Saw "The Room" at The Tower with the girlfriend and a group of friends. It was fun having people heckle throughout. We tried to sync up the Rifftrax for it, but we didn't get in the theater in enough time."I don't know the origin of said bitch booming."-Art Vandelay

"The Conspirator"
Overall it was pretty good and the acting was really well done. I knew some of the story going in, so that helped. I enjoyed it though."They're good. They've always been good" - David Shaw.
Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

I watched Takashi Miike's Sukiyaki Western Django with my monthly Movie Club on Saturday. It's a bizarre Western starring Asian actors speaking their English dialogue phonetically. Weird as hell and didn't make a lick of sense, but visually, it was fun to look at.
SS and I also rewatched Flirting With Disaster, a pretty hilarious screwball comedy from the mid 90s with Ben Stiller.
We followed that up with The Limey, a solid revenge movie with Terence Stamp.Last edited by Green Lantern; 08-29-2011, 09:21 AM.Kids in general these days seem more socially retarded...
None of them date. They hang out. They text. They sit in the same car or room and don't say a word...they text. Then, they go home and whack off to internet porn.
I think that's the sad truth about why these kids are retards.

Highly enjoyable. I love Cate Blanchett, and she stole the show.
We saw "Rise of the planet of the Apes" Saturday afternoon (it was about 103 degrees outside, so any movies seemed like a good idea). I was pleasantly surprised for the first 2/3 of the movie but they ruined it with the last third (the battle on the Golden Gate and everything after). It went from an interesting sci-fi movie with an intriguing premise to a silly one, IMO, complete with explosions, helicopters, weaponry of all kinds and a host of implausibilties that overcame the story line.
It was still better than being out in the heat.“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”

My Name is Nobody (1973) starring Henry Fonda and Terence Hill
One of my favorite movies, but it had been a long time since I last saw it.Col. Klink: "Staff officers are so clever."
Gen. Burkhalter: "Klink, I am a staff officer."
Col. Klink: "I didn't mean you sir, you're not clever."

Originally posted by Green Lantern View PostBO, which night did you go? I went with a friend to Friday's screening and it was a blast. People throwing hundreds of plastic spoons at the screen, tossing roses during the love scenes, yelling "Oh, hey Denny" every time he entered the scene. I hope they make that an annual thing because I will go every time.
My favorite part is when the audience groaned every time Lisa's goiter flared up.
They also cheered wildly when Johnny said his immortal line: "you're tearing me apart, Lisa!""I don't know the origin of said bitch booming."-Art Vandelay

I watched 'Too Big to Fail' on HBO last night. I'm not sure of the accuracy but it seemed to fill in a lot of the gaps in the whole TARP/bailout situation. I learned a lot and was very entertained."Either evolution or intelligent design can account for the athlete, but neither can account for the sports fan." - Robert Brault

A Fist Full of Dollars (1964) and For a Few Dollars More (1965) starring Clint Eastwood in both and Lee Van Cleef in the latter.
The first two movies of Sergio Leone's "Man with no name" trilogy. The first was good and the second was excellent.Col. Klink: "Staff officers are so clever."
Gen. Burkhalter: "Klink, I am a staff officer."
Col. Klink: "I didn't mean you sir, you're not clever."

"Life During Wartime"
Todd Solondz described it as a "semi-sequel" to "Happiness". Semi because it's comprised of virtually the same characters, but completely re-cast (notably, Omar from The Wire as Phillip Seymour Hoffman's character, and Paul Reubens as Jon Lovitz's character).
The themes running through the film are interesting, and the performances are good, but compared to "Happiness" it falls short."I don't know the origin of said bitch booming."-Art Vandelay
