Recently Watched Movies

I hope in all honesty that it just doesn't flop like a few of the more recent incarnations of comic book heroes...
Because that will just wreck years of hard work making this awesome lead up to the worst movie of them all lol.
Maybe they can get the Crime Syndicate Of America! hahaahhahaha... now that would be a hilarious movie!! =D

Is it really a spoiler if it's the sort of thing you'd find on the back of the box?

I think now. Because, hey, it's basic plot point.

Also it's the second scene of the film, it's not the ending. :wacko:

The Avengers have their own good villains like Kang/Immortus, Loki, Ultron or even Zemo and the Masters of Evil to need Galactus or Thanos which aren't Avengers villains..

I mean why don't these guys really up the ante and have someone big as a villain like Thanos or something. Another half-assed comicbook movie :rolleyes:

Thanos? That's perfect if you don't want sequels to be made, it's hard to believe Cap surviving to such a menace on his own :P

I watched Green Lantern tonight, the opening night in Australia, and it was... alright.

Here's my own little review on it...

Spoiler warning:

I personally, was very skeptical of Ryan Reynolds playing the role of the Green Lantern, and even after seeing it, there were parts I cringed and felt uncomfortable and not just over his poor acting abilities. Overall the movie was well done graphics wise, and i'm sure it would make a good wholesome family comedy. But it's supposed to be a hero movie... Not the steaming pile of comedic shit that Ryan Reynolds brought to the role. He's a comedian, and he's stepped out of his league with this one.

The final battle.. was a disappointment. Paralax died in what felt like a 30 second battle and didn't really put up much of a fight and Hal Jordan's transition from afraid human to awesome fearless Green Lantern was pitiful to say the least, in fact it was summed up in an overly cheesy scene where Blake Lively says some really not so deep crap about courage and he's ready to be a hero again.
Sinestro's role in the summoning of Paralax was completely wrong, and Blake Lively's mannequin like acting made it all feel... So, like a badly written Top Gun reincarnation I could've done it better with hand puppets. In fact in the dog fight skirmish at the start of the movie, I could've sworn I walked into the wrong cinema...

But in saying this there was a lot of great moments, in it as well, with Hal's training sessions on Oa and his first experience's with the ring and him saying the famous Green Lantern oath(bad facial expressions in this scene)... But I think really I mostly loved the movie because I am a long time fan of Green Lantern and the little kid inside me exploded with joy that they made an incarnation of it.

If I had to give it a rating, the rating would be 2 and a half out of 5 stars. It was mediocre and the way I see it, movie studios are just going more downhill with every comic/movie crossover they come up with... I really hope that the Avengers doesn't disappoint as much as this one did...

Sorry buddy, I actually didn't know how to use Spoiler tags but I shall keep that in mind for future reference... I apologize.
In fact I used some above... to make up for my earlier failure >.<

I wasn't saying Thanos specifically for Captain America just in general. Cap wouldn't stand a chance. I'm just sick of seeing predictable first movie villains. But you mentioned masters of evil which will most likely be the villains for an avengers movie, if they have Loki and of course we saw what seemed to be the beginning of the leader in the last hulk movie.

Thanos is everyones villain. Just reading all his books again and that's what came to mind.

Until gambit charges up a pie and hits rogue in the face with it, make mine...... er wait...

I last watched National Lampoon's Vacation. :D Such a funny movie. :D

I watched the new Pirates of the Caribbean, it didn't totally suck, but it was pretty eh.

o_O

The whole movie was Blackness and breathing. Both things are common of sleep.
I did like the part where Hal launched the dude across the screen though. :wacko:

I think you would be proud though, that I finished both Seasons 1 and 2 of Star Trek the original series. Started 3 but had to come back down to school...

Mr Roark is Kahn! xDxDxD

:lol

I really tried to watch all of the original series. But, growing up on TNG, I just really couldn't muster all the imagination required for special effects from that era. Too campy for me :P

So you and Shatner are not the same age? :o

Back to the future 3

Defendor - Woody Harrelson plays a mentally retarded man who becomes a superhero. Enjoyable.
It's Kind of a Funny Story - Was presently surprised by Zach Galifianakis.
Captain America - Thought it was kinda lame actually.
The Secret of Kells - Beautifully animated movie out of Scotland. Story kind of fizzles and dies.
Amelie - French movie about an introverted girl who falls in love. Very good, tho my ex looks and acts a lot like the main character.

Hard Target

Saw Fright Night, Colin Farrell plays a pretty good vampire.

Watched Wizards of Waverly Place The Movie with my girlfriend, lol. Not much, "watching the movie" going on though lmfao. xD

Ninja Assassin - Uh, pretty typical of Ninja movies made by Americans... Terrible stereotypical Asian accents. But it was overall a decent film and the choreography was stunning for the fight scenes.

Defendor - Loved it when I first saw it, still love it now. A post above made me wanna watch it again, so I loaded it up tonight, and dang, just as good.

Have you tried any of the new remastered ones? They redid the effects and ships and stuff.


Watched Grosse Pointe Blank and Slums of Beverly Hills.

Catfish.

Well that was....interesting.

Facebook the movie, indeed. :wacko:

I just got back from watching Transformers 3. It was decent to say the least, I'd say it was better than the second one for sure IMO.

If I were the director though, I would have made the Big lipped, always clean, big titted, white chick die. I think that would have made it better, but oh well. >.>

Watched the Conan the Barbarian last night.
