I finally saw "Pi" the other day. Odd movie.
Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
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.
I just watched Inception.
are you mad at the end?
I am, a little. Joe and I have made a choice. We're sticking with that.
What is your choice?
It fell.
the evidence provided by wardrobe (the clothes the children are wearing in his memories versus what they are wearing in the last scene) confirms your choice.
Rise of the Planet of the Apes is pretty damn good. What the trailers don't make clear is that James Franco is not the main character: Caesar is. The human component is almost entirely irrelevant, and it's fascinating to watch him grow and learn and decide to do what he does. Even though you know where the movie is heading (it's right there in the title, after all), it doesn't make it any less interesting to watch. In fact, because you know where it's heading, you're in a continual state of anticipation, and, thankfully, the mayhem it leads up to is pretty fabulous.
Also, you've got to love a movie that destroys the human race in the credits.
P-C, yes. all over. And especially the credits. My thought was, well, they're setting up the next one nicely . I do love that Franco commits 110% to the role. No trace of irony or sarcasm there.
The kids are wearing different clothes. Similar, but not the same.
