HAPPY NEW YEAR, PEOPLE!!

@ Eurphoria:

Advent Children's a 3D animé that's the isht. Suberp graphics (utterly life-like), superb storyline, and ish. It's prequel, The Spirits Within had great CGI as well, but storyline sucked and was kinda below par.
Now about u descending on me, do quick now!! cheesy

@ gamine:

umm. . . What do you mean by my lack of knowledge? Spirits Within came out before Advent Children and so bo that i called it a prequel to it. aight, G knows, the storylines are entirely different but aren't there movies with diff. Parts and diff. storylines with diff. new characters? Even taking it to the games, every FF game that came out had new storylines, new characters and sh*t (except FF X and X2). so you see what i mean?

Besides, i hate the games. Why? Because of their stupid gameplays (esp. the fight scenes with entities and baddies). I hate that slash first-wait for opponent to slash-and then hack again Bullshit.

Other than that, the CGI's the BOMB!!!
Re: Movie Recommendation Thread by TerraCotta(m): 9:00pm On Jan 02, 2007

Korean director Park Chan Wook, Old boy, Sympathy for Lady Vengeance--- quite violent, but stylized and very mesmerizing. Tarantino copies him
French films-- District B13, L'auberge espanole someone mentioned La Haine, but check out other films from the director Mathieu Kassovitz, don't remember offhand, if you like Count of Monte Cristo check out the french version with Gerard Depardieu, long but worth it, Cache etc,
Spanish: y tu mama tambien, Maria full of Grace, Motorcycle Diaries, habla con ella
City of God--- great Brazilian film

I could go onnn, new favourites, Little Miss Sunshine, absolutely delightful, haven't seen The Departed or Babel but heard good things about it, Casino Royale is yummy

Okay--this Park Chan Wook guy must be worth checking out, considering the calibre of people recommending him. I own one of those Yamakasi parkour films and I'm crazy about the parkour stuff--I was telling my brother that the sequence in Casino Royale is nothing compared to watching really good traceurs go at it in some of these other movies. Haven't seen Banlieu 13 though. Thumbs up to Y Tu Mama Tambien and Maria Full of Grace. Pedro Almodovar gets the thumbs up too, although I thought Volver was a little overrated. See The Departed! Even though it's a remake of Infernal Affairs (Hong Kong film), you'll like it--sharp script, great performances all around (except Nicholson's a bit too over the top sometimes) and an original setting with the whole Boston Irish gangsters thing. I liked Casino Royale too and I think Daniel Craig makes the movie--"Layer Cake" is probably the best British film I've seen in a couple of years; better than "Lock, Stock", "Snatch", and even "Sexy Beast", which I liked.

Other recent non-Hollywood recommendations: "Together"/Tilsammans, a great Danish film that got a lot of press in Europe but didn't do so well in the States; "To The Left of the Father" (thoughtful stuff about incest in rural Brazil) and "Madame Sata" (gay capoeira street fighters--can't beat it!); The Dreamers (also has a bit of an incest theme, but set in 1960s Paris during the Commune riots); "Le Placard", which is a pretty funny French comedy that might be remade in the States as "The Closet", and "Housekeeper", which is a good film with a so-so ending.
Re: Movie Recommendation Thread by soliq55(m): 2:36am On Jan 03, 2007
Check out "Hard boiled" directed by John Woo,

I think this is da best action movie of all time,
Re: Movie Recommendation Thread by Owoayo(m): 2:41am On Jan 03, 2007
Hard Boiled is a great movie,

Lots of shooting and Lots of Blood


Two Thumbs UP
Re: Movie Recommendation Thread by gbadex1(m): 1:40pm On Jan 03, 2007
. . .and lots of guts spilling!!

Snatch was a good movie. Sh*t was truly hilarious.

I also recommend "The Manchurian Candidate" and "Training Day", two good Denzel movies. Inside Man was also the sh*t.

"Click" was also hilarious. And also "Good Fellas", movie's old but still is the sh*t.
Re: Movie Recommendation Thread by Gamine(f): 1:12pm On Jan 04, 2007
ya i luved Goodfellas, i watched it alot, cool but i recommend CRasH for evryone wink
Re: Movie Recommendation Thread by phoenixman: 2:14pm On Jan 04, 2007

Re: Movie Recommendation Thread by Boluwaduro(f): 2:11am On Jan 05, 2007
Hello all!

I recommend "Playing Games" (Nigerian movie). It's one cool movie with good actors and actresses, that was well acted.

check it out
grin
Re: Movie Recommendation Thread by phoenixman: 5:27am On Jan 05, 2007

Re: Movie Recommendation Thread by gbadex1(m): 9:51am On Jan 05, 2007

Good times are indeed coming. . .

Hell, we can as well say the same for Shawshank. . . .err sorry, NutSack Redemption.
Re: Movie Recommendation Thread by tayoccu(m): 11:21am On Jan 05, 2007
Usual suspects, it's an old movie(1995/96),but you'll love it.

Re: Movie Recommendation Thread by ThiefOfHearts(f): 4:15pm On Jan 05, 2007
are you minding gbade? Have you seen the movies he has listed. If anything he should be banned from suggesting anymore stuff.

Crash is not up to 1/10th the greatness of Shawnshank Redemption.

pretentious bullshit. Look at me, when I cover my dad with my juju cloak, he didnt die! yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

My Hispanic housemaid took care of me when I fell down the stairs. I am no longer racist, I LOVE ALL LATINOS NOW!!!

My name is Ludacris aka Hypocris and I used to be all gangsta until this random guy that couldnt even fight for his wife's honor yelled at me and then I decided to help these illegal immigrants I found in a van cos Im now a good gangsta, YAY FOR CHANGE.

My hispanic girlfriend hates me cos I called her mexican instead of colombian. I am ashamed for not knowing the differences. YAY

Bleep that stupid idiotic movie.
Re: Movie Recommendation Thread by Gamine(f): 4:41pm On Jan 05, 2007
Lawd hav mercy @ Thiefofhearts
u dnt hVTa swear, the thingy i expect u to get frm the movie is the way the plot was being arranged, and how the whole thing was interwoven

Ok i recommend, The Godfather , Anyday wink
