Movies - General Discussion

[jaadam4]

Hmm.. I'm gonna go movie hopping tomorrow. Got tix to Da Vinci code so maybe I'll duck into MI3.

Went to the movies Friday for the first time since The Aviator was on the big screen, to watch The DaVinci Code .... thought it was on the boring side, if it wasn't for the horribly uncomfortable seat I was it would have been an $8.50 nap.

Watched King Kong on pay-per-view last night ... I was entertained in a bemused way, but dang were parts of that movie stupid/bad.

The book was a better but I thought the movie was good. I liked it quite a bit. I hated the Aviator. I thought that movie was long and boring.

Anyone see Poseidon yet?

I found the Aviator very interesting, but then, I've always found biographical movies to be pretty interesting. Really enjoyed Robert Downey Jr. as Charlie Chaplin in Chaplin.

I'm going to see Da Vinci Code on Wednesday. I've read it (along with Angels and Demons), so I'm interested to see how it plays on the big screen.

I saw Poseidon last weekend. I don't know why, but I am fascinated by waves, storms and such on the ocean, so I like going to see those types of movies, no matter how cheesy. I wasn't expecting too much, but it was a pretty good summer action flick. It's pretty much no nonsense from the get go, if a little ridiculous at times (but hey, it's a giant upside down cruise ship).

X3 hits theatres this weekend - should be interesting!! I predict that Wolverine is going to gut Magneto with his claws, causing Magneto to rip out all of the admantium from his body putting him into a coma....and that's how it will end.....

[jaadam4]

X3 started off really good but i thought it died at the end. I wasnt really all that impressed to honest with you. Anyone else see it?

[jaadam4]

Anyone see The Breakup yet? I heard it was pretty good.

[romster]

Not yet. I was disappointed in Glory Road. This kind of movie is one my favorite genres - based-on-a-true-story-sports-team-beating-the-odds-to-triumph, toss in something like race relations and I'm all gaga (Remember the Titans is one of my all-time favorite movies). Glory Road could've been so much better. Unfortunately, and it pains me to say it because he's just too cute, Josh Lucas was woefully miscast. He's a little too pretty to be taken seriously as a tough coach.

The Break Up was pretty good but it wasnt in the mold of Vince Vaughns other funny movies. He was funny but it wasnt a light movie. It was a bit more serious then I was expecting.

Good watch tho.

I ordered/on-demanded/pay-per-viewed (what's the right term??) Mr. and Mrs. Smith over the weekend. I had no idea Vince Vaughn was in that. That's kind of strange, considering who he's dating now.

[SeattleLionsFan]

LOL. I hadn't thought of that Deb.

Maybe Brad was like, "You know that Jennifer is a terrific piece of a@#!"

[jaadam4]

Well she certainly looked good in The Break Up

I thought Mr and Mrs Smith couldve ended a whole lot better then it did.

[FVD]

That's funny, I thought the same thing about The Breakup. I thought it was a little bit too long, and the ending sucked.

[romster]

Kinda like most relationships that don't work out.
