Dredd was pretty tight- well assembled & staged for being so low budget. It felt like the 3rd movie of an occasional series- I enjoyed the lack of exposition or myth building. I liked Urban a bunch...when are he & Statham gonna do an actioner together?

4400 "ending" was soooo annoying. it's a pretty solid C+/B- level show

okay, will not watch. what about supernatural though? worth the time? shit, i already asked that on here. never mind. i'll just watch one.

its bad?

scott seward, Monday, 2 September 2013 20:37 (ten years ago) link

it's like a bro'd out "Angel". it can be funny though, I don't hate it. I mean, it's Dean from Gilmore Girls, he's adorable

i watched Supernatural on occasion - i always dug the look, definitely the best looking horror show on TV for a long time

Nhex, Monday, 2 September 2013 21:03 (ten years ago) link

ian, Tuesday, 3 September 2013 01:20 (ten years ago) link

i worry that i have maybe had my fill of brits behaving badly. there are a lot of them. but i might watch.

series 7 is on netflix! i didn't know that. i feel like that movie gets overlooked when people talk about the reality t.v./horror/dystopia thing. i like that movie way more than hunger games. 2001! a pioneer, kinda. plus, it was filmed in my old home spot in connecticut. so i get to look for stuff i recognize in it.

scott seward, Tuesday, 3 September 2013 01:32 (ten years ago) link

i love that will arnett is in it

Nhex, Tuesday, 3 September 2013 02:50 (ten years ago) link

holy shit is he? i haven't seen it since 01, it's been sitting in my queue for forever like so many other things

balls, Tuesday, 3 September 2013 02:51 (ten years ago) link

very very very small hidden role as the narrator

Nhex, Tuesday, 3 September 2013 03:00 (ten years ago) link

scott, saxondale is fuckin' great; do watch that

YOU FOOLS PAY OVER $2.50 for a comic book (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 3 September 2013 03:04 (ten years ago) link

we watched part of some firefighter witness relocation movie with bruce willis and it was megalame and then we switched to a completely bonkers Dutch movie called The Northerners which defies description, but then we settled on a movie called Another Happy Day which was actually pretty good and a step above the Sundance movies. about a fucked up family. ellen barkin and ellen burstyn are good in it. demi moore is evil. lots of fighting. oh and blue crush is the cutter daughter. some pretty crazy scenes. and some laughs too.

scott seward, Tuesday, 3 September 2013 04:47 (ten years ago) link

and the nina simone song that ends the movie is pretty incredible.

scott seward, Tuesday, 3 September 2013 04:48 (ten years ago) link

directed by barry levinson's son. who was dating ellen barkin at the time it was made.

scott seward, Tuesday, 3 September 2013 04:53 (ten years ago) link

plus Dale was in it and he was hilarious:

Nhex I am both envious and terribly sad for you

"The story was just horrible to say the least. camera angles were bad in spots. The only thing I liked about this movie was just seeing hot and sexy shirtless buff guys. The reason why I rated it 2 out of 5 is just because of the shirtless hunks."

Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 4 September 2013 03:18 (ten years ago) link

the woman on cover of that second one looks scared or weary

this is not a good definition of 'best'

space is deep (mh), Wednesday, 4 September 2013 03:36 (ten years ago) link

Scott's stills from the movie are cool though

LANSING, MI—Seeking a sense of bottomless dread about an aspect of ordinary daily life that had heretofore seemed innocuous to him, local resident Michael Strzpek decided to watch any of a thousand documentary films available to stream on netflix.com Thursday evening. “I already feel terrible about American politics, advertising, water, dolphins, fast food, and Walt Disney, so let’s see what other documentaries can make me feel terrible about something it never occurred to me to feel terrible about before,” the 31-year-old claims adjuster told reporters. “I’m just really in the mood to feel like complete and utter shit about something I do, eat, purchase, patronize, or support, and I want the depths of its ugliness revealed to me through a combination of shocking footage, interviews with experts, and sober voice-over narration.” At press time, Strzpek figured this documentary exposing the dangers of wind turbines “should do the trick.”

LOL, was just going to say, the canon DeCoteau will provide all your softcore needs. Provided you like dudes, in particular.

midnight outdoor nude frolic up north goes south (Eric H.), Wednesday, 4 September 2013 13:30 (ten years ago) link

Enjoyed Happy People: A Year on the Taiga. I'm not entirely clear on what was done by Herzog vs the other director (I had originally thought it was shot by the other guy for Russian TV and re-edited/narrated by Herzog, but I'm not sure), but it's definitely more straightforward and earnest than the standard Herzog film. Certainly has a lot of his standard themes. Very visually beautiful and even kind of inspiring.

Dredd was pretty solid! Thanks for the tip. Like a more entertaining version of The Raid (imo) crossed with a Robocop reboot. Appreciate how it justifies all the ramping.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 4 September 2013 16:58 (ten years ago) link

okay if this was as good as the raid, i gotta try it

Fwiw, I didn't like The Raid.

u get the side eye

Dredd made me want to see Trespass again. and every movie where people have to shoot their way out of a building.
