Hey, I remember that movie! A staple of the 2pm afternoon movies-on-TV set.

Also: isn't that already a kinda-sorta remake of a several near-similar books where through the magic of a MYSTERIOUS TIME HOLE a modern day aircraft carrier, crusier, or similar goes back and interferes with WWII? (Optional British version: a WWII Battleship goes back in time and interferes with the Napoleonic wars).

I bet our military will never allow for anything like this ever again.

Yeah, now they just make us blow them up.

I can kiss ass with the best of them.  I have a direct line to the Pentagon.  I can get any airplane, never shot before in any movie, I can always shoot it first.  I shot the space shuttle when it was getting ready to launch.  They stopped prepping it for two minutes so I could shoot it.

:gasp: He's going to blow up the shuttle!

Can I just get a movie that is nothing but a string of Michael Bay explosions?  Yes I am aware that is a Robot Chicken skit, I still want that.  Plot optional.

You could probably take a compilation of his past movies, string just the explosion bits together, and get a feature-length picture out of it.

Doesn't count.  The first half of that movie suffers from such an overwhelming amount of plot that I began to :barf:

If you can find it, Ian McKellen in Richard III (1995) is a grand adaptation. It has tanks and quasi-Nazis! :perfect:

NETFLIX ADVENTURES!

Equilbrium: Geothermal was right.  The only time there is something wrong with this movie is when people are talking.  Last fight is quite epic.  Curious why I've never even HEARD of this movie.

I think it came out the same summer as The Matrix did and Bale wasn't as big a name as he is now with American Psycho being his only big American movie credit. Admitedly, The Matrix is a much better movie over all and so it basically got its thunder stolen as being the other kungfu in the future movie that didn't advertise as much and called its fighting the decidedly lame name of GUN-KATA.

*shrug*

It's an alright flick if you haven't seen it before. It's at least as good as say, V for Vendetta though it's strengths lie in different areas. One of my favourite things to nitpick about it is the simple fact that no one is suposed to be allowed to show emotion in it and one of the main plot points is this whole thing where everyone is watching Bale all the time and he has to look like he has no emotion even though his is actually really pissed off and scared, and etc. Well the whole movie, everyone who isn't Bale fucking shows emotion all over the place! The big bad shows anger readily and his henchman is fucking laughing it up and smiling all the time, so who the fuck are they to claim Bale is a feeler? They really fucked it up, basically. Good fights though.

Wasn't there a bit in the movie about how people who made good emotion police were people who had some emotional connection despite the drugs, because most people didn't recognize emotion while on the drugs? Am I just imagining that? Assuming I'm not imagining that scene it explains why the second is laughing it up the whole movie. And the big bad isn't on drugs so that's obvious.

I kinda wish there was a screen saver of the first scene of him standing in the dark, twirling his guns around shooting dudes.

That was such bad CGI, though.  That scene looks terrible.  'He" moves so stiffly.

Martyrs is an .... interesting horror flick from France.  It's really actually kinda hard to describe, and not entirely satisfying by the end of it, but it's probably worth a watch if you've got any kind of interest in, well, anything Lionsgate has ever released I guess.  When I thought the movie was winding down towards the end credits, I realized I'd actually only been watching it for like forty minutes.

After having watched Orgazmo, I find it funny that the film has an NC-17 rating despite no female nudity.  It's a funny, chuckle-worthy film.

More Netflix stuff.  Hey, I have two codes here that gets you a month free of Netflix instead of the usual two weeks.  First two PMs to me that ask for them will get them.  One per person!

Bourne Ultimatum:
I'd like to believe our intelligence agencies are capable of manhunts like this.  Some pretty decent action sequences here, though most of it is 'who is going to get shot in the face/head' scenes.  One good fist fight between two ULTIMATE AGENTS and a fun chase scene with a dirtbike.  Four outta five.

Next on the agenda is Snatch, because I need more Guy Richie/Jason Statham films.
