, Michael Keaton was gold. I hope he gets back to comedy.

Saw the movie Devil, awesome movie. For some reason i tend to like Night's movie, the only one i couldn't bare to watch was The Happening. However i think this one benefits because he's not the director but just the writer and producer. Having a different director made it interesting.

Plot wise, very simple plot, 5 people stuck in an elevator while one of them is the actual devil whose picking them off. Really strong emotions arise from all the characters and its a lot of fun guessing which one was the bad one.

I'm on my old school kung fu theater kick right now. I've watched "The five elemental Ninjas" a couple of times in the last few days. I've also looked at "Shinobi, Under the blade" a few times.

Just bought "IP Man" yesterday but I haven't cracked open the package yet.

I swear I have close to 50 old school kung fu flick dvds. I love em. The wife hates em. I thought that she would be interested seeing that she is Japanese, but no joy, lol.

I think I'm feeling the zombie urge about to kick in though. Dawn of the Dead remake is my ****!

Just watched Salt.

Pretty good movie overall! Some nice action with a good story and decent twist.

I don't normally like Angelina Jolie but she played the part well here and I've always rated Liev Schreiber and enjoyed his roles.

They have to make a sequel though...

I swear, for the life of me I thought you were talking directly to a member on this site called "RocknRolla" when you said this post, so I thought you were talking about some other movie (maybe like The Bank Job or something). I even went back so many pages to find out what movie you were referring to and I found another person I thought was talking to a member named "RockandRolla" (at least that's how they named it). Took me maybe ten minutes to figure out that you guys were talking about the name of the movie itself, not the name of a member lol.

I will have to check this out.

I watched Iron Man earlier today. It was much better than I thought it would be. I'll have to check out part 2.

Finally got around to seeing The A-team last week. I enjoyed it despite it's flaws and it had a bunch of actor's I really like in it (Liam Neeson, Bradley Cooper, Jessica Biel). Good harmless action movie with good special effects and some pretty cheesy / lame dialogue. Pretty much what i expected and overall I thought it was enjoyable.

Night Shift. One of Michael Keaton's first movies and probably the first time we saw Henry Winkler out of the Fonz gear. Didn't realize it was a Ron Howard directed effort. Still holds up. Of course has the classic M.K. explaining the word "prostitution". Lots of good moments.

I saw Fight Club, which of course is a great movie

recently I also saw Lost in Translation, which is a great movie. I liked it alot, especially how subtle everything about it is. You have to be watching for all these nuances. What I liked most about the movie was how you didn't have to hear a word to know what the characters were thinking and feeling. Bill Murray is great and so is Scarlett (helps that she looks good) Loved the score, loved the style, loved the setting, loved everything about it.

I saw The Social Network and I was surprised at how much good it was. I really want to see Justin Timberlake in more movies now.

I had no idea that the guy who played Eduardo is playing Peter Parker, that makes me even more excited for the new Spiderman.

Prince of Persia. I wish I could have tapped my magic knife and gone back in time about 2 hours..... so I could get those back.
