Some movies I've enjoyed recently - Page 17 - Nubblies.net Forums

Frank Millers Batman is fucking awesome.

Superman could still be totally badass if they gave him [almost] equally powerful villains.

Green Lanterns are allergic to yellow. Ever since I was a kid, I found that amusing.

f3lix · 06-18-2011, 08:57 AM

I saw Super 8. It was a standard Spielberg film.

thekremlin · 06-18-2011, 10:04 AM

Yeah I've always been much more of a marvel guy myself, while acknowledging that Batman was pretty much cooler than anyone. Marvel has also had much more success with the movies, X-Men movies were pretty cool and Iron Man was awesome, but then again, Batman movies have always beaten all.

Ugly Bastard · 06-18-2011, 10:06 AM

All of those comic book movies are total formulaic crap now. Hollywood realized they can make millions by just making unoriginal, uninteresting comic book movies and people will flock in droves to see them. Won't last forever though. People are starting to realize all of the recent ones are shit.

thekremlin · 06-18-2011, 10:07 AM

I really hate how right now every movie has to spend the first hour on the origin. I wonder if we'll ever get past that.

Really?

Batman & Robin

ninjaface · 06-18-2011, 06:20 PM

Maybe he meant beaten off.

Batman & Robin is considered one of the worst movies ever made. It's right up there with Plan 9 From Outer Space.

Saint DH · 06-18-2011, 10:43 PM

As one who used to love Batman, my second website was about the movie Batman and Robin. I was so terribly disappointed when I saw it in theaters.

The Green Lantern isn't that bad. It follows your superhero movie formula to a tee, but I've seen worse.

f3lix · 06-19-2011, 12:37 AM

DH, what movies do you think are good?

I recently saw 12 Angry Men. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Watched this in freshman law class in high school. First time a black and white movie ever kept my attention.

Saint DH · 06-19-2011, 11:37 AM

The Godfather pt 1 and 2 are among my all-time favorite moives. I really liked the movie Gladiator as well. Obviously I like the Dirty Harry movies. Can't think of anything else. Most movies are complete shit.

Wild Target (2010) - IMDb

A great example of quirky, British humor.

f3lix · 06-28-2011, 09:53 PM

Bad Teacher was awful. It had the structure of Family Guy, so if you like a movie which has no plot, awful transitions, and is full of one-liners and oddly placed attempts at humor, then you'll like it. I did think some of the jokes were funny and laughed quite a bit, but the movie itself was just awful.

Saint DH · 06-28-2011, 10:07 PM

So you went to see a comedy and it made you laugh a lot, but the movie was terrible?

God damnit f3lix, ARE YOU A MARTIAN?!

f3lix · 06-28-2011, 10:35 PM

I know this is a hard concept for you, DH, but there is a difference between entertainment and quality.

Beebs · 06-28-2011, 10:38 PM

Eastern Promises; about the Russian Mob (Vor v Zakone) in London, goes into depth about their tattoos, which are complex codes basically.

They look like this

The stars are basically saying you're the equivalent of a made man.

Aleks Emelianenko has very similar tats.

What the fuck did you go in there expecting?

Comic books aren't Tolstoy.

f3lix · 06-28-2011, 10:42 PM

My mother invited me. I turn her down 80% of the time, but will entertain her requests once every 2-3 months.

Beebs · 06-28-2011, 10:44 PM

Still, you obviously knew it wasn't going to be a film classic, rather that it would be a cheap comedy.

The cheap comedy made you laugh.

f3lix · 06-28-2011, 10:56 PM

A cheap comedy still doesn't have to be completely awful in every aspect non-comedic.

Ugly Bastard · 07-01-2011, 04:17 PM

I watched Kung Fu Panda last night. No bullshit, it was incredible. One of the best movies I've seen. So many awesome scenes and it was hilarious. I wish every movie-watching experience was just half this enjoyable.

Saint DH · 07-01-2011, 04:51 PM

How high was your tomato consumption before watching the movie on a scale of 1-10?

Just sayin, tomato consumption can make movies a shit ton better. I remember when I thought the new Planet of the Apes movie (w/ Mark Walberg) was the greatest movie I'd ever seen.

	The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
