My Name is Nobody is also good, though probably best after you've seen all the ones you listed. I still think Unforgiven>*

I liked the new 3:10 to Yuma and True Grit way better than the old ones, though I'm not as hopeful about Magnificent 7 and critics seem to agree.

I agree with this. The new 3:10 to Yuma is probably my overall favorite western-style movie. The Hills have Eyes remake is also a lot better than the old one.

I feel a deep sense of shame for DeNiro now because of that film.*

Hey is that Rob Zombie film really like Manhunt? I loath Rob Zombie films but I loved Manhunt so I'm torn...

* I just realised this might sound more wanky than silly as I intended it to be. I'll watch those other films to see if Zac is a cool dude. :)

I really don't see how you could possibly like 31 if you didn't like Devil's Rejects or House of 1000 Corpses. There are those, he said in the voice of Malcom MacDowell from Fallout 3, there are those, who would accuse Rob Zombie of having grown as a director since Ho1kC. There are those that who The Devil's Rejects is a legitimate work of satire with things to say about the outside world, there are those who claim that The Lords of Salem is not just a good Rob Zombie movie, but a good movie period. 31 isn't just Rob Zombie Robzombieing as hard as he can, it is his vehement and sincere denial to those treacherous and unwarranted accusations.

That said, I'm getting a chainsaw for my birthday this week and you all saw that the Heads in the movie had -Head names for their chainsaws so it's only right that my chainsaw gets a -Head name too. What does GBS think is an appropriate name for a workin goon's chainsaw?

This is my home account (work has "public computers" so I bought another account for that) so thanks for warning me away from 31. DR and HO1000c were loving awful. I kinda liked "lords" because it was just so odd and I like film where the protagonists are hosed from the beginning but don't know it (Mouth of Madness) but yeah, gently caress 31 if it's just his usual poo poo affair.

I'd call your Chainsaw Mr. WaterHead.

It makes no sense in any common way, but dammit, Mr. Water is a danged treasure.

London Has Fallen is on Netflix, I have no idea how they got that cast to agree to film this movie. It's a B movie with a good cast. It's the most "Americuh gently caress Yeah!" movie I've seen in a long time. The dialog is right out of a hokey B action flick. It's fun, ridiculous, and awful but it's not a waste of time if you're in the mood for it.

I enjoyed Olympus has Fallen so i will probably watch this one at some point.

Also Uwe Boll made Assault on Wall Street which I was very pleasantly surprised by.

I loved it just because of how over the top it was. Every time some other leader died I was like "wait who was that" but it didn't matter because all that mattered was the USA president. But i mean really the scenario is just absurd, even more absurd than the original Olympus has Fallen with the north koreans in the AC130 or whatever. No terrorist groups are, were, or ever will be that organized and widespread.

Uwe Boll actually has a couple of gems out there. Postal is fantastic and is a must see if you have sat through any of his movies. I believe there is a second Assault on Wall Street movie (maybe it's DC or something, I forget). Rampage isn't bad, Attack on Darfur was fairly decent, at least it was nice to see him attempt to make an actual film.

Best drat post in the thread.

RAMPAGE was pretty good but he flaked out on the ending and I can't remember why now. Like, the main dude does it all and frames his friend sayng it was a political statement but it was just to rob a bank... But I THINK there's a post-credits sequence where the main dude laments about how poo poo he was. STICK TO YOUR loving GUNS AND KEEP IT INTERESTING, YOU rear end in a top hat!

Postal was p.funny in how awful it was, but like, in a genuine way.

No movie actually requires 300m to break even. Hollywood developed a system where they effectively pay themselves for promotional costs (and staffing and everything else) and cut their tax liabilities to nothing in the process.

I thought the original True Grit was fine but not a top ten western or anything to begin with, the remake was good. 3:10 to Yuma is a harder call to make just because the original was perfect. I liked the remake, but it's harder to please everyone when the original was more than just "John Wayne western #45". Van Heflin did a much better job at representing the simple every day man, insecure about providing for his family. Even the concern that his wife might want to gently caress Glenn Ford, or that his kids would think he's a bad rear end criminal, all of it it made sense and was believable. I can't insult Bale for being handsome, but it does make the relationship a little bit weird. Two super famous well loved dudes facing off where one tries to make his voice sad or some poo poo so you believe he's actually insecure or threatened, but you can't see past what you know.
