What movie did you watch last night? (14 Viewers)

[Ferox13]

James Franco's Child of God. I'm surprised by how much I liked this ...

Is this released on disk or is it in theatres?

It’s already out on DVD in the US so I just torrented it.

 

[Ferox13]

Cheers - may give that a watch.

 

[Kermit McDermott]

A few I had recorded.

Murder by Decree (1979)
The Keep (1983)
Race with the devil (1975)

One thing which puzzled me about Edge of Tomorrow

Spoiler

Why was Brendan Gleeson was so set on sending Tom Cruise into battle? It seemed to suggest that he was willingly sending a man with no combat training to his death just because he was a bit of a prick. A little harsh, douche or not.

Spoiler

wasn't it payback for cruise's character being directly responsible for the recruitment (and inevitable death) of so many others? or something?

yeah but

Spoiler

gleeson is a general in the military. surely he wants to see people sign up and fight the enemy. he sends young men and women to their deaths every day. otherwise he'd be an accountant or something

Spoiler

he lies to cruise about sending him to the front with a camera crew, then lies to the officers by telling them cruise is a deserter. either he's got a personal vendetta or he's a psychopath

I assume these spoilers are about the ending - which Donald Clarke was perplexed about.
I'm seeing it Friday and will clear it all up.
Or add massively to the confusion.

Seeing it with a girl though, so the temptation is to read everything beforehand and try and have a solution for the pub to impress her.

Not gonna do that though.

Watched Marathon man last night. Dustin Hoffman was fucking ripped.

Her choice or yours?

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

nope

ok. cool.

When did the US stop getting movies first?

I hate this.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

Her choice or yours?

Choice of what?

Deconstructing the movie will happen. I would like to have an upper hand.

We both chose it. We both like these films.

I see arthouse/indie films with other friends.

Carnage. A queasy master-class in shouty acting and horrible characters.

Inferno (1980) directed by Dario Argento. It looked great, heavily stylized with loads of OTT red & blue lighting and rich detailed set design. Nice atmosphere, but it didn’t make a whole lot of sense.

Tabloid. Decent, a bit mad alright. Great graphics all the way through, right to the end credits.

 

[therealjohnny]

I watched Dune for the first time in years. It really could use some editing and the constant head shots of someone thinking was very annoying

Some great ideas and visuals though

It'll be years before I watch it again

My memory of that film is that it captures the first 50 pages of the book really well in about 90 mins and then tries to cram the rest of the 500 odd pages into an hour.

Well in fairness my main memory is Sting, but the bit above comes second.
