coda Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Due to snow boredom I watched Seeking a Friend for the End of the World. Not even Keira's kooky English bird could save this one. Predictable and not particularly funny. Also watched Dead Man Walking which was a brilliant, powerful two hours. Can't believe I've missed this since 1995. Tim Robbins should direct more often. It took me a while to realise the chaplain is Hershel from The Walking Dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Due to boredom on Saturday saw kung fu panda for the first time, have to say some kids films can make decent viewing for adults with some additional humour in, didnt feel this was one of them... Easy viewing of course, but didn't really think it was humorous. Edited March 25, 2013 by mikeyp102 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Designer1 Posted March 25, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted March 25, 2013 Watched Amour last night. It's easily one of the most moving films i've ever seen as is up there with Haneke's finest work. Emmanuelle Riva should have got the Oscar in my opinion, mind you I thought Quvenzhane Wallis deserved it more than Jennifer Lawrence too, and i'm a big fan of hers (Lawrence).

maqroll Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Watched The Hobbit the other night. It was like stepping into some warm and comfortable slippers. Nothing really amazing about it, but entertaining, beautiful to look at, and just nice to experience Middle Earth again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunRickyRun Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Bobby Fischer Against the World is a good watch. Most of the film is spent building up to the Spassky match, and it has a similar feel to When We Were Kings except they are talking about chess not boxing (not chessboxing either but I digress).

AVFCDAN Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Watched The Hobbit the other night. It was like stepping into some warm and comfortable slippers. Nothing really amazing about it, but entertaining, beautiful to look at, and just nice to experience Middle Earth again. Couldn't agree more, which is why I didn't mind the running time in the end.

jacketspuds Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Took my little boy to the cinema today to watch The Croods. Not bad to be honest. Seemed like it didn't go on for too long and it was fun in places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 new world war z trailer out, less of the really dodgy looking CGI (still plenty of it but not as much as the 1st) IMO something still doesnt seem right about it, might be that other than pitt the cast doesnt seem anything special, i cant grasp from the trailers what its going to be, its not horror / thriller, hope its not a drama but at the same time the action doesnt look good enough, think it'll just end up as a "summer blockbuster" where it doesnt really do anything bar a couple of flashy set pieces to appeal to the masses i'll see it because i like pitt but its not exciting me at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 1st wolverine trailer out on wednesday jean grey is in it, havent said if its a flashback, its set in japan, silver samurai is the villain surely cant be worst than the last 1? also saw that for the follow up to xmen 1st class - they have cast half of X3 and are doing some sort of half and half film with both casts dinklage and omar sy have been cast in unknown roles which sounds good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Omar Sy will surely be Bishop I would've thought. Though it wouldn't shock me if they cast him as someone who's historically white in the comics. Edited March 26, 2013 by kurtsimonw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Excellent film. Tells the story of Kurdish refugees (mainly orphans) in the lead up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I watched Looped last night. That little kid is really really cool. It would've been better if it was just him going mental with his powers for the whole film. I guess that would just be a live action Akira with a 4/5 year old kid though, so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaForever1970 Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Chronicle is a live action Akira. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Tetsuo did it best. It even had the totally mental bit at the end where the antagonist become some sort of massive non-human ball of stuff that went around wrecking shit. Well kind of. As I recall (been awhile since I saw Tetsuo), rather than him being killed, he and the protagonist melded into one, to become this big tank thing, that goes driving down the street and off in to the sunset, a bit like how Fagin & Dodger do at the end of Oliver.

Pelle Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I watched Dracula with Bela Lugosi today. Well, it wasn't very good, I think. Probably good when it came, but 80+ years later I think it's quite out of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
