We're watching Aliens 3 tonight. We got the whole thing on DVD really cheap a while back from where my mum works. Alien, Aliens, Alien 3 and 4, Predator 1 and 2 and the AvP films. Gareth said 3 is his favourite although some don't like it and I fancy some more Alien, so why not. I already know it's a pretty much trollalolol plot.

Alien 3 is pretty good once you get used to it.. plus there are two versions both with a completely different viewing experience. You really should be watching it on Blu-ray though.

I'm thinking about picking up that series on blu-ray, maybe minus the last two, didn't care for either of those too much. I watched 2 fast 2 furious again tonight, I know the scenes are quite doctored but most of the movies are just amazing to watch.

X-men: First Class. Fun movie, but nothing groundbreaking.

Lemme ask, did it have at least good characterization?

[Alexia_Ashford]

I thought it did. I liked it a lot and I'm not even really an X Men fan.

I Saw the Devil, another Korean torture/hammer flick that has a slightly unhappy ending (you know how it goes).

I've seen that, and I couldn't help but enjoy the dark humour presented in the film. Got to thank my uncle for recommending me this. A good film I'd say.

My brother went to a screening of Super 8 (damn fool didn't tell me) and he says that the movie is really good but that the ending sucks major ass.

I didn't want him to elaborate on that one.... Since I want to see it myself.

He just said that a lot of silly/stupid stuff happens near the end that ruined the movie for him.

I hope J.J. Abrams doesn't turn into a Tim Burton/Shyamalan/Paul Anderson.

Those directors just don't know how to finish their films.

[Wrathborne]

Well Tim Burton cant read a script(his own admission) so he doesn't really know what does and doesn't work, I'm pretty much convinced that Shyamalan got all his fame in "The 6th Sense" from ripping off "The Eye"(The original 1997 Chinese film) and as for Anderson...Yeah, I'm quite certain my opinion in him is known by now.

Ive Been going through the Original Star Wars tilogy since watch Episode 3 the other day. I'm starting to appreciate them more than I used to. The effects while noticeably dated arent actually as bad as I remember. I have to admit I do miss the epic lightsaber battles episodes 1 to 3 provide. I always wonder why Lucas started with episode 4 rather than from the first one, ive heard so many different rumours about it.

edit
Also Human Traffic is now one of my all time faveourite films, truly brilliant

....hmmm...hmmmm...Ya know, even I dont know the answer to that question. And I'm a film buff. Lemme see if I can get an answer for ye.

[Wrathborne]

Well this is from IMDB, best answer I could locate.

Contrary to popular belief, the reason George Lucas created the title card "Episode IV" in the first film was as a homage to 1940's Saturday afternoon "cliffhanger" serials, like the Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon. He also used the "text crawl" the same way each of those series opened up new chapters. He did not at the time have Episodes I, II, and III already planned. In fact, at one point, 20th Century Fox wanted the "Episode IV" title removed so as not to confuse moviegoers. There are some prints of the film that do not have that title card.

Yep, it was pretty decent. Reminded me of "The Chaser" which is also worth checking out.

My favourite Star Wars movie is the first one (Episode IV A New Hope), the original version of course. I don't think I've ever watched the remastered one all the way through. The way they present Tattooine, the moisture farm, Mos Eisley etc just make you feel it really is another world. And for me this movie goes hand-in-hand with Star Wars Galaxies which replicated the atmosphere perfectly... time to play some SWGEMU I think...

[Wrathborne]

I watched Robocop for the first time in...god knows how long. Damn you, Spencer.
