If you look around, movies are everywhere, my avatar is from a movie, some internet memes owe their birth to certain movies, your cousin in Arizona still has a movie poster for "eight legged freaks" on the wall of his room, movies are everywhere. So discuss movies here. To kick this off, I went and saw "Journey to The Center of The Earth". The movie was okay, but the best part was that they gave you these awesome Steve Urkel-like 3-D glasses.

Mystery Science Theater 3000.

I read the book.I know the movie had almost nothing to do with it, but for me it was stupid fun.Just like Quake III.

Badwolf · 09/01/2008, 04:21 pm

Last film I saw at the cinema was Wall•E, which was pretty good.

Last film I watched on Youtube was Ratatoing (a blatant Ratatouille ripoff). It was terrible, but it gave me and a mate something to mock for the hour it lasted.

I never read the book so I would not know that

. Sorry.

someguyfromazoo · 09/01/2008, 05:23 pm

And that is why you read the book before you watch the movie.I know book based movies usually don't EXACTLY follow the plot, but just the POSTER WAS RIDICULOUS.

TrogLlama · 09/01/2008, 07:15 pm

The last movie I watched was Metal Gear Solid 4.
No, just kidding (I don't even own a PS3). Actually, it was The Dark Knight. Pretty good film- Heath Ledger was amazing, of course, but I actually really liked the way the Joker was re-imagined for it. Much more psychotic, yet slightly toned down- still a sociopathic trickster, but with a darker, more sophisticated sense of humor.

ShaggE · 09/01/2008, 11:36 pm

I've been watching a lot of independent horror lately, mostly films distributed by Troma. Unfortunately, for every good movie I come across, I end up sitting through five or six unwatchable piles of whatsit. But I guess that's the fun of digging through Z-grade flicks.

I'm starting to get a bit Troma'd out, though, so I've more recently been rewatching Kevin Smith's stuff (Side note: I had never seen Chasing Amy before. That movie is top friggin' notch.

), and I'm looking to get into Alejandro Jodorowsky's films.

Molokov · 09/02/2008, 04:53 am

Saw Hellboy 2 on Saturday. Yes, it's FINALLY been released in Australia.

Next week, we're seeing Wall-E, which once again, has FINALLY reached our shores after a several month delay.

Don't ask me why... we got The Dark Knight the day before the US did, but some films (even big releases like Wall-E) get delayed for no apparent reason.

Botap · 09/02/2008, 06:02 am

Anyone who enjoed The Departed, which was a fine film, needs to watch the original Honk Kong movie it was based on, Infernal Affairs. Tony Leung was much better at his role than Leonardo DiCaprio.

Also, Primer is the only movie involving time travel that should be allowed to exist.

yoshimickster · 09/02/2008, 06:53 pm

When are they gonna make a Chad Vader movie. Now that would be awesome!

ShaggE · 09/04/2008, 05:18 pm

I just watched the first 10 minutes of Karate Kid 3, having only ever seen the first two.

...

My gods, what happened? I had heard it was bad, but so was KK2, in a good way. This... yech. Kill it with fire.

someguyfromazoo · 09/04/2008, 05:26 pm

Yes, that probably would never end well.

Shambling Corporate Poster · 09/04/2008, 05:51 pm

Saw. I watched Saw. I screamed I screamed again. Then i screamed some more. Then the guy cut his foot off. Then I REALLY screamed.

Lol, anyways, I watched Tropic Thunder, too. It was HILARIOUS!

Judging by your reaction, I'm assuming you haven't seen "The Next Karate Kid." Or, as I call it, "Karate Kid 4: Pat Morita Has Bills To Pay."

someguyfromazoo · 09/04/2008, 07:38 pm

Wait, there was a FOURTH?!?!?!?!?

I refuse to watch that one. There is only one Karate Kid, and it isn't Hilary friggin' Swank.
