Life of Pi
OMG, really? Really??? -_-
The most stupidest & most boring movie I have ever seen.
I couldn't even bring myself to watch it completely, I don't think it would have gotten any better towards the ending.
MI4, actually really enjoyed it, was a lot of fun and kept you guessing the whole way through.
The Usual Suspects, haven't watched that film in ages and I do very much enjoy it! The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convinving the world he didn't exisit, and like that...he's gone! :3
The Hunchback of Notre Dame
It's been ages since I last saw it, and I don't remember having seen it in English before. It was like watching it for the first time all over again. Loved it! :cs_love:
I started watching Old Dogs Sunday evening, and after 20 minutes I was like: oh, I still have that JK Rowling story taped too, and I ended up watching that.
The Hobbit.
Not sure. The 2 songs in the beginning, lol.
Then the hedgehog scene, made me think they were going to talk, lol.
I like Lord of the Rings just enough to tolerate it, but this one... Nah, probably won't see the next 2.
Will read it online, just to know what happens, haha.
When I first saw "The Hobbit" I thought the same, Nathalie. Then a few years later somebody gave me the third part as a present. So I had to watch part 2 and 3 as well ;)
About week ago my husband and I finally watched part 1, 2 and 3. The movies are okay, if you don't stick to the book that much. It's funny that Legolas actually looks older and more mature than in the "Lord of the Rings" which takes place after the Hobbit :D
So yeah... the last movie I watched probably was The Hobbit 3... I think XD
The Hobbit is a typical example of what happens when you try to get three movies out of book with 300 pages. In the end it was a battle of special effects within a nice setting.
Yesterday I watched "National Treasure: Book of Secrets". When you like India Jones with Nicolas Cage it's probably something for you. At least I found it very entertaining.
I loooooooooove National Treasure, hehe.
I haven't read a book in my entire life! No, that's a lie, I've read 1 ... a childrens book, haha. (Charmed Life)
So for every movie out there, I have no idea what the books are like (I have Harry Potter on my laptop though, I *should* read them).
At some point also rabbits appear, and with the hedgehogs a bit earlier, I felt I was watching bits and pieces of Narnia.
The last movie i saw was Jupiter Ascending. Being from the Wachowski s (same creators of matrix) there is a lot of things you don't see in most movies, and is that innovation that I like. Good movie
Men in Black III
I think it's one of the best sequels ever made!
The other guy playing K in the past does an amazing job on being Tommy Lee Jones (who I love!!).
Everything add ups, the story is extremely well done, also with J in the end.
It's got jokes, and I even cried near the end, haha
The Martian
I really enjoyed it, despite a few mistakes, it is the love letter to science they say it is, and Matt Damon's acting is terrific. I recommend it :)
But as it is usual with movies based on books, the book is far superior. They left out some really good scenes that explain a couple of plot holes (and some really good jokes too, the book's humour is hillarious!)
Just two non-spoilery things I nitpicked about:
-The character Vincent Kapoor, the Director of the Mars Mission, is called Venkat in the book, not Vincent. Also, he's not black, but Indian. Come on, was that change really necessary? Is it not that believable a man with Indian ethnicity could have a position like that? Seriously, what year is it? ><
-And secondly... they changed the movie's title in Mexico to just 'Rescue Mission'. Oh come on! Really!? REALLY!? -_-
Time Lapse
Does anyone remember that Goosebumps book "Say Cheese and Die" ? This movie is kind of like that, but the camera doesn't take pictures of death or horrible things all the time. It's about a camera that takes pictures 24 hours into the future. It's definitely a pretty good movie. It was not what I was expecting. I personally liked it! It's on Netflix if anyone is interested in checking it out. ;)
It is not actually a movie, although it was 1.5 hour long, but I finally got over myself and watched the last episode of "Lost". Took me almost six years to watch the last two seasons. The end is very strange, but the concept of the whole series was to leave a lot of unanswered questions, so it remains true to itself. xD
Ugh, I hate something like that, spent so many years watching a series, and then in the end you still don't know? Terrible ...
Watching The Croods. It's OK, has some funny bits.
Beginning reminded me of Little Mermaid, girl wants to explore new things, daddy is against it, etc ...
Oliver. (Disney)
The Little Prince
I was a bit skeptical about this one, looking at the trailers and seeing that it's pretty much a "story within a story" is a little eyebrow-lifting. But after watching it, I found it truly beautiful and heartwarming, I totally loved it! :kionwow:
The way they fit in the whole story of The Little Prince while we see how it affects in a little girl's life (controlled by her mother) worked really well, it's actually more like an expansion to the original tale, in a way. The animation in the girl's story looks ok, but it's the parts where we see The Little Prince where it really shines, done in beautiful stop-motion animation. I wish there were more scenes like those in the movie, they were fantastic.
I love it when I see a non-Disney/Pixar animated movie being this good. I'm sure Inside Out will take all of the awards with good reason, but this one is a really good contender, I do recommend it :)
And now I just saw Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens
I won't spoil any single detail about it, but I just had the best nerdgasm of my entire life :simbabiggrin:
^ This
I have decided to buy the blu-ray Special Edition for the movie, It's not that I'm not comfortable watching on cinema but I rather have my own peace of mind at home watching it on 4k.
Star Wars, The Force Awakens :D It was pretty awesome. My high hopes were not dashed :)
The Good Dinosaur. I actually thought it was pretty cute and not terrible, I think it's just been a bit outshined by Star Wars. I liked the human character a LOT more than I thought I would, he was pretty adorable. x)
Ooh, how exciting, I'm looking forward to seeing it, probably on Tuesday :D
Lion King!
For the first time ever I've seen it broadcasted on TV.
Brave. I couldn't sleep and it was on Netflix :p
Coco avant Chanel. It was on the TV and I got hooked :p Very nice, well-made film.
Conspiracy Theory. My dad had it on last night, kind of crazy but not terrible. Your typical suspense/thriller figure it out type movie.
Dracula (1931)
The Good Dinosaur. I'm not sure what to say about it really, I mean I enjoyed it but it definitely wasn't what I expected, haha. There was a moment or two that were really weird, and some things that I just didn't expect for a Disney movie these days, haha, but I really liked both the main characters. I thought Arlo (or however it's spelled) had pretty good character development. Not to mention that the landscapes were to die for. Some of them looked so much like actual footage as opposed to animation.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens, at laaaast! :D And it was fantastic. I'm still - several hours later - in a really good mood because I enjoyed the film so much, haha. They sure met every expectation and more!
I'm also really surprised that I managed to go this long without seeing it and not stumble upon a single spoiler. Well done, internet :P
Shaun the Sheep Movie
Aardman Animations did it again, it's so friggin' hillarious! :lol: I loved it!
That's amazing you dodged all the spoilers, it's a movie very easy to spoil with just a few words xD Glad you enjoyed it.Quote:

Men in Black 3.
These movies are one of my favorites! And this 3rd one, they've done it so well.
The younger version of K is just an amazing actor, everything fits when they go back into time.
That's how sequels should be <3
The Hunchback of Notre Dame. <3 Love that movie, it's so beautiful in so many ways. Also has some of the coolest songs in Disney history, in my opinion. I watched the songs in french and spanish as well just to enoy them even more. x)
The Lion King in 3D, at the movie theater! :simbabiggrin:
They put it on one theater only today, it's the second time I see it in 3D and it still impresses me, it's very well achieved.
There was one particular kid sitting in front of me who was having a blast with it, I could see he was really enjoying it, and I recall he said "did he die?" very concerned right after Scar pushed Mufasa from the cliff and before seeing his body (awww!) but he also laughed at all the jokes and overall seemed to love it to the end.
I don't know, I guess I had never really seen anyone watching TLK for the first time before, especially a kid that excited and about the same age I was when I saw it back in '94... It made me smile :)
Minions
Back To The Future
It was on TV the other day, so I decided to watch it again, even though I watched it a few weeks ago. :lol:
The Jungle Book, the new version. Quite enjoyed it. Some of the animation was a bit stiff but I enjoyed it visually otherwise, not as close to the book as I would have liked, but still a fun movie.
Gonna see Captain America 3 tonight.
#team Iron Man! Hehe
^ Wanna start a debate on the motive of the storyline Civil War? :cheese: :D
