40Cent @ the movies

I don't require emotion to get jiggy with it.

Of course not, you're a guy.

[Gusington]

I mean in the female subject I am getting jiggy with too.

I see the rage, but not the indignation

the fire in the background helps.

Is a pulse required? (Just sayin')

[Gusington]

No.

I think you're getting a little too into the whole vampire thing.

^That's what the undead corpse said!

[Silent Disapproval Robot]

Hooking it up to a car battery to make it twitch doesn't make it undead.


Or so the stupid judge who says I have to stay 200m away from the mortuary would have me believe.

Okay, finally saw Prometheus last night and I must say that I have mixed feelings about the film.  For the most part, it was really enjoyable.  But there were some aspects of the plot/script that were, IMHO, ridiculous.  I'll save those comments for the Prometheus thread and not lay-out any spoilers here.  The 'bad' aspects didn't ruin the movie, as a whole, but the movie could have been better.  I'd still say that it is worth the price of admission.

I watched Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy Last night.  It was great to see a film with subtlety and nuance.  Onethat credits you with a bit of intelligence and asks you to do a little thinking in order to follow along.  I'm getting kinda bored with the current crop of big budget flicks that are all designed to have the simplest of storylines that are devoid of all cultural references in order to make them easily understood by all audiences worldwide.

Loved the period look of the film and just how run down and depressing they made not only Communist Europe look, but also the UK.  I thought Gary Oldman did a great job even though I think he was not the right choice to play George Smiley.  I'm a big fan of LeCarre's novels and Oldman just didn't look right. 

Anyway, good film.

The Mrs and I went to see Snow White and the Huntsman last night.  The Snow White with Horseface was a lot better.  This one had really good moments and really, really terrible moments.  It was like it was made by 2 different people; one competent film-maker and one not.

The pale chick from Twilight really does have no range as an actress.

<sigh> this could have been a great movie, but it was not.

40Cent, you are far more generous than I. 


I just saw this last night.  If I were feeling charitable, I would perhaps give it an 18 out of 40.  However, currently I'm *not* feeling charitable, and so I give it a 12. 

Charlize Theron's performance as the evil queen was really the only thing that saved this movie from being a complete wreck.  Even Chris Hemsworth's performance as the Huntsman was wooden, which came as an unpleasant surprise.  (On the other hand, he *was* performing opposite Stewart, so perhaps he just naturally responded to her utter lack of emotional range and general acting ability...)  I actually had a lot more empathy for Theron's character than for Stewart's (which was none).
