Mrs. Plant Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 You gave it a B? Are you crazy? that movie deserved a A as far as comic movies go. I'd say it was the second best comic adaptation since Batman Begins. The ending doesn't make much sense, as far as the comics are concerned. Tony Stark never revealed himself to be Iron Man, aside from the Civil War story line. Iron Man was always known to be Tony Starks bodyguard. Yes. B. My picky film major self critiques movies too much. Your just going to have to deal with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gainsbarre Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 (edited) But that dude is not the type of guy that women want to see naked is it? That's what amazed me about that film... He wasn't particularly good looking and he wasn't particularly charismatic personality-wise, yet he kept getting the babes... I think he was being overly optimistic about himself, becausehe also wrote the film. Edited May 5, 2008 by Gainsbarre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrum Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 the trouble with harry. Its the funniest movie Hitch ever made Just watched 'Vertigo' considered Hitchcock's best film. Kim Novak is gorgeous as the redhead. Watching 'The Birds' tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spats Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 That's what amazed me about that film... He wasn't particularly good looking and he wasn't particularly charismatic personality-wise, yet he kept getting the babes... I think he was being overly optimistic about himself, becausehe also wrote the film. yet that wouldn't happen in real life. Guys that look like him don't have women all over him. All of these movies like this and Knocked up are unrealistic. You have these schlub looking guys and they are getting all of these pretty women. Like Seth Rogen getting Katherine Heigal in Knocked Up. Not in the real world. I am getting tired of these "goofy slob hooks up with babe" movies. They don't portray men very well.

DoubleNecker Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Finally watched Pirates of the Carribean: At World's End last night. I liked it a lot. So different and explains some things. And Keith was awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footsteps of Dawn Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 I saw Iron Man, yaaaay! Finally. I would've been there opening day if I hadn't had the busiest week ever. Anyway, I thought it was great! Could've used just a tad more action, if you ask me, but all in all it was fabulous. My second-favorite superhero movie after Batman Begins.

spats Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 I saw Harold and Kumar. Damn funny film. I had way more fun seeing that than i did at the bowling alley the last couple weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleNecker Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Well, a bowling alley is a bowling alley. It's not a movie, and I don't think Harold and Kumar is funny. To me, it's like the American Pie movies, aimed towards college youth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, it's like the American Pie movies, aimed towards college youth. If a bowling alley was a movie it would be a horror movie. I thought Harold and Kumar it was hilarious. it was better than Ironman which is incredibly overrated. And that movie is also aimed at people that haven't "grown up".

Desperado Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 In my opinion the movie industry has gone downhill as far as the quality of films and acting in general. They have replaced good acting with super technology and gimicks. In the old days you had to know how to act. If you go to 50 movies you might catch 2 or 3 that are good and one that is great. they are pumping out so much garbage now. And they know there are enough idiots out there that will go like lambs to the slaughter to see it. Not me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suz Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 Baby Mama was funnier than I thought it would be. I really like Tina Fey, but it was Amy Poehler who cracked me up the most. Plus, Steve Martin does a good weirdo corporate hippie type. I generally don't like childbirth as comedy, 'cause it ain't funny when you're doing it! But I died laughing at A.P. when they got to the hospital. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually the guy who wrote and starred in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, I saw him on David Letterman, and he said that the movie studio tested some advertising for the movie, and found that most people were put off going to see the film if he was in the ad... So that's why none of the posters for the movie featured him, well not close up, anyway... And yet, we're supposed to believe in the movie that this same guy is the one getting all these babes??

bigstickbonzo Posted May 23, 2008 Author Share Posted May 23, 2008 (edited) Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Great action, definitely worth seeing if you're a fan of the franchise. Last Crusade is the superior closer for the series however. Edited to Add: I didn't want to do a full review and give anything away so I'll leave that for a further time once people have had a chance to see it.
