Recommended Posts

Incredibly touching movie with Jared Leto  pretty much clinching an Oscar win.

Dallas Buyers Club I presume. Please write the names also because images are sometimes broken and it's not always easy to guess.

 

Possession - not sure what to make of it: ridiculous characters, overacting, tentacle monster sex and I can't stop staring at Isabelle Adjani's beautiful face.

12 Years a Slave - 7/10 - Decent overall, sends a strong message but some scenes were unnecessary.

$50K and a call girl - 6/10 - I went into it fairly hyped. It was kind of boring even giving the content.

Top Gear Vietnam Special - 8.5/10 - This rating is based entirely on Top Gear specials and not movies in general. This is a great one!

Wolf of Wall Street - 9.5/10 - Damn, this was good. Really good. Really damn good.

Her - 6/10 - Meh. I wish my OS could do that, but the movie was boring.

American Hustle - 1/10 - Seriously? I didn't even go into this knowing about the oscar hypetrain. It was terrible. Just terrible.

What's your rating? Sasha Grey is in it, so I'll probably watch it, ha.

 

It's hard for me to rate it. It's a sick movie (0/10). You will feel worse after watching it. There's no happy end there. So I'll give it 5/10 for graphic portrayal of gore. It's mild in this movie when compared to the gore depicted in the Saw franchise for example.

The GodFather is an excellent movie, with a raiting of 9.2 on IMDb, and is one of my favorite types of movie...action-crime based! 

 

       the-godfather-.jpgPesonally, it's a 10/10 movie! If you didn't watch it by now,I already did when I was smaller, go watch it!

Can you explain without spoilers?   How 12 Years even remotely related to Inception?

 

Hans Zimmer seems to have "reused" some parts of the Inception score (and others). The movie is still great.

Happy endings don't exist in films inspired by the French Extreme Horror genre :)

Last Vegas   5/10           (Michael Douglas and Robert De Niro - old men party) funny at times but nothing special

Stand Up Guys 8/10       (Al Pacino and Christofer Walken - old men party)    much better then Last Vegas

American Hustle - 1/10 - Seriously? I didn't even go into this knowing about the oscar hypetrain. It was terrible. Just terrible.

 

 

Why? I only watched first 45 minutes, before I have to leave and meet someone, but I was really looking forward to finishing it soon.   first 45 minutes were very entertaining.

However, a girl I know did not like it either (though she did not hate it as much as you... seriously 1/10???   Come on!)

She suggested I watch a much better (in her opinion) Gangster Squad instead.

Ryan Gosling effect. She has a terrible taste in movies. It's like L.A. Confidential, but without the good parts and lots of eye candy thrown in (Emma Stone :wub: )

 

I'm going to watch American Hustle this sunday. Really looking forward to it.

People kept expecting it to work like any other con movie and miss all the great things that are going on while the con is on. Did not disappoint at all. Very good movie and worthy of its nominations.

The Wolf of Wallstreet

A great film, in my opinion. Despite it's runtime I was fixated and enjoyed every bit of it. And Margot Robbie...wow. Here's hoping we see more of her in the cinema. :blushing:

9/10

Unthinkable

Another good film. Having already seen it a while back, S.L.J's character still really threw me, and I was again left with certain moral questions when it was finished.

7/10

    • 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.
    • You didn't like Mafia The Definite Edition? As a fan of the first when it came out, I liked that remake.
