Just saw the trailer for The flowers of War.
I wanna see it. A piece of history that isn't well known.

I was reading a blog earlier on, on oscar contenders for Actors.
This year seems to yield a bigger pool, no one is like the outright frontrunner.
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by obinna5000(m): 8:14pm On Nov 02, 2011
I just saw the trailer for THE ARTIST. Looks pretty good.
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by Thirdborn: 9:00am On Nov 30, 2011

Dude! I've been busy but you've been dead. Wassap?
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by Thirdborn: 3:29pm On Nov 30, 2011

Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by vescucci(m): 4:37pm On Nov 30, 2011
Lol. Yeah. I heard. from you know who. She said you have a coupla short films or something now. I'd like to see. I'll PM you later
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by Thirdborn: 5:15pm On Nov 30, 2011
Yeah, just got a mail from Malaysia this morning telling me the shortest one got accepted for their short film fest. I am hungry for some Nigerian action but still trying to break down the wall that these nolly people are trying to stop us with. so what did i miss?
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by vescucci(m): 7:00pm On Nov 30, 2011
Wow. Congratulations dude. Let's start with the short one then. PMing now.
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by iice(f): 4:05am On Dec 17, 2011
Was going through trailers and not even a blimp on the heart rate angry.

I'm not even that excited about 'Jack the Giant Killer' even though i grew up with that.

Can you blame me? After the travesty of Clash of the Titans, i'm leery of these classic remakes

Ahhh ok one looks promising. The Guy Pearce's 'MS one'. A lot of quips in the trailer, so that should be interesting. . .the dialogue that is.

Sasha Baron's 'The Dictator' seems corny, from the trailer that is. Kinda like those Steve Carrell exaggerated scenes. One part was funny though. When Megan Fox says 'Is this ruby? What am I? A Kardashian?' And the dictator says 'No, of course not, you're much less hairy' lol
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by spikyn: 1:30am On Dec 19, 2011
@iice I feel you. Still rewatching trailers for "Safe House, This Means War, The Avengers, TDKR & MI:GP" to amuse myself

Heard about "The Dictator"; There's already a classic "The Great Dictator" which is unmatchable so I am quietly pissed waiting for this,
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by iice(f): 2:32pm On Dec 19, 2011
I do hope next year fares better than this year.

It's like the industry is dying little by little sad

@iice
I hope so as well.
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by vescucci(m): 4:24pm On Dec 19, 2011
Spikyn! This must be a good omen

The industry is freefalling jor. Real unforgettable film are not being made anymore. The only really refreshing and pleasing thing about this millenium is Nolan and the odd film.
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by spikyn: 10:20pm On Dec 19, 2011
Hey Vesc!!

This year's failed me movie wise. 2 weeks more sha, maybe Brad Bird and Guy Ritchie can save it from the abyss
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by vescucci(m): 11:56pm On Dec 19, 2011
Actually I was saying exactly the same thing you're saying now just a month ago. But it seems the best films came out last month and this month. Have you seen Cars 2?

Speaking of Brad, that fella surprised me immensely! Hoping for Sam Mendes to do the same.

The best films are not the common blockbuster ones. I've been looking forward to: Young Adult, Hugo, M.I: 3, Warrior, The Muppets and Iron Lady which is not out yet. The point is the cool films are just coming out.


And Tintin tongue
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by iice(f): 9:56am On Jan 04, 2012
Anyone watch anything interesting recently?


I saw horrible bosses and found it to be dull. Characters are like Seth Rogen and Steve Carrell. I just want to beam them grin
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by vescucci(m): 10:27am On Jan 04, 2012
Did you even notice Colin Farell's character? Best of the lot. I'd forgotten about hiim. He killed it.
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by iice(f): 10:42am On Jan 04, 2012
Sure he's the only one i mildly liked. But he was disgusting jare. I expected phlegm to fly out of his noise every once in while.
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by chika98: 3:37pm On Jan 04, 2012
I've heard that Iron lady isn't that great according to Ebert. I seldom heed to reviews though.
I feel this thread is for people who are almost borderline critics themselves because some of the movie description sounds rather errr "experienced"? I'm just an avid movie fan jare. I like it then I watch. Either a thumbs up or down for me. Some of the back and forth on this thread bin just give me small headache now sef
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by iice(f): 3:55pm On Jan 04, 2012
lol, good to see you here Chika.

I read too that it's not all that too, but i won't stop me from watching. I love her. Truly a great actress besides i like 'iron ladies' grin
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by chika98: 3:59pm On Jan 04, 2012
Yes Iice she's brilliant! Perhaps she'll nick an Oscar this year? Fingers crossed. Meanwhile any interest in watching "War Horse" ?
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by iice(f): 4:19pm On Jan 04, 2012
*crossing fingers*

I'm not excited. Haven't been excited about movies for a while. They just seem not to be coming up to my expectations. I might still watch it because it's SS. Just to see how it goes.

I saw you watched the original dragon tattoo. I still haven't gotten to it yet lol.
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by chika98: 4:56pm On Jan 04, 2012
Ah an Igbo girl like me has absolutely nothing to do with a horse feem at all hence I wont be watching. It seems movie makers are lacking creativity and fresh ideas. "Safe House" with Denzel looks promising. I'll definitely be watching for sure.
Yeah the original is just awesome. I'd suggest you see it before at least the Golden Globes. I was gonna go to the movies this weekend but nothing good is coming out so. . . .
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by spikedcylinder: 10:16pm On Jan 04, 2012
I guess this isn't about directors anymore.
I'm so out of loop with movies! All these names seem alien to me as all I keep watching are European foreign language films these days.
Ice ice baby, how you dey na? tongue
Re: Hollywood directors: Rate or hate? What's your Take? by iice(f): 6:28am On Jan 05, 2012
