I let the old thread drop.
I'm sick of it infecting this forum.

Christ, I don't know whether to think this movie is sheer genius social commentary or the most stupid thing I've ever seen.
Escaped convict convinces an entire Irish town he's a space alien.
Eats their food, drinks their liquor and screws their women and they love him for it.
Damn, Avert won the other thread. Fuck you, macker!
Dragon Hunters (Chasseurs de dragons) - Great, if mega-superficial children's movie. Should have seen it at the cinema, the artwork is often pretty stunning. 6.8/10
Mary and Max - It's so indie it hurts. All the bases of alienation, abuse, doomed romance and death are covered. Still very good and touching. 8.1/10
I heared it sucked. Well, it's Ayn Rand.
Her stupid ass theses are sneered at, at the craddle of philosophy...and accordingly didn't make it far outside the united states.
yanks....take filth out a cheesy novelette and hook it up with the predicate: "philosophy". Finally something of their own, they can slightly understand...^^
Yeah, it wasn't fantastic, but still nice to watch. Very Lynch-like at times.
I'm hoping he will at some point dare to make a movie with a deeply satisfying plotline. 6.3/10
I watched this flick late last night. HAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!! It's not another so-so to awful SNL skit-flick. There are an abundance of chuckles, snickers and, best of all, quite a few belly-laughs. Melissa McCarthy had me howling at times. She wasn't the only one, either.
Quite the unexpected surprise. I give it 3.95 outta 4.00 movie Freds. Here's as link.
" Future years will never know the seething hell and the black infernal background of countless minor scenes and interiors, (not the official surface courteousness of the Generals, not the few great battles) of the Secession war; and it is best they should not�the real war will never get in the books." ~ Walt Whitman
I got about 30 minutes into it. I think the scene that does it for me is the one where Murray's character meets the girl. She's all mopey and shit and mentions she had just graduated from Yale two years earlier and he's all pouting about his work and how they paid him 2 mill to come shoot commercials. Then it occurs to me that anyone with a degree from Yale, or someone making 2 mill for just getting their picture taken doesn't have a reason to bitch about their life and how it's not what they thought it would be. Overpriveleged whiny bastards. At that point I just quit giving a fuck and turn it off.
