"The Killer Inside Me"? Recent film with the guy who plays the coward Robert Ford in that recent Brad Pitt movie. I thought that TKIM was a very well made and well acted film, and the lead character plays another scumbag who everyone is supposed to hate. And it has 2 A list hotties in it, who get their boobs out! :D But MY GOD this film is horrid. Really gritty and horrible. Some of th most harrowing death scenes I have ever seen. More disturbing than any of the SAW movies, but that is because it is excruciatingly realistic and un-glamorous. Watch it if you are feeling like a tough guy.

Loved this movie, cried all the way through. If you haven't seen it I recommend it. Amazing story!
 The Town

proof that Gone Baby Gone was no fluke from Ben Affleck.
This isnt as good, its more of a genre crime drama, but what's here is skilfully executed, including the best car chase since Ronin.
7-7.5/10
 Back To The Future

Watched the trilogy recently, def. up there with the Indiana Jones trilogy. Crystal Skull does not exist.
Anyhoo, total awesome 80s vibe, great action scenes, super fun flick overall.
#3516 posted by necros on 2010/10/24 03:35:47
back to the future is one of those films (set of films...) that are still nearly as funny as when they originally came out.
still one of my favourites.

Unfortunately I last saw them when I was a wee lad, and I didn't quite remember the whole "mom coming onto son" angle from the first film. Feel kinda bad that I thought it was a bit hot. =/

but will rectify that when I get the upcoming blu ray release.
And hey, I liked Indy 4 :) Way better than Indy 2.
 No Way

i'm glad i'm not the only one who thinks that. i wouldn't put any of them in my all time favourites but they're good fun classic adventure movies and 4 was no different; it just went a bit x-files at the end, which didn't sit well with most (i thought it was incorporated pretty well)
this weekend i have seen:
the book of eli - this was interesting, i liked the exploration of different attitudes to religion. pretty slow but with some decent action scenes; the twist was maybe a bit far-fetched but ultimately kind of touching
toy story 3 - this is just awesome, best of the 3. if it doesn't make you a little bit emotional then you have no soul
 Hahah

Have you seen the South Park with Lucas and Spielberg raping Indiana Jones?
It was a shite film. Sorry.

a story hole in back to the future 2, when oldBiff goes back in time to give the almanac to youngBiff- he makes it back to his regular time(2015)no problem. Yet when the Doc and Marty go back to 1985 they go to the alternate 1985 where Biff is like the lord of the earth. so my question is how did oldBiff get to his normal 2015 and not an alternate one?
I've got a few ideas maybe but when I think of them more they don't really make sense and I dont want this to be a full page essay-post.
fuk I should have just recognized these movies as awesome and left it at that but noooo, I had to give it thought...
#3524 posted by Zwiffle on 2010/10/24 15:35:31
Yeah it felt Indiana Jonesy, and I will admit I didn't mind the alien being(s) as weird, at least it's a bit more believable than the Ark of the Covenant, three Indian god stones, or that cup or whatever.
The problem for me was that it jumped the shark a bit much in the action department and I didn't see the need to add Shia Labeouf, who I'm not a fan of but he didn't do a terrible job in the movie.
Yeah the fridge part was stupid, and so was swinging from the trees, which apparently Lucas and co realize was stupid and Indy 5 should be a ton better. So here's hoping Indy 5 completes the quadrilogy!

I know I was thinking the same thing while watching it. There's actually a ton of plot holes and stuff, but that's okay. I tried not to think too much about it, but I ended up coming up with an interwoven timeline theory where certain timelines only exist with the help of time travelers creating paradoxes in the past, but can still loop back into its 'twin' timeline to create the 'real' future. I have no idea how that actually works, but its my best guess.

Had a pre-halloween treat of rewatching The Thing after many years. Very dated but still very good. Forgotten that it had a decent vibe as well as quality gore. Great ending too.

yeah, pretty much. oldbiff should have returned to the alternate future so he'd be rich (which was the whole point of him going after all... he must have been pissed when he got out of the car and noticed nothing had changed. -_-)
unless we're meant to understand that the future DID change around doc/marty but that the changes didn't affect the area they were in, which doesn't really make sense since marty's parents are completely changed in the alternate timeline.
otoh, doc/marty are kind of already out of the house by the time oldbiff lands... soooo maybe we're supposed to believe they *just* missed his old parents poofing.
yeah... -_- these are movies you gotta just accept because they break down when you analyze them too heavily.
it's like avatar->floating islands with water pouring out of them. :PPP
 What About The Terminator?@
#3528 posted by RickyT33 on 2010/10/24 21:40:30
Anyone watch the series? It looked like season 3 was gonna be extremely complicated. Shame they didn't finish it. But even the first movie is full of holes. Just the idea of John Connor sending Kyle Reese back to rescue his mother, but How could there have been a future John Connor if he has to send his own father back in time to conceive him. How can he possibly be in a position to do that if he never existed?
 Hello Long Haul Air Travel!

The Last Airbender
Not very good.
2001: A Space Odyssey
I fell asleep in the slow (relative term here) bits. Still, to see this in the cinema in 1968 must have been quite something.
The A Team
I think I remember a review of this movie saying that it had no reason to exist at all. Well, they were wrong: it took away the pain of the last 2 hours of a 12 hour flight quite nicely. I wouldn't go so far as to say that it was good, but it was what I was looking for at the time.

have faulty logic (Ricky's already mentioned the massive hole in T1). 12 Monkeys is the one of the few that work from memory.
Also Primer, although you need to read the wiki entry to actually follow the bloody thing.
There's prbably others but I cant think of them right now.
 As For Indy 2

after the Hong Kong opening, it was all downhill.
1 and 3 are great films. 4 is decent IMHO.
