Whiplash 8/10

I enjoyed this one :-)

 

Yeah, loved that one. Was one of the best movies I've seen in years. Same with 'The Grey' (mentioned above).

[juiceciuj]

the grey really kind of drags at the end but the first 1/3-1/2 of the movie are excellent.

[olo]

So they're remaking Scarface eh?, That should be good.

 

I never really cared for the 83' version, but still...hololywood.

[sunshine recorder]

who,s got the balls to try and do justice to playing the part of tony montana? any ideas?

[olo]

Kevin Hart.

Are they remaking the remake or the original?

The 83' version. Supposedly, I hope you're sitting down,.....set in LA.

The 80s Scarface is terrible, they'd have to try pretty hard to make it worse. The original one was great though.

I'm with you. Never liked it. Hated the score, cinematography, and most everything else. But, with that being said, it's considered by many to be a classic & there's no point in re-making it.

[caze]

true

[data]

hated the score for scarface? how is that even possible? i mean ..what? how? why?

pretty easy when you're not a fan of moroder.

 

his production for other folks is better than his own stuff imo.

The '83 Scarface is some of the best cheese that has ever cheesed

The Resurrected/Shatterbrain 8/10

[hoggy]

Princess Kaguya (Ghibli) 100/10

unbroken - a movie adaptation of your mom's facebook feed of motivational/inspirational posters.

interstellar

 

I thought it was cool. obvious cheesy love story stuff aside. the space visuals were gorgeous. I think it could have been a little shorter. also, why was machonnay the only one with an accent on his farm?

 

the tidal wave planet. how was there waves hundreds of feet high in less than knee deep water like that?

 

 

I do want to watch it again though. I'm having trouble with the paradox loop though.

[fenton]

because after a tidal wave the ocean is drained out so the cycle would be either tidal wave or no / little water innit?

[cruising for burgers]

because they were close to a giant blackhole???

[jules]

both feasable answers. that didn't bother me anywhere near as much as maconuhay accent

[roasty]

Allegedly the audio engineers have to frequently de-ess the 'S' whistle in anything McConaughey appears in

 

[Danny O Flannagin]

The Imposter 9/10. Interesting documentary about a guy taken in by a family after pretending to be their missing child. Explores how people choose what they want to believe and give themselves tunnel vision by not looking at the entire picture.

 

 

Later on in the film, we are shown a news story in which the imposter is in his jail cell and it has a phone in it. Why would they give him a phone in his cell?

Backcountry 8/10

Finally saw Mulholland Drive, what a trip. Loved it.

Also, American Sniper (= a remake of Team America directed by Leni Riefenstahl iirc?)/10
