latest film/ dvd you have seen

[Cazza]

Yeah, definitely. I was the same with Blade Runner- thought it was really meh on first viewing, second watch blew me away and has been one of my favourite films since.

 

[Palifan]

I saw C.H.U.D. from 1984 last night for the first time ever, I have heard so much good about that movie so finally I had to see it. A really great movie.

Rewatched Alien: Covenant yesterday. Only my second viewing after seeing it in the cinema. Really didn't like it first time around, but enjoyed it way more on the second go. Very grim in places, but way better put together than I realised- story holds up, effects great, decent acting and script and the throwback score ( to both Alien and Prometheus) was excellent. Glad I made the effort.

I have also only seen it one time, maybe I should find some time to see it again

Thanks, yes it is the time of the year for that I had a movie weekend so I will make an update today about what I have seen

 

[Pomse2001]

I had a movie weekend where I saw some great movies friday, saturday and sunday

First I saw, Invaders from Mars from 1986, it was the first time I saw it. I was very surprised and I think it was really great. Louise Fletcher was ******* crazy in that movie

I have also seen Alien Nation from 1988, I am not sure that I have seen it before. I just remember the aliens, so maybe I have seen the movie or the tv series when I was a kid But I think it was really great and James Caan are great as a cop in that movie

I have also seen The Curse, this was also the first time I saw this movie. I was surprised about how good it was. Wil Wheaton who I guess most of know from the movie Stand by me, has the major part in this horror movie.

Lars, have you seen the original Invaders From Mars? Watched that as a kid- great film, but pretty creepy when the sand starts moving!

No i have not seen the original one before. Is it still good ? I fear it was to old so i thought the 80s movie could maybe be better

 

[Pomse2001]

Last night I saw The Final Terror, I would say it was a fantastic horror movie

 

[Cazza]

No i have not seen the original one before. Is it still good ? I fear it was to old so i thought the 80s movie could maybe be better

In my opinion, the original is waaaaay better than the remake.

 

[Pomse2001]

Maybe I should see it one day. But my experience is scifi movies from the 50s and 60 are normally very bad. But since you say it is better maybe I should see it

 

[Pomse2001]

Last night I saw Crash and Burn, great scifi movie. I think it is the 3rd time I saw it. first time in the 90s and again in the 00s and now for the 3rd time last night and it is still a great movie.

 

[Pomse2001]

I have seen the new Transformers movie Rise of the Beasts. It was okay, but out the 7 transformers movies I will give it the 7th place. The other 6 movies before that one was much better than this movie.

 

[Pomse2001]

This weekend I saw a ******* crazy horror movie, I had 3 people in my mind that could be the killer and at the end of the movie when I saw the killer I was very surprised, what a shocking movie, I have learned that there is also 2,3,4 and a 5th movie. But I fear they are not as good as the first one, it is Sleepaway Camp from 1983

There is only one Transformers film, the cartoon one from the 80's.

Oh I did not know that, thanks

 

[Pomse2001]

The last couple of days I got 3 movies with good old Walter Matthau, I had never seen them before but I think they were really great.

The first one was a action movie, with a killer, who kill all the people in a bus, great movie.

the 2nd movie was a love/comedy movie where he was a doctor and he falled in love with a patient at the hospital where he works.

The last movie I saw was also a love/comedy where he was a dentist who had a young girl friend and his secretary was also in love with him. Very funny movie

Recently watched 'The Woman in Black' Daniel Radcliffe version.

Never heard about it, is it the harry potter guy who are on the cover ? is it good ?

 

[sith-smith]

Yep, though a different character to Harry Potter - which takes a bit of getting used to.

Personally I love it. I find it incredibly creepy, with no reliance on gore or jump scares.

Nice, I will see if I can find it with danish subtitles

 

[Pomse2001]

I got another movie with Walter Matthau, A New Leaf, it was very funny he is a rich guy who use more money than he have so one day he do not have more money. So he have to find a rich girl he can marry so he can be rich again

I watch a lot of awful movies (deliberately) because they're good to have on in the background while I'm doing things on the computer or house chores.

This week I got through:
Run Bitch Run (2009) = 2/10
Session 9 (2001) = 5/10
Kaw (2007) = 3/10
Flight 666 (2018) = 5/10

The last one was the only one that was moderately entertaining. Although I got it mixed up with Titanic 666 and so spent half the movie wondering where the heck AnnaLynne McCord was until I realised I'd put on the wrong film.

Just watching the Brawn GP documentary on Disney+

I'm a bit of a closet/failed F1 fan (used to watch it as a kid and on & off until around 2012 I guess, even more sporadically now.

Anyway, it's an interesting insight into one of the most interesting seasons/periods in F1 for probably 20 years now, my only gripe is why is Keane Reaves hosting it? He adds no valuable insight, no great presentation or interrogational skill, he's just famous.

 

[jayjedi]

Watched Oppenheimer and didn't think I would like it but I was blown away..... sorry it was very good

 

[Cazza]

Took the boys to see Godzilla Minus 1 this morning. Thought it was really excellent- a refreshing change to the monster films churned out by Hollywood. It had a proper story, characters with depth and who you root for, great effects etc etc. Thoroughly recommended!

 

[db94]

I've decided, that from January 1st, I'll only be watching videos in 1080p or higher.


It's my New Year's Resolution.

Watched Dune 2021 last night...not bad.

Watched Barbie the other day. Quite clever, well done etc, but the second half really dragged and the message was relentlessly on the nose, so much so, that it became tiresome. Overrated IMHO.

I took my nieces to watch it & can honestly say the best bit was getting to look at Margot Robbies arse for an hour & a half!
