No Country for Old Men 5/5

THis movie is actually very similar to The Big Lebowski.
Except this time there actually is money in the bag and the
Nihilist it attracts is genuinely terrifying.

it's nothing like the big lebowski. i just need to say that
in case someone reads your post and goes in expecting it to
be like that movie.

All I'm saying is there were many similarities. but yeah,
it is a completely different kind of movie.

many similarities but completely different? Does the cake
feel and taste good that you just both had and ate?

also, not a movie exactly, but just watched half of Nathan
Barley: 9/10

1) Transformers is great but I can understand
2) The Holy Mountain and El Topo are great and I don't
understand
3) Caligula is one of the best and most unique films I've
ever seen, and I don't care if everyone thinks it's a
failure

haha, superbad is good as. it's like all those american

i also forgot to mention, week ago i saw Blade Runner (final
cut) at a cinema.didn't really notice all that much
difference, but it's been remastered and cleaned up really
nicely.

I saw Blade Runner: The Final Cut and was blown away by the
pristine print. The picture was so clear and vibrant. I
think it was one of the most visually striking movies I've
seen on the big screen. It was just an amazing cinema
experience that will be hard to top.

No Country for Old Men - 3.5/5

I would have given this a lower rating, but during the drive
home after watching the movie I came up with an idea of what
the movie was about. What it was trying to say/the main
theme. What I came up with, whether wrong or right, gave the
movie form, giving it sense and making it satisfying.

i just saw one movie with al pachino from 1980 where he is
an undercover cop searching for a killer that kills gay
people.

from imdb: A police detective goes undercover in the sleazy
and underground gay subculture of New York City to catch a
serial killer who is murdering numerous gay men with S&M
tactics.

Cruising 3/5

i havent seen that pacino movie but i read somewhere the
censors cut it so badly it didnt really make sense so the
director inserted loads of tiny subliminal frames of real
hardcore man sex that went by so fast nobody noticed which
is amusing when you realise theyve showed that movie on tv
loads of times.!>!<>< I give that story if its true 10/10
as for films i saw recently i give joy division the movie
0.000000/1000000000 even though loads of people say its

transformers - 1/5 - jesus christ! wtf! these big budget cgi
action movies keep gettinfg worse. the characters showed no
signs of any depth whatsoever. the score was dreadful, at
times it sounded like they lifted it straight from
armageddon. so much potential, so incredibly poorly
executed. oh my lord, jesus and satan. what's the world
coming to.

hostel part 2 - 3.5/5 - an improvement on the first one. it
was cool being shown how the whole thing works. good ending.

the darjeeling limited - 3/5 - saw it on the plane. was
really noisy and picture quality was limited + the ratio was
messed up. but i have a feeling it would be better on the
big screen. must see it. seems mr anderson let his hair down
a bit on this one, which is nice. film makers need to this.
you cannot consistently create huge opuses like the life

well, it was 1979. Kirk is so fucking classic in that, he
doesn't know what the hell is going on, he'd be lost without
his crew. It's good because it's lame. My favouritre scene
is the wormhole slowmotion scene. Really classic. Fair
enough though, if you didn't like it.

the best part is when it shows the enterprise from every
possible angle for nearly twenty minutes while the music
swells ludicrously and all the girls get up and leave the
theatre while the fat nerds who remain whip out their dicks
and slap each other with them whilst drowning in their own
semen.

that line was hilarious! you may need to keep in mind that
start trek had been a television show for many years before
the motion picture and when audiences finally had a chance
to view the enterprise on the big screen it was a major
event. that's why they view it from every angle for such a
long period of time. of course, it is 2007 and that viewing
experience doesn't apply to us, but i enjoy whisking myself
back to that time and trying to imagine what it must have
been like for audiences then. i am, however, unable to
escape 2007 completely. as much i try to see it from their
point of view, i am ultimately seeing it from my own. which
is a good thing because to them Kirk seemed normal, where to
me his acting is rife with campness.

The first half was okay. When it was just him and his dog
wandering around an empty NYC.

But then when the story should've started laying the
groundwork for some substance it fell flat. The dark
seekers were completely one dimensional mindless evil
characters that I didn't sympathize with at all, and any
sort of meaning to the disaster never materialized.

The last 30 minutes felt basically like bit of tacked on
cliche to justify the budget that went into creating an
empty cityscape for the first hour of film.
