What Emmanuelle Movie Did You Just Watch?

[Abraham Smashington]

hahahahahah.

Now show them Gremlins 2.

Finally got out to see Sicario. If you're into films like Traffic, Sin Nombre, No Country for Old Men, or liked Denis Villeneuve's previous films Enemy and Prisoners, or watched Narcos, you'll probably like Sicario. Worth a watch for the extraction sequence at the border alone. Probably not the best movie for the holidays though, unless you like your holiday movies with a side of Mexican cartel murders.

[Abraham Smashington]

I really want to see that. A whole bunch.

I really want to see that. A whole bunch.

Del Toro makes the entire movie.

[Martin]

I love Villeneuve. Easily our best director. Makes me curious on Blade Runner 2.

Sicario was good. I'm a fan of the Blunt hottie, but yeah, Del Toro.

[Fil]

Del Toro makes the entire movie.

Yeah, he's great in this.

I love Villeneuve. Easily our best director. Makes me curious on Blade Runner 2.

Sicario was good. I'm a fan of the Blunt hottie, but yeah, Del Toro.

Yeah, the one two punch of Enemy and Prisoners made me a fan of his. Sicario was a no brainer watch for me, Del Toro, Blunt, Brolin, Villeneuve, Deakins and subject matter that fascinates me.

Kingsman. LOVED this. The action sequences were just incredible. And the tongue in cheek, self conscious humor, as well as all the stellar performances from every main character make this easily one of the best films I've seen all year. My wife came home from Xmas shopping halfway thru and saw the training montage where the chick drowns, and was like: "That's a bit much, don't you think?" She continued to bitch and ask semi rhetorical questions over the dialogue until I gave with a curt: "It's only a movie, dear."

In a move full of excess and extremes that's like the least excessive part because it informed a large part of what the Kingsmen were about. If she had watched the rest her head would've exploded.

Totally with you on Kingsman, Ig. Enjoyed the hell out of it - got an odd Derek Flint/Matt Helm spy movie vibe from it, but more British, of course.

She did watch the rest of it; heckled quietly & derisively at a few points. And gasped at some of the violence in the fight sequences. And she couldn't stop laughing at Samuel L. Jackson's lisp. I don't get why she hated on this movie so much. It was batshit insane, yes, but it wasn't THAT batshit insane that it should inspire this level of disbelief.

You need to put a little Jodeci on and straighten your wife out man. Like stat.

[gravedigger]

My wife walked in during the Freebird sequence and felt the same way. I think she said something like "what are you even watching? This is dumb."

[Abraham Smashington]

Meanwhile Lesley fucking loved that movie because it's awesome. It just sucks because I can't do a great Brit accent and that makes her all silly.

Watched Blade Runner - the Final Cut tonight
it's been awhile. I have thoughts about this movie but I've made peace with them.


Decided to then pop in Avatar - EXTREME ALL OF THE EXTRA FOOTAGE version and fuck man, I cannot wait until 2017 for the next one.

JAKE SULLLLY

[gravedigger]

I was just thinking about Avatar today. Like, remember when that was a thing and now no one remembers it? It's lasting legacy is not fancy CG worlds but a world when 3D gets tacked on to every genre movie.

[Abraham Smashington]

right? It's a fucking shame because this is one fucking amazing world building flick. Fuck the "IT'S POCAHONTAS IN SPACE" shit. The stuff on display is still awe inducing in my opinion. And the extra 16 min version is great. Can't wait for the sequels where we go underwater and shit in 3d and see giant alien squids and oh god cannnnnnnot wait
