What Emmanuelle Movie Did You Just Watch?

[Bobby Bear]

Finally watched Abram's Star Trek. Was never a big Trek fan growing up, but I loved the movie, lens flares aside.

I didn't find the lens flares distracting at all, during my second viewing. And I'm usually the most likely to squint in strong sunlight.

Dawn of the Dead (original) on blu. Goddamn. This transfer is great. Looks like it was released yesterday.

The Spirit - 6.4 - This film ultimately succumbs to its poor writing and direction, which are almost cleverly masked by the signature visual style of Miller, which is hypnotizing at times.

Babylon A.D. - 6.3 - This one failed in 2 very important aspects of storytelling. One, they were confused as to what the climax really was and two, there's no resolution or their pathetic excuse for one was terrible.

State of Play - 7.8 - surprisingly delivers on almost every count. It is not a perfect film, but it is a solid example of great film-making. It wants to be more, but seems content at being a twisty and suspenseful modern thriller.

He's Just Not That Into You - Snappy direction and fine production values are this films assets. The bottom line is that while the film will please romcom enthusiasts it will also entertain those who usually attend movies of this genre with reluctance.

Sherlock Holmes - 8.1 - Even when Sherlock Holmes feels a little bit more like James Bond, he doesn't feel any less like Sherlock Holmes. Ritchie finds a way to depict Sherlock's fighting as a mental exercise as much as it's a physical feat. In the same way, though "Sherlock Holmes" is grander and more commercial than Guy Ritchie's usual films, it doesn't feel any less like Guy Ritchie.

Invictus - 6.9 - Not only does this movie lack excitement of any kind, it dumbs down the apartheid issue, among others, to some silly game that nobody cares about. What on earth is Eastwood thinking here? It's like he has become a preacher, it's a total sermon instead of a story, one could not find this interesting even if it had Eastwood come out at the end running across the field with his M1 Garand.

Tales of the Black Freighter - 7.0- The animation was stylish and well made. There was really nothing done with the atmosphere. Production values were high. But unfortunately the story is uninteresting. There is no real tension. You get no back-story whatsoever.

It's Complicated - 8.4 - This was fucking hilarious. Krasinski for the win.

The Brothers Bloom - 6.9 - Meh. Not even Weiz or Ruffalo could carry this. Tried to hard and wasn't enough of what it wanted to be.

Up in the Air - 8.3 - Liked this alot. Excellent performances all around. Vera side boob!

The Proposal - 7.2 - Had a chuckle here and there. Sandra shows the most skin ever.

Dawn of the Dead (original) on blu.

Is that the new Fancy Dan edition with multiple covers and Argento's cut et al on it?

Also, I'm not fussed on Brick either. Remember being really excited to see it theatrically and so let down on the way out.

WHAT?!??! I thought that was only the 3-4 disc special DVD version. If there is a super blu ray version, I must get that.

[Bobby Bear]

Now, I'm no great authority on Dead DVD's/Blu's, but this is definitely a new edition. Review in last month's Empire and everything. According to Play (who say it's a Blu & 2 DVD set) it's not available until March 1st, but I know this to be lies as I have held it in my own mits at an HMV twice already.

[Abraham Smashington]

Dammit. Mine is the old blu version that was out. Goddammit. I just got it too. Time to octodip at this point.

[Shit Dickface]

Oh, for fuck's sake. I'll have to tripledip.

[Bobby Bear]

That's dedication, man. I'm not sure what I'd octodip for. Aside from Robot Jox, of course.

[Abraham Smashington]

This is my all time favorite movie. EVER. I have owned pretty much every version at some point or another. And Robot Jox. haha. I believe there is a thread here about that flick.

I must be up to 7 or 8 dips for 'Blade Runner' by now, if you include all of the VHS tapes.

Yeah, I got mine a few months back, when I realized I didn't have the super fancy version of the DVD...can we get a linker of the set?

Did you get the badass blu set yet?

I remember you saying on the show. Even so, that's impressive commitment.

Robot Jox thread you say? Finally, a place to quote Paul Koslo and not be judged...

"I have already killed you (pointing to head.) In here!"
