What was the last movie you watched? (2013 Edition)


Recommended Posts

Avatar 3D.

I watched it originally in 2D. Got the 3D blu-ray last year and took all this time to get round to watching it.

Made me not completely regret my purchase of a 3D TV :laugh:

Best thing i've seen in 3D since Sky Sports Darts coverage :laugh:

Well the last one I watched was "A Haunted House". Absolutely stupid. Almost turned it off a few times, but figured I might as well finish it. 1/5

Just before that I watched "Dredd" in 3D. Was pretty good. 4/5

Expected more. I love Cronemberg.

It's a excellent adaptation from the book, everything is spot on. However this does not translate as well since what it feels like stoicism and detachment in the book feels like numbness in the movie. However the style and the dialogs are well preserved and executed.

Watched the documentary Sound City last night. I had preordered it for $10, so got the DRM free digital download once it was released this past Thursday I think it was.

Very good documentary about the making of Rock N Roll music. Very well done all around.

Oh, I also went to go see Mama in the theaters on Thursday night. I was in San Jose CA on a business related trip, could not sleep due to the time difference, so decided to go on my own and check out a movie in the theater.

What a really bad movie. Bad thing is it had some genuinely good, creepy moments, but the parts that people were literally LOL'ing when they were not supposed to be doing so ruined the whole flick. It tried way to hard to be serious and just came off as being a joke. The ending was about as cliche of a horror movie ending as one can get as well. Avoid at all costs.

Bully - 4/5

Tough to watch this as a human being, but even tougher as a parent. Sad to see the actions of kids can result in an 11 year old killing themselves. I know everyone has their own views on suicide but at such a young age I feel like it could have been prevented. Very emotional movie/docu to watch, I'd almost even be on board with this been shown in school as a requirement.

Silver Linings Playbook - 4.5

Watched this one after watching Bully because I didnt want to goto bed being depressed. Really enjoyed this movie and was shocked at Cooper's performance (as I dont think Ive seen him in a serious role prior to this). Jennifer Lawrence was also great.. also being an Eagles fan it was great to see those parts in the movie.

Highly recommend both movies.

    • No updated SSD capacity, no updated specs (not surprised tbf), just nostalgia baiting! Bring back the boot sequence and the UI as an easter egg!
    • Why? It will just cost so much more and make you PC poor and they become PC rich off your calamities! “Just because you can” isn’t a flex either!.
    • Microsoft confirms a new, useful Teams' app is coming very soon by Sayan Sen In the modern digital workspace meeting recordings and summaries are very commonplace, still finding the right recap later can be surprisingly difficult. To address that inconvenience Microsoft is working on a new dedicated meeting recap application designed to bring all meeting recaps into a single, centralized location. In a recent announcement on its Microsoft 365 roadmap website, the company has confirmed the new applet and has explained how the new experience will work and why it believes it can help users stay on top of discussions without having to search through multiple chats, calendars, or files. For those unfamiliar, meeting recaps provide a summary of key discussions, decisions, action items, and other relevant information generated after a meeting ends. They are intended to help participants revisit important points while also allowing those who missed the meeting to quickly catch up on what happened. Traditionally locating older recaps could require users to navigate through various conversations or meeting histories. The new meeting recap app aims to simplify that process by gathering all available recaps into one dedicated hub. According to Microsoft, this should make it easier to browse past meetings, review outcomes, and stay informed about ongoing projects and discussions. One notable feature of the applet is the addition of quick filters which are meant to allow users to instantly narrow down the list of available recaps and surface specific meetings without manually searching through extensive records. Audio recap is also there. If you're wondering how long these recaps will last before self-expiring, the app will provide access to meeting recaps from the past 30 days or approximately one month. You can view the feature entry here on the official Microsoft 365 (M365) website under roadmap ID 564614. Its rollout is set to begin this month (June 2026). Do keep in mind though that new feature rollouts often get delayed.
    • Does it have couch co-op is the question I have here.
