Went to see 'Man of the Year' on Tuesday. Thought it was a good movie.

 

I bought my default stuff since it still wasnt cold enough to wear the larger coat to let me bring my own candy.

 

Bottle of Coke

Box of Reece's Pieces

Pack of Twizlers

Man of the Year was not what I expected. The first half is what I thought it would be...comedian runs for President. Then the last half turns into his crazy drama with a corrupt corporation trying to kill one of it's employees. Nutso.

...So on a scale of one to ten, ten being the highest, how good was it?

The Bob-o-meter rates it a...7.

 

Thank you for using the Bob-o-meter movie rating system. And be sure to vote for Rob in the 2006 NY Senate race.

I just came back from seeing The Queen. I rate it 9. Very very good film.

Alright, here's a pollish thingy: What's everyone's favourite movie(s)?

 

My personal favourites: "The Cube," "Nothing," "Monty Python's Quest for the Holy Grail," "History of the World Part I." (The Mel Brooks film)

Don't forget Space Balls!!!

Aside from the Original Star Wars Trilogy, the Indiana Jones movies were good. The Game gets a score of 11 on a scale of 1-10, 10 being the best. The Final Destination trilogy is very good, IMO. Then there's always the Bond movies, most Morgan Freeman movies, w/ the exception of Sum of all Fears (none of the movies based off of Clancy's books are worth watching if you've read the book), the vast majority of Connery's films, and the Matrix trilogy. Need I continue?

I just saw The Prestige over the weekend. This is one movie that HAS to be seen in theatre. VERY VERY GOOD FILM!!!!!!!

The first Matrix was good then they just got worse as they were released.

Agreed. I must have seen the first one like a million times, the second one maybe 2-4, and the third one...just once.

For the third i got the impression it was the Clone Wars ending with a different setting and stretched over two hours.

There's no way i can name just one or a few of my favorites.. and i would go down the list by genre.. but.. i havent the time.. so... some of my "must see" movies include: Leon a.k.a. The Professional in the U.S. and now Leon the Professional (as of the special edition released DVD), American Psycho, Equilibrium, Boondock Saints and Groundhog Day.

I saw a film call Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. It was BLOODY BRILLIANT!!!! An absolute MUST see! Its a 2004 film so your local video club.

Yeah. I loved the way that one was filmed. That's one of the movies on my "must buy" list.

It was just about entirely made in CGI. The actors only filmed for 28 days.

I thought it was an ok film... pretty neat new way of filming.. but yea.. i enjoyed it... i just saw the new "The Omen" that was good. creepy.. but good.. hehe

I didn't want to see the new one since I like the old trilogy so much. But I suppose now that it's on DVD I will check it out eventually.

If you haven't yet, watch Shaun of the Dead. It's a hilarious British zombie movie. A must see for everyone

I thought that movie was hilarious... not as much a comedy as i thought it would be though.. but it was still funny.

I hate going to the theatre when theres a bunch of old ladies in there. I'm like "hey lady, why are you watching horror movies?"

nah dude... whats worse is when you are at a midnight showing of The grudge 2 and a couple walks in with... A BABY IN THEIR HANDS!!!! not even in a stroller.. or anything.. in their hands...

 

Babies in movies period pisses me off... if you cant find a sitter.. then you dont go to the movies... god..

Shaun of the Dead is fantastic.

 

I am looking forward to seeing the new Jimmy Bond movie, Casino Royale. Something about this new Bond that I prefer over the others. Perhaps it's because he reminds me of Kevin McKidd, the fellow who played Lucius Vorenus in HBO/BBC's ROME.

 

Did anyone see Miami Vice over the summer? I wanted to, but never got the chance.

 

And how about that new Brad Pitt movie? Seems Syriana-like.
