Movies! Discuss them!

Discuss movies.

I just went and saw Up, and it was pretty awesome, with a very emotional beginning, and hilarious talking dogs. I loved the premise, and Pixar did a great job (again). I would recommend seeing it.

I just recently saw Open Season. [i know it's kinda old]

it was pretty funny, although i found the characters sarcastic and exaggerative, but oh well.

I saw up like 2 days ago? great movie

I watched Hancock last night and I really didn't like it. (more than I usually don't like movies) However, this isn't much of a surprise because I hate superhero movies. I thought the characters were stupid, the plot was cliche, and the whole idea behind the workings of the superheroes themselves was awful!

Another series to avoid is the BBC series "seekers" I watched the first episode and the acting was awful, plus the plot was like just about every cheap fantasy book (ie. the hardworking farmboy is part of a prophecy and he is needed so someone finds him, and he falls in with a wizard and a beautiful maiden who he falls in love with)

wow.... okay i will NOT be watching that movie. XD

speaking of bad movies, the Eragon movie FAILED AT LIFE!

oooh oooh The Garfield Movie (i think A Tail of Two Cats or something) was good!

a really really really old movie called Johnny English was also hilarious; stupid, yes, but hilarious.

I can't even say everything that they messed up!!

yeah, it would take like 50 pages of thingz 0.0 -.- =/

Yucky movie, i never saw, probly will never see (hopefully) is Saw. also Saw II, Saw III, Saw IV, and idk if there is a Saw V.

Sweeney Todd is the same way, pretty much.

Saw? weird name for a movie. but i guess W is a weird name too.

aren't them saw movies rated R?

Awesome movies:
The Matrix (1 & 2)
Star Wars (1, 3, 4, 5, and 6)
Lord of the Rings (All)
James Bond (A bunch)
The Dark Knight (Not too special)

Movies to avoid:
Pirates of the Carribean 3 (Made a rather joking plot a little too serious)
Eragon (I don't need to say why)
Terminator 3 (Lacked just about every element of a good action movie: characters, suspense, and, above all, good fight scenes)

A special place in my list of hated media will always be reserved for these three movies!

As for Eragon, I know it's bad, but please no raving. Everyone knows you hate it if you just bash it once.

No way!!! James Bond is stupid. He has too many girlfriends and no personality. Though Lord of the Rings was AWESOME!

You miss the point. It has a lot of good action. And good action is simple and at some times unintelligent (though not in James Bond), but fun to watch. On this note, I would like to add The Bourne Supremacy to my list.

I don't see the fun in watching two idiots slug it out! Plus, the plots in many of these movie are really stupid!

I just saw Men in Black, definitely an interesting movie... lol XD

oh, i saw a portion of Men In Black... i think. hilarious movie!

OK, another movie to miss... yesterday I saw 21. Apparently it was totally different from the book (my dad read the book). The characters were obnoxious, and the professor, the antagonist (sort of) was doing things that in real life he would never be able to get away with. I got bored with the movie when it was halfway done.

I saw Herbie Fully Loaded. i don't have much of an opinion on it, but it's an okay movie.

maybe because I saw it so many times

+1. The Bourne Series is an EXCELLENT watch.

I would also recommend the movie Ghost Town. A brilliant group of actors, an interesting story [though a bit idiotic], and a nice dip in hilarious british-esk comedy! [Though beware of a tad bit of language.]

Okay...can I rant on Eragon? No? okay.

Just one thing to say, though:

If you haven't read the book, the movie is great. If you have, the movie SUCKED!!
