Finally watched Oldboy. Heard a rumour about Hollywood remaking it with Will Smith :?
Also watched Mermaids (2003) which was wierd. Bit too adult for kids but too kiddy for adults.
I've got Outpost and The Mist waiting for me.

Quote:Also rented Cloverfield which was actually a lot better than I was expecting!Finally caught Cloverfield -- it was reduced in Asda. Intriguing idea for a movie. (Apparently it has its own Wikipedia.)

Cloverfield -- Godzilla meets the Blair Witch Project
They are already working on a Cloverfield II film even as we speak.
Hollywood love success, particularly a film that costs nothing and rakes in the box office gold.

Outpost ~ Watchable nonsense nazi horror film (has Pullo from Rome in it)
The Mist ~ Could have been so good! I laughed at the ending (which apparently differed from the Stephen King story) when I should have found it hugely upsetting!
40 Year Old Virgin ~ Silly bloke film but some rather funny parts. Disc stopped working near the end though :x

Pleasantville. Quirky (though a little predictable in places, which actually made the quirks more comfortable to me) but a lot of fun, and some good nostalgic moments for an old guy.

Quote:Pleasantville. Quirky (though a little predictable in places, which actually made the quirks more comfortable to me) but a lot of fun, and some good nostalgic moments for an old guy.Lovely movie, yes.
I saw Quantum of Solace tonight. Some good points: just like Casino Royale, Bond resembles the hero of the Fleming novels - a hard, sometimes cruel man, and not the dandy he was when Roger Moore played Bond. (It helps that Daniel Craig resembles Vladimir Putin.) His car is an Aston Martin, and not a BMW.
On the negative side: Alicia Keys' song. Of course you can't beat Louis Armstrong's "We have all the time in the world", but this was really substandard and made me wish that Amy Whitehouse will be up and running soon. And most of all: the villain is not a real villain. In the Christmas season, James Bond is there to safe the entire planet, at least. Now he saves just one country. Disappointing.
Still, in balance, entertaining. Not the best of all Bond movies, not the worst.

just saw Treasure Island (2007) - the n-th adaption ... entirely different from the book, but kinda enjoyable. in a weird way :?

last movie i saw: The lost World (from 1925). Very cool movie!
Re: The last film you watched.... - Narukami - 11-23-2008
Saw at the Theatre:
The new James Bond film Quantum of Solace.
A couple of incredible chase sequences -- amazing choreography, and generally engaging action (there is a gruesome echo from the film Goldfinger) though the plot is a bit weak. I think it is a lead up to a third part. No spoilers but a couple of key people escape to fight another day so that I think the next part will take up with the same group -- maybe. As the film has enjoyed "Boffo Box Office" (in the language of the Daily Variety) the producers are no doubt already working on the next Bond film.
An enjoyable winter diversion at the cinema.
:wink:

Failed to get to the end of Rat Race or Swamp Devil.
Saw Adrift on TV last night and is possibly the daftest film I've ever seen!
Rewatched Wall-E as it came out on DVD this week. Still adorable.
Rental company has just sent Teeth, not sure it's one for the guys!
