Snowpiercer.
A long and elaborate movie along the likes of Terry Gillian’s Brazil. The premise is: a revolution occurs onboard a class-divided train-of-survival which circles the earth during an ice-age.
With a setting this random on a course so fixed, you know the plot is going to deviate from normal films.
This is the best musical I’ve seen since Repo! The Genetic Opera: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1D8HxerLOYA
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, it was pretty good.
That sounds cool, hope it gets a wider release at some point.
Watched Troll Hunter. Never really been a fan of monster movies but trolls are interesting enough and underused so much that it was a pretty good watch. I also like found footage movies. The ending was pretty abrupt, but I suppose that’s the nature of found footage movies. The effects were pretty good for what I assume was a pretty low budget movie.
Good Burger. I somehow missed seeing this when I was a kid, which is weird because I loved Kenan and Kel and All That. Anyway, I lol’d.
Watched Re-Animator and Bride of Re-Animator over the last few days. Pretty good if B-movie tier. Planning on watching Beyond Re-Animator at some point. There need to be more Lovecraft inspired movies.
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes
God damn what a great movie. Honestly one of my favorite movies now. I give it a 9/10.
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. It was really good. I feel like it could have done a little better delivering its messages, it teases but passes up a really interesting opportunity at explaining the ape culture and beliefs, and at the end it basically devolved into an action movie, which I felt was gratuitous and over the top for a movie like this, but otherwise it was very good. 8.5/10.
G.I. Joe: Retaliation. It was a decent action flick but for the life of me I cannot figure out why Cobra Commander would [color=’#191919’]have the disarm button blow up the satellites. Why not just have it NOT drop the rods they were about to drop, that way if all the world leaders HAD gone along with his plan, he’d still have his WMD satellites in orbit in case anyone tried anything? Just seems really out of character for and evil genius like CC to voluntarily disarm himself like that. Anyway, whatever, all that really matters is the Rock beats up bad guys and people shoot guns and stuff explodes and there’s ninja swordfights and Lady Jaye is hot. 7/10.
^ What I don’t get about that movie is why they blew up London. I’m pretty sure there’s rules against destroying landmarks if you aren’t an end-of-the-world movie.
Yeah that did kind of seem out of place. Action movies are usually high on body counts and property damage, but they usually don’t go for actually letting a city get nuked/tungsten-rodded. Like that was the whole plot of MI:4 - don’t let the nuke go off or we’ve lost!
Still haven’t seen Ghost Protocol…
It’s really good. If you liked MI: 3 then you should like MI:4 even more. Aside from a few of the usual little Hollywood misunderstandings about computers and stuff its great, got a lot of action, humor, cool setpieces, and good acting. It’s still on Netflix last I saw.
Yeah, watch Ghost Protocol. It’s one of the better blockbuster films I’ve seen in many years.
I still don’t have Netflix.
And I never saw the whole thing of 3 either. Saw most of it on commercial TV, but you know how commercial breaks are to human males and how we enjoy changing the channel at the first opportunity.
You sadist…!
I saw The Signal the other day. I enjoyed it, though i cannot decide on what to think about the ending. I was surprised by it, though I don’t really know if i should’ve been. The whole film is pretty mysterious and the film dares to give you an explanation to the mystery, and I think the end couldn’t have worked without one (other films work pretty well without one). I am just not sure if should find the ending clever or not.
Apart from that you can see it’s a graduation film (at least I think I read it was). The general theme and pacing is just not the one of a blockbuster, which I found pleasant. But it has some really impressive visuals and you wouldn’t guess it was a 4million dollar film. I say anyone who’d be caught on by the trailer and who is into sic-fi mystery should definitely check it out!
Guardians of the Galaxy. It. Was. Amazing!!! Hilarious, awesome, and surprisingly touching at moments. 10/10. This movie is the one to beat for my favorite movie of the year. In fact I think it’s probably my favorite Marvel film of all time so far.
Hercules. It was… okay.
Going to see Guardians of the Galaxy tonight. Looking forward to it 
EDIT: hahaha
Going to see Guardians tomorrow with the nephews. Can’t fucking wait to get home tonight…
Gonna have to see that movie.
