Artanis I Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Alien again. Probably the first time since Prometheus came out (whoops). Still my favourite of the franchise. 4 hours ago, Littleworlds said: All 3 The Naked Gun films. So silly, so great! 3 of his best Quote

I agree completely. The first film is basically a completely different genre than its successors. Quote
Actor Builder Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 The Amazing Bulk. A Hulk Parody mess thing. I appreciated it. It's hard to say I liked it, but it was definitely worth watching. Quote
BaneShake Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 Just caught the first available showing of Wonder Woman with my girlfriend last night. Absolutely incredible. Quote
quark12000 Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 Wonder Woman. Good movie. Of course, compared to DC recent cinematic efforts, it's a masterpiece! Quote
Forresto Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 (edited) Get Out - Incredibly well paced for a horror movie, actually creeped me the heck out in broad day light. Excellent social commentary as well that blended perfectly with the horror which of course is the master stroke of any good horror film. The fear stems from the realism of the horror and despite some aspects towards the end being obviously and purposely ridiculous, the situations are protagonist are put in throughout are not. Logan - Fantastic movie, extraordinarily well conceived. I had never read the Old Man Logan comic series and when I read their premise I was really concerned the movie was going to be ridiculous. However they went an entirely different direction while keeping that same dystopic feel and it works perfectly with the X-Men franchise. To me anyways, i'm not a big comic reader so i'm coming at this having only ever watched the films. On May 29, 2017 at 9:55 PM, Artanis I said: Alien again. Probably the first time since Prometheus came out (whoops). Still my favourite of the franchise. Alien is a masterpiece. To me at least its one of the greatest films ever conceived and executed.

PicnicBasketSam Posted June 9, 2017 Posted June 9, 2017 (edited) In the past month I watched, for the first time, the following movies: Monty Python and the Holy Grail Spaceballs The Medallion (mid-oughts Jackie Chan flick) The Girl Who Leapt Through Time Summer Wars Get Smart Wolf Children The Princess and the Frog Fast & Furious 4 Fast Five Taika Waititi's Boy Storks Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life Pirates of the Caribbean 5 xXx: Return of Xander Cage Monty Python was my favorite out of all that. Pirates 5 was really disappointing. Middle School is a pretty crappy kids' movie (unlike Storks. I really recommend that.) which, for some reason, has a literal M Night Shyamalan plot twist in it. I also quite disliked Fast Five, more than the other 3 of those movies I've watched. It was too long and too ridiculous and ceased to be any kind of enjoyable once it stopped being a heist movie. Summer Wars, The Girl Who Leapt Though Time, and Wolf Children are all terrific anime films by the same director. I highly recommend all three of them.

gedren_y Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 Finally got around to seeing Rogue One. It was okay, but like 1-3 you knew where it was going. Missing Carrie Fisher. Quote

zoth33 Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 Just now, Artanis I said: Because that's not what was said. "You knew where it was going", just like episodes 1-3. sorry misread the statement. I still thought it was good. Quote

I mean...you could say that about every star wars movie, except maybe Empire Strikes back. You know the good guys are gonna win, steal the plans, blow up the death star, etc, etc, etc... Quote
Artanis I Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 In a way, yes, just like 90% of movies! Get Out - forgot what genre it was supposed to be, so I didn't exactly see what was coming, but once I realised, I did see what was coming. A lot of those "tries not to be racist, ends up being racist" moments Quote
Vindicare Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 The Mummy. Was pleasantly surprised. I knew of the reimagining of the Universal Monsters...but they really surprised me during the movie. It was better than the previews make it look. Quote
npgcole Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. Quote

Was fine apart from that though Now that I'm an adult and I know about the ingredients that are used to make The Dip, I have to say that it really is scary stuff. Quote
Evolved Turtle Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 If you're talking about the last one I've seen in a theater, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. I think as a movie it was better than the first(especially the villain, the villain was one of my favorites in the entire MCU), but I find that I enjoyed the first one more, of that makes any sense. Quote
Forresto Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 Beauty and the Beast (Live Action version) - Absolutely hated it. I've really enjoyed Disney's live action films for being just enjoyable retellings of the classics but this one just felt lifeless and devoid of character to me. The Lego Batman Movie - Absolutely love it. TLBM is hilarious and I was surprised at how well made it is. I love the real bad guys and seeing them all interact was brilliant. Quote
samurai-turtle Posted June 29, 2017 Posted June 29, 2017 Well, I got around to watching two movies (on DVD). First one Power Rangers (2017). As others might of pointed out. To much of the rangers in civilan mode and not enough of the power mode. And then their is the zords fighting, they didn't even show the forming if the mega zord. All you could see was the zords what looked like getting burned up and then next the mega zord. If I had to sum this movie up, I would say their was too much of a Bayformers influence in this movie. Then Logan, I don't want to spoil the movie for anyone. But if you want to see a X-Men movie / Western movie. This is the movie for you. (I will say I liked the comic book Easter egg they put in the movie.) Quote
BaneShake Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 Finally caught Alien: Covenant at my local second-run theater. Pretty decent; as a standalone film, it would've been a little more lacking, but as part of a long-running franchise we've already seen before, it was a fairly good expansion. Not quite enough time horror-ing and a smidgen too much time thinking out loud, if you ask me. Quote
