What Emmanuelle Movie Did You Just Watch?

[Abraham Smashington]

Man, I used to like Leviathan when I was 10... but Critters was way more fun.

Critters is the shit. Those bounty hunters were awesome.

[Martin]

Fuck yeah. Sequels were alright, but the original stands out.

[Abraham Smashington]

I do enjoy the 3rd entry but yeah, the OG is great.

Watched/buzzed through 'Tron Legacy' again last night...I was looking for some eye candy while I ate my dinner.

Thoughts:
- You're right: the first 45 minutes of the film is pretty solid. It becomes boredom city once old Flynn actually enters the picture.
- Castor/Zeus makes absolutely zero sense as a character. I can buy the motivations of almost all of the 'programs' that we're introduced to, but I can't understand why a program would act like that? How do you program flamboyancy?
- Tron/Rizzler makes absolutely zero sense as a character. He feels completely shoehorned in and lacks any kind of motivation or story arc. There should have been some sort of redemptive story around his character.
- Garrett is fine in the role. Any fault with his performance can be attributed to the script which, unfortunately, puts him in a dour and passive role.

I was really surprised with how good First Blood is.

The funny thing is, had Brian Dennehy not had such a bug up his ass. The town wouldn't have been destroyed.

[Abraham Smashington]

First Blood is a MUST OWN on blu. It's gorgeous looking.

[Matt]

Love 'First Blood'. Good to know that it's a good blu-ray.

[Abraham Smashington]

It is, and you can usually find it for under 12 bucks.

Haven't rewatched it, but I agree with your points. Castor/Zeus was Michael Sheen's character, right? He was great.

And no lightcycle in the last act = FAIL. In fact, they should have done the opposite: end it in the arena.

We did get the lightplane aerial battle (which was pretty decent) but that's merely an interlude in a thoroughly dull and lifeless second half. Good GOD does this film have pacing issues.

[Ed Hocken]

The remixed soundtrack is aces though.

[Martin]

Absolutely. The Crystal Method track is the shit.

[Abraham Smashington]

Skyline. Didn't hate it. Felt like a video game and I was entertained. Plus Brittany Daniel. It actually felt like I was sorta watching an adaptation gone wrong of t he game 'Prey' for whatever reason.

The kids are all right - really decent flick about the modern family and of course, added hollywood drama. Dug it. Ruffalo should get more work.

Four Lions - Where do I start? And where can I possibly end? Great comedy flick about a really touchy subject. So much funny I don't think I can cover it all. "I'll kill you bro." "Earless rabbits" "Rubber dingy rapids" "Run fast but smooth, smooth and slow, but fast" OMG just so much funny. To write a movie about Jihad and make it this funny should guarantee someone work for life.

HP AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS PT. 1- EPIC. I don't know how they made the worst part of the book (450 pages of Harry, Hermione, and Ron walking through the woods) entertaining but they did it. I wish the undercover mission at the Ministry was a little longer but otherwise I loved the hell out of this. Can't decide if this is my favorite or AZKABAN.
