What DVD / Video did you watch last night? (pt2)

[Lea]

Watched all 7 episodes on DVD of Cashmere Mafia. Sort of like Sex and The City for women in their 40s.

 

[Orang Utan]

Hiroshima Mon Amour - great stuff
and I tried to watch Kiss Me Deadly but the DVD is broken

 

[foo]

that McKintyre posh chap's stand-up.

i expected to be irritated all the way though, but he had some quite funny material.

 

[sojourner]

that McKintyre posh chap's stand-up.

i expected to be irritated all the way though, but he had some quite funny material.

I really like him


We watched The Strangers - which was an okay psychological horror, and The Pied Piper of Hutzovina, which led me to feeling that Eugene can be quite a cockend, or maybe it was the camerawoman's jealousy over his new chick that led to that perspective Still, some cracking jams with various gypsies

 

[100% masahiko]

The Tattooist - Average...felt more like a TV movie.

City of Men - Inferior follow up to a classic. Utter crap tbh.

Pineapple Express - Do you remember those Pryor/Wilder comedy-thrillers from the 80s? This was pretty much the same except they added cannabis into the formula.

The Crew - A real shit British gangster flick. I cannot even begin how crap this was. Even with the added bonus of lesbians and strippers, it still failed. Terrible crime of a movie.

 

[Yetman]

that McKintyre posh chap's stand-up.

i expected to be irritated all the way though, but he had some quite funny material.

I actually found him quite funny too, even if he does sound exactly like Edward from the shop in the league of gentlemen

I watched Spider, fucking ace film Underworld, much better than expected, nice winding storyline, and FUCK ME JUST REMEMBERED.....national geographic channels most amazing moments, while tripping to fuck. That was nuts. Recommended if you like that sort of shit

Also watched a couple of episodes of the wire, struggling with it tbh.....

 

[kyser_soze]

E 1-3 of True Blood, I am Legend (OK-ish), Star Fleet, Heroes E20...

 

[Lea]

Watched Haunting in Connecticut at the cinema yesterday. The photos of the dead people reminds me of another film I have seen but can't remember the title. It was OK but nothing exceptional.

 

[ViolentPanda]

All seven episodes of "Children of the Stones" (again). I keep forgetting just how fucking brilliant it was for a late 1970s children's telly programme.

 

[kyser_soze]

An episode of 'Real Time with Bill Maher' - I downloaded 'Religulous' and wanted to get a flavour for who he is...

3 episodes of Star Fleet.

 

[Orang Utan]

Sicko - the Michael Moore universal health care thing - equally irritating and inspiring

 

[QueenOfGoths]

All seven episodes of "Children of the Stones" (again). I keep forgetting just how fucking brilliant it was for a late 1970s children's telly programme.

I remember being scared witless by that as a kid. Great programme

We watched "The Mist" - adapted from the Stephen King novella - very good. Quite frightening and shocking at times and it does make the unbelievable seem believable. Also quite uncompromising in certain ways as well. I enjoyed it

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Is that the same as the fog?

 

[Sadken]

An episode of 'Real Time with Bill Maher' - I downloaded 'Religulous' and wanted to get a flavour for who he is...

I'm a big fan of his & I watch that show most weeks. Really liked the film too.

Things I saw recently:

Pineapple Express again and it was better this time by far.

Role Models - Very funny in parts and Paul Rudd is a bit of a dude in a sort of "new Vince Vaughn" kind of way.

 

[Orang Utan]

Is that the same as the fog?

no, though there is a remake of John Carpenter's The Fog out.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Is that the same as the fog?

no, though there is a remake of John Carpenter's The Fog out.

It confused me too. Not seen the remake of "The Fog" and not sure if I saw the original (I think so but years ago)

I'd recommend "The Mist" though, very good

 

[Orang Utan]

the original is rather good, but the new one doesn't look too good. There was also a James Herbert book called The Fog but it was a totally different story.

 

[Daniel]

Watching Step Brothers atm, lotsa lulz so far

 

[Sadken]

"It's the fuckin Catalina Wine Mixer"

"Call me Night Hawk"

"I'm Derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrek and I can sing hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh
and I can sing hiiiiiiiiiiiiii-iiiiiiiiiiiiii-iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh"

Veeeeeeeeery quotable film, didn't really like it first 2 times I saw it but, like a lot of Will Ferrell stuff, the third viewing was the charm. Probably his third best film as well, after Anchorman and Talledega Knights.

 

[Daniel]

"It's the fuckin Catalina Wine Mixer"

A damn good scene xD

"I'll have any job you've got going for me, as long as it isn't sex with old ladies and bear traps"

I've laughed a lot at this film, which I wasn't really expecting to.

Die Hard 4.0 next

 

[Sadken]

Another quality film

 

[Daniel]

Ha yep, my Tuesday are awesome

I take the day off on holiday to do my driving course, leave at 8, get back 12:30 and just watch films from lovefilm, eat junk food and chillax

Sadly it'll come to an end within a month, so I gota make the most of it for the next 4 weeks.

 

[Daniel]

Watching the first scene, I feel I really should invest in surround sound for films like this

 

[Sadken]

I keep thinking about the Catalina Wine Mixer and laughing out loud to myself now....

Yeah, surround sound's the thing alright. I need it too.

 

[ViolentPanda]

I remember being scared witless by that as a kid. Great programme.

Even now, 32 years after it was broadcast on ITV at 4.30pm, it was still classified "PG", where most kid's progs from that era get a "U".
The horribly eerie atonal singing and music got right under my skin too!

We watched "The Mist" - adapted from the Stephen King novella - very good. Quite frightening and shocking at times and it does make the unbelievable seem believable. Also quite uncompromising in certain ways as well. I enjoyed it

I've read the story, I might bother with the film now someone with good taste has recommended it!

 

[ViolentPanda]

the original is rather good, but the new one doesn't look too good. There was also a James Herbert book called The Fog but it was a totally different story.

With Captain Hook as one of the incidental characters.

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

Changeling. Was decent, but I've preferred some of Eastwood's others.

Going to watch In bruges tonight i think

I thought In Bruges was a pretty good film.

Just packed up Die Hard and Step Brothers for the postie.

Die Hard was more awesome then I thought, John McClane amazes me... hmmm I think I may need to use a spoiler tag, be back when I find out how its done

Spoiler: Die Hard

The guy runs the fit asian chick over with a damn Jeep, now this bitch can take a damn SUV spearing her at god knows what speed but the robot mofo survives? Then Mr McClane comes along when shes in the elevator and BAM! one punch she's K.O'd. Thats right, McClane has more force in a punch then a speeding SUV

I loved the one liners, and the action scenes were brilliant, its nice to watch films when no one else is in the house, so I can cheer and scream at the action

 

[baldrick]

Hunger.

about the 1981 hunger strike in the maze.

very very good.

 

[The Octagon]

More Angel Season 4 - Ground State (Ep2)

Alexa Davalos = yum.
