The fight scene when the punisher is in prison is brutal and really well done. I hope whoever is making those fight sequences gets a lot more work in the future. And room 237 was really good except for the moon landing bit mentioned above.

Yeah that was rad. Good suggestion thank you sir! Just one question: are their tons of badass cars rolling around in Australia or was that just this movie?

So the Zero Thereom on prime sounded ok and Christopher Waltz is awesome. It is not. I turned it off after 30 minutes. Do not watch that movie unless you're really high and want to do some rifftrax type poo poo.

Basebf555 posted:I'll throw in a dissenting opinion on that one. It's obviously not in the same league as Brazil, but Zero Theorem is still very good if you typically enjoy Gilliam. The world he creates was very interesting to me, and Waltz is really solid, if not completely mind-blowing like some of his previous roles have been. I like Gilliam quite a bit but this one was just wasn't doing it for me. The look of the film was the main problem for me. It was like what a teenager from the early 90's would think the future looks like.

I think Henry Rollins gets too many free passes just because of his music history. He's not a good actor.

I've seen him in a ton of movies and it's always some random "hey here's Henry Rollins" type deal. Its never anything significant, you could have plugged in 20 other actors in the same part and no one would know the difference. Watching his stand up specials is more like a chore than anything. Yeah dude I want to listen to you bitch about what music and celebrities you don't like for an hour. No thanks.

Chichevache posted:And yet James Hong turned it into one of the most decorated filmographies of all time. Maybe... some people are just interesting and you're not one of them? James Hong is a legit good actor though. And yes some people are interesting! I just don't think Henry Rollins is outside of his music, his schtick got old really fast.

Medullah posted:The Burbs is in my top 10 favorite movies of all time. The Money Pit was also funny, but I haven't watched it more than a couple times. The bathtub scene alone is worth watching the money pit, so goddamn hilarious. I still have not seen Joe vs the volcano. Is it worth it just for the novelty?

I like it as well. It mixed the 70s haunted house vibe with some modern effects and gore. Solid flick.

That show isn't blowing my mind but it scratches the gangster flick itch for me. I'm a few episodes into the second season and it's looking pretty much the same.

I liked the roommate as well. He's pretty much just a normal dude going through a rough patch with his job and women who's trying to help out his friend. And I may not be remembering it right but doesn't he imply that his friend has had a similar breakdown before? Something like "Are you hearing them again?" and the "no killing anyone" line?

Definitely watch East Bound and Down. Kenny Powers is the funniest rear end in a top hat you will ever hate and love at the same time. And I started rewatching Breaking Bad again and holy poo poo they cram a ton of stuff into the second season. I honestly don't remember all of that happening at that brisk of a pace, no wonder so many people got hooked on it. It's fuckin rad as hell.

Goon is fantastic! It's such a basic theme that's executed really well and straight forward. It's nice not having out of nowhere plot twists and such occasionally.

Check out Tusk, I think it's still on Netflix. I started watching Stranger Things and it's pretty good so far. It's not beating me over the head with 80s stuff like everyone says it does, it's just a series set in the 80s.

I'm in the same boat, I thought it ended great. I like the realistic approach. Like some crazy poo poo happens to you and it might change you for better or for worse but it doesn't rewrite your entire life. You're still going back to work on Monday.

Just finished The Invitation and it was excellent. That ending was pretty terrifying. Anyone that's going to watch The Overnight based on it is probably not going to like it. They're very different movies.

That's another thing I like about Daredevil, all of the women in it are secondary characters but they kick rear end and have their poo poo together.

I dug it. It wasn't mind blowing but it was a passable time travel-ish suspense movie.

The_Rob posted:I still think season 1 is really good. It's because it stuck with the original idea of the season. It was about a family trying to stay together. All the other stuff was a big part of it but it came back to a family trying to make it work. The problem with the later seasons is that they get to caught up in their own lore and lose sight of the original idea. Next thing you know there are 10 different stories from 10 different genres going on and none of them get wrapped up. They can't just stick to an idea and see it to its logical conclusion. This is exactly why I couldn't get into it, just waaaay too much going on. It was a total clusterfuck.

Ramagamma posted:The first episode of black mirror with the social media ratings was ok, felt about 15 minutes too long though. I thought the same thing, some more editing could have made that episode a lot better. I really like the San Junipero episode, it touched on some things that the show hasn't really explored yet and no I'm not talking about the sex stuff.

veni veni veni posted:Considering it's a film that is liked by almost no one I think you should go first. Fair enough, I'll go first. It's been a minute since I've seen it but I'll go off the top of my head. First off I like Justin Long, he sticks mostly to goofball sidekick roles but in this movie he plays a smarmy douchebag to perfection. I was rooting for him to get hosed up, he owned that role completely. The story was pretty original. The way the movie was shot and the setting was great, I like the simple, claustrophobic type movies. The doctor(?) guy was awesome, I could listen to him tell bullshit stories for hours, he's like a cool grandpa. The walrus outfit/costume or whatever was fuckin rad. It's very much a love it or hate it film, yeah it could have used some better editing and the humor(attempted humor whatever) kinda falls flat. It's got it's flaws no doubt but: veni veni veni posted:Tusk was hands down the worst movie I have ever seen in my entire life.
