It's only for banjo, usual suspects is still great

Hmm doesn't sound good o_O Going to see Drag Me To Hell tomorrow, won't be happy if it disappoints... I was seriously looking forward to it after the write up in Empire, and various other publications. It seems to be getting a lot of good reviews for it to have missed the mark too much.

Dead Poets Society - 9/10

Thoroughly enjoyed

Almost Famous - I love this film. First time I've watched the "Untitled: Bootleg Cut". It's great. Kate Hudson . Zooey Deschanel . Anna Paquin . Jason Lee .

9.5/10

Almost Famous is one of my favourites. It's a well written piece of work, and I always annoy another people to watch it as soon as possible. It's bloody great.

Watch it if you haven't yet!!!

Same here, I probably won't get to see it till Tuesday though

Go in expected a very average movie with average acting, no real scares, very ropey SFX and very shitty plot that at times takes itself far too seriously & you should be get some enjoyment out of the movie.

Jesus! By that it's probably better off going to see a different film altogether!!!

I know that makes it sound terrible, but the movie does have some genuinely funny scenes...the rest might be shite, but it's worth watching just for those scenes.

The car scene, graveyard scene & goat scene are probably the funniest of the bunch. (just thinking about the goat scene has set me off. )

Just got back from seeing Drag Me to Hell and I absolutely loved it! The atmosphere in the cinema was fantastic; it was genuinely hilarious and very gross! It's been a hell of a long time since I've seen a film that's been able to meld horror and comedy in such an effective way. Thoroughly enjoyed it, and on this form I can't wait to see what Raimi will throw at Campbell, after what poor Lohman had to put up with. 8/10.

Eh? There were some very funny scenes, but genuinely hilarious & very gross.

Ridiculous.

And meld comedy & horror in such an effective way? Sure they didn't add some hallucinogens to your popcorn/drink.

I kid, it's your opinion and I'm very pleased you thoroughly enjoyed it...even though I thought it was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. (although that has a lot to do with what I think of Raimi's past work, which compared to this PoS are cinematic masterpieces)

Clerks II - ****
Still love it.

Picked up Diary of the Dead for £8 on Blu Ray, along with The Shining and 28 days later on Blu Ray for £20.

Watching Diary now.

Unlucky.

Im a sucker for zombie/end of the world movies. So far its not bad, the cast are a bit crap but its never about them is it.

Rec - 8/10

It's very good, looses a mark for shakey cam (it's there for a reason I know but it's still annoying) and for the boring middle section. Beginning, middle and end with padding to make it a bit longer (still only 90 minutes).

The Incredible Hulk - 7/10

I thought it's a bit better than the first one and it's a decent film with some good actions, but it's nothing like Iron Man though.

I've already made a thread about it so I'll keep this brief but add another "I loved it" for Drag Me To Hell.

It IS a lot like Raimi's earlier stuff, particularly Evil Dead 2 and as a massive fan of that I loved this. It's the same mix of black comedy/cheesy gore and there's some nice little nods to Evil Dead for the fans.



It's funny, cheesily gory and in places, a little grim but in all the right ways. I don't know how Sarge and I can have such different opinions but horses for courses I guess but I went in with high hopes and it exceeded all of them.

One of Sarge's comments I really don't get though is that it needed more gore..

Embarrassingly to say, is Blade Runner: The Director Cut worth it to watch?

If yes, it's on Sky tonight so I thought I might as well watch it while I can.
