What was the last movie you saw? - Page 163 - Science Fiction Fantasy Chronicles: forums

Sathai · 21st May 2007, 11:16 PM

Yesterday I watched Notes on a Scandal. I thought it was pretty good.

I have watched some pretty crappy movies lately so I won't mention them. The last good one I saw was Beowulf and Grendel...what's not to like about Gerard Butler?

Highlander II · 23rd May 2007, 04:32 AM

Haven't been in here in a while... I am v. bad.

Maybe that's why I had to sit through a bad movie that even Hugh Laurie falling down couldn't fix - ugh.

I may have to go watch House, just to get over it. But I watched, recently, "Girl From Rio" and "The Fountain" (since it released last week).

I watched Shrek 2 last night.

HoopyFrood · 26th May 2007, 01:26 PM

Me again? No one watched any films lately, then?

I watched Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End on Thursday. I'm not a great fan of the films but they're entertaining at least. Jack Sparrow is brilliant but he didn't seem to do much in this final film. The love/hate thing between Will and Elizabeth was just annoying and their getting-married-while-fighting-in-a-life-threatening-storm was needlessly dramatic. Also, the plot seemed to move all over the place...too much was shoved into one film and people kept doing things and changing sides and their reasons weren't really explained!

But meh, I got to dress as a pirate to watch it, so it wasn't all bad.

Just watched Predator. So bad it's good.

I'm gonna bleed you, real quiet like, and leave you here.... That guy is so freaky looking. Talk about crazy eyes.

I've just finished watching Severance - it's like The Office, crossed with Shaun of the Dead, crossed with Deliverance. Brilliant film, and one I've been wanting to see since it came out.

Lenny · 26th May 2007, 04:18 PM

Two and a half hours later, and I've just finished watching Hot Fuzz - another film I've been wanting to see since it came out. Absolutely brilliant!

HoopyFrood · 26th May 2007, 04:59 PM

Oh, I freaking love that film! I saw it twice at the cinema and I'm eagerly awaiting the release of the DVD.

Delightfully gory. Wonderfully funny. Fantastic film!

Rane Longfox · 26th May 2007, 05:57 PM

Watched Pirates 3 at the cinema yesterday afternoon, and my new dvd, Stranger than Fiction last night.

Both pretty damn good

Lenny · 26th May 2007, 10:57 PM

Third film today... oooh! Get me!

Borat, this evening. Rather, shall we say, strange. My favourite bit has to be one of the deleted scenes - Borat in the supermarket asking what every single item in the cheese section is. You just have to admire the patience of the fella who is showing him around the supermarket.

HardScienceFan · 26th May 2007, 11:11 PM

TROY,am still watching it,.... sort of,like

HoopyFrood · 27th May 2007, 12:09 AM

I've just watched Fight Club. Pretty darn good! And yay, get me, I worked out the twist at the end. Although there were a number of clues:

1. Flashes of "Tyler" at the beginning when the guy's got insomnia.
2. No one says the guy's name until you find out about Tyler.
3. Tyler is pretty much the antithesis of the guy...everything that he's not.
4. The biggest clue for me was the line "If you wake up in different times and different places, will you be a different person?

Anyway, very good film, enjoyed it!
The song at the end was very cool as well

I loved FUGHT CLUB,sorry fight club,Norton was great also!

Rane Longfox · 27th May 2007, 01:32 AM

Yeah, but the book was so much better than the film (that applies to both the Illiad and Fight Club, thinking about it

)
