Eivion Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 I saw an article earlier about longest Hollywood marriages. Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick caught me off guard since they apparently married on my birthday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Page Eight was a rather good movie. The story wasn't anything special, but I enjoyed the understated approach. No action, no sensationalism, no unnecessary romance. Just solid dialogue, good cinematography and excellent acting. The meeting with Michael Gambon and Bill Nighy near the start of the movie was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Hate on the new Magnificent Seven if you will but Antoine Fuqua did not forget to give Akira Kurosawa a writing credit. The problem with that being that this new reboot clearly knows who the good guys and bad guys are... which completely misses the point of Seven Samurai and the original Magnificent Seven. But you came to see bullets and bodies and this thing has plenty of both. It is a perfectly acceptable clusterfucked afternoon at the movies.

Curt McGirt Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 The Nice Guys was incredibly funny. Dunno if it really needs a sequel like Shane Black wants but that could be interesting, at least. If not I can see it being the new Big Lebowski for the millenials. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'd rather get a sequel to Kiss Kiss Bang Bang than The Nice Guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even the metrosexualness and horrible acting of Mitch Gaylord or the worst song ever with Andy Taylor on lead vocals could keep Janet Jones from being hotter than the surface of the sun. My name is JT. I am an idiot and I paid regular theater ticket prices to go and see American Anthem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoyed it but man was Gosling trying too hard to be funny in his role. Sometimes it paid off (the screaming like a girl) sometimes it was pointlessly distracting (the toilet door). I'd defo watch a sequel though, him and Crowe had great chemistry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Yeah, he could have dialed it down a little, but you have to take in mind he was supposed to be the Clouseau to Crowe's dumpy, violent straight man so he kind of had to go over the top. Why have I still never seen Kiss Kiss Bang Bang? And for that matter why have I never even heard of this (obviously awful) film? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 That movie was really really really bad and it had a monumentally horrible theme song that showed without a doubt why Andy Taylor's vocals were never showcased on Duran Duran or Power Station tracks, but wow Janet Jones was smoking hot. She was so distracting that it never dawned on me until years later that her socks never got dirty in any of the scenes where she was training in the gym.

(BP) Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 As far as gymnasts completely out of their depth acting in a motion picture, it's no Gymkata. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Gymkata is so wretched that it is phenomenal and it has mother fucking ninjas in it while American Anthem is just plain bad, but is rescued by Janet Jones being a walking fever dream and a scene where Mitch Gaylord flies off of a Horizontal Bar and nearly cripples himself. Holy crap. Take It Easy may be the most vile thing ever attributed to a member of Duran Duran. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Did she go back to the past and murder her parents in that picture? Also, this movie is 30 years old this year, and yes, I rented it and watched it on VHS, and I'm just now learning that there was a guy in it.

Curt McGirt Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 High-Rise was completely insane. It's also really pretentious and showed its hand in the very first segment of the film, but the rest was some pretty inspired madness, even if it didn't all coalesce perfectly. Some of it actually came a little too close for comfort, given my social experiences and the state of the States right now. At the same time it still didn't have the gravitas it wanted to have. Flawed but fun and bizarre film. Has anyone read the book in full? I tried to get through it when I was in college because I really loved Crash (the movie) but it was so dark and I quit it about a quarter way through.

RIPPA Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 I am not starting an Oscar thread already but if anyone is curious All the films submitted by countries for Best Foreign Film "The submitted motion pictures must be first released theatrically in their respective countries between 1 October 2015 and 30 September 2016." And the deadline to submit is Monday Paul Verhoeven having a movie submitted is weird to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
