Title: What was the last film you watched? :)
Post by: VanillaBean on February 16, 2012, 09:55:39 AM

& what did you think of it? 
For me it was 'Shadow of a Doubt.' I've been embarking on a huge Hitchcock binge, & this is the last one from my list. 8-)  I loved the atmosphere & the subtle scares, very well written & acted. 'The Birds' is still my favourite film of his though. 
I also watched My Bloody Valentine for a laugh, & found it predictably hammy.   :lol:

True Grit (2010). Took me forever to see this one, and I wish I had watched it sooner. Loved it, and I normally detest westerns.

Flight of the Navigator (Disney) over at mlp4me's house last weekend. She's always got a good movie I haven't seen.

   Um, 'Midnight in Paris' starring Owen Wilson, directed by Woody Allen.....


My thoughts? I am not an intellectual. I might like to pretend from time to time, but I. Am. Not...

In the theatre - V/H/S
At home - Tyrannosaur

Both were decent.

The most recent new one I saw was The Woman in Black. I didn't care for it, though Radcliffe was very good.

The very last movie I watched was the original Scream :) It's been years since I saw it from start to finish. It's still good.

Hubs and I watched 'The Guard' on DVD for Valentines day, and the last film I saw at the cinema was Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy - OMG it was sooo great! Nice to see a decent, subtle, stylish film for a change... and the actors.... awwwww.... John Hurt may you live forever and Tom Hardy... please come to my house for a cup of tea!


I was so sick of waiting for epic movies and being disappointed - Harry Potter 7. part 2 - OMG? Was everyone who rated that on drugs or something? and War Horse? Nice bits in it, but seriously? So seeing Tinker Tailor and being rewarded with a thoughtful, well acted film... very refreshing.

Last movie I watched was Megamind in 3D :P

Finally bought it on Blu-Ray 3D, just to test out my PS3 and TV's 3D capabilities.

Title: Re: What was the last film you watched? :)

Real Steel.  Very highly recommended.

Post by: Dyzarktarzk on February 16, 2012, 09:00:18 PM

Ahm...  If I'm not mistaken, I think the last movie I saw was "Song of the South" (not sure about its real title) of Disney...  like... 6 months ago?

Godzilla: Final Wars.

My friend has been doing a wonderful job, of passing his love for the atomic death breathing reptile to me lately.
I enjoyed the movie immensely, even if it's camp, camp and more camp with matrix style battles between humans, and monster battles portrayed by people in giant rubber suits.
There's something fun about seeing a movie made with actual miniature cities wrecked by a man in a suit.
Cgi may look a lot more realistic, but it's great to see props and monsters so, well, tangible. (Which is probably a odd thing to say for an aspiring 3d artist. >>)

Final Destination 5 on DVD. Loved it and they weren't kidding when they said it was the bloodiest Final Destination yet. Definitely had some twists where I thought I knew what was going to happen but it ended up being somewhere else. Not recommended for anyone not fond of blood or can't look at the same thing again if they see some disaster unfold there or of course watching it while eating.

Post by: starrypawz on February 17, 2012, 06:55:09 AM

Last cinema movie was Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol. First time I've seen a MI film and I found it entertaining enough.
Can't remember the last thing I watched on DVD, I think it was the Last Unicorn as I finally found it on DVD, I loved it!

Aw. I actually liked that movie. Very predictable and obvious but I enjoyed most of it.

I'm looking forward to seeing that, perhaps next Tuesday. I can't imagine it's actually scary though.

My fiance LOVES that movie. It's pretty good. ;D


Last Movie *I* saw was Chronicle (I'm not going to count NetFlix movies). I wanted it to be more, they didn't have to be so cliche. They took some turns I wouldn't have; but I didn't regret paying to see it. I'd like to see Safe House soon as well.

And I agree with him :) It's an awesomely epic movie. I had high expectations for Will Farrell after watching him as The Man in the Yellow Hat in the Curious George film, and he delivers :)

The second reason I wanted this movie in 3D was because I missed the first 10 seconds of the film when I went to watch it in the theater two years ago, in 3D as well. I finally got to see the opening in the same format as the one I watched :P

Some interesting stuff here.  :)
I'm curious about The Woman in Black; the trailer looked very generic to me, but I still wouldn't mind seeing it. It'll be good to see how Radcliffe is outside of a Harry Potter film.  8-)

the last movie i rented was "sucker punch" with emily browning... i did not enjoy. i'm not sure why i even thought i would... :P the last movie i watched in theaters was "the woman in black", and it was alright... i had a panic attack during it so i missed a few parts, but it seemed kind of predictable. :/ this post is super negative so i'm going to add a smiley face now. :)

I really loved it too...until

Spoiler

the poor black horse was ridden to death and shot :sad: I know he did it to
save the girl life but it still upsets me, especially when he stabs the poor thing :shocked: Aside from how inhumane that is, combined with the poor animal was suffering as it is running so hard for so long with 2 people on it's back, it probably resulted in the poor horse not living for as long as he could have :huh:  The horse would of died anyway but still very upsetting and cruel to stab him :cry:

I think the last movie we saw was "One Day" (2011), it was pretty good :) Actually tonight me and my husband are going to see "War Horse" (2011) which is my choice and in a couple of weeks "The Artist"(2011) which is his choice :)

'Don 2' starring Shah Rukh Khan!

I'm into Bollywood, but this was the silliest Action film I'd ever seen. And I haven't seen 'Don 1' either, so that plus the copy my friend gave me to watch didn't have English subtitles on it, meant that I was a bit confused. I do understand some Urdu, and quite a few lines in Indian films are spoken in English anyway, but still confusing. The bank robbery scene took up what would normally constitute the time taken to show a Hollywood film alone!
But at the cinema, the last 2 films I saw were 'Ra One' (Pretty good Bollywood Sci Fi film starring Shah Rukh Khan,  when computer game characters come to life and chase after each other) and the latest in the Twilight Saga, which I only watched since I'd read the books and seen the other films, I was rather self conscious surrounded by teenage girlies ahh-ing at wedding scenes and Robert Pattinson's chest.

The Ugly Truth was on tv last night, so I watched that, really annoys me how they cut parts out, like all the swearing and actually funny bits were just cut! It was so wrong, why cant they show you the full version when its on tv?. But I enjoyed it still as i did the first time I saw it. Gerard Butler is HOT!

I've been wanting to watch Ra.One and the like. A friend of mine on Tumblr is really into SRK and I admit the films look interesting.
