Strider Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Now we're talkin'! One of the greatest movies ever made. Not to sound like a troglodyte, but if you're a guy and haven't seen this movie, you should have your man-card revoked. Was going to see "The Hobbit" tonight, but a hectic day working left me too tired and so I decided to go home and stay in for the night getting presents sorted and wrapped.

redrum Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Not much has changed since this came out. Politicians are still a lot of scumbags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jb126 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Absolutely incredible performances by Daniel Day Lewis and Tommy Lee Jones. Really like this film. Should wine bunches of awards. Can't see the image, but I am certain you are talking about "Lincoln". Supposed to see it on the weekend, really looking forward to it. A few recent movies I've seen for the first time "Miracle", the movie about the 1980 USA Olympic Hockey Team. I thought the end was rushed, but Kurt Russell did a good job. I also saw the ridiculous Farrelly brother's "Stuck On You", it did have me laughing, however. As I type, I have one eye on the 1996 version of "Romeo and Juliet". What a cast! Not sure about this one, but I am partial to the 1968 version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Fills the Air Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 (edited) I watched a the film 'Another Earth' last night. I was worried that it was going to prententious nonsense like 'The Tree of Life', but it was a really interesting and thought provoking flim about redemption.

Strider Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Looking forward to go and see Django Unchained soon...oh and The Hobbit! =) Ditto! Definitely seeing "Django Unchained" opening day 12-26! Tonight, though, I'm out with some friends going to see two classic Charlie Chaplin movies at the Egyptian. http://www.americancinemathequecalendar.com/content/modern-times-city-lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie29 Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 (edited) I'm off to see The Hobbit on Wednesday, Boxing Day with free tickets I received from the cinema as compensation for their shabby presentation of Celebration Day. The big movies have always been released in Oz the day after Christmas, for so long now it's become tradition. After a hectic Christmas Dinner, sleep in, take a swim and watch the starts of the Cricket at the MCG and Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race, then off to the movies. It's always good to chill out the next day, especially on a hot Summer's day in an air conditioned cinema. No, I'll go large popcorn please....

jb126 Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Finally saw "Lincoln". As mentioned above, some very strong performances. Without going into detail, the closing of the film was well done. Want to see "Dark Zero Thirty" and the Tarantino film looks interesting.

Jb126, There wasn't a lot of options on cable for some reason, so 'Wonderful Life' is a good go to. I hope we don't lose power! The winds are supposed to pick up..

Strider Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 (edited) I have just spent three consecutive evenings watching classic movies at the Cinematheque: Thursday 12-27: "An American in Paris" and "Gigi". Gene Kelly and Leslie Caron...and the scene-stealing Oscar Levant. Friday 12-28: "Lawrence of Arabia" in 70mm. This was a brand new print to celebrate the 50th anniversary of its opening in 1962. The kind of epic that seems impossible to make today. My god, Peter O'Toole is so young...and those blue eyes burn the screen as intensely as the Arabian sun. Saturday 12-29: "It Happened One Night" and "Holiday". Both of these films are in my list of top 10 or 20 comedies of all-time. The trouble with most romantic comedies today is that the purported leads rarely have the chemistry exhibited by Clarke Gable and Claudette Colbert in the first film, and Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn in the second.

redrum Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Just watched 'Saturday Night, Sunday Morning' (1960) with Albert Finney. Also, 'Soldier In The Rain' with Steve McQueen and Jackie Gleason. Great bar room brawl when they kicked the shit out of the two MP assholes. :^) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
