Fox catcher
Anyone? I was not expecting that. Also, did they.....?

I thought it was good, Wacky. Always interesting to see an actor like Carrell play a serious role when you're used to seeing him in comedies. I had not heard the story of the Schultz Bros before so the ending was a little surprising, but also kinda predictable.

And for a couple moments in the middle of the movie I wondered the same thing

(I don't think they did tho)

The RL Mark Schultz was supper pissed for even suggesting that they did, after the movie came out.

This.

Would you like one thousand sequels, focusing on the individual stories of each tom cruise?

K2: Siren of the Himalayas

Breathtaking. The limits some people are able to push themselves to are almost incomprehensible to me. A beautiful portrait of an alien world here on earth perfectly accented with a parallel historical perspective.

Saw Insurgent yesterday. It was pretty rad.

Commando

Arnold and the black woman go to town on evil after he rips the seat out of her car.

great movie, that is tommy chong's daughter. pay special attention during the scene when the 911 is wrecked. they showed the wrong side being damaged. :sleuth:

let the right one in was pretty awesome, as far as the scandinavian romantic vampire horror genre goes

The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Her & Him were worthwhile. Will not watch Them.

I admire the effort and thought more so than the result. Overall good tone. < most important*

Disappointed in:

Birdman
Gone Girl
Foxcatcher
Nightcrawler
St. Vincent

And especially Boyhood

Not:
Whiplash
Good to see examination of motivation and motivators. And mostly* a devotion to one thing.

interested to hear what disappointed you about Birdman

The Water Diviner: great movie for your dad to watch!

Disappointed in:

Birdman- Too much cussing for him
Gone Girl- Too much lust for him
Foxcatcher- He hates gays
Nightcrawler- Murder is sin
St. Vincent -Never saw it

And especially Boyhood- They question god in the movie

Not:
Whiplash - Dude plays the crap out of those drums

Any motion picture concerned with the stage is bound to fail. A waste of art on sub-art. And you got to give Lubezki some room to work, man.

PoetWarrior · « **Reply #5569 on:** March 31, 2015, 01:26:56 PM »

I judge the morality of motion pictures.

Doing so is part of the three tests of Art.

PoetWarrior · « **Reply #5570 on:** March 31, 2015, 01:32:28 PM »

Not bad:
Beyond the Lights
John Wick
I Origins
The Drop
Fury

Bad:
Honeymoon
The Skeleton Twins

i understand why you didn't like skeleton twins. but i enjoyed watching it. poor luke wilson.

Nightcrawler was like Gangs of New York for me in that I only enjoyed one actor's perfomance/character, but to an extreme degree. The plots and movies as a whole were really secondary to my enjoyment. Inconsequential even.

I'm rough ridin' watching John Wick.
