Movies you just saw

[connor_in]

By first 3 do you mean Episodes 1-2-3??? Cause if so they will relate almost no way in all to the next trilogy. If you mean the original ones: New hope Empire, ROTJ- then they will directly tie into the new movies with the same characters and all.

I hear the new one will be a prequel to Ep 2 but a sequel to ep.9

"Here we are again bro... Just you and me. Same kind of moon same kind of jungle. Real Bond movies only, remember Dr. Kananga?... Whole platoon, 32 men chopped into meat... We walk out just you and me, nobody else. Right on top of em. Not a scratch... Not a fuckin' scratch. You know Dr. No ever got you. Those saying Live and Let Die ain't the shit will come back again. And when he does I'm gonna cut your name right into him... I'm gonna cut your name into him!"

"I ain't got time to bleed."

Checkmate.

I just saw Steve Jobs, while its a good movie I felt it was more a story about about his relationship with his daughter. All and all I'd redbox it, IMO its not worth the price of a movie ticket.

I saw "Spectre." Good, but not great. Not on par with "Casino Royale" or "Skyfall." I think that the film went on too long. That's the downside with director Sam Mendes. He has a terrific visual sense, but he has a tendency to stop and smell the roses for too long and be indulgent. I do appreciate the obvious fondness that Mendes has for the history of the movie series, but I'll be happy if he doesn't return to the franchise. I also noticed the distinct lack of really killer lines for Bond or anyone else. Nothing like "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die" or the repartee that Connery and Ursula Andress had during their first encounter. I'd like to see another good action director take a crack at it. There's talk of Christopher Nolan, which would be great. I also think John McTiernan would be a great choice.

So I heard Creed was actually good. I might have to check it out tomorrow...nah. I'll let you guys know how The Good Dinosaur is

I feel like I already saw the movie watching the theatrical trailer. But I've got a soft spot for the "Rocky" franchise so I'm pulling for it to be good.

Saw the Peanuts movie with my 6 year old. He wanted to leave halfway through, so I guess that means it was not good.

Saw Hunger Games: Mocking Jay II. It was pretty good. I never read the books but the movies are decent.

Just got done watching Southpaw a few minutes ago. It was Meh, I cant get into boxing movies where they go 12 rounds and connect on every single punch and they somehow make it 12 rounds. Story had potential but could have been better.

Saw Vacation, pretty funny.

How did you feel about Cinderella Man out of curiosity?

Creed. Outstanding movie

Yeah Creed was incredible. Best movie I've seen this year.

Just watched Hateful 8 - just what you'd expect from Quentin Tarintino. Not his best work but very solid overall. Very long - over 2.5 hours. Now I'm going to try to watch The Revenant before I go to work. Looks very good, we'll see.

Do you have screeners or something?

Also, I have tickets to see The Hateful Eight in 70 mm next week. I'm pretty excited about that.

You mind shooting me a PM and letting me know how your getting all these great movies so early?

Just a website that occasionally gets screeners. They aren't taking new subscribers right now but I'll post a new thread someday if they do.

You're on the darkside of the interwebs... arent you...

I used to have a buddy that would get the video copies for home distribution about the time the items came into theaters...was weird to watch a film with not for sale or rent across the bottom of the screen for the whole movie...

he worked for the company that distributed the videoes

Forgive my ignorance, but allow me to use you as Google and ask what 70mm means in terms of the film. Is it better? More original feel?

Damn it man, I'm not a scientist!

Sorry for the late response. 5 Reasons You Should See ‘The Hateful Eight’ In 70mm | Cool Material

That should give you an idea of what the 70mm format will do for the film. And it really is a film; Tarantino refuses to direct in digital (at least I believe he still holds to that, regardless The Hateful 8 is all film). Think epic in scale. When you see The Hateful Eight, it'll be reminiscent of Ben-Hur etc in the format. In fact, Tarantino confirmed that he used the same lenses to create his work that were used on Ben-Hur.

I saw Creed and it is amazing. Highly highly highly recommend

LOLLLLLLLL... don't need to go darkside. a google search on xxxxmovie "putlocker" will yield whatever you want to see. might have to do a little digging, or put up with less than HD quality, but it's all there for the watching. one of my employees watched Star Wars 7, and Revenant last night (flipped it from Iphone to Apple TV). He gave me the site (haven't tried it yet). PM me if you want it. Said he wished he wouldn't have watched SW7 like that (going to go to the theater this weekend), but was more than happy with the quality, or overall experience of Revenant.

Just watched Beasts of No Nation. Intense look at the horror of war. Particularly multidimensional, complex conflicts over natural resources, tribal hatreds, and colonial legacies like we see in the Congo (not the setting of the movie but a similar dynamic.) Some tough scenes to watch in this one. Good performance by Idris Elba and the kid who plays the main character. Well worth a watch.

In a completely different vein watched Jurassic World last night. Pretty awful movie. Also watched Hotel Transylvania 2 which was pretty entertaining for a kids movie sequel.

Hateful Eight 70mm roadshow. I love Tarantino so I was bound to like it but it was really well done. Im curious to see it on DVD to see the difference in the two versions. The cast did a great job and some fantastic dialogue for a movie that ran for over three hours it did not feel nearly that long.

I'd love to see the 70mm version just to see the difference, but the closest theater showing the 70mm version is 5 hours away. Bummer.

 

[blueNDgold44]

Creed and Southpaw the last 2 nights, both were phenomenal. Has anyone seen anything about possible sequels?

 

[arrowryan]

Really looking forward to seeing Hateful Eight and The Revenant. The Revenant is shaping up to be one of DiCaprio's best performances yet.

Creed was co-written by a kid from my hometown in Indiana.

I figured it was a 100% Sly concept but two college buddies wrote it and presented it to Stallone and it went from there.

Very interesting story.

Covington's 'Creed' - TheNewsDispatch.com: News

The bad news.... he's an Ohio State grad and met the other writer at SC in grad school. Ewww.

Yeah but Creed is still fantastic

In spite of it all.

I'm boycotting till Redbox. He can use his cut of the $1 to pay off those student loans.
