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


Recommended Posts

Both as a movie admirer and as a teacher I must say that few films have moved with such power. A near flawless meditation on the education system and the flawed but -most of the times- committed individuals that work on it.

Whoa a solid cast, might have to catch this

Do that, first time I see Lucy Liu acting -like, really acting-. The only bad thing is that Craston appears for about only two minutes.

Bounty Killer

 

The single most stupid movie I've seen so far (holding Machete Kills as I haven't seen it yet)

Terrible acting, absolute crap for a storyline, green screen effects substandard.

 

I LOVED IT :p

Now I have to see this! It must be like in those spaghetti westerns how what we'd call 'bounty hunters' were always called 'bounty killers', which is probably more accurate.

I really enjoyed this, Sam Rockwell gives a great performance and is perfect as this character.  Allison janey is also a crackup as comedic relief in the film.  Interesting to see Steve Carell play the bastard.  This has a kind of Adventureland vibe to it but much better although I would have to say Adventureland had a better soundtrack throughout the film.

Best haunted house film I have seen in a long while, tension build up and execution were all very well done.  No gore, no torture porn just good old fashioned demonic hijinx.

Yeah didn't think much of this, kind of like twilight with a hotter lead actress who has a range of emotions greater than sour and sad and somewhat better action sequences.

None of your images are showing.  At least I can't see them.

I think it would be fairer to say it leans more towards a 'Mad Max' style of movie than a spaghetti western. With dark humour :)

I also just watched this, 8/10. Very powerful and emotional film. Loved it. I also agree about the Cranston Cameo.. it wasn't really needed IMO.

Thanks, it looks good. I liked the Mad Max films. The reviews for this look quite good, at least in terms of my sort of film!

Its been mentioned before that Malwarebytes has a block on some image sites, if that helps.

 

Not using Malwarebytes, thanks for the info though.   The image links show in the quote and when I copy the links into their own browser window they are viewable.  I don't block anything on Neowin.  I didn't think IMDB or Fanpop allowed image linking.

 

 

P.S.  Now they are showing after a few refreshes, weird.  :huh:

Monsters University  - 6.5 / 10 - It was a bit boring, not bad though.

The way, Way Back - 6 / 10 - I enjoyed Sam Rockwell's character but everything else reminded me of just watching real life, which was technically quite good, but not why I watch movies.

    • It won't perform hugely better than the 3080 unless you're VRAM limited in games. Have you tried putting new thermal pads on them 3080 and giving it a good clean to see if you can regain your temps and overclock?
    • Windows 95 offered the ability to add and edit the right click menus, on a per file type basis. This feature seems to be missing in the new file explorer. Are they bringing it back as a "new" feature?
    • It's nearly time to replace my aging Founders Edition 3080, it doesn't OC as nicely as it used to and it's running around 10c warmer than it did when I first bought it.  I don't have budget for much more than what I spent on the 3080 and locally, that means the best GPU I can manage is a 9070XT. On this basis I have a few questions: 1. At present I don't use ray tracing, if this was to change, would this GPU be an issue? 2. How does it compare on a performance basis? 3. Are the drivers worse or better than those for nVidia? 4. Linux support, is it there? 5. Anything else I should be aware of if I were to make this change? 6. Is it a good idea or shall I try and keep the 3080 a little longer.
    • What OS is that? It looks a bit like Mac OS but the command line suggests it isn't, either way I like it!
