What DVD / Video did you watch last night? (pt3)

Ganja & Hess, a 70s black art film about a vampire, an interesting alternative to the usual blaxploitation films of the era.
 
Brooklyn Nine Nine - New US comedy cop show.

Obviously pogofish would say "why does TV need another cop show, it's been done already". This is a comedy though, and not bad too :)
 
Currently watching Dear God No. ms starfish recorded it from the horror channel & watched it the other day. She kept as she thought i might enjoy it :D Mad bikers go pillaging, take loads of drugs. Oh & theres lots of dancing girls.

eta I forgot to mention Bigfoot & Nazis too.

The first two were enough. To paraphrase Will Self, does it turn into Tolstoy in the third film?

Right. Dark Knight Returns is an animated film in two parts based on the Frank Miller/Lynn Varley graphic novel. Which you have obviously neither read nor seen, like I thought.

So in order to get the Nolan films you need to read Miller's Comic?

That rather backs up OU point that the storytelling is incoherent.

1) frank miller is a fascist tool

2)it's a comic book, not a 'graphic novel'

see, being a condescending arse is fun!
 
Trance. Inexplicable. The story is basically that in the course of an art heist, the painting goes astray, the member of the gang who hid it got a bump on the head and can't remember where it is. He undergoes hypnotherapy to recover his lost memory. Then it becomes a game between the boss of the gang, the inside man and the hypnotherapist. Very twisty-turny, stretching credulity to breaking point. Danny Boyle handles the tension and interplay with confidence, but the story needed to be executed better, particularly the relationship between the three central characters.
 
Just watched Manborg

Struggling to find the right collection of words...homage to ridiculous 80s b movies (which i used to rather enjoy) about a man who comes back as 'Manborg' after Nazi demons from hell take over the world.

Comedy nonsense, insanely overboard, loved it :D

That's not condescension, dear. That's just a trolly post looking for an argument.

If you have anything to say about the movie Batman The Dark Knight Returns...or any other dvd/video you may have recently watched...this is the thread for you.
