Grizzly Man
Capote
Spirited Away

Best in Show, lol. Love that movie. Some of these are questionable tho... Donnie Darko, Sin City...

I don't remember Howls Castle that well but I always thought that was the worst of the Ghibli films I've seen.

You guys have seen lots of movies. I've seen like nine.

 

[edgie]

Is this a general movie discussion or specifically related to a certain decade?

Either way Inglorious Bastards was s**t.

Darko is a horribly horribly over rated load of trash.

The director then went onto make 'the box' which is a horrific mess and 'tales from the Southland' which I rate as the worst film ever made , and I've had to watch 100's of student films ffs.


If ever there was a quintessential body of work to embody the old if you make something so horrendously stupid people will pretend to understand it so they don't look like they don't get it .... it's that guys work.

Granted, but Cimino made purified dog poo after The Deer Hunter. It's still The Deer Hunter.

Besides, it's easily Jake Gyllenhaal's premier work until Three Days After Yesterday.

It's good but not as good as the others. Hated Billy Crystal as the voice of Calcifer.

2000's movies s**t all over 2000's music

Basterds was really fun. Christoph Waltz was incredible. What's your beef?

Howl's Moving Castle was the first Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli movie I saw so I remember it fondly.

I like Donnie Darko but can understand the earlier comment that it's probably over-rated based on Richard Kelly's later movies - he's a Lynch wannabe.

Sin City, like Watchmen, is a guilty pleasure of mine.

On the subject of horribly overrated movies...

I didn't find it fun, I found it like QT got sucked up in to his own a-hole and made a movie about it. All the things people like about his style, dialled up so highly they became unbearable. Waltz was indeed incredible but he couldn't save it. I'd prefer to watch them reunite in Django.

It was too much for me.

Six of which are American Pie and its sequels.

Talking about Australian Westerns at dinner the other night, and I say The Proposal instead of The Proposition... oops.

 

[StuMan]

Re-playing the Resident Evil remake.
One of the few times in any media I can think of that a remake has surpassed the original completely.

Although, the original 1996 game will always have this:

*This must be the NTSC version; the PAL intro vid was less gory (and was black & white).

 

[edgie]

I stumbled upon some amateur cam pr0n doing a Resident Evil role play once.

It was very engrossing, they really got in to character.

 

[raman]

Basterds is superb. The two big suspense scenes (opening + cellar) are among the best of their kind ever done. And Shoshanna's revenge prep to the strains of Bowie's Cat People; simply incredible.

Final line: "this might just be my masterpiece"... damn right!

 

[raman]

Donnie Darko was a definite fluke and hasn't really aged well, but it mostly deserved the fuss.

 

[Steve Dore]

Store manager during job interview:

"Okay, so, we had a bit of problem with hold-ups. We had a few hold-ups. Actually, we got held-up a-lot. Not so many since I started. Just the one. Last week. Anyway, that's why we went to a cashless store. We don't keep any cash in the til. Not a cent. So now they just steal alcohol and cigarettes. And chips."

Might have literally dodged a bullet by not getting that gig...

Yeah, I've vowed never to work in a school tuck shop again.

 

[Contested Marx]

No Country might be the best damn movie of all time if not just 2000's

In contrast,
Missplelld Tranantito Fillum tad overrated but it does have some cracking moments

Guilty pleasures though, Book of Eli (it's not a good film), The Prestige

Also, the Proposal actually not bad

It's great but not that great. A Serious Man was a better Coen film that decade.

 

[Steve Dore]

Lars and the Real Girl was an underrated 2000's movie

 

[Pappagallo]

Snatch is a pisser, still makes me laugh.

"Viva Las Vegas!"

 

[Steve Dore]

Snatch is a pisser ...

Failed anatomy 101?

 

[Manhattan Bronx]

OK substance abusers, which of you sickos (or medicos!) knew that vodka was the antidote for antifreeze?

A cat called "Tipsy" taught me this... only 8 lives left now I reckon

I remember watching a UK Vet show last year where they did a similar thing. Side note, I always wanted to be a vet.
