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.

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.

    • They couldn't have done a better job, this is beautiful!
    • Oh, of course not. The real "victims" are the people who snipe kids in the head, have killed more journalist than all the worlds wars combined, do double tap strikes on medical personnel, claim history started on October 7th, have a $700 million dollar annual Hasbara budget and pay influencers $7k a post to spout exactly this kind of propaganda. How dare you question the most moral army in the world. Victimhood belongs to these genocidal freaks alone. Anyone who denies that is literally Hitler. If you're going to support a terrorist state, the least you could do is come up with better talking points.
    • Gears of War: E-Day brings 12-player co-op, smoother traversal mechanics, and more by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Right as the Xbox Games Showcase came to an end today, The Gears of War developer The Coalition took over to show off its next project: E-Day. This prequel project was announced back in 2024, but now we have a lot more details about its campaign, new gameplay mechanics, and even a release date. The studio says this is the first time it has managed to get the time to build the entire game in a new engine, as it had worked non-stop on new titles for years while porting classic code and assets. With Unreal Engine 5 now powering Gears of War: E-Day, The Coalition says it started completely anew, with all assets, animations, environments, and others being built from scratch. The campaign will take place across three days in the city of Kalona. The story will follow the events through the eyes of Bravo Squad. This is made up of the returning classic duo Marcus and Dom, as well as the new characters Mags Carter and Lucas Reyes. Watch the trailer below to see Marcus in action without his iconic armor and gear, just as the Locust invasion kicks off. The story will draw on classic Gears novels like Aspho Fields as well, with the studio even collaborating with author Karen Traviss. "That continuity is what makes the destruction land," says the studio. "In E-Day, you watch a living city torn apart—homes still lit, meals half-finished—while people abandon their cars and run for cover. Small details—a child’s toy, an uneaten dinner—make the loss real as everyday places collapse under the Locust assault." The movement system is getting a big overhaul here. Players will be able to slide while running, jump across gaps, climb head-height covers, and even crawl on the ground to avoid fire from enemies. As for the returning horde mode, The Coalition teased a new 12-player PvE mode. This will involve three squads of Gears going up against the incoming Locusts in larger city maps than usual. The studio says that it is going to reimagine the classic formula just as co-op games are going through a resurgence. Multiplayer was touched on today too, where Versus is coming back touting four versus four Gears PVP action set across Kalona maps. More details about multiplayer will be revealed later. Open beta weekends are kicking off this August for fans wanting to jump in early too. Gears of War: E-Day is releasing on Xbox Series X|S and PC on October 6 with pre-orders available now. It will also be a part of Xbox Game Pass on day one. Microsoft has confirmed this as an Xbox platform exclusive, as there are no plans to bring it to PlayStation or Switch.
    • Microsoft announces the return of Xbox exclusives with Gears of War and Clockwork Revolution by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft had plenty of announcements to make today at the Xbox Games Showcase celebrating 25 years of the gaming brand. Now, under the leadership of the new Xbox CEO Asha Sharma, Xbox games are going back to their original release methods. She appeared in the livestream itself to announce the return of Xbox console exclusives. This means two major upcoming games from first-party studios won't be coming to PlayStation or Nintendo consoles: Gears of War: E-Day from The Coalition and Clockwork Revolution from InExile. Both titles will only be coming out on Xbox Series X|S consoles and Windows PCs, ditching any plans they had for PlayStation. "These are not timed exclusives," confirmed Microsoft. "We’re committed to investing in and growing XBOX both on console and beyond." The company confirmed that any already announced Xbox titles for PlayStation, under previous leadership, will continue to arrive for the rival platform. This means games like the new Halo remake, Forza Horizon 6, Fable, and State of Decay 3 will still be available on PlayStation, either at launch or later. It sounds like any new projects announced by the company will avoid other consoles in the same way. Microsoft first opened the floodgates by bringing titles like Sea of Thieves, Grounded, Hi-Fi Rush, and Pentiment to PlayStation and Nintendo consoles back in 2024. Since then, almost every new game release from Xbox Game Studios has arrived for rival consoles alongside Xbox and PC. This decision follows Sony's plans to ditch its own multiplatform releases too. Outside of multiplatform live service titles, the PlayStation maker is even abandoning its PC porting endeavors that started years ago.
