The film thread

they could have used that film as the voight-kampff test, its just all so emotional at the end

why the fuck isn't it october yet?

Today I watched Land of the Dead. I know it's a George Romero film and shouldn't take it seriously, and it did have John Leguizamo in it, but it wasn't very good. Nowhere near as good a zombie film as Fido.

i enjoyed land of the dead, it's a little hamfisted but i thought it was a good'n

New film about some kids fightings aliens directed by Joe Cornish(of the Adam and Joe show) looks ridiculous!! In a good way.

FUCK YOU 3D!!!!! I hate you!!!!!!!!! Aaarrraggghhhhgaahh!!!!!

I watched a film last night called The Repeaters. It's the same premise as Groundhog Day and a low budget movie, but it's well worth a watch.

just saw the trailer, it looks incredibly shit.
like really shit, like covers no ground that groundhog's day doesn't cover but is trying to be edgy.

this is like a gritty reboot of spiderman a year early.

Alright. You don't have to watch it.

I've just watched the movie 'Freaks'. It's actually quite good and more than just a curiosity in itself.

you should watch the repeaters. it's like freaks but edgier, hipsters love it

i really like freaks, my dad videotaped it from the tv for me when i was a kid and said i'd like it.
it's not a film, but i'm going to watch this when i get in tonight.

Recently I watched wag the dog, it was really interesting, it was pretty much exactly the same as in the loop but not as good. i can't imagine feltchy hasn't seen in the loop but if he hasn't he should watch that, if he has, he should watch wag the dog

We watched Kindergarden Cop the other night. It was awesome. We watched Super a week or so ago as well, when it started I was enjoying it, but by the end of the film I really didn't like it. Also watched Tomorrow when the war began, it's one of my favourite books so I was prepared for a terrible film that doesn't do the book justice, but I was pleasantly surprised that it was pretty damn good. Although I don't think that much significant happens as it's based on book one of a series of seven so there's a lot of the whole introducing the characters and what not (there's a group of eight teenagers). Really happy to find out that they are making the second and third books to films as well so hopefully they'll be good too. It's based in Austrailia so it was wierd watching a film where everyone has australian accents! Got flashbacks of watching neighbours...

Fun fact: The film Mad Max was dubbed for release in America because it was thought that they wouldn't be able to understand Australian accents. I was disappointed when my Mad Max box set turned out to have the dubbed version in it.
