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


Recommended Posts

Comes out today in UK, I saw a private screening at Fox this afternoon :)

 

I'm skeptical about seeing it. I don't pay attention to comic books.

 

Does it explain why he's in Japan and what not? My buddy said it's in the future after the X-Men movies.

Yeah it does and it's set after XMen: Last Stand

Oblivion, did not really care for it. mostly because i do not like tom cruise but i just thought it was boring.

 

Can I ask what you don't like about him? I think he's a pretty good actor, and knowing he was wanting to be a priest when he grew up and went this route and made a few good movies is amazing.

 

What didn't you like about Oblivion? I plan on watching it this weekend.

Probably just Tom Cruise.

Usually when i check the score of a movie Tom Cruise is playing in I add one point to the score to reflect reality. Like Born a forth of july is in fact a 8.1 quality movie on imdb scale instead of 7.1.

Redline 3/5 - Accepting the low budget, surprisingly watchable.

Gallowwalkers - Wesley Snipes reminiscing about Blade in a Wild West setting, could not finish.

Ha, ive got it downloaded. The fact that one of the posters ive seen actually says "BLADE IS BACK!!" it didnt seem like it can stand on its own 2 feet.

Rewatched 'The Silence of the Lambs' the other night and honestly had forgotten just how good the film was... utterly brilliant. I loved it. Just one of those films I couldn't imagine them making today - not for the violence but because of just how little 'action' there is and how much of a slow burner it is. 

I'm baffled. How can a fanedit be better than the original? Please don't tell me that some dude with mediocre video editing skills can do a better job than Ridley Scott, one of the world's best directors.

I'd change nothing in Prometheus. If anything, I'd make it longer and more suspenseful like the first Alien if it were up to me. To cut and edit this masterpiece is like slapping Mr. Scott's face .

Check the Changes and Reviews tabs, or better yet, give it a watch and make up your own mind.

You shouldn't be so presumptuous about peoples editing skills, or so dismissive of fan edits in general.

Zero Dark Thirty (2012)

 

3.5/5

 

I was honestly left disappointed. Not a bad docudrama but not a great movie either. How am i supposed to care about people who torture others ? I really like Bigelow but i don't know what she really wanted to do with it. There's dramatization but it's really weak with no characters dev or anything to make you care about those people who torture others for the "greater good".

 

Ted (2012)

 

3.5/5

 

I expected a little bit more but still a fun romantic comedy for men because ultimately this is what Ted really is. I did not laugh all that much but still a really fun lighthearted movie.

 

Orphan Black (2013) (TV Series)

 

3/5

 

Orphan Black is what i would call a guilty pleasure. Not a great serie and specially not a great script but the lead Tatiana Maslany is doing a really good job. Well worth a watch if you liked series like Dark Angel or Dollhouse.

Frankenstein's Army - Critical Rating 4.5/10, Personal Enjoyment Rating 8/10 :D

Gettin on that!!

I'm thinking you'll like it. :) I still haven't been brave enough to watch Pacific Rim, Transformers have turned me off to all giant robot movies. But we'll see what tomorrow brings.

Identity Thief (2013) - Watched it mainly because of Jason Bateman (loved Horrible Bosses) and it turned out to be quite funny. 4/5 

 

Wall Street : Money Never Sleeps (2010) 4/5

 

Mission Impossible : Ghost Protocol (2011) - As I pretty much always have done, when I hear a new movie in the series is coming, I watch the most recent. In this case, MI:4. Really liked this one (Simon Pegg was brilliant) 5/5.

    • Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last year, id Software released Doom: The Dark Ages as a prequel to its reboot series, offering a look at the legendary Slayer character during an ancient war between Hell and Heaven. Today, at the Xbox Games Showcase, id Software returned with a new announcement that unveiled Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations as its first story expansion. The expansion will see the Slayer being betrayed and cast into a "merciless purgatory only escapable by confronting haunting truths." Somehow, there is one ally in all this chaos seemingly attempting to help our protagonist escape his fate. Players will be ascending this prison and fighting plenty of new demons and abominations as they work to free the Slayer's followers. One new aspect of the expansion will be the Chain Spear. This new weapon is described by the studio as a "uniquely satisfying combat system that rewards mastery with a potent combination of power and mobility." Check out the trailer below to see the new weapon in action, where the Slayer is seen using it to even pin enemies to walls. id Software is also preparing a free update to all owners of Doom: The Dark Ages that will land alongside the new paid expansion. Dubbed the Ripatorium 3.0 update, this will add more customization options, an improved pass code generation system, and preset options for players diving into the game's arena challenge mode. Expansion buyers will also receive additional maps, demons, and new weapons to use in this mode in addition to the story levels. Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion is out on July 7 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $19.99 price tag. Those who own the Premium Edition or the Collector's Bundle will receive the expansion for no extra cost as well.
    • Hyped for this. Replayed the remasters recently and they're so well done, and Crash 4 was great too. I trust this team to deliver.
    • Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ninja Thery has been building its award-winning Hellblade series since 2017, delivering Senua's Sacrifice and Senua's Saga since then. Today at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, the studio had a brand-new installment announcement featuring Senua again, but this time, she is in a version of purgatory, and the focus is on the action. Simply named Senua, this new entry is described as a "full-on action-adventure" experience, delivering an expanded focus on combat, puzzle-solving, and freedom of exploration. The developer says that it is keeping the same high production values and storytelling features of the previous games while giving what players have been asking for in the gameplay department. The entirety of Ninja Theory is now working on Senua, giving the project much more manpower than ever before, while also letting the team draw on its action roots from Devil May Cry and prior titles. However, the studio also confirmed that its previously announced Project Mara horror experience is no longer in development. Alongside snappier traversal moves, Senua will be able to take stealth and direct combat routes. She has access to her own sword, plus any enemy weapons as well, with dual wielding also being an option for most dropped melee swords, axes, and other weapons. Outside of melee combat, Senua will be able to use special abilities that let her alter the reality around her. The world is said to be about twice the size of Hellblade 2. While this won't be an open-world experience, the linear story will let players explore their surroundings further than before. The story of Senua will be set after the events of previous Hellblade titles, with our protagonist being stuck in her own version of Purgatory. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well. "She’s trapped between life and death on a quest to reach the afterlife and be reunited with the ones that she’s loved and lost," adds the studio. "Her belief is that by healing the wounds of her life, she can find the peace that is the key that unlocks the gate to the afterlife." Senua is releasing on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5 sometime in 2027.
    • Windows has had it, it's called camera frame server. I recall when it was first introduced in an early Windows 10 release it caused issues and there was a registry entry to disable it. Seems like they disabled it by default at some point. Windows 11 brought that toggle to the settings app (not just registry) a while ago.
