TV/Movies Megathread

Nolan went out of his way to select his favorite storylines from the batman mythos emphasising the darkness of the character; that means there can be no robin, there can only be batman.

The earlier series would have done better to exclude Robin as well.

Well yes. If you add robin batman has to get less dark. He's suddenly the responsible adult and has to be nicer, more PG13.

Prometheus- I was told it sucked. It was actually rather good. Though the whole thing felt like one big commercial for Prometheus 2. They explained nothing. The alien never said anything. It makes no sense...one killed himself to make humans (why the need to die?) now they're wanting to launch war? Some sort of alien religious war going on?
The directors cut should be interesting. So many sub plots which werent developed. Including all the characters.
Wonder what was with the super sized face hugger and primitive alien.

Lockout. What the fuck, Guy Pearce?

Verdict: I'd fuck Marion Cotillard into the stratosphere, even if she's an idiot who thinks 9/11 was a CIA plot.

I'd want to pound that bump in her forehead back down with my dick.

Hey, CDM, if you're trying to be all edgy and shit with your avatar/title combo, you really ought to replace Mola Ram with Transformer Kid.

[CountDeMoney]

Fuck you.  Cinema heathens.

I don't expect any less from a forum that prefers Tombstone over Wyatt Earp anyway.  Philistines.

Gotta support the ToD love...

Austrian archaeologist lady is hotter than annoying singer lady.

For Indy gals, Karen Allen tops the blondies.

"A Face in the Crowd".

Pretty good.  Andy Griffith was good as the star, of course, but I actually thought the understated Walter Matthau was the best actor in the film.

"The Snow Walker"

A passable Canadian film using the tired plot of "asshole white guy carrying a sick Inuit hottie in his bush plane, crashes, freaks out, and then goes all "Dances with Hottie Inuit" to learn how to survive on the tundra after his white-man ways lead him to black fly-bitten despair".

2 wrestled-to-death-caribou out of 10.  And those 2 are only because the Inuit actress was damned cute.

Awesome movie.

Ugh, Canadian flicks.

My favorite emo-quote from Matthau's character, who has an obvious crush on the leading lady (who herself lusts after the Andy Griffith character)...

"For a mild man, you sound vicious."             

"Didn't you know?  All mild men are vicious.  They hate themselves for being mild and the extroverts whose violence...has a strange attraction for nice girls who should know better."

Sherlock Holmes 2. Alright, not as good as first.
