Uch. My sister just rented Space Balls.
It was funny a few years ago, now... now it's just dumb.
(The real Star Wars owns!)

Oh come on. You're telling me one of the few spoofs of the genre of science fiction isn't excellent? Mel Brooks has such a great sense of humour. "Go work on your putz."

Bunnyman · « **Reply #51 on:** 26 Apr 2006, 01:59 »

It's very uneven. Moments of piercing brilliance punctuating an uncomfortable series of limp gags. After watching, say, Blazing Saddles, it's iffy.

Robocop was a better spoof of Sci-Fi, anyway.

Hahah DVD.

I haven't touched physical media in many moons.

Also, Heat FTW. The massive gunfight that takes place after they rob the bank? Unbelievably awesome.

i just saw trainspotting for the first time and it was fucking awesome. the baby scene creeped me the fuck out.

Just watched Boondock Saints
Recently purchased Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back

What can I say...I like movies that say fuck a lot.

StupidityKills · « **Reply #58 on:** 28 Apr 2006, 11:34 »

I rented The Descent to watch with some friends on Tuesday, and ohmygod it was so fucking scary. And good. When the thing appeared behind them on the video camera, we literally screamed for ages, and I never scream, even at really jumpy films.
It was awesome

Oh and with my postal-rental thingy I got Mysterious Skin, which was good too, but a little bit uncomfortable with Joseph Gordon-Levitt doing some pretty explicit homosexual stuff.

Ghostwriter · « **Reply #59 on:** 29 Apr 2006, 19:30 »

Not very much new stuff. However, I recently saw:

-Edward Scissorhands (hooray!)
-Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (loved it!)
-Jacob's Ladder (creepy, awesome)
-Memento (totally kickass and deliciously thought-provoking)
-Se7en (also good stuff)

Moulin Rouge... I cried.

Advent Children.
I watched Teachers today, too.

Sarcasmorator · « **Reply #67 on:** 30 Apr 2006, 21:11 »

Some episodes from Farscape Season 3. Love this show.

Before that, Alien 3. I actually don't hate this movie, but it represents an opportunity squandered. And the CG sucks. Sucky-suck suck sucks. Suck.

Match Point, and all the Battlestar Galactica (new series) dvds.

Watched: Space Mutiny MST3K episode

Yay! I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one here who watches MST3K. My friend has many of the episodes and we all watch them regularly.

Kai · « **Reply #70 on:** 01 May 2006, 16:29 »

I love MST3K.

Bunnyman · « **Reply #71 on:** 02 May 2006, 02:59 »

Space Mutiny was a fine episode.

Borrowed: Fight Club. I figured that if I was going to rant about this movie, I should probably see more than the last half. Still a self-indulgent hodgepodge of apocrypha, but it hangs together remarkably well (and, I must admit, is pretty damn well made).
Watched: Lots of Arrested Development. Remarkable. Also wins the award for "best use of a Predator clip."

ayePod · « **Reply #72 on:** 04 May 2006, 04:22 »

Borrowed the Eerie,Indiana boxset of my good buddy Sean. That was a good night.

KharBevNor · « **Reply #73 on:** 04 May 2006, 13:02 »

Just watched Bloodsucking Freaks. I laughed my head off. The bit where the woman tries to escape from the packing crate and the crazy dwarf just whacks her over the head is priceless.

B movies always cheer me up so much. Not sure what should be next...I feel like a bit of Troma. Toxic Avenger? Chopper Chicks in Zombie Town? Redneck Zombies? So many choices...

bought Nanny Mcphee recently. It was cute. (Not a common word used by me. Perhaps a better word would be "decent.")

Bunnyman · « **Reply #84 on:** 09 Jun 2006, 00:05 »

That is an awesome avatar.

Bought
WarpVision: 32 brain-fucking music videos from your favorite electronic label. OK, so only about 10 are really remarkable. But still...gotta love Gantz Graf. And all the Chris Cunningham/Aphex Twin collaborations. And, truly, anything by pleix.
Bonnie and Clyde. 'Nuff siad.

Rented
Miller's Crossing: Early Coen Brothers prohibition gangster movie. Twisted bit of noir with their signature devilish sense of humor. Most definitely worth viewing.

LeeZion · « **Reply #85 on:** 09 Jun 2006, 18:51 »

The last one I bought was The Place Promised in Our Early Days.

If you are a serious anime collector, this one DEFINITELY belongs in your collection. It made me break down in tears, and that rarely happens. The only other anime that ever did that was episode 19 of RahXephon. I cry every time I watch it, no matter how many times I've seen it before.

The last one I watched was Haibane Renmei, episodes 1-7. Also a sad, hauntingly beautiful anime story.

Neuvost · « **Reply #86 on:** 11 Jun 2006, 00:02 »

I saw Robin Hood: Men in Tights (that Mel Brooks flick) last night. Funny stuff. I watch too many movies to be able to remember past that though.

Lines · « **Reply #87 on:** 11 Jun 2006, 15:45 »

just rented match point. not bad, especially since both mattew goode and johnathan Rhys Meyers are both beautiful, beautiful men, though it ended completely different than i thought it would.

Ozymandias · « **Reply #88 on:** 11 Jun 2006, 16:27 »

Just rented Batman Begins, Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, and Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker.

I rented Where the Buffalo Roam (A 70's Hunter S. Thompson based movie with Bill Murray as Hunter) and Must Love Dogs (A recent romantic comedy that I rented because I'm currently man crushing on John Cusack.)

Neuvost · « **Reply #90 on:** 12 Jun 2006, 01:15 »

I watched Battle Royale tonight, then watched the first hour of The Machinist. I didn't turn it off because it was bad, but rather because it's four AM and I needed to stop watching fucked-up movies.

Mirrormask

Written by Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean (Creator and cover artist for The Sandman comics), directed by McKean.

It's essentially a family movie so it's not as dark as I thought it was going to be. The story was kind of weak, but it was very visually pleasing (fans of McKean will understand).

Just finished watching Primer, which seemed good, but got incredibly confusing towards the end. I think I have to watch it again. Oh, and just got the NOVA series on Brian Greene's Elegant Universe, but have yet to watch it. The physics nerd in me is very happy tonight.
