What movies are you watching?

My brother is editing all six Middle-earth movies into one chronological, unbroken movie and I'm pretty excited to see it.

is your brother autistic?

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

oh god, you have a brother?

anyway, i just watched blackhat and thought it was okay

It's not a bad movie. I wasn't around whenever your battle over this flick went down, but I did enjoy it. There were characters and scenes that were hollow, but so what -- I watch Mann for his style, not his depth of character or story.

i know what you mean, but in movies like this style only goes so far for me

i actually like hemsworth, but it seemed like he was struggling with the american accent most of the time...also viola davis just seemed bored the whole time

Man oh man I love Blackhat

Man oh man I love Blackhat

[LoathedVermin72]

Man oh man I love Ruddo

[E.H. Ruddock]

I might watch it again soon, just because I haven't seen a movie with good visual tones like that lately

[lennytheweedwhacker]

i would watch it again in a few years, but i deleted it right after it was over

[bada]

Blackhat the one with Thor? He's like an expert hacker who spends 8 hours a day in the gym?

The Insider is his best movie.

Like hell it is.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

i have heat recorded too...i've seen it before, and while i liked it i felt a bit underwhelmed

for some reason i don't remember much about the insider...i really liked collateral though

[LoathedVermin72]

Blackhat, Heat, Manhunter, and Ali are the cream of the Mann crop.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

i need to see ali

[Rangi Guy]

Blackhat had such diminishing returns the further it went on.

I'd say The Insider, Heat, Manhunter, Collateral.

Edit: also Last of the Mohicans

Should I watch Thief again? I think I might like it more this time.

you have to watch it before you hit 1000 posts...board rule

[RussellManiac12]

I liked Prometheus. *shrugs*

It's certainly not a great movie but I've never understood the hate. It was fun and mysterious and I enjoyed it.

Hated it when I saw it in the theater - liked it a lot better the second time I watched it on Blu Ray a couple of weeks ago. Wasn't going to ever watch it again, but was introducing my girlfriend to the Alien franchise and thought what the hell. Glad I did.

I really need to see more Spike Lee films.

do the right thing
