Func_Msgboard: Film Thread.

I thought a trio of themed threads about other entertainment media might be good. If you're not interested, please just ignore the thread and pick some threads that interest you from here: http://celephais.net/board/view_all_threads.php

Anyway, discuss films...

Well that movie had a good effect the first time I saw it, but it gets dull after that. The sequel is really wank.

Source Code

Huh, I liked it and of course being squeamish and hopelessly cheesy I liked the ending. :-)

Fairly shallow but deep in a different way.

Soundtrack sucked donkey balls on CoD maps in spaaaace. Seriously, I have that style up to "upper edge of the lower lip"! FFS!

I also watched some really perverted juvenile german fan dubs of the Harry Potter movies which I can highly recommend to any germans with a perverted juvenile mind. http://www.coldmirror-synchros.de/

I watched the Porno-Keller one first and thought it was the best too.

LOL du hast Pimmel gesagt. ^_o

Source Code is pretty good. Another 2011 (half) sci-fi with great pacing is The Adjustment Bureau.

The Adjustment Bureau

I liked it a lot! Forgot what the summary of it was so I was really surprised at what happened. Feel good movie.

Yes Yes.

Been saying this for a while that the amount of intelligent / quirky / cool sci-fi-esque films in recent years is really good. Source Code is definitely a favourite. Adjustment Bureau is the soppy chick-flick of the bunch but still very cool.

#5052 posted by erc on 2013/04/20 19:31:59

I'm glad you liked it. Of course, it's a bit on the romantic side as Shambler has pointed out but still, it interprets its source material (a short story by P. K. Dick) pretty good. I've never liked Matt Damon much, though he and Emily Blunt perform well as a couple in this context.

I'd recommend Looper too. It's from the last year.

Adjustment Bureau > Source Code

At Least Source Code Had Its Humorous Moments

#5055 posted by Tronyn on 2013/04/21 02:16:36

I found Adjustment Bureau surprisingly not-dark and kinda New-Agey given its source.

Looper was better than both of them, in my view, despite the crazy plot holes. Timecrimes and Triangle both handled time travel, its contradictions and horrifying scenarios, better, though Looper's weak-PK powers scenario was awesome and the writing on the arm thing was pretty clever.

Still

Source Code used one of the things I hate the most in movies, that I have hated since I saw it in a certain M Night asshole movie: the protagonist is in a really confusing world and the reason why it's all confusing is that the protagonist IS ALREADY DEAD AND JUST CAN'T ACCEPT THAT. Yeah, pointlessly confuse the viewer for 80 minutes only to toss in this "clever" twist in at the end. So maybe Adjustment Bureau was the better of the two just because I hate that "plot" even more than the New Agey stuff.

Source Code

#5057 posted by nitin on 2013/04/21 04:03:12

had it ended two min before it actually did, I would have liked it more. The last 2 min does cause serious problems with everything that went before.

Also Adjustment Bureau had some serious chemistry between the leads, also better than in SC.

Looper is better than both but not sure its Spirit's kind of movie.

Spirit What Is Your Favourite Movie Ever?

#5058 posted by Drew on 2013/04/21 05:01:17

or like, some top movies

I Agree With All Of That

#5059 posted by Tronyn on 2013/04/21 05:03:48

Source Code would have been way better if it didn't have that last two minutes added on - damn Hollywood's insistence on a happy ending, even in the wildest most physics-bending science fiction, as if the laws of physics care about human desires! Plus that first ending scene looked really cool.

no idea, but Das Boot and Crna macka, beli macor would be random recommendations for people who ask.

I loved looper!

damn it, when is springbreakers released...

Emily Blunt.

Phwoar. Coach/phone/coffee scene is too sexy.

Looper > Source Code > Adjustment Bureau

...but then again we're talking about a scale from brilliant to really good :)

+1 For Ms. Blunt

Meh

#5063 posted by bal on 2013/04/21 11:44:52

I prefered Triangle and Timecrimes to either Looper and Source Code, have to watch Adjustment Bureau.
Still Primer beats all of these when it comes to pure time travel stuff.

Oblivion

First 30mins are ok, then it turns into a complete turdfest. Second half is so disjointed it felt like they just randomly cut scenes from it. Also has massive plot holes even if you suspend your disbelief as much as necessary for a flick like this.

I suggest you shift your attention to wild life documentaries.

The Drones Are Cool Though, No?

#5066 posted by RickyT33 on 2013/04/21 16:53:42

I mean comon. It's got Tom Cruise on the lead role. What did you expect? Not a cheese-fest?
