so i finally got round to watching this, as i thought it was some boring old ballet film, albiet with a bit of hot girl on girl action in the middle, and i'd already skipped through briefly to checkout that scene and was dissapointed at the lack of nudity in it. i feel strongly that if you are going to be realistic in a movie you need to show nipples and clits during sex scenes, or you may as well be watching the simpsons

anyways, instead of being this boring flick about ballet, it turned into one of them japanese style horror movies like the ring or the eye where you don't have a fucking clue what the fuck is going on or why it's happening. instead of birds dancing about in tutus, there is some serious violence and gory scenes. my testicles were literally wincing in sympathy at some of the scenes of pain. it was like someone thought of mixing a sebian movie with martys and some ballet shit, and got the wee girl from leon to star in it. probably a fucking star wars fan

anywys, i just found out it's directed by darren aronofsky who directed, pi, requiem for a dream, and the fountain, which are far from your normal movies. he also directed the wrestler, which is completely unlike any of his other movies in it being a simple documentary style flick. had i known that it was going to be fucking weird i would have watched it sooner, but no-one gave me any indication what it was like, i think most people just turned it off halfway through after the lezzer bit and didn't watch all the way through

it's a fucking mental movie. not as mental as enter the void. that movie burns your fucking retinas before the opening titles have even ended, then it melts your fucking brain. you would probably die if you watched that movie on acid

so earlier i watched this, which is a fucking great movie. ryan goslin is a great actor, but i really found it hard to stand lars and the real doll. sometimes those movies are just fucking annoying. you know they are only making them for themselves and to get an academy award, and not for the entertainment of the audience. even paperman by the other ryan dude was at least enjoyable whilst being a bit offbeat and hoping for an oscar

anyways michelle williams was brilliant in it. the movie jumps between slightly differnt time periods, so the cast change appearance due to the age change, and it's amazing and convincing makeup, unlike many flicks that cover various periods that usually look a bit fake. i'm not sure if they put on weight for the later period scenes as they look so different. ryan gosllin was great in it too

i also watched this earlier today. the poster explains why i watched this

anways it's a brit rom com, which is different to the US rom coms that usually have sandra bullock or jennifer from friends in them, it's more like your four weddings and a funeral type thing

anyways, decent cast including tamsin greig who's current starring in the showtime/bbc collab, "episodes" with joey from friends. a good sunday afternoon type flick. easy going stuff

the end of brokeback mountain makes me sad. heath ledger with grey hair. he was just a baby when he died! 28 is way too young! i love the score to this movie. so simply pretty

that reminds me i saw the non gay version of this the other day...

[img:$uid]http://www.shockya.com/news/wp-content/uploads/love_and_other_drugs_poster.jpg[/img:$uid]

it's a pretty good movie, miles better than i expected. it's actually more about drugs salesmen in the 90s than a sex/romance flick. it's got a few laughs in it too. anne hathaway is pretty hot and you see most of her bits, which makes the giant HD plasma and bluray player worth every penny

i only watch it for heath. i dislike those 2 so i doubt i'll see that

[img:$uid]http://pixhost.info/avaxhome/2007-05-19/pearl_girl.jpg[/img:$uid]

and i watched this as i like the first 3 movies, the girl with the dragons tatoor, the girl who played with fire, and the girl who kicked the hornets net. the main bird was replaced by scarlet johanson, who is usually pretty hot, so no complaints there, but the rest of the movie was a load of boring old shite and made no sense compared to the prequels, even though i didn't have to read bloody subtitles to understand what the fuck they were going on about

the last airbender was probably the biggest load of shite i've saw this year, and trust me i've seen some fucking shite in my time

a few years ago some fucking busy bodies got stickers put on albums with swearing to warn parents, and let kids know what albums to buy if they wanted swearing. i think they should do the same with shite movies and put a big fucking warning on the movie poster and dvd cover saying "WARNING! FINANCIAL ADVISARY WARNING - THIS MOVIE IS ABSOLUTE SHITE" so you don't waste your money or time on it

Okay, the first year that I've watched any current films! I have a f'n say!:

Black Swan: visually beautiful, questions your belief in the main character because she questions herself, very adeptly reveals the lengths you will go to achieve success in the very competitive world of ballet. I can't help but believe that it would make you hallucinate being the murderer.

The King's Speech: Best line-up of actors for a difficult subject to convey. So a King can't give speeches? He had a speech impediment to add to it (from familial shaming). Yeah, how often does anyone know now mortifying that task can be? In addition, he was born into a family that had to do this. His bro gave up. He had to take the helm. His speech therapist, played brilliantly by Geoffrey Rush, gives him the confidence and belief that he can do it. Helena Bonham Carter plays a brilliantly reluctant first wife, seeking out help for the love of her life. I loved that about this movie. There's no question about their marriage and family. It's full of love. It's only about King George and his supports, the way he persevered through it, and the small corner of folks that helped him.

I swelled w/ pride after watching this. Highly recommended.

The Fighter: Perfecto, because it was a story about breaking off from a family to find your own truth. Two brothers who love each other, one down a bad path, the younger one looking for guidance from a family taking care of the first. Amy Adams is a kickass girlfriend, fighting for her man, while Christian Bale plays the bad guy made good brilliantly. The brothers find a truth that's always been there. Love it.

the thing about the kings speech was it was that radio had just been invented and popularised, so previous kings could have got away with a speech problem, but this was the first time the king/prince (at the start before he was king) had to broadcast to the public. the real broadcast from the time was edited to remove the dead air

the original speech is on this link http://www.bbc.co.uk/news...s-12020794

if you bother checking yourself you will find he did. he died as a result of his abuse of drugs leading to an overdose. if you got drunk and died drunk driving, you killed yourself, same thing here. note i didn't say suicide

no he didn't OD on any one thing. it was drug interaction. and the combination of drugs. he also had the flu and hadn't been sleeping. i wonder why mary kate was called first instead of 911. either she helped get the painkillers he was self medicating with but he may have been into harder drugs. who knows? like it makes a difference? he was a great actor and died too young. that olsen bitch looks like a freaken junkie! wouldn't be surprised if she was a heroin addict.

who knows where these ppl who write books get there info anyway. i mean i've read quite a few books on heath. they did allege he liked weed..but that doesn't kill you.

ok is painkillers can kill you by themselves add antidepressants,ambien and the flu..shit!unless they leaked new info i didn't hear i remember it was said no one drug was enough for him to OD on...

ANYWAY BACK ON TOPIC

i was thinking it was gonna be more of a comedy but it was more drama. i loved girl interrupted so no prob. i liked the queen/bowie under pressure scene alot. ZACH is funny. i gotta see due date.

cannonball lopping the guys head off! hell yes. and mel goes crazy with that tomahawk..............gabriel shoulda shot malfoy's dad a bunch of times. its not like its a animal on the side of the road ..oh lets poke it! dumbass. i hate that scene.

ok all i got left of heath is ned kelly and monster's ball..do i really have to sit thru billy bob eating halle barry out though? "iwant you to make me feeeeellll goooooodd! "

well i'm skipping blackrock cause he's in it two secs.i don't have PAWS and I'M NOT THERE..what the fuck is going on it that movie? all the characters make up bob dylan? huh? what?

i do have ROAR to watch. good show.

I didn't find this film weird at all. I just thought the poor thing was a paranoid schitzophrenic caught up in the drama of the performing arts, a career choice of which is a mindf**k within itself.

[img:$uid]http://www.chrisandphilpresent.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/1sht_Conviction.jpg[/img:$uid]

this was a great movie. likewise stone with ed norton and robert deniro, another great and semi similar prison drama from this year

conviction was all about sam rockwells character who is jailed for many years, and his sister trains to be a lawyer to appeal his case

hilary swank is back on form. as it that shitty ps i love you movie was deleted from existance

minnie driver also looks great in it. she looks better than she did in good will hunting. she looks like she's getting younger instead of older

[img:$uid]http://ips-static.videopublishing.com/kyproscom/FairGame-8-gallery.jpg[/img:$uid]

this was excellent. a very good political/war drama. naomi watts who was also in a tall dark stranger i watched the other day, was great, as was sean penn as usual. ty burrel from modern family also makes a small and barely recognisable appearance

it's all about the post 911 invasion of iraq, and the data that went into the decision making

[img:$uid]http://www.moviesmeter.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/its-poster.jpg[/img:$uid]

this stars keir gilchrist from united states of tara and zach galifinackis from bored to death (perhaps better known for the hangover and due date), and also features emma roberts from wild child, 4321 and twelve. lennys daughter that he had with bill crosbys daughter who is in californication and also twelve, zoe kravitz also makes an appearance

it's about a guy who has mental health issues and ends up in a psych ward with zach galifinackas. it's not quite one flew over the cuckoos nest, it's not a laugh a minute comedy either. it's by the writer/director due who did half nelson with ryan goslin, they also did the tv show in treatment

seeing them mime to under pressure by queen and david bowie dressed in glam wear is the highlight for me

that was lenny's daughter? she was pretty..

purplemookiebut said:

that was lenny's daughter? she was pretty..

yeah, lenny and lisa bonet

i also forgot to mention jeremy davies from lost was in it (the guy with the hat and beard), and lauren graham who fucked angelina jolies second husband whilst dressed up as santa, who appears in the tv version of parenthood

yeah that made me miss LOST

EASY A

Really enjoyed it. Loved Emma Stone (her timing is awesome) and everyone else in it.

3 1/2 out of 5

DEVIL

Alright. Had potential. Not-at-all scary IMO and corny-ass ending.

2 out of 5

Easy A was cute. It really made me like Emma Stone a lot. The movie wasn't great so much as it was kinda just...pleasant. But still, I enjoyed it.

OH I forgot to mention how badly I wanted to get it from Stanley Tucci during this movie (more than usual).

seth rogen just needs to stick to what he knows best...stoner comedy. it was just bad. really bad. that car was kool and the fight scene with him and kao was funny..otherwise just terrible........i'm suprised. i like comic book movies and seth rogen but not together..

The King's Speech.

Best movie I've seen in a very long time. Five stars.

[img:$uid]http://www.shockya.com/news/wp-content/uploads/due_date_poster11.jpg[/img:$uid]

following on from it's a kind of funny story with zach galifinakas, i watched due date again, which is a remake/copy of john hughes planes trains and automobiles, co-starring iron man himself, robert sherlock holms jr, and directed by the director of the hangover, who apparently has no name according to the poster, or at least the advertising people don't think the kind of people who see this kind of movie give two fucks who the blokes name is

anyways, it was funnier the first time, as it has quite a sharp script in places. as with most of these movies, they aren't half as funny the second time around, whereas some of the classic comedies seem timeless and always funny
