What Movies/DVDs/Television shows are YOU watching?

[Dead to Rights]

Just finished watching Spirited Away. Good movie, imo.

[RayFoxSith]

I picked up the Death Note Vol. 1 DVD. I'm surprised the dub is pretty good. I hope they don't screw up on the ending scenes though, that scene sold the series.

[bullman422]

Just got Ratatouille and plan to watch it over the weekend.

[Tenbatsu]

Seven Years in Tibet and 28 Weeks Later

[HellaJera]

THE KUMITE!

I love that movie.

[noloe4]

Finished watchin Orphen:Season 1 & 2. Both were excellent,but i'm in the minority cuz I actually liked Season 2 more. Mostly because of Lycoris(sp?). Currently i'm watchin Magic Knight Rayearth:Season 1. It's OK so far. It reminds me of a made for TV RPG so that's cool I guess.

Orson Welles' F for Fake

Night at the Museum.

[Futomimi]

My friend made me watch MST3K with him over the weekend. :evil:
What a humongous waste of my time. If he ever makes me watch anything that terrible/dorky again, he's getting cockpunched.

[Delition]

I've stooped low enough to watch my DVDs "The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3". I wish I had more DVDs to watch.

Mr Brooks. It was cool.

Been watching Planet Earth in HD. I refuse to watch it unless under the influence... gives it a more dramatic effect, or at least I like to think it does.

I got The Descent and 28 Days Later on Blu-Ray for $17 flat. The Descent is AWESOME looking, 28 Days Later is also nice but nothing to post about.

Watched Live Free or Die Hard Tuesda on BR. The case said PG-13 but I think the unrated version is still on there because there was plenty of explicit language. :) Anyway it lives up to all the other Die Hard movies, gotta love the monkey man at the begining... and the end.

[Sayckeone]

Anyway it lives up to all the other Die Hard movies
It absolutely does not.

[EvilHero]

I started up on the Ultimate Fighter Season 2.

[Gillian Seed]

House of Games

everyone should watch Funny Games before the american remake is released.

I still have a Fistful of Dollars unwatched here... Also Hostel on Blu Ray I got the other day, with The Seinfeld giftset from best buy in the refrigerator package.

[noloe4]

Finished watching Magic Knight Rayearth Seasons 1&2. Watchin Gilgamesh now...it's pretty interesting thus far.

[Futomimi]

Over the Thanksgiving break, I caught up on Dexter season 2, watched a really frightening and hilarious documentary called Darkor, The Princess and the Warrior, Boogie Nights, Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle, the Twin Peaks movie, and a collection of short Vincent Price movies based on Hawthorne and Poe.

And I have Diabolique waiting for me in my mailbox whenever I feel like walking far enough to go pick it up. Yay!

[Sayckeone]

You caught up on Dexter, but not Heroes? For shame, Mimi.

[Futomimi]

That's because I didn't have computer access, and I watch Heroes through Netflix's instant viewing thingy.

Gilgamesh looks pretty good. I think i'll pick this one up and give it a shot.

[Sayckeone]

No Country For Old Men.

Awesome movie. I had read that the Coen Brothers lost it, what with Intolerable Cruelty, The Lady Killers, etc., and if that's true, they've definitely gotten it back with this one. They are truly excellent filmmakers.

Everyone was great in it, but Javier Bardem stole the show. His portrayal of Anton Chigurh was amazing. Everytime he walked on screen, I could not take my eyes off of him for even a second.

Cross post, imo.

[Delition]

I'm going to be watching the first season of "Twin Peaks" tonight, but I'm not sure as to whether I'll like it or not.

[Sayckeone]

I don't think anyone is sure whether they'll like something or not until they see it...

[Dim Locator]

I haven't seen that show since it first came on TV. I need that gold Set.

[DamageCity]

I have the first season of Twin Peaks but it doesn't come with the pilot episode so it just kind of starts after the murder.

[Delition]

I don't think anyone is sure whether they'll like something or not until they see it...

Usually there's a feeling of "I might like this" or "I probably won't like this", but with Twin Peaks I was completely neutral. I rented it on a whim, so there was no hint of either feeling.

I must admit, though, that although I like the writing and the scenario in general I am not a huge fan of the acting. The lack of the pilot episode did kind of confuse me as I initially thought I picked the second episode instead of the first (the cursor was hardly visible on my TV), but I also thought it was neat to have a small recap in the beginning of the first episode anyway.

[noloe4]

Well I'm done with Gravitation. I enjoyed everything about it,but the ending which could have been a lot better,but it was kinda like OK....WTF. They should have had the two main characters show more affection towards each other in there last scenes together or something...oh well...still an awesome series...next up is The Slayers(Season 1).

[RayFoxSith]

After Twin Peaks, I never looked at a midget the same way I used to.

[Sayckeone]

I want a midget for a pet.

[Futomimi]

LOL
That midget was pretty creepy though imo.

[Gillian Seed]

I love Twin Peaks. But I am just biased for David Lynch #### so don't take my word for it. Ask Kid. I'm getting the gold set for christmas which is nice.

Thanks for the good works on No Country..., Sayck, I think ill go see it for sure really soon.

[Sayckeone]

Hurry up. I don't think it's going to be in theaters for more than a week or two longer.

[SlaughterX]

I'm watching Six Feet Under... on the 2nd disc of the first season... still have a long ways to go, so it should keep me entertained for some time.

[Esoteric]

The comedy of Kyle Cease. Holy crap. Hilarious.

[Delition]

It's currently buy 2 get 2 free on DVDs at GameStop, so I bought:

Full Metal Panic Fumoffu (sp?) box set as a gift,
Twin Peaks Seasons 1 & 2 for myself,
South Park Season 1 as a gift, and
Futurama Season 1 for myself.

I am undecided as to whether I should finish Twin Peaks or watch some Futurama tonight. Perhaps a little of both.

The Red Room

[Sayckeone]

Cocaine Cowboys.

[Saishu]

I Am Legend!

I liked it. Some girls threw crap on me in the theater, and The Simpsons' ringtone killed the mood twice, but it was a great movie.

[Sayckeone]

Considering how unfaithful it is to the book, I doubt that.

[Dim Locator]

That's what I heard too... Seems like NoTD (Matheson has said as much himself) is still the best adaptation of the book... Allegorical but still.

[Sayckeone]

The only thing I can get out of NoTD is Night of the Living Dead, which was inspired by I Am Legend...

And if that's the case, holy #### the movies much be ridiculously inaccurate.

You can tell how inaccurate I Am Legend is just by watching the trailers. From Robert Neville being Black, to him driving a Mustang(which makes NO ####ing sense).

[Dim Locator]

Yep I meant Night of the Living Dead its considered an allegorical adaptation. Matheson has said it was karma that George didn't get the rights to the film in the first place(not verbatim) ... If your a Vincent Price fan at all I would recommend Last Man on Earth but it completely wimps out on the ending.

Cinderella Man :P

I saw I am Legend the other day. I thought it was a really good movie, i'd hate to be caught in that position.

Saw Blood:The Last Vampire and Dead Leaves on the Sci-Fi channel earlier in the week. Dead Leaves was a lot better IMO.

[Dim Locator]

The Beast Must Die!

[Flußkönig]

Saw Blood:The Last Vampire and Dead Leaves on the Sci-Fi channel earlier in the week. Dead Leaves was a lot better IMO.

I am not a big fan of Sci-fi's anime block. They censor pretty much all foul language with bleeps, and block images of bare breasts and g - strings with large opaque circles. I find both practices to be pretty annoying when I am trying to get into a show.

In January they are going to start airing Tactics, which is a series that I think you might like Noloe4. Well, given the shows you have said you like it seems like a good fit.

[Esoteric]

Just saw I Am Legend.

Despite being unfaithful to the book, this is one of the better movies I have seen recently put out by Hollywood, especially with the current slump. Will Smith's acting performance in this was the best I have ever seen of him, as well as one of the best performances given by any actor I have seen ever (mind you, one of the best, not THE best). If the movie was horrible, his perforance could have made the movie bearable, but luckily, the movie also happened to be pretty good.

Yeah I heard about the Tactics series. Early next year the complete box set with come out and i'll probably pick it up. Cuz like you said the censorship on the Sci-Fi channel is ridiculous,but thanks for the heads up..i'll still check it out.

Watched all 3 OVA's of New Fist of the North Star. Good god it was gory and kickass. I loved every second of it, I really wish there was more.

The original is so ####ing bizarre. Not because Leatherface was going around with a chainsaw killing people. I don't know if it was the way it was filmed or the tone it set, but it did something to me when I first watched it.

Watched: Bourne Ultimatum, and At World's End.

Yeah, there is something about it... it's infamous for being one of the goriest horror films of all time for some reason, but when you actually watch it, you'll notice that there isn't really that much blood, or onscreen violence, at all. And I doubt that it's because even that level of gore hadn't been seen before. I mean, it was the freaking 70's. Last House on the Left was a lot more visually disturbing and it came out 2 years prior to TCM.
Anyway, mark of a great movie imo.

[RayFoxSith]

Scanners

I just noticed this. Awesome, yet strange movie.

[Sayckeone]

Hostel.

I liked it, but was expecting more from Eli Roth. Wasn't as graphic, gory, and explicit as I had hoped it would be.

The American when Paxton is trying to escape is ####ing awesome. Best character in the whole movie.

Masters of Horror: The Black Cat

Combs played an excellent Poe and the research on the subject was top notch. Highly recommended...

[Sayckeone]

The Orphanage - Pretty good movie from Spain about a haunted orphange. Nothing really scary, though I don't think it was meant to be. Everything worked and made sense. Sack mask kid was cool looking. Recommended.

I Am Legend - Decent enough. Kept my attention the whole way through, though there are a few issues that keep it from being great: horrible ending, bad CG(why not use real people?), important plot elements left out from the book, too short, a little bit of that Will Smith corniness that was out of place, etc.

Tried to see There Will Be Blood, but all the showings were sold out, so I opted for the IMAX version of I Am Legend

[EvilHero]

Alien Vs. Predator Requiem, saw it on Christmas. Small spoilers for those who wanted to see it:

Not a bad movie, better than the last one. All I have to say is that anybody in that movie was fair game, regardless of age. Baby aliens bursting out of a 13 year old kid. Pred-Alien overlooking an infancy ward full of helpless babies (you didn't see him eat them, but you so knew he did :cry: ) Laying eggs in pregneant women...

Characters were pretty bad, reminded me of the Freddy Vs. Jason cast.

[Sayckeone]

Blood Diamond. Good movie.

Finished season one of Heroes and watched 2 BBC documentaries... one about eating disorders/extreme dieting, and another about guys that fall in "love" with their RealDolls and treat them as their live-in girlfriends (i.e. introduce them to their family, eat dinner with them, etc.) The second one was amazing and hilarious.

[Dim Locator]

What's the name? Sounds like fun. Sounds like a documentary that Sundance would play on Mondays...

[Futomimi]

It was part of their BBC America Reveals series, and it's called Love Me, Love My Doll or something like that. Unfortunately there's only one clip of it on youtube, and it's pretty short.

Resident Evil Extinction.. got this from my gift cards. I am not touching them again though going to actually save them towards my triple soon! Going to check this out later today.

What did you think Al? I thought the movie was pretty good, though I wish the commentary had the actor's thoughts as well. Anyways you watch the trailer for RE: Degeneration? Looks like another RE with Claire and Leon.

[DarkShear]

Also forgot to mention that I saw Labyrinth the other night. I hadn't seen that since 1984 at a drive in movie theater. I was a clever child at the age of 3 and thought that when I turned down the car's radio it would effect everyones sound.

I watched the movie I rented last night (Boogey Man 2), and I thought it would be just a good movie to pass the time but MAN was it gorey! A little too much for my taste :shock:

HBK is the best damn wrestler of all time. I really didn't know he had a drug problem, but I guess they all do at some point. The DVD covers everything, when Bret Hart got screwed, his back injury, drug problems, D-Generation X, it ended up being a lot better than I had expected.

Over the last few days, I watched the entirety of "Arrested Development". I ended up watching the first season of "Futurama" last night.

Now I'm debating as to whether I should torture/amuse myself by watching "Captain N: The Game Master".

[RayFoxSith]

^Arrested Development is the funniest #### you will ever see on television.

[Dim Locator]

I have it on my Queue... I own the First Vol.1 of the Super Show and The Adventures of Super Mario Brothers 3.... Really should have learned by now that these aren't as entertaining as they once were...

^Arrested Development is the funniest #### you will ever see on television.

If Arrested Development is another name for The Three Stooges, then you are correct.

[Gillian Seed]

Cloverfield, it was good actually. Intense, cheesy at certain points, almost predictable, but the ending saves it all.

Just finished watching Cloverfield. It was .. interesting (working on a writeup for DW360).

[Arjuna]

Watched Cloverfield at 11:55AM. It was made of pure win, the ending was as I pretty much expected though... I definitely see a sequel coming out of this.

Don't even bother reading reviews, people are so being so adamant to make asses of theirselves to call it a Godzilla/Blair Witch'ish sort of film. Which it is completely not, it puts those to shame. Every moment after the monster strikes is intense.

:( @ Hud.

[Esoteric]

Juno

How was it?

I LOVE IT. But it's not for everyone. Fox Searchlight is sort of marketing it in the same light as Little Miss Sunshine, and they are not far off. A sort of macabre dark humour movie with stellar acting and a script from a first-time writer. I really hate comparing it to Little Miss Sunshine, but really, if you like LMS, you'll like Juno. It's intellegent, but it takes itself a bit too seriously sometimes, and you can tell that Fox Searchlight edited the script at certian points in the movie, and this incoherence of writing stands out like a tellitubby; this aspect is extremely unacceptable I still can't get over how well Ellen Page did in this movie. It almost puts her performance in Hard Candy to shame. Almost.

I agree with you on how people do reviews, seems they all try to find the quick and easy way (and more times incorrect) to describe a movie.. I liked it for what it was. Not often do I go to a movie where at the end, everybody is dead silent. Almost as if people where still trying to proses what they just seen.

Unfortunately the GF didn't like it quite as much.. But then again she's not a fan of the monster movie genera. She thinks watching "Godzilla: King of Monsters" is a form of torture.

Just saw Cloverfield. Awesome movie. Lived up to the hype Al and I set for it over the past 6 months. Al, what movie was it that showed the first trailer? I can't remember.

Also, not to be argumentative, but the Godzilla/Blair Witch assertion is entirely accurate, thought the movie is, in a way, different. You have a giant monster running around, Godzilla. You have the film being displayed on a handicam that was supposed to be found after the events they depict took place, Blair Witch. The main difference from Blair Witch is that Cloverfield isn't trying to trick you into thinking these were actual events.

The United States officially makes the best giant monster movies.

Why don't we have a video game about a giant monster attacking our civilization? PS3, pls. Western dev, pls. NOT based on Cloverfield, pls.

Al, is it just me, or did Hud calling, "Rob! Rooob! ROB!" constantly, remind you of, "Walt! WALT! WAAAAAAAAAALT!!!"

Also, this movie has two of the most beautiful women I have ever seen. Like, Hayden P beautiful.

Oh, and everytime I saw Cloverfield, I couldn't help but think about SotC.

Can't wait for the BD with extra footage. I have to see more of this ####ing beast.

I'm totally buying Lost S3 for $120 just to support this totally ####ing awesome production company.

Last thing, no sequel. I see why people claim there will be, but no. There's nothing more to explore here other them more footage of the same thing.

I'm not a Star Trek fan, but I'm totally seeing the new Star Trek just because it's Bad Robot.

Sayck, not sure if your interested but I dug this link up
Cloverfield Clues
http://cloverfieldclues.blogspot.com/

Has some interesting back story info, photos of incidents before the movie took place, and a manga comic that also takes place before the movie (with english translations).

It seems the viral marketing is not done quite yet. As new information is still being released.

[Sayckeone]

Awesome, Raithgar! I'm gonna definitely going to check this out.

Ok so I saw Cloverfield and LOVED it. Totally exceeded my expectations. I've had a high standard for movies latley, due to the recent trash, and Cloverfield was beyond that standard. I don't really have much to say about it. It was just great.

In my local paper's review, the guy said he was confused as to how they could film, or how the film could survive, or something because in the opening gov't descriptions there was something that contraditcted the existance of the tape. I didn't get this contradiction. Did anyone?

Also, I'm very much confused by the choice to have Giachino write a 6 minute overture for the ending credits. What perturbed me most was that it worked REALLY WELL. In all context, the music should be out of place, but it works perfectly, as if it's supposed to accompany you as you take in what just happened. Well done, Abrams, on the choice.

Can't wait for Lost4.

[Raithgar]

The only thing that can come to mind about any contradictions during the beginning of Cloverfield, and this may be a stretch..

Since the tape was originally created to inform people of what exactly happened that day, Yet it seems that the government was limiting or suppressing access to the footage (authorized access, restrictions on duplication).

like a said.. it may be a long shot.

[Sayckeone]

There were no contradictions. All that the government's description said was that the video was found in Central Park, and it was.

There's nothing showing evidence of any restrictions on the footage, though it's safe to assume that it's generally for government viewing only, and that what we're watching is leaked and classified.

I ended up watching "Mr. Brooks" and "Resident Evil: Extinction" recently.

I actually really enjoyed Mr. Brooks. I'm normally not a huge fan of those types of movies, but I ended up watching almost all of it (we were playing Samurai Warriors 2: Empires while watching movies). I wish they would have left the last two or so minutes out of the movie, so that the scene before it could have taken effect, but aside from that I had no problems with the movie whatsoever. Good acting, although I didn't care for Demi Moore's character. Whether it was just because of the way the character was supposed to be like, or Moore's acting, I just didn't like her.

On the other hand, Extinction was crap. Spent most of the time playing SW:2, especially whenever Alice used any of her telekinetic powers. Having an overpowered killing machine in anything RE related kills the entire mood of it. That was my biggest problem with RE4. It was a great game, but not really a "survival" game.

[Futomimi]

Watched Accepted last night, and I tried to rewatch The Exorcist over the weekend, but my parents' DVD player crapped out. :(

[Jack Frost]

Juno

How was it?

I LOVE IT. But it's not for everyone. Fox Searchlight is sort of marketing it in the same light as Little Miss Sunshine, and they are not far off. A sort of macabre dark humour movie with stellar acting and a script from a first-time writer. I really hate comparing it to Little Miss Sunshine, but really, if you like LMS, you'll like Juno. It's intellegent, but it takes itself a bit too seriously sometimes, and you can tell that Fox Searchlight edited the script at certian points in the movie, and this incoherence of writing stands out like a tellitubby; this aspect is extremely unacceptable I still can't get over how well Ellen Page did in this movie. It almost puts her performance in Hard Candy to shame. Almost.
Which parts do you think were edited? I read that the script was mostly unchanged from the first draft.

Overall, I liked it for the dialogue and acting but not the characterizations. The characters appeased to mass media's gross generalization of how all pregnant teens and adoptive parents would act (i.e., the boy always wants the girl to get an abortion, the adoptive mom is obsessed, and the adoptive dad is a flake). Not very original from that standpoint.

[Sayckeone]

When I was a teen, if I had gotten a girl pregnant, there would have been two options for her: A.) Get an abortion, or B.) Get pushed down the stairs.

[Arjuna]

Falcon Punch IMO.

Falcon punch wouldn't work. You'd get caught out. At least if you push her down the stairs you can say she fell.

[Esoteric]

If that's the case, then the script is flawed, IMO. Diablo is a first-time script writer after all. Little Miss Sunshine had it's flaws too.

Saw Mr. Brooks today. Weird movie.

Man, I am totally impressed with the Viral Marketing on this movie. It really makes it worth it to be obssesed with the movie (I'm not, but seeing from the website, many are).

[Delition]

Saw Mr. Brooks today. Weird movie.

Were you like me, and thought they should have kept the last scene out of the movie? Again, I thought it would have been better if they would have ended it a minute or two earlier.

[RayFoxSith]

Yeah, that last bit was totally unnecessary. It should've ended when dane Cook died. But going with all the Cloverfield hubbub, there's supposed to be a prequel manga based on the founder of Taruwhatchamacallit and Slusho in Feburary, from what I hear.

[Gillian Seed]

I wouldnt want a cloverfeild sequel. I like how it was just exactly what it was, not explanations and just from the veiwpoint.

I didnt really like how we were so focused on Rob and his drama and no one else had any emotional time besides him. We see him upset on the phone talking about his brothers death to his mother, and you dont see anyone else say or show any kind of worry towards any of there own family. I understand he was the main character, but at least give everyone some believability instead of just acting as lemmings and camera men for Robs mission to find the girl.

That is just a MINOR gripe to an overall cool movie.

Im with you Sayck, cant wait for the Blu release.

I did like Little Miss Sunshine. Well you make it sound good, and I have really wanted to see it for some time. I will need to now sometime.

Rambo.

Good movie, though not as brutal as I had hoped it would be.

I think Rambo and the sniper completed every CoD4 challenge in the span of an hour and a half. I'm impressed.

Watched Amistad last night, started off perfectly, good movie... I WANT BE FREE!

started Weeds season 3 last night. Anyone else watched this show yet?

Wasn't aware that the 3rd season had already started, I still haven't finished the second. It was all good until I realized with the amount of mistakes that bitch had made through out her "career" that she should have been dead or in jail long ago, really the only reason I watch it is because of Conrad, he's pretty funny.

[Dim Locator]

Dawn of the Dead (Cannes Cut)

[noloe4]

Just finished watching X:Remix last night. It was as good as I expected. The characters were displayed fairly nicely. I have Tokyo Babylon and X:The Movie is on it's way to me so I can get more insight into the "X" universe. Hell I may even get the mangas eventually. Well next up I'm gonna watch The Record of Lodoss War since it's pretty much a classic and deep rooted in fantasy.

Season 3 is actually over, and has been for a little while now I guess. Conrad is the man.

[SlaughterX]

About to go on to the 3rd disc of the first season of Six Feet Under. I really have way too much stuff to watch right now, at least as far as TV series go. Damn working all the time, but I guess it has its advantages, other than money of coarse...

I watched this again. I really think that this has to one of the best games I've ever played, and the animation is excellent. :)

Mad Max

[Master Zombots]

Mad Max That's a great film. All of them aren't that bad, really. Did you know that a new one is planned? :)

Yeah the first Saw was lame and with the narrative structure the way it was it felt more like a made for TV Movie than a Horror flick...

Lost Highway Extras Disc.

[Sayckeone]

I haven't seen that in 10 years. Added to Netflix queue.

[Kakizaki]

I never liked Lost Highway. Maybe it is worth a rewatch?

[Gillian Seed]

I love David Lynch... I havent seen the whole movie though, Lost Highway that is.

[Sayckeone]

I liked it back in the day. What's the worst that can come of rewatching it? You don't like it? Who knows, maybe now you do. If you have NetFlix or a similar service, you really can't lose.

[Gillian Seed]

I have the road warrior out right now, but the woman has the car and our mail is in it...
