Need a Robocop vs Terminator movie :P
Would I hate watch that? Yes but only if Arnold was involved.
GORE MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE :wacko:Quote:

I don't hate it as much as most people do, but it's got some pretty terrible parts in it.
Have you seen the reboot yet? I'm staying away from it....
After Dredd and that Arnold movie I'm forgetting I really want no part of it.
Mulan I love the hell outta this movie, one of Disney's best, it never gets old
The Wind Rises dubbed, Werner Herzog dubbing the German guy basically made the dub worth it, so I'm very glad I watched the dub. The film was very enjoyable overall, it felt a little bit different from standard Ghibli films.
Godzilla Movie marathon on Chiller! (Currently: Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack!)
Will skip some of the movies I already watched and wait for Tokyo SOS!
The Hobbit
The Amazing Spider-Man
First time seeing both, enjoyed them both. Andrew Garfield makes a much better Spider-Man IMO.
Robocop.
Jack Ryan Shadow Recruit.
:bored:
Edit:
Tokarev.
Edit 2:
The Machine (2013).
I was expecting this to be really B grade but it wasn't that bad. If you like Terminator movies and/or GITS then give it a look.
I'm assuming you are speaking of the new Robocop. Total abomination - something that didn't deserve the film it was recorded on.Quote:

Yeah, the 2014 Robocop remake :yawn:Quote:

Just re-watched Die Hard: With a Vengeance.
Wonderful movie. I think it's on par with the first Die Hard. I miss the more natural action films, that didn't rely on special filters, shaky cams and CGI.
Shame Die Hard 4/5 happened, though....

Really good movie. Time travel stories tend to go wrong very quickly but this one did a very good job. I won't spoil it for anyone by giving my opinions on things yet, and wait til a few more people have seen it. 5/5 movie for me.
The movie did stop about 10 minutes in because of a power cut, but we got free tickets out of it so I'm pondering what to see next :)
Going next Tuesday :drool:Quote:

DUDE Magneto x Charles Xavier were DTF
X-men: Days of Future Past.
2 thumbs, 2 big toes and a penis up.
5/5
Edge of Tomorrow.
:facepalm:
Donnie Darko [Director's Cut]. I haven't seen it in years. About a third of the way through. Still as great as I remember it being.
Snowpiercer.
Definitely not a good movie but certainly a little odd.
X-Men Days of Future Past.
Awesome movie! It fixed everything that was wrong in the previous movies, especially the 3rd one. Very little to do with the original Claremont's arc but still great and a can't miss for mutant fans. Loved all the cameos from previous casts :nod:

Fantastic stoner comedy that has pretty much everyone from the Judd Apatow movies and Pineapple Express, and they're all playing themselves in the movie. It's pretty damn funny.
The Guyver
It had been years since I last saw this movie, so I decided to give it another try... and I don't remember all of the comic relief. Nor do I remember that Mark Hamill was in it. Or that the love interest was a horrible actress. Plus, having read most of the source manga, a lot of things were so horribly different and wrong that it was shocking. But despite all of that, I really enjoyed the movie... when I wasn't groaning at the comic relief. This is a great practical effects film filled with glorious monster suits, a still pretty great Guyver I outfit and the kind of lame fight choreography that I love in a film that has a guy in a robot suit fighting guys in monster suits.
Totally worth watching.
Godzilla. Definitely better than the last attempt, but still American so I can't honestly say it's an excellent piece of work.
I'm pretty much down for Jump Street 22, it's probably going to be a pretty fun move.
Also we are currently watching all the X-men movies...oh god. "JEAN!!!! JEEEEEAAANN!!!!" So bad, just so bad. :lmao:
3rd movie was a travesty.Quote:

Italian Job. The remake.
All around fun flick - great cast :top:
3.5/5
Watched a few movies in the last few weeks:
We're the Millers (2013) - * 1/2 - Pretty terrible movie. The only redeeming factor is Jennifer Aniston during her stripper segments. You Waifu lovers won't be interested in it though. :wacko:
Darjeeling Limited (2007) - *** 1/2 - Great movie.... ashamed I missed it when it was released. If you like Wes Anderson movies you'll love this.
Grand Budapest Hotel (2013) - **** - Same as the above - Wes Anderson at his finest, outside of Rushmore IMO. Fantastic quirky comedy.
Robin Hood Prince of Thieves (1992) - *** - Hadn't seen this movie in probably 15 years or more... still holds its entertainment value, and also contained a large dash of nostalgia.
Stoker (2013) - *** 1/2 - Amazing movie by the director of Old Boy - this is his first English movie. I pretty much like everything he's done, and this is no exception. Very twisted movie.
Prometheus (2012) - *** - Originally I gave this movie a 4 star rating, but now that I've seen it a few times there are some pretty glaring flaws in it. I still really enjoy the movie since hardcore sci-fi is a category that we really don't get these days, so it gets points for fantastic set design and special effects, but the overall arch of the movie is fairly wank. Still, it's obviously better than anything you'll see on the sy-fy channel or any lousy B grade flick.
Hangover 3 (2013) - ** - Uh yeah..... it was definitely better than Hangover 2 (since that was a reskinned version of the original, only taking place in Bangkok), but it was pretty flat for a comedy. It had a few funny parts early on, but once the movie got going the laughs really slowed up and it was more of a "groan fest" with tired jokes and innuendo.
This is 40 (2013) - *** - Surprisingly funny comedy about life when hitting the middle age mark, and it has really endearing actors. If you've seen other Judd Apatow movies, you know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised by this movie and on more than a few occasions it made me crack up. Old farts like Sprung and Legion will enjoy this :wacko:
Ted (2012) - * 1/2 - The first time I saw this movie I got a good chuckle out of it just because it was so absurd, and the dancing scene with Giovanni Ribisi was probably worth the price of admission, but after seeing it again this movie is pretty fucking terrible. Yeah, Mila Kunis is hot, and Marky Mark is always funny because he plays a great asshole and a fantastic jackass, but the movie is just an overlong R Rated Family Guy episode and has no real staying power.
After Hours - Suprisingly good film, I like Martin Scorcese and I really enjoyed this film.
The Perks of being a Wallflower - More serious than I expected it to be. it's basically a giant PSA for abuse victims to talk about it.
The 400 Blows - I feel like a massive idiot but I didn't enjoy this film as much as I thought I would have, maybe because I feel asleep halfway through and watched the remaining section the following morning.
Bicycle Thieves - It was on my "I should watch this" list for a few months now and I have to admit to admit this film was very good, I can't really fault it all.
I'm impressed to hear Park Chan-Wook directed an English film, I'll add that to my list. :wacko:
Space Pirate Captain Harlock (2013).
Space Battleship Yamato (2010).
Yamato (2005).
Europa Report (2013).
Recently watched [REC]. don't know about it? Zombies, Foreign, Gruesome, Splendid horror film.
The Guyver 2: Dark Hero
Solid Snake in a robot suit fighting guys in monster suits. What's not to like? Though being a fan of the manga, it still bugs me how little of the suits powers are being used. But then, I guess it would cost lots of money which the movie obviously didn't have.
Zatoichi: Darkness is his Ally (1989)
The last chapter in the epic samurai-drama saga I grew up with.. Took forever to find it subbed. Almost kind of sad, last time seeing Shintaro Katsu as Ichi.. Although I recently read there was a spinoff by Toho which doesn't look that bad and I really digged Beat Takeshi's 2003 work with Zatoichi too.
That movie pretty much sucked, comparing it to all the other Zatoichi movies... Sure, the last 15 minutes were awesome when he wrecked like 50 people, but the magic of the old films was lost.Quote:

EDIT: Why did you have trouble finding it subtitled? I remember renting the DVD back in 2004 or so at the local Blockbuster and it was subbed and dubbed.
At the time of its original distribution, I was coming up on two years old, and I've actually never seen VHS nor DVD of Zatoichi (1989) in the part of east Ukraine I grew up in. Although a few of the other 26 films had VHS copies here and there (mostly in Kharkiv, still never watched 15 or 8 entirely) but I've recently relocated so I'm still catching up with a lot of films and releases that I might have missed due to region issues. So a mixture of that and having no time to actually look for physical copies of it is why.Quote:
