we started to watch Equilibrium last night but my eyes rolled out of my head and across the floor when they said that Mona Lisa was authentic. We switched to Knocked Up which was even funnier the second time around though the unrated version does drag in spots. I'm curious to watch the theatrical release to see if it flows better. I do intend to give Equilibrium another shot.
Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Equilibrium is quite silly, but the gun katas are fun, in a very silly way.
Oh! TMD is an annual rewatch. TMD is responsible for my love of Neruda. In the same way as the series Beauty and the Beast is responsible for my love of Rilke.
I remember yelling "Shoot the dog!" at the screen during Equilibrium.
I had to stop TMD and eject the DVD. I found them all loathsome and annoying.
I know I'm a heretic. I'm sorry.
Cinematical's list of the seven best R rated Christmas movies. Ummm, WTF? They've never heard of Love Actually or even Bad Santa?
The Ref is my favorite. And I swear it's not just because my dad and stepmonster have an antique business and a miserable marriage. But that does help.
But it did have Silent Night, Deadly Night, so it had the most important R rated Christmas movie on it.
I think The Ref made me fall in love with Denis Leary a bit but "Rescue Me" cleared that right up.
Ha! I was never that into TMD either, but didn't want to say anything.
