Jenksismyhero Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 QUOTE (G&T @ Nov 20, 2011 -> 11:30 AM) Agree. Horrible Bosses was a mess. It had some laughs, but it wasn't great. Jennifer Aniston talking dirty and walking around naked in a lab coat made it worth it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Melancholia's very good, Lars Von Trier's best recent work by far. While it's not necessarily enjoyable, calling to mind recent movies like Rabbit Hole, Reservation Road, Blue Valentine or even Kirsten Dunst's earlier "All Good Things" with Ryan Gosling, it's definitely worth your time and has some incredible cinematography. I thought it was a much better film, for example, than The Tree of Life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve9347 Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 (edited) In a new interview with Empire, Nolan explains that the movie is “all about finishing Batman and Bruce Wayne’s story.” So much so, in fact, that Rises will feature a rather significant time jump: “Perhaps surprisingly for some people, our story picks up quite a bit later, eight years after The Dark Knight. So he’s an older Bruce Wayne; he’s not in a great state.” So I guess Batman's at least 35, could be pushing 40 depending on how old we think Bruce Wayne was in TDK. http://popwatch.ew.com/2011/11/21/dark-kni...ses-eight-year/ This should be quite epic and brings a pretty snazzy twist to the next and final Nolan Batman film.

The more I think about this the cooler it becomes. From the teaser we hear Bruce Wayne's voice in a hospital with Gordon. It's very possible that he needs to go through recovery after getting completely f***ed up by Bane (maybe back broken, don't know). Time must move quicker.

There are a couple rumors. One is that he is Falcones kid coming home to finish off what his dad started. Another is that he is a cop who is on to Batman. There is also rumor that he is the Black Mask, which could be incorporated into either of the previously mentioned theories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 I saw the descendants on Saturday. I'm going to give you a short little take: Really poorly put together beginning and a strong finish that leads me to say that I rec this movie. I liked it. I liked it even though i'm damn tired of all these hollywood movies about really rich people feeling isolated and having trouble relating to your kids. STOP WRITING WHAT YOU KNOW.

I didn't realize Kirsten Dunst was so "chesty," I'm still 50/50 on whether she had plastic surgery or not. Really hard to say definitively with her... The Charlotte Rampling character was so strong...even if her few scenes, but I'll never forget her in SWIMMING POOL...or maybe I'll never forget her younger co-star's presence in that one, not sure which.

It was better than I expected it to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Motel 8 sucked. I was done with the movie in the opening scenes where the guy takes on a freight train in a pick up truck and it doesn't explode into a million pieces and the guy survives with some cuts. Having seen what a passenger train at 55ish mph does to a pick up truck, I could never get past it. Plus the monster looked ripped straight out of Alien.

The truck thing was something I thought was absurd as well, but I liked the monster and the movie over all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
