Well, nobody gets taken, they're on a plane :lol: It's the typical plane hijacking but then things get worse action movie. I saw the trailer I assume there'll be a bit of suspense and mystery about what happens after the hijacking so it can fit that thriller genre as well.

Or, since its a hijacking, can you say that everyone on the plane gets taken? Just throwing it out there.

I'm assuming the hijacker gets done with as they move on to w/e other plot point. You could say that though.
 
it's sad that you two dudes just broke down that entire film's premise :lol:

so over all these nearly identical films and performances. machine's gotta make money though.
 
Given the sheer amount of movies I've watched in the past few months both old and recently new (and pretty much the whole past year) it's become far easier to see through movies, trailers, and even a damn synopsis to get the gist of it. More so for the movies that aren't going to be that good or are pretty straightforward in genre.

@venom lyrix, C CP1708 , and other vets of this thread I don't know how yall do it for certain movies especially when they're promoted as something "new"


Anyway, I saw As Cool As I Am some time last week on demand and Claire Danes definitely makes the same crying face when her character needs to cry on camera :lol: :smh: :x Movie was a bit more sexual than I thought. The mom's a **** and lost in life, had a child to young (Claire Danes). Dad is super absent and when he's around tries too hard to be a father and strict (Marsden). The daughter (something Bolger) really has her head on her shoulders, is almost too responsible for a 16 yr old and as she goes through her sexual awakening a lot of stuff seems rushed. The montages got corny after a while. The ending was weird. She gets left I guess to cook at some diner working for some old dude, living on her own basically, as her mom leaves to Mexico or some place with like the 3rd random guy she meets up with, and the dad seemingly dips for good.

Movies like this do make me wonder do white ppl really have that easy growing up as teenagers. This was along the lines of The Art of Getting By, Tanner Hall, The Perks of Being A Wallflower, etc. just not as depressing or dour.
 
Wife & I just watched God Loves Uganda... Great doc... :smh: Religious zealots losing foothold in the first world so they try & spread their fanaticism in the third world by teaching hate & violence...
 
RIP Maximilian Schell... You scared the ish outta me when I was younger at the end of the movie The Black Hole... My little brother & I were freaked out about the ending... I loved the Maximillian action figure though...

I love this lady more & more... Dame Hellen Mirren twerks as she accepts Havard's Hasty Pudding...

Lot of stuff I just try to be entertained and not worry about every detail.

I LOVED Schindler's List. Tremendous film. Saw it once, will never, ever, ever watch it again.
Have watched Battleship 25+ times.

Liam was in both. :lol:


I have to be.....prepped for Schindler, or Dallas Buyers, or.....Prisoners. Movies that you emotionally invest in. Those take something outta you.

Flip on Battleship, or Casino, Savages, Casino Royale and just let those play in the background while I do other things. Tune in and out mentally. Rounders, Con Air. Just easy viewings.

Lone Survivor, no way. I'd have to sit still, no noise, just me and the film.

View them that way, I can sit thru any film, good and bad, and be "ok" with the film.

*Typing this as Iron Man 3 plays for the 4th time this week*
 
HUGE SPOILER AHEAD!












Liam Neeson Says Nobody Gets Taken In Taken 3









Liam Neeson is guesting with Jonathan Ross here in the UK tonight, promoting Non-Stop. Ross took the opportunity to ask a little about Taken 3 and Neeson promised a “really, really good story.”

Most interestingly, though, was his reveal that:

They called me up and I said “I’ll do it… but only as long as nobody gets Taken.”

And he wasn’t joking. It actually seems there’s really a new twist on the old routine in store. Ross pushed for more details but Neeson kept them under wraps.

He’s good like that. He didn’t even want Ross to reveal that his role in Non-Stop is that of an air marshall even though it’s all over the trailers and TV spots.

Non-Stop opens across the UK on February 28th. Taken 3 goes into production this year. I hope the Taken faithful don’t think the Taken 3 title is just being taken in vain.

No way in hell could The Hateful 8 script be worse than Death Proof...


That film was all the way in the dumptruck garbage
 
Death Proof was outstanding.

Dude introduced 4 female leads, went an hour deep, dropped em, then got 4 new ones and carried the story seamlessly.

100,000 movies on this planet can't make a single female lead that isn't there to take her top off or fight over a man, he put in 8 in the same film, just cuz.

Sorry, that ain't garbage, not even close.
 
It is always cool to compare a big director's best to worst especially in such an early stage of the process with opinions already sparking

I respect and accept your opinions, but Death Proof is a steaming pile of monkey poo.
 
death proof was ok imo. nothing special. its my least favorite tarantino movie.
 
Can someone tell me why I just wasted 2 hours of my life watching Tyler Perry's "Why Did I Get Married?" :smh:

The over acting :x
The extremely unrealistic situations... The husbands really just gonna let her wife get kicked off a plane and make her drive through a blizzard?

"What do I have to do to make this work?"
"Lose 50 pounds and maybe you'll be attractive to me." :wow:

The constant low blows :rofl:

I guess it was one of theses movies that are so stupid it became entertaining to keep watching for the lulz :lol:

Contemplating watching the sequel just to see how much more ridiculous it could get :lol: :smh:

Looks like its true. Some reputable news outlets are reporting it, like the Wall Street Journal. Wow. What a shame. RIP.

The Machinist :wow: all Bale ate was like apple cores. What he's willing to go through for a role is what separates him from the world. Leo is too human in that case.

this really grinds my gears.. losing weight staying in character etc is cool but it doesnt make u better than other actors who do it. Shia Lebouf is having real sex..doing acid..not showering and stinks so much so that they had to seperate him from Brad Pitt.. doesnt make him a great actor.
