The only redeemable feature about the movie is that it's the best role Nicolas Cage has ever played.

he says he's channeling Adam West but I think he just forgot his lines

It works for Christopher Walken.

Diary Of A Wimpy Kid was mostly a tedious after-school special with some ocassional "I would probably love this if I were ten" moments.
Oddly enough... it has a good soundtrack. There were at least three instances of "oh hey I recognize this song!"

Somehow, I never heard of They Live until last month, and its turn on my Netflix queue finally came so I was able to watch it last night. Great movie. It seems to be considered "so bad its good", but apart from the overly long fistfight scene (and the classic bubblegum line), it was very solid to me.

Put on the glasses.

Here are a few simple rules to determine whether or not a movie is awesome

1. John Carpenter?
2. Keith David?

If yes, best movie

This rule also works with

1. John Carpenter?
2. Kurt Russell?

Please tell me you mean both conditions must be met

Otherwise,

the presence of Kevin Costner fucks up the calibration

The Invisible Man (1933) is goddamned fantastic. It's a pretty good movie on its own, but the special effects are perfect. I don't know how they did all this. It's also a lot funnier than you would expect.

also "EVEN THE MOON IS AFRAID OF ME" is probably the most badass and over-the-top thing I've ever heard someone say in a film from the thirties.

Bought four things today.
PuniPuniPoemy-$10
Up on Blu-ray-$15
Iron Giant -$5
Heavyweights-$5

Best part about up? Comes with the DVD, the bonus features Blu-ray, and the digital copy.
Worst part? Not knowing what to watch first tonight.

EDIT: Oh! And PuniPuniPoemy has a nice patch on there too

Two of my five favorite movies! Good choices.

Especially cool (and surprising) considering that it's Disney.

The worst part about Up and every other Disney Blu-Ray release?

It comes with all this shit I don't want for an extra premium on the price. (Not eligible when you get it for $15 ofc)

SCD · « **Reply #516 on:** September 04, 2010, 06:05:12 PM »

So I watched Kick Ass. Yes, as Teg pointed out, there are flaws just like in most action movies (Expendables, anyone?)

It's a brainless action film, and has inspired me for design of IPSC stages from the hit girl and big daddy scenes. Pure escapism, and fun. But only if you take the stick out of your ass, and not just suspend your disbelief. You'll need to send it to mars for this one.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that's Disney's standard MO now.

Because it's the only way they can get people to buy Blu-Rays.

Death Proof: Got some redneck to watch it. Most of the movie is pure torture, but the moral and the ending were brilliant.

Planet Terror is about 10000000000000 times better.
