"Ned Kelly"- I saw the 1970 version (it was remade a few years back). It starred Mick Jagger as some strange Aussie outlaw from the 1800's but for whatever reason all the songs were sung in a 1970 country style by a very American-sounding Waylon Jennings.

Jagger was OK, the music was OK but didn't seem to fit, but it really lacked the Peckinpah-like violence I crave from any sort of western!

Worst miscasting ever putting nancy boy Mick Jagger as Ned Kelly.

The Haunting in Connecticut.

5 out of 10

it had some nicely placed "holy shit" moments, but some of the special effects and makeup were lame.

I gave it about a 6...a few freaky moments but pretty predictable.

definitely predictable. but i would have given it a higher score if they'd done better with some of the effects. and a higher body count. those who were already dead at the start of the movie don't count.

i watched Warehouse 13 on USA right after it, and it made me sad that a SyFy original had better effects and a bigger body count.

Lessee..the last film I saw was Bruno. I'll give it 7/10. I know the charcater's outrageously gay and that that's the whole point of it. But, my god, there was so much faggotry going on it was almost overbearing. Obviously, I like the fact that a lot of it's 'real' *spolier* - the wrestling hooligans doing all they can to kill 'Bruno' when they find out he's gay (having dressed up as a 'wrestler' of some sort with a mullet and calling himself 'Straight Dave') is quite alarming.


The charity single at the end is great. Slash Bono, Sting, Snoop Dogg and Chris Martin are in it. I must've seen the ending about 5 times now.

How does it compare to the Borat film?

Borat was genius! Bruno is not. Not even close.

[acefrehleysbeer]

Eraserhead. It was on the streaming Netflix, so I said fuck it and watched it sober. I remember seeing it stoned out of my fucking gourd when I was 18 or so and thinking it was pure genius. Now it think it's a steaming pile of shit. 1/10

[acefrehleysbeer]

Dimevision:The Fun I Had Pt1........5/5

There Will Be Blood...........5/5

Roadside Prophets..........John Doe should act more..........3.5/5

Iron Maiden...........Death on the Road............2.5/5


Savage Killing Picture........some film I dubbed for Makaveli, there is no script that I can tell and it all in Japanese but the scene with the hot chick breastfeeding a babydoll makes up for the fat jap raping a fat girl.
Disturbing shit.........I wish I knew what the fuck it was about.....but then again maybe not........I aint even sure if this is the name of the film or if it even has a name or point but as far as a mind fuck goes 5/5

August Underground.......Another one for Mak.....the scene where dude tells the chick he will give her a ride for some head and then after she does it and he jaws her always makes me laugh.........4/5

[MurrayFiend]

The Late Shift- 6/10. It had its moments and seemed like a decent summation of the whole Carson torch-passing fiasco, but it was largely 'meh', and they really could've found someone better to play Leno.

[caroline]

The Burrowers - 6/10

I applaud the attempt to make a horror/western, but it moved too slowly, the characters were never developed properly, the creatures were weak and the end sucked.

See DEAD BIRDS..much better horror film with a western-ish setting.

Thanks for the input. I'll keep an eye out for it.

Next up:
Push: 5/10

Reminded me why I never rent PG-13 movies.

[Subhuman Yeti]

The Union: the Business of Getting High - 5/5


A great, really informative doc/flick for pot smokers and literally everyone else in every corner of global society...


The BEST of it's kind, anywhere. Ever.


Find it, watch it, live it, share it with others. Repeat.

Shamefully, last week I saw Chinatown for the first time. What an excellent film, I rarely give anything the full 10/10 but this time I think I've seen a flick that deserves it. It's my favourite Jack Nicholson role, and I think Faye Dunaway and John Huston are both superlatively cast.

Agreed with the strange decision to cast Jagger as Ned Kelly, but he was very good in Nic Roeg's Performance, which was the same year I believe.

To the person slightly disappointed by Harry Potter; what the fuck do you expect? You read children's books, for fuck's sake.

[saracapri]

X-Men: I just watched this for the first time. Now I want to see the sequel. Or sequels, whatever. This movie was awesome and if I didn't have a little boy who loves superhero movies, I never would have seen it.

My husband is digging the hell out of that one too.

Did you get a chance to see Brown Dirt Warrior's movie while it was still up on Youtube, Yeti?

If not go to the link in my sig and order it. It's really worth it.

[Itwalksamongus]

Watched this last night -



- with the hilariously bumbling Walter Matthau and the gloriously porkable Inger Stevens. A classic 60's bedroom romp. Us old guys love that shit. It's my version of comfort food.

Chinatown is awesome
There's another movie where Nicholson plays the same role. Forgot the title though

One of my favorite films of all time! "The Two Jakes" (the sequel) is pretty good too.

I'm sure you've already seen it, but on the off chance you haven't, L.A. Confidential is another great movie in that vein ...

[MurrayFiend]

Dirty Harry- 7/10. Good, but no big deal, really.

[Royal Dudeness]

Saw The Hangover last night finally.

Absolutely hysterical. No dull moments.

9/10

[Bridget]

When Harry Met Sally - 9/10.

Meg Ryan - looking human, wearing pants up to her armpits.

Bruno Kirby - alive, and says the line "You made a woman meow?"

I PWN-ed the 5 eps reloaded on Youtube, I'd like to see the whole flick.

Thanks much, eh!

The second one is really good, but I wouldn't bother with the third one.

[James Halford Tate]

Watched "Swing Vote" last night, I laughed out loud a few times.

[stella_d_ella]

Caught a few on vacation:

Taken: I'm going to give this one a 9/10. Great movie, which I didn't even want to see, but was glad I did.

House Bunny: After watching this, I feel oddly compelled to say people's names in an exorcist tone upon first meeting them. Other than that, a few good lines came from this movie, which I have been quoting daily. Despite being a completely mindless view, I'm giving it a 6/10.

Captivity: Completely screwed up. I think it ranks right up there with "Silence of the Lambs"- yet I believe this production borrowed the "Lambs" props. This was probably the first movie that has ever made me gag due to content. I'm giving this a 9/10. I recommend it.

Baby Mama: Sucked worse than an Amish virgin. I turned it off. 0/10

[Sinderella]

Baby Mama: Sucked worse than an Amish virgin. I turned it off. 0/10

Horsemen

7 out of 10. predictable in some spots, but even then they still manage to throw you a curve ball. Kinda leaves you hanging at the end, but i guess that's a good way to pave the road for a sequel.

plus Dennis Quaid is in it. you can't go wrong with him.

[Skate4RnR]

Major Payne. I love silly movies like that but had missed this one.

Two stars but a hilarious movie.

[SLASH1976]

Part two is great, the opening scene with Nightcrawler on a good surround system kicks ass !

[johnk5150]

Baby Mama: Sucked worse than an Amish virgin. I turned it off. 0/10

LMAO

Agreed. Saw the first ten minutes and turned it off almost immediately upon Amy Poehler's appearance.

[johnk5150]

Body Of Lies - Decent enough. I hate to say it but that fucking DiCaprio can act.

Sin City on Blu Ray - NO extras except commentary. Why pay more for that? The movie itself rules still.

[YYC]

Benjamin Button What a boring, pretentious, self-important pieces of shit. I actually fell asleep for 30 minutes in the middle, woke up, and felt like I'd missed nothing. The supposedly astounding special effects were nothing to write home about. Whatever. It's like a narcolepsy-inducing version of Forrest Gump. 3/10

[jizzyjizim]

HOME: My Bloody Valentine....the new one with the guy from Supernatural.. terrible....there was some tit and snatch in it though...highlight of the movie for me.

THEATRE: Hangover, same thing as pretty much everybody else on here said...hilarious...I am going to see the new Harry Potter movie tonight...looking forward to it

[acefrehleysbeer]

Taking Of Pelham 123.....original with Mathau, I think its the first movie that was not animated or a horror flick me and my daughter watched. She loved it so did I........5/5.
