Question

The Official Films Thread

Well bollocks, we've got a telly thread so I thought I'd create one for films too.

I'm currently working my way through Movies With A Twist Collection 3 which I downloaded years ago from TPB. All of those torrents are now dead which is a shame because I didn't get around to downloading Collection 4. I'm downloading all of those separately which is a hassle but will be worth it in the end going by 1-3 so far.

Am in the middle of watching Law Abiding Citizen, I think I've seen it before but i was so long ago I've forgotten what happens.

The problem with watching these films knowing that there's a twist makes it easy to work out what the twist in question is so probably better if you watch them without that knowledge lol

Here's a list of some of my all-time favourite films of all-time in no particular order:

Brazil
The Life Of Brian
The Holy Grail
The Meaning Of Life
Star Wars
The Empire Strikes Back
Lifeforce (a terrible film but the female lead vampire spends most of it naked lol)
All Lethal Weapons
All Die Hards
Every Dirty Harry Film
The Jungle Book (the Disney original)
Pi
Falling Down (just for the McDonalds scene lmfao)
Silent Running
Logan's Run
All 60s-70s Planet Of The Apes
Soylent Green

Am going to stop there otherwise this post is going to be HUGE lol

      I watched The Basement on Netflix yesterday and it was pretty good but a bit too predictable. Worth watching though. Quite a clever idea but I'm pretty sure I've seen a similar idea in a film before.

      Same goes for The Lazarus Effect too. I'm pretty sure I've seen the same sort of idea in another film. The Lazarus Effect was quite slow to get going but worth sticking with it.

      I have to be careful when I read your posts in this thread in case you give the plot away :p

      Went to see Captain Marvel. Not that good. It seemed boring and all over the place. Sure it had its funny parts and explained a few things but otherwise something about it seemed rather BLA.

      Oh yeah, that's the other marvel one I haven't seen yet.
      Of course the best super hero movie of all is Hentai Kamen. :)


      I just finished watching Stalker.
      Yeah, definitely a very different experience to the first time, I appreciate it more now.
      So many great LONG takes with slowly panning or zooming cameras. Don't watch if you are impatient.
      Fascinating movie if you give it a chance.

      I just finished Season 1 of Black Summer on Netflix. A new zombie show that is very very good! It is more like the 28 Days later zombies, and focuses on violence and murder. Highly recommended.

      Next movie on my list - I'd like the steelbook edition, but this seem extremely expensive (even if it's 4K + 3D) - is the disc made of gold? - Did Jesus touch and bless the disc? 



      I hope the price will come down after the movie is released April 22... 

      Or Black Summer it is - I'm slightly getting tired of zombie movies - or movies where the main characters can't talk - or can't see, but if Zenbane says Black Summer is good... - I did see the trailer last night, but ended up watching Maddie, which was kinda boring - I'm pretty sure she won't be found in S1E8 ;-)

      I watched all of black Summer in one sitting. Started and ended in the same day. I couldn't pull myself away.

      It isn't a film though, it's a TV series. Zombane posted in the wrong thread  :p

      Now this is what I call a Zombie series. I'm only on episode 2, but I understand why you watched them all in one day. This kept me up until 2 am watching this and I think I'll watch as much as I can come Sunday. Best series I've seen for a long time.

      Saw the first episode of Black Summer last night - it was ok, RedRizla seems to have enjoyed it more than I did, I'll give it another shot later tonight  :)

      Also just bought this movie - found it for 8 bucks - it's the highest-grossing anime film of all time worldwide - and 8.4 on IMDB. Have had it in MKV for years, just never got to watch it and thought I better support the industry  o:) (and my TV's processors need a lot of data to work with  B) )

       
      The movie is part of my recovery proces after The House That Jack Built :D
