What DVD / Video did you watch last night ?

[Jim2k5]

i liked a history of violence, wanst a amazing movie but was a entertaining 2 hours, you may have to enjoy graphic violence though

 

[mhendo]

The Proposition, with Guy Pearce, Ray Winstone, and Emily Watson. Written by Nick Cave.

Great film.

 

[Orang Utan]

Watched Lilja 4 ever. The most depressing thing I've seen since Requiem for a Dream.

It's an amazing film though isn't it?

 

[Dubversion]

Do The Right Thing (cos Pie Face hasn't seen it before).

still an impressive movie - a bit muddled, surprisingly stagey (it would work really well as a play) and a couple of really shit, unecessary scenes at the end, but on the whole a great bit of work.

 

[Grandma Death]

I had a barinless movie night with Final Destination 3 and Transporter 2.

Jason Stretham is atrocious and I can gladly report transporter 2 is as bad as Transporter.

Yes, it was very good, just incredibly miserable!

See, I thought Transport 1, although shit, was quite enjoyable shit, whereas 2 was just shit.

 

[elevendayempire]

That new version of Pride & Prejudice with Keira Knightley. It was quite good. And Donald Sutherland still has a lovely smile.

SG

 

[foamy]

Derailed. Quite good but wasn't expecting it to be so graphically violent...
*Note to self: must read up on films before i watch them *

 

[King Mob]

An Audience With Kevin Smith.. occasionally very funny, but fuck me the audience were idiots, and Smith is a bit of a fratboy

The audience are morons with the exception of the girl talking about Chasing Amy. Smith's a great raconteur (his stories about working with Prince and his Superman story is utter brilliance) but he's not as smart as he clearly thinks he is.

Anyhow, i watched Threads last night for the first time since it was originally shown. It still scared me to fucking death.

You misunderstand me-I'd have never got T2 out if I hadnt enjoyed T1. T1 is so bad its good. T2 on the other hand is so shite its....erm....REALLY shite.

 

[King Mob]

no, and she stood her ground really well..

She does and to be fair to Smith he realises he isn't talking to an idiot and actually engages her is a decent conversation, even though there's whooping fucktards in the background.

 

[Orang Utan]

Sympathy For Mr Vengeance - very impressive indeed though there were certain plot points which confused me.

this is going to sound really appalling but

a) is that really how dumb american college students are?
b) wouldn't it have made a better movie if it had been made over here

 

[Jim2k5]

last night i watched Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. it was fucking hillarious, the state i was in may have helped though, and tonight im getting ready to watch Waist Deep. ill let you all know how it is

Fair dos... I agree

Also, Qi Shu is a babe

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

Last night I tried watching Magnolia. Didn't get into it. Will try again tonight...

 

[spacemonkey]

Series 4 of Red Dwarf. So so good.

 

[Wide Eyed Angel]

Orgazmo, suitably lame but knew it was

Episode's 12 & 13 of Six Feet Under series two. Brilliant, and it's been so long since I'd seen any!

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Sympathy For Mr Vengeance - very impressive indeed though there were certain plot points which confused me.

Like what?

Great film BTW.

 

[Orang Utan]

He sold his kidney and then was told there was loads of money in his account to pay for the transplant for his sister, so why did he need to kidnap his boss's daughter?

He sold his kidney and used all his money to pay for the black market organ for his sister.
They ran away with both his kidney and all his money. That's why its so sad when he gets the call from the hospital, the doctor thinks he has still got enough money to pay for the ligit transplant.

But he doesn't.

 

[Orang Utan]

Ah, I see - I was pissed

 

[Juice Terry]

A Better Tomorrow - dull as ditchwater
Tsotsi - much better

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

Series 4 of Red Dwarf. So so good.

Agreed... Series 5 is better though!

 

[jodal]

Crash (2005) still a great film

 

[ChrisFilter]

Crash (2005) still a great film

I downloaded that, haven't watched it yet cos everyone on here said it was shit, might watch it now.

 

[jodal]

Its extremely cheesy and very methodical in making you feel for the characters but all in all I think its a great film by very good writer/director.

The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things

Okay, not brilliant, too short (hate 90 minute films, it's over before it's begun), the youngest Jeremiah was a great kid actor. I found it clumsy, both the acting and the scenes. Maybe it's meant to be like that - a representation of the adult mind remembering childhood scenes. Also kept being distracted thinking how much Asia Argento looks like a young Courtney Love! Although the abuse scenes were disturbing (even though they are indirect), the fact that you know the story has been debunked sits in your head through the film.
