Oh I'm sorry, Did I Break Your Conversation........Well Allow Me A Movie Thread by S&T

It's actually great.

co sign its like watching an 80's r rated action movie. the main villian looks like pau gasol though

forrest whitaker was not needed in this movie though lol

 

[noblekane]

Interesting. Thing is none of del Toro's work has really appealed to me, but Steven Thompson being a part of it is exciting.

Some of those Empire Strike Back pictures. Some real classics in there, can't believe most of them have been hidden for so long.

Anyone seen Pain & Gain? I know it has a low 40% type score on Rotten Tomatoes, but maybe someone has a differing opinion, sort of how we're hearing some buzz about Jack Reacher.

wow you didnt like Pan's Labrynth?

or hellboy and hellboy 2?

im going to see pain and gain tomorrow. i heard bad things about the movie but im hoping for the best. i already read the real true story that its based on and i know they changed things around for the movie so im not like the people who want to bash it before they see it. i enjoyed 30 minutes or less and i read the real true story before i went to see that.

thing that scares me about pain and gain is its 2 hours and 9 minutes. might be a bit too much time

Alice Eve is British.

Alice Eve is British.

I think cuz she was an Australian actress in that one thing, I just assumed she was Australian this whole time. whoops lol

 

[mitchellicious]

Whoever recommended Nathan For You, thank you so much. This joint is hilarious.

I tried telling people. And it's hard to explain how it's more than just him trolling randoms.

Every episode is classic. Check the thread.

 

[mitchellicious]

For real. I just got done watching the rebate episode. The old dude talking about drinking piss almost gave me a heart attack. I had to turn it off cos I was in tears

 

[mronegative]

I don't think I've watched a whole episode fresh without having to stop it to breathe.

The rebate one was my favorite...when I realized this was it and he wasn't gonna stop. pfffffffffff

Movie 43 is out, should I even bother?

Aight...I just got through it. What's the point in even saying it's absolutely terrible? The whole setup made sure from the beginning that this movie wouldn't work. It's basically just kids finding random videos online.

I will say this much...a lot of the movie I wanted to like. The Naomi Watts/Liev/Lip from Shameless homeschooling was almost something. The Chloe Moretz/McLovin/The Tick period clip too. Same with the Halle Berry/Stephen Merchant truth or dare. Almost. |I And I was really they'd make something outta Emma Stone and Home Alone's brother. And Kristen Bell as Supergirl is awesome no matter what the context. And that 60s black bball thing was worth it just for how random it was seeing Jared Dudley, Larry Sanders and Corey Brewer in this POS movie.

It's like The Ten all over again. That was crappy segment movie, with a couple not bad parts like halfman Adam Brody.

And this...which had me dying the first time I saw it, and was the reason I kept watching 43, hoping for something:





But here's the thing. The Ten was by David Wain, who's comedy. And he filled it with his improv friends. It felt like practice for them later making Childrens Hospital. This didn't have improv people. Some of these ideas maybe could've worked, but they went for big name actors who aren't that funny and can't sell corny jokes. It felt like a compilation of every bad SNL host skit, extended cuts, no laugh track. Like I know Kate Winslet and Hugh Jackman were heated when this came out.

But after the movie is over, there's one more skit...Elizabeth Banks and Josh Duhamel in this weird Garfield meets Ren & Stimpy...thing. I don't know what the **** this is...but :x . Maybe it's just cuz I like Banks, but if the whole movie was on that level, it'd be something.

If I considered this a movie, it'd be the worst one of the year, easy. But it's not. It's just SNL outtakes to me. And it's sad that the skits I mentioned were better in the trailer than in the movie. It's just weird seeing all these actors and actresses you like, and knowing you're about to be disappointed again and again.

This thread title bothers me. It never made sense.

That's all.

 

[duba169]

Jack reacher is classy? I isn't see it off the title alone.

 

[mronegative]

Jack reacher is classy?

Mmhmm.

srsly, it's a like an action noir broke out in the world of The Good Wife.
It's to the point where I thought, the director's too good for this movie.

I isn't see it off the title alone.

Yeah.... :x Give it one shot.

 

[Meangene45]

I enjoyed Pain and Gain. The Rock killed it. Movie was funny just by how dumb them bodybuilders were.

 

[d0nny donowitz]

pain & gain seems like one of those movies that critics aren't crazy about but audiences love ... can't wait to see it

 

[servechilled81]

welp, MrONeg and those 2 pics have sold me on Jack Reacher, I don't even know what it's about but i'm dl'ing now.

trying to get into some action flicks anyway

I tried watching Skyfall, but I just squirmed like a 5th grader watching a documentary on about the budget crisis for 2 hrs..

 

[noblekane]

I enjoyed Pain and Gain. The Rock killed it. Movie was funny just by how dumb them bodybuilders were.

yea i saw it too. the rock parts were definitely the funniest Rock being a crack head jesus freak was worth the 5 bucks alon.e i liked the movie for what it was. dumb fun. it was a bit too long though. the last 20 minutes were just unnecessary though.

marky mark and rock were funny but so was mackie i think first time i ever seen him in a comedy.

if you watch the movie keep an eye on the shirts the rock wears

 

[noblekane]

Mmhmm.

i wanted no parts of jack reacher because tom cruise is not that guy to play a bad ***. last time i believed he was a bad *** was when i was a kid and watched top gun. my dude is as tall as an oompa loompa

however i was reading while the tv was on and a jack reacher tv spot came on and dude said something hella funny but bad *** to some dude made me spit out my drink. made me want to check that movie out. arent they going to try and make more jack reacher movies?

 

[mronegative]

arent they going to try and make more jack reacher movies?

Maybe. I think it made a lot less than they thought it would and mostly people ignored it.


Any of you guys watch Veep? Elaine from Seinfeld comedy on HBO about her being Vice President. 2nd season and the show got funnier. I love Buster from AD. And that little girl from My Girl grown now.

Maybe it's more my style, but I'd take this over Parks and Rec. I like that sarcastic, gutpunch style. Maybe the only knock is...the show got kinda...meaner. Like everyone's throwing daggers and shaking off body blows. They're all ruthless now, but still pretty damn funny.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Veep was hilarious last season. Need to check out the new ones.

 

[Kimchi Papi]

Jack Reacher was a solid movie, would've been better if someone else was cast instead of Tom Cruise (like Matt Damon)... I have a feeling Oblivion is the same way. The Jim Grant books (under the name Lee Childs) are supposed to be good. I read the first one KIlling Floor a long time ago & it was a good read.

 

[Meangene45]

Watched Gangster Squad last night it was just ok, should of been way better with that cast. But what the hell was up with Gosling's voice?
