TV/Movies Megathread

That's not a gimmick; that's "high concept."

My big issue with Inception is that the actual "inception" (the business with the millionaire and his dad), is really uninteresting, and the scenes themselves fall flat on review once the fireworks no longer surprise you. The third act when Leo's wife takes center stage is really cool though, because then I care again.

I like the film, mind.

i thought the weakest part of the movie was the three hundred years of dream time Leonardo and the Nip dude spent trapped in that one level.  Some aging makeup and two scenes didn't do enough to convey the passage of time, which I thought was pretty important to the story.

The floating bodies worked for me, the bending cities worked for me.  Then again I haven't given it a rewatch yet.

[Norgy]

It was underwhelming.
The idea is good. The execution, not so much. And I agree with CountDeMoviereviwer, it was way too long.

I'm watching the BBC tiny-camera documentary, Life in the Undergrowth.  It's about bugs.  EWWWWW.

The Night of the Living Dead. They came for Barbara. 

[Razgovory]

Of that list, Frozen was the most entertaining. One of the chicks needed to piss in Olaf's mouth though to give it an A+

It's my niece's favorite movie now.  My sis went through a goth phase (or something), where she had a chip on shoulder about everything as a teenager.  She was mad that my dad used to call her princess and painted her room pink when she was really young.  Now my sis is more grown up and her daughter loves Disney princess movies and wants her parents to paint her room pink.

I've been impressed with Disney's output lately in the animated sphere. There for awhile, I cringed at the shit they was putting out.

Holy Fuck.  This season of Hannibal is so fucking perfect.  Fuck fuck fuck.

Largely concur.

That's not a gimmick; that's "high concept."

by god, you're right

[Ideologue]

The Purge 2 is looking like it might be the movie the first one always needed to be, and never quite was.  Probably a dumb thing to get excited over, but there you go.

[Josquius]

Hannibal picks up then? I gave the first episode a shot and didn't do anything for me.

her - best movie i've seen in a long time

[Eddie Teach]

Did they have as much chemistry as Lars and the Real Girl?

You didn't answer the question.
