TV/Movies Megathread

[Ideologue]

I meant Heaven's Gate.

[Duque de Bragança]

I bought Kagemusha, Last Temptation of Christ and Heaven's Gate in an earlier sale, when the € was stronger. I'm considering taking The Bridge (Die Brücke).
Or, if you get an interesting voucher, you could take the Cassavetes or Tati boxset.
I don't know what you already have so it's hard to be more specific.

PS: edit for Heaven's Gate, as I thought

[viper37]

I think there was a US remake with Queen Latifa some years ago.

Avoid this at all costs.

Goddamn Banshee.

[spoiler]Stop killing off the hot women[/spoiler]

yeah, it's a shame.   They'll need new ones for the 4th season.

Turns out I have about $1400 more than I thought I did in my savings!

So I did what a responsible adult would do, and wound up buying:

Rushmore
All That Heaven Allows
Kagemusha
Last Temptation of Christ
My Darling Clementine
Hunger
Ace in the Hole
Sullivan's Travels
and 12 Angry Men.

I also got non-Criterion stuff, namely Focus, The Searchers, Thelma and Louise, and The Piano.

[The Brain]

How good is Criterion Kagemusha? Is it a long version?

[Ideologue]

The technical site reviews are good, as they almost uniformly are for Criterion discs.

[The Brain]

I don't trust them. I trust you.

[Ideologue]

I'll let you know.

I'll tell you what I really wish would get a Criterion or any release, Heaven and Earth (the Japanese one).  Love those samurai costumes so Goddamned much.

[Ideologue]

Oh, right, reviews and stuff.

Ant-Man (2015).  Delightfully pure adventure cinema is here, and if you ever had your doubts about Ant-Man, consider your dumb doubts dispelled.  Seriously, what was wrong with you?  9/10

And the Terminator series, I'll be getting back around to Genisys this weekend.

The Terminator (1984).  Robots killing humans doesn't get much better than this.  9/10

Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991).  Robots killing humans only gets better than this when it's in space.  10/10

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003).  Piece of crap or unacknowledged classic?  Can it be both?  6/10

Terminator: Salvation (2009).  The nadir of the franchise.  One hopes.  3/10

Fuckin' awesome.

Nothing beats 120-pounds Western blonde chicks dressing as Takeda and Uesugi samurai.

I'd exchanged the scores for Salvation and T3.  Or at least put them equal.

Did you review Genysis yet?

You should review more Schwarzenegger movies in general. Predator and True Lies are a must.

And don't forget THEM!
