What Emmanuelle Movie Did You Just Watch?

[Abraham Smashington]

For sure but at least it seems like something a super spy would have access to.

[Ari]

It was actually a half hearted attempt at doing Jack Kirby's New Gods that got turned into a Masters of the Universe movie.

Yeah, I read the director even wanted to dedicate the movie to Kirby, but the producers said no.

Date Night

Did not expect to make it past the first 10 minutes, so the fact that I made it all the way through - and enjoyed it - speaks volumes about how much better this was than it's reputation and advertising suggested. Excellent supporting cast and the requisite number of actual laughs is enough for me, but it would be nothing without Carell and Fey on form and clearly riffing off one another. Carell can do no wrong in my book - when he's on, I don't think there's a popular American comedy actor that can touch him.

[Abraham Smashington]

The car chase scene was aces.

[Matt]

That car chase was superior to 90% of the car chases that you'll find in legit action movies. Not sure what it was doing in DATE NIGHT but I sure dug it.

Casino Royale

Aston Martin DBS V12
The car has a glove compartment filled with assorted tools and weaponry, including a high-tech first aid kit, antidotes to various poisons and portable defibrillator.
Sony Ericsson K800
Mobile phone with sophisticated GPS and 3.2 megapixel digital camera, with the ability to take multiple pictures very rapidly.
Microchip implant
Bond is implanted with a microchip that helps MI6 keep track of Bond's whereabouts; it also monitors Bond's vital signs which are transmitted back to MI6 for analysis.
Tracking device
Similar to the implant in Bond's arm, this tracking device is placed in Le Chiffre's inhaler.
Omega Seamaster wristwatch
Explosive Keychain
Originally used in the attempt to destroy a commercial airliner in Miami. Bond removes this from the fuel lorry and attaches it to a henchman's belt loop.

Quantum of Solace

Walther P99
The Walther PPK returns, after having been replaced at the end of Tomorrow Never Dies by the P99.
Aston Martin DBS V12
Sony Ericsson C902
This mobile phone has a built in identification imager, capable of compiling a composite facial image of a potential suspect even when the person being photographed is looking to the side. This phone can also receive information immediately regarding the suspect as it is also tied into the MI6 data mainframe.
Omega Seamaster wristwatch
MI6 Profile Touchscreen
Similar to the Microsoft Surface, this tool used by MI6 gathers information regarding possible suspects in an investigation, and relays it back to Bond through his mobile phone.
Quantum Earpiece
A Q-shaped earpiece that 007 uses to listen in on Dominic Greene and his plots.

Skyfall

Walther PPK/S 9mm short
A version equipped with a palm-print reader, only enabling the gun to fire when it detects Bond's palm-print.
Radio transmitter
A simple radio transmitter that allows MI6 to track Bond's location when activated. Bond expresses his disappointment at the poor selection of gadgets at his disposal from the new Q (Ben Whishaw), who explains that Q branch no longer go in for "exploding pens".
Aston Martin DB5
Presumably the same DB5 that Bond won in the Bahamas in Casino Royale, the car has since been equipped with familiar features from its first appearance in Goldfinger - Bond jokingly threatens M by exposing the gear lever-mounted ejector seat button while she is seated in the passenger seat, and its hidden machine guns are used during the climactic battle with Silva.

These vehicle gadgets were featured on the film:

2x 20mm Browning Machine Guns behind the front head lamps (as seen in the film Thunderball)
Ejection Seat (as seen previously in the film Goldfinger)

Sony Xperia T

AW101 Helicopter
Silva's helicopter, equipped with a Public address system in the undercarriage intended to play music very loud while hovering over its intended target zone.

Nice work, Phedg. As a reward, Q has given you his pen! "This is a Class 4 grenade. Three clicks arms the four-second fuse, another three disarms it."

The Fall

For everytime I'll see The Cell, or Immortals, and think Tarsem Singh is overrated and only a visual genius, I'll just remember this movie and know he created one hell of a criminally underrated movie I've ever seen. Gorgeous (it's Singh, duh), but also deceptively simple yet effective and touching.

Love it. On Bluray, it's just epic.

Bill and Ted Excellent Adventure

If you're looking at movies that defined me as a person, you'll find, along notable movies such as Big Trouble in Little China, The Thing, Blade Runner, Bloodsport, Die Hard and Commando, well, Bill and Ted Excellent Adventure.

Back then, my mom and sister went to see a concert, so my dad rented this movie that just came out on VHS. And we both had a blast, a good father/son bonding time. What's great now is that it just add to this great little movie. It's a very stupid movie, but it's so well-intentioned, and what flaws it has is waaaaaay compensated by the fun it generates. The sentimental value just adds more to it for me, that's all. A most excellent pleasure. And it spawned one of the coolest and original sequel ever.

And it has George Carlin, and Al Leong as Genghis Khan. How can one hates?

EXCELLENT ADVENTURE is 'really good', but BOGUS JOURNEY is 'fucking awesome'.

[B_Metal]

EXCELLENT ADVENTURE is 'really good', but BOGUS JOURNEY is 'fucking awesome'.

YERP

[Abraham Smashington]

I'm with Matt. I love Excellent, but Bogus is a work of genius that shouldn't work AT ALL. But it totally does.

STATION!

[Matt]

90% of why BOGUS JOURNEY works can be attributed to William Sadler's Grim Reaper character. That character, as conceptualized and realized on the screen by Sadler, transcends cinema and becomes legitimate art.

[Abraham Smashington]

Sadler should have done more comedy roles.

[BillyG]

Goddamn do I love Bogus Journey.
