I Just Watched...

Well, the most recent movie I saw was an 1999 remake "Anna and the King".
It had one of my favorite actors in it, Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy on HP -- as some may know him by.) I'd love for him to join and I know he would... he is just one of those charitable guys.
I did have a personal way of contacting him, but I am not able to now...I'd have to talk to his agent.
If I ever get the chance of getting in touch with him I will let him know of the idea.
XD

i just saw Kung Fu Panda over the weekend. it was co-directed by Mark Osbourne, our producer #45!

Mark was my stop-mo professor at CalArts, and was at the animation event, so he helped paint a few of the frames of our film :)

If you have yet to see Mark's stop-mo indie short "More"- it's a mini-masterpiece. You can watch it here:

The last movie i saw was "Child's Play 3",It was on at 2:00 am this morning so i DVRed it. I give it a 6/10

The last movie i saw was, Kalifornia

possibly the strangest brad pitt movie i have ever seen.

I just saw the director's commentary on DVD. This movie is AMAZING! also found out that the DVD was produced by John Bernstein, old skool producer #849!

"The Dark Knight".
Truly an awsome movie. Heath Ledger's Joker was the strangest and most terrifying I have ever seen. I realize now what a terrible loss his death was. The man had incredible talent.
The Music was stirring too, from the very first. The Joker has his own "Theme" which grew gradually louder as the threat level went up. That music not only made the hair on the back of my neck stand up, it made my fillings tingle.
Harvey "Two Face" Dent was indeed Gotham's golden boy, but was easily corruptable which became apparent as he bent to less than noble means to question one of the Joker's henchmen.
Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne/Batman: Haunted at first by the tragic murder of his parents, then by Gotham's Criminal Element, the pure unadulterated evil of the psychopathic Joker and finally, by the shadow of the Batman himself.
This movie is truly a work of art.

About batman -
I have to agree with you there Captain Kundalini.
throughout the entire movie i couldn't help but think about the fact that heath is actually gone, it Defiantly made the movie, but in a way also took away from the other aspects.

I would love to hear from someone who didn't know heath had passed away and to hear what kind of experience they had watching the movie.

Last night

I saw "the mist" directed by Frank Darabont but based on the novel written by Stephen King.

"A freak storm unleashes a species of blood-thirsty creatures on a small town, where a small band of citizens hole-up in a supermarket and fight for their lives."

I don't know about you but when i was a kid the supermarket sounded like the best place to be stuck.

The one good thing i can say for this movie is that when people died.. they at least had a normal reaction. Generally when people die in films the directors don't focus on the emotion for very long (especially in horror films) It's more like stop drop and run.

it did have its good parts, which made you want to strangle some of the people and fight for others (interaction with the actors is a good sign :p)

If you've seen any movies based on Stephen King's novels then you know you're in for a weird trip.

the ending was a let down but i couldn't see any other way of ending it without it being completely cheesy *humans over-come alien thingys and are the only ones left standing*

** that didn't happen lol.

Also, after being horrified we went on line to find some comedians on you tube

Dane Cook is hilarious! Everyone should check him out.

Wow.. Too early for such long comments!

Peace, Tam

The Dark Knight - 10/10
Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D - 8/10

The Dark Knight 10/10
Pineapple Express 9/10 (It seemed to drag on and on)
Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D 8/10
What Happens in Vegas 6/10 (Better than I thought it would be)
The Mummy 3...it was so terrible that you couldn't even place it on a scale!

I know I've seen more I just can't think of them.

Last night I saw an outdoor screening of Withnail & I:
http://www.imdb.com/tit...

I've never seen anything quite like it. The sense of humor was very original and very odd. Makes sense that it was the work of a single writer/director. Sometimes it felt a bit like a play, but that didn't bother me.

Has anyone seen this? If not, check it out!

Haven't seen that one, an outside screening sounds interesting! we don't have any of those here hah.

Richard E. Grant is a great actor.

really liked him in "Jack and Sarah"

http://www.imdb.com/tit...

I just watched.. lastnight.

Forgetting Sarah Marhsall: http://www.imdb.com/tit...

At first I thought it was just another generic stoner-comedy
but after about the first 1/3 it started to have some really funny lines and made it worth while.
So overall I give it 6/10 if we were keeping score.
Too tired to do a full review ;p

The one thing I think about public cinemas is that when the people in there with you don't laugh it makes the movie seem less funny, does anyone else find that?

Caught a really great french thriller called Tell No One (Ne le dis a personne). I guess it was a 'romantic' thriller?

Kind of an interesting mix of genres, with some pretty original pacing and twists. The performances were also really solid.

It was written and directed by Guillaume Canet, a french actor who has been in a few US movies as well. I'm gonna have to watch some of his other flicks.

See if you can find it in a theater. Otherwise, I think the DVD comes out in a few months. Tell No One :)

I'll check that out!
I liked the movie Paris, J'taime! Very good movie!
And at the theaters where I am at...usualy where someone says something not funny there is always one person who laughs VERY loudly and everyone turns and looks at them...I've had that happen several times. Just recently there was a woman who was laughing like a witch purposely at all the funny parts and ppl were laughing at her lmao.

Since we're on the topic..

best movies i've been with subtitles -

Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain, Le. better known as Amelie lol
http://www.imdb.com/tit...

And Vita è bella, La. English - Life is beautiful

both really great movies! "Amelie" is really quirky and different i've seen it about 5 times now.
and "life is beautiful" is one you have to watch, it's about how a father protects his son from the reality of the german war, it starts off as a romantic comedy and then slides into the war with some really funny bits in the romantic comedy side.

http://www.imdb.com/tit...

Oh, And run lola run http://www.imdb.com/tit...

I'm about to run..So i can't explain it :) but it's a good movie.

I saw Alien vs. Predator A Few Days Ago.

I just saw a really powerful documentary the other night called Flow: http://flowthefilm.com/

This film explores the World Water Crisis. It's a really important topic. The film premiered at Sundance and was Executive Produced by Stephen Nemeth, one of our Board of Directors for the Collaboration Foundation.

Look for FLOW to be released theatrically in the next few months, and then on DVD.

Also, please take a second to sign and spread their petition to add Article 31 to the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights, establishing access to clean water as a fundamental human right.

sign the petition here

Let me know if you get a chance to see this film, I'd love to hear your alls thoughts.

I just saw a really powerful documentary also

Up the Yangtze
http://www.imdb.com/tit...

with the hamilton international film festival.

We took our chinese student along, who said that he would never see that kind of film in china simply because they ban them from the public so it was interesting to see what he thought of it.

It really pulled our heart strings and made you think about the impact modern society is having on people who still live in poverty.

a must, must see film.

It's amazing the quality films that come out of film festivals. I haven't seen many of the others but am planning on seeing "be kind rewind" with jack black.

Watched Man on Wire the other day. Absolutely amazing documentary...

http://www.manonwire.co...

The 4rth Season Premier of "Ghost Whisperer".
I had my doubts about Jamie Kennedy being on the show,
but I think he just might work.
Sorry to see Professor Payne (Jay Mohr) go, though.
And I have heard a rumor that Jim Clancy (Melinda's husband, played by David Conrad) might get killed this season.

The Gift http://www.imdb.com/tit...

Argh, another to add to my list of favorite movies so far.

Last night probably would have been the fifth time I've seen the film, and only the fifth time I noticed that Billy Bob Thornton and Tom Epperson where the writers!

My family and I where talking about the fact that there are just so many amazing actors/actresses in this movie which is cool, Among them my favorite character is played by Giovanni Ribisi if you've seen the movie you know what role he plays and you'd think I'm nuts for saying he was my favorite, but he just does a crazy good job of his role.

Cate Blanchett does a great job, and Keanu Reeves does a good job of scaring most people.

My favorite part is too hard to explain so unless you see the movie with me you'll only have to guess :P

Talking about it makes me want to watch it again, so if you haven't seen it, do it!
