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

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Watched Beouwolf on the plane again. Still not sure if it is the greatest film ever made or a load of total shit. I hate CGI but kind of like the pumped up story. Its so stupid its brilliant.

Also watched I am legend (Should have been called I am shit)
and the golden compass (Low expectations could have led me to think this is better than it actually was but I quite enjoyed it)

 

[rutabowa]

we watched beowulf on the plane too, funny.

 

[Pieface]

Apparently Ray Winston loves watching it because he looks all CGI'd up and hot I fancy Ray Winstone.

I watched Hellboy and so now I fancy Ron Perlman too.

 

[rutabowa]

i like the way he fights naked but there's always some handy object in the way so you don't see everything, like a dismembered limb will pop up in the foreground

OK the I have decided I love it then.

When he cuts his arm off just to get a better reach. Nice.

I . AM . BEOWULF!!!

but I also likea the sexa.

All that male bravado was fantastic and as a film it trotted on very nicely.

 

[N_igma]

Family Guy Star Wars one, thought it was a load of shite.

 

[sojourner]

Toto the hero

enjoyed it

 

[El Jefe]

Toto the hero

enjoyed it

One of my 3 or 4 favourite movies of all time. Just heartbreaking..

 

[ViolentPanda]

Nightwatch.

 

[Swearing Nonna]

Watched Grizzly Man on sat night, entertaining and interesting, would recommend it

 

[jeff_leigh]

No Country for old men - Excellent Movie didn't feel like a Coen Bros movie to me though, parts of it felt like I was watching a Sam Peckenpah

 

[corporate whore]

The Maltese Falcon. I don't need to tell you it was good, do I?

 

[Badgers]

Been watching the Rings films over the last two night and last film to watch tonight.
Still love them more at every watch

 

[Yetman]

The Nines - the mrs thought it was shit but I thought it was really good. Probably one of those you have to watch twice though - I'm still a bit confused by it

 

[upinsmoke]

Jungle book ..i was babysitting.

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

Watched atonement at last.

Bit bizarre really - it's one of my favourite books, and I thought it was superbly done. But at times it felt a bit too well done if that makes sense. I had no quibbles with it as an adaptation, but it felt a bit too perfect, a little cold. Did anyone else experience the same thing?

 

[Part 2]

Films on the plane on holiday

The Kiterunner. I was tired and really emotional and blubbing a bit, a good film.

There Will be Blood.

The Savages. Probably want to see this again, interruptions spoilt it if anything, looked to be good performances.

Last night on Dvd

Baadaaas Cinema, about Blaxploitation films, interesting as I've not seen any.

Hearts and Minds, about Vietnam, lost me a bit at times but more down to not knowing the subject than the documentary itself, some excellent footage and interviews though.

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

Why is it that some people always seem to land great films on the plane, while I get lumbered with total crap?

 

[Reno]

I really wouldn't want to see There Will Be Blood on a plane, watching a cropped image on a small screen and listening to the amazing surround soundtrack on tinny earphones.

I always watch films on planes which I wouldn't watch otherwise. After three vodka tonics everything looks good to me.

Depends what planes you fly on I think. Virgin and Jal tend to be pretty good but ANA this year was a bit of a let down. I went on some german plane a couple of years ago that only played Xmen 2 on a tiny TV for 10 rows. 13 hour flight and one film. EEk.

 

[CharlieAddict]

3:10 to Yuma - so heroes can be cowards too huh? there's alot of depth in both the lead characters played by Bale and Crowe. a great film. recommend!

 

[corporate whore]

A History Of Violence

 

[Part 2]

My flights were Air France. There were about 8 or 9 to choose from and because we flew out the previous month the films were different, can't remember what they were for March except for Juno.

I'd already seen There Will Be Blood at the cinema, probably wouldn't have watched it otherwise.

 

[sojourner]

I discovered four episodes of the first season of The Wire on tvchoiceondemand the other night. Watched two, not expecting much as it was the beginning - already drawn in thanks you guys

 

[zenie]

Watched Batman Begins which was wicked, and Tickets which was mad but brilliant!

 

[Reno]

"Silk", a Tai supernatural thriller, kind of The Stone Tape meets Ju-on, but rather good.

 

[heinous seamus]

I watched stardust two nights ago and 8 mile last night - both class films

 

[extra dry]

'The bridge' about the golden gate....chilling...sad...in some small ways uplifting..rollercoaster of a documentary..not recommended if you feeling down.

 

[rekil]

Land Of The Dead and Webs, no budget nonsense about a parallel universe of spiderfreaks.
