The Larch

I've been watching Entourage, half way through the second season.  I really wish I had a multimillionaire movie star best friend to mooch cars, booze, and groupies off of.   :(

So you're a Turtle kind of guy, then?  ;)

This is England. Pretty good, though I found the soundtrack annoying at times.

What didn't you like about the soundtrack? The songs themselves, the timing?

Martinus

Anyone has seen the latest Harry Potter movie yet? I was planning to see it, heard it is pretty good.

Grey Fox

Yeah.

It's "ok". Too much is left unsaid, especially if you haven't read the books.
Colonel Caliga is Awesome.

Darth Wagtaros

It was slow moving.  And the end was too shortened to be meaningful. 
PDH!

Admiral Yi

How does the little redheaded minx look this go around?

Grey Fox

There's 2 now & they make us wanna go to jail.

:lol: Best 8 Mile review ever.  So wigger trash really are that stupid.

Did you expect anything else?  The film is more or less Eminem's autobiography; except for the part where he defends his gay co-worker in a rap duel, I'm pretty sure that didn't happen.

In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

Duque de Bragança

Currently running on a movie channel:

"Don't touch the white woman!"
A 1974 French movie about Little Big Horn. The twist: the actors are costumed, but the movie is filmed on location in Paris. So you may see Custer riding down a modern Paris street, berating his low morale soldiers who hang around in a bistro. Site of the battle is the construction site of the Centre Pompidou. Kind of as if reenactors stage the scenes in an urban environment. The only one so far dressed casually is anthropologist Pinkerton, wearing jeans and a university sweater.

Rather surreal.

Missed it at the Cinémathèque not long ago :(

Where the fuck have you been?  :mad:

Green Lantern: First Flight. An animated feature from DC... These movies might be the best thing DC has going right now. Highly entertaining re-telling of Hal Jordan with Sinestro, Kilowog, the old Jewish Tailor version of the Guardians, and I tell ya what Victor Garber was born to Voice Sinestro. Kick ass. Some great Cosmic battles.

Well animated, acted. Also there's a sneak peak in the extra features at the next one Superman/Batman: Most Wanted or something... has guest shots from like the entire DCU... looks fun for us comic :nerd: s

8.5 :nerd: s outta 10
:p

Little of both.

As Grey Fox said it's OK, but seems quite rushed, specially the ending. I have heard the next book will be split in two movies, and I think they probably should have done the same with this one.

I haven't seen the new one yet but I agree.  The movies seem to be fine if you already know the story, but they had to cut too much out to make it a very meaningful stand-alone film.
