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

[cliche guevara]

Have been watching Freaks and Geeks for the last week or so

 

[thriller]

Watched The House of the Devil last night.

Very well made film. They got the 1980s feel perfectly. Very slow film but has some creepy moments-especially when the girl is in the house looking around.

 

[Nanker Phelge]

Son and I watched a young Indiana Jones episode today.

They're quite clever, if a little under-budgetted, and poorly edited.

The DVDs come with loads of educational extras and old documentaries.

In the episode today Indy meets Pancho Villa.

In the next one we're gonna watch he meets Sean O'Casey. which is cool because Nanker Jnr gets to know about some quite interesting characters from the past, but also get some geography lessons too as they are set all over the world.

If you have kids they're a good watch.

 

[Orang Utan]

the south park episode with the jonas brothers and mickey mouse in it

Oh, me too.

He's heard them already.

Peter Cook is most revered in this house.

 

[Voley]

Just watched The Day Of The Jackal with Edward Fox, a film I loved when I was a kid. Still enjoyed it but the stiff-upper-lip accents of a bunch of blokes who are supposed to be French terrorists were pretty dire.

 

[imposs1904]

D A Pennebaker's documentary, Town Bloody Hall.

Germaine Greer versus Norman Mailer. Brilliant stuff.

 

[Badgers]

Some more spooks
Then the latest QI (Ze Germans)

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

Big Trouble in Little China. An early John Carpenter movie. A bit dated. I don't think you could portray chinese people like that anymore.

 

[andy2002]

District 9 - as others have said, it turns into a traditional Hollywood action movie towards the end, but the first hour is very good indeed. I certainly enjoyed it more than I did last year's other critically-lauded sci-fi movie, Moon.

 

[Sadken]

Have been watching Freaks and Geeks for the last week or so

GREAT show! I really, really enjoyed it. What the hell do you have to do to get a second series? Mega talented cast, sharp writing...it's all there. Big time fancy the main character too.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Deja Vu - with Denzel Washington. A good premise that got a bit lost along the way.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

I watched ep one of breaking bad on the train. It's alright.

 

[rutabowa]

i can't remember what i watched last night i think i blacked out.

i can't remember what i watched last night i think i blacked out.

I managed to go home and not buy a bottle of wine. Impressive stuff. Woke up at 5am in a weird panic about anything and everything currently featuring in my life. I then felt I needed to look for those guitar strings (which couldn't possibly be in my house anyway) and discovered that I had lost my POD. Then found the POD and didn't care so much about the strings in comparison.

Someone should make a film of it then it might be more relevant to this thread.

 

[rutabowa]

wait i just remembered i watched the snooker final, panic over. oh no now i'm worrying that i left the joe meek box somewhere. anway.

 

[butchersapron]

Giordano Bruno - Montaldo's film about guess who. Not his best, weak first hour, and probably the least effective performance i've ever seen from Volonte - apart from the last 20 or so minutes.

 

[sojourner]

Inglourious Basterds

my dad lent it to me

I nearly switched it off several times

that's about as positive a review as I can give it

 

[The Octagon]

Couple of episodes of Burn Notice.

Never seen it before, quite enjoyed it.

 

[soluble duck]

I watched quite a few films yesterday.

Started with 'A Serious Man', which I really liked. Very funny, particularly the junior Rabbi talking about the parking lot.

Then I watched 'Paranormal Activity' because there was some hype about it, which was completely unwarranted because it failed to even make me jump. Pretty crap film imo, just rips off the idea behind Blair Witch Project but failed to scare me, whereas Blair Witch did when I saw it for the first time.

I also watched 'Resident Evil: Apocalypse' which was pretty crappy but quite fun and nice to see some lovely ladies (randy old colonel voice) killing zombies.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Watched this yesterday while I was pottering about. Wonderfully stiff upper lip, old chap, but also rather moving.

^^^cemented my belief that Tar antino hasn't made a good film since Jackie Brown did that.

Is that the one where he pretends to be gay?

Oh, shooting, guns, people dying, blood etc

[pboi]

he did manage to create great suspense with some scenes, I will give him that.
