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

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

The Power of Salad -

A documentary about lightning bolt a two man band with 3800w of power. As a fan it was an interesting look into their lives on the road, almost a little sad though.

The DVD also came with their fab cartoon videos.

I really like that film.
Guess I am a sucker for feel good fantasy films

Currently my copy is leant to my mum.
I gave her a straight choice of this or Alien and she opted for this

i do too.

i like nearly all Tim Burton's stuff.

 

[Badgers]

Me too

Curious to see what he does with Alice in Wonderland.
It has the potential to be a fantastic film but also hard to get right.
I think that Burton would have been my first choice as Director.

 

[Part 2]

The Killer

Loads of shooting, blood and ropey car chases, action all the way.

I enjoyed it.

 

[Ranbay]

No country for old men,, really good

Quality isn't it?
I watched it when I was a bit pissed and distracted so have to do it again.

 

[Orang Utan]

Sin City - enjoyable dodgy as fuck bollocks, though the Bruce Willis bit was shit. Frank Miller must be a therapist's dream - he's sure got some problems with women

 

[Mallard]

Pirates of the Carribean 'World's End'. Not sure what was going on for a lot of it not helped as I fell asleep for 10 mins halfway through.

 

[CharlieAddict]

vacancy - good build-up but explodes into a bloodied turd. ridiculous film.

 

[Yoj]

Psycho - the original by Hitchcock!

 

[Badgers]

Pirates of the Carribean 'World's End'. Not sure what was going on for a lot of it not helped as I fell asleep for 10 mins halfway through.

The weakest of the trilogy IMO but not totally dire.
Worth picking up from the bargain bin for some Sunday afternoon watching

 

[corporate whore]

The Stranger - solid Orson Welles/Edward G. Robinson two-hander

 

[Augie March]

1408 - Should've guessed that this was probably going to be more silly shit, than scary shit. Still, it was fairly watchable fluff.

 

[May Kasahara]

Mean Girls

I enjoyed it

 

[e∞a]

rockfish - pretty cool short animation (8 mins). i like the idea. worth a look. watch it here.

 

[CharlieAddict]

exiled -

watched this with someone.
and she said 'it's chinamen doing a spaghetti ennit?'

yep it sure was.

 

[Part 2]

Grow Your Own... great stuff, a comedy film with a message. A funny comedy film at that and nice to have something all the family can watch.

Eastern Promises. Really enjoyed this one too. Except the ropey Russian accents.

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

Stardust. I liked it: it's a fantasy movie that isn't based on some children's novel, and that isn't full of over the top CG.

 

[Orang Utan]

Except it is based on a kid's book

Darn.

1408 - Should've guessed that this was probably going to be more silly shit, than scary shit. Still, it was fairly watchable fluff.

See, I thought the first half was pretty scary. It did get unscary towards the end though.

 

[Orang Utan]

The House By The Cemetery - one of the better production line Italian horror films - a Fulci- almost ruined by the blonde lad being dubbed by an adult, making it comical at times - full of stock horror clichés but never boring - nice score too

 

[Reno]

Unconditional Love, a strange but likable comedy starring Kathy Bates, Rupert Everett and a dwarf in a red mac who is hung up about Don't Look Now. Was considered too odd to be released and went straight to DVD, but was better than many films that make it to cinemas.

 

[Augie March]

See, I thought the first half was pretty scary. It did get unscary towards the end though.

Aye. Does have it's better, scarier moments earlier on before it decsends into silliness.Still good though, Cusack carries the film on his own really well.

 

[CharlieAddict]

no country for old men - loved it so much, my next haircut is gonna be like anton's. very inspirational film.

 

[Orang Utan]

That photo looks like it might be a spoiler

 

[marty21]

watched series 3 of the wire over the last few nights - up to the usual excellent standards

 

[May Kasahara]

Hamsterdam

 

[sheothebudworths]

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas - although I wasn't really watching it in the end - wasn't really in the mood, so it was just on.
