They're similar to The Hangover and Superbad... at least from what I hear as I've never seen The Hangover or Superbad. 

Pinapple Express is a bit more slapstick, but not by much. Due date is actually quite touching.

I'd give 'em both 8. Maybe 9 and 8 respectively. 

have seen both of those. well, i saw the first 30 minutes of due date and turned off, didn't get what was supposed to be funny about it at all :S i remember pineapple being quite fun though, may watch again sometime

interesting huckabees got a mention as i only saw that a couple of nights ago. some interesting ideas but it all felt a bit pointless and directionless (maybe that was intentional given the theme) and it just seemed to forget to be funny amidst all the pseudo-intellectual psycho babble. i can see why people like it, but not for me. will check little miss sunshine out though as i've heard a few good reviews about that :) 

is worth it for first half.

Hot Fuzz fits the hangover bill (not the movie, the condition). 

...in a ridiculously over-the-top kinda way.

Colin Farrel. Excruciatingly well done. Bawled at end. 

Haven't seen Bottle Rocket, but every other movie he's done. I think he's a pretty damn fine director, even though his movies all have eerily similar characters and settings, they feel pretty different from each other.

Love them all so far, probably tied for favorite are Fantastic Mr Fox and Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, both are top notch. 

Rushmore, and Darjeeling for me. The rest are ok too. 

I was so stoked for that but it was pretty meh, really. 

You have to be difficult, don't you nitin? 

although I think this time I was being less difficult then usual? 

Was great. Nice ending, too. 

Marble Hornets is a very well done (ongoing) horror series on Youtube. It's creepy, meandering and unsettling, and there's absolutely no shitty gore, screamers, or little girls with overly long hair. 

Date night (2010)
Thoroughly enjoyed it. Light-hearted comedy. Car sequence was a bit meh. Steve carell owns. 

Two old timey (1950, 1956) Noir movies about heists - which inevitably result in all of the robbers getting killed or arrested. Both are pretty good but as you probably could guess feel 85% the same.

I have to lean toward Asphalt Jungle as the better movie - not necessarily because it was overall better, but because how the final robber in The Killing gets caught feels like a lame twist of fate instead of a realistic ending (spoiler: A locked suitcase falls off of a baggage cart on a runway, busting open and all the money inside spilling out in a tornado of wealth) against the police hunting down the criminals except the final one, who dies in a field from a bullet wound. (/spoiler)

I just preferred Asphalt Jungle's ending to The Killing's, but otherwise they're both excellent noir heist flicks. 

I prefer The Killing myself, slightly more tense IMHO, but Asphalt has some great characteriations. 

SO difficult! 

Why do so many horror fans wank on about Switchblade Romance/High Tension?

All it really was is your typical baddie enters house and series of "high tension" scenes where she hides from said baddie, then decides to save her friend but goes about it in the most stupid ways instead of just walking up behind baddie and stabbing him in the fucking neck. And then <spoiler> it turns into a split personality thing where she was the baddie the whole time which rips the entire movie to pieces since most of the scenes never actually took place.

I was expecting more, but I guess having seen Piranha just weeks before, from the same director, I shouldn't have expected horror greatness.

Oh I have been watching the Hellraiser series too. The first movie was good, #2 was fantastic. Up to #3 next, but accidentally saw #6 ahead of time because of incorrect numbering on the Korean dvds. But #6 (Hellseeker) was fucking shit and had nothing to do with the Hellraiser series at all. 

Halloween 3 had nothing to do with the Halloween series, but worth the look if you like really cheesy horror. I mean like so bad you would show your kids so they could get a good laugh kind of horror. 

<@Zwiffle> omg Sam and Diane you guys :(
* @Zwiffle just watched Cheers Season 5 finale
<@Zwiffle> i am heartbroken, mainly because i have a beer with each episode of cheers i watch, and i watched the last ~7 episodes of season 5 in a row 

is great until the last 10 min IMHO. Sure it is nothing new, but for what it is in that period, it is very well made. Or at least I thought so. 

just playing my role man... 

I'm not sure if I would still like the Hellraiser movies as much as I did when I saw them initially, but I actually thought Hellraisers 1, 2, 3, 4 (bloodline) and 5 (the weird detective one) were all actually quite good. 3 was the weakest. 4 and 5 introduced new enough concepts to get some mileage out of it. probably the most successful slasher franchise in keeping things actually interesting. nevertheless, I did not bother to watch any more as I felt like that would be pushing it. 

is 2 actually decent? 1 is pretty gay in some parts by modern standards.
love haute tension. Hate the ending, should have just stuck with it.
I do prefer his Hills Have Eyes though. 

not seen any of the others. as i recall (it's been 10 years or so since i've seen either) 2 had less of a plot than the first, but was darker and more twisted, mostly taking place in the underworld. the hellish set designs were both inspiring and genuinely quite disturbing; i'd recommend it to any quake fan for that ;)
