BribieG Posted March 18, 2007 Posted March 18, 2007 My Mrs and I often go to the movies on Tuesday (tues special $9.00 in Bris) but the current crop of movies sounds appalling: Ghost Rider: Superstar motorcycle stunt rider, Johnny Blaze strikes a deal with the vile Mephistopheles bla bla Hot Fuzz: From the Shaun of the Dead team – a comedy about a top cop who’s sent to a small country village Last Kiss: The Last Kiss is a contemporary comedy-drama about life, love, infidelity, forgiveness, marriage, friendship…and coming to grips with turning 30 Bla Bla Bla No S.F, no blockbuster animations like Happy Feet, no big action stuff like Bond... sh**t I'd rather watch seven! (now in HD) We've seen Miss Potter and The Queen, which were the best of the bunch. Anyone know of ANYTHING worth watching coming up in the next couple of months?
mello yello Posted March 18, 2007 Posted March 18, 2007 Has the Bra Boys hit Brisbane yet? Not that I condone gloryfying real life street thugs but it could be an interesting Aussie movie. Margaret gave it 4 stars Wild Hogs ? John Travolta Marisa Tomei Four guys from the suburbs hit the road... and the road hit back. And my all time pick for 2007..coming soon to a theatre near you Mr Beans Holiday
Mcrackn Posted March 18, 2007 Posted March 18, 2007 I saw Wild Hogs, it was alright for a bit of a laugh.
Aloysius Posted March 19, 2007 Posted March 19, 2007 So was it compulsory to have nothing on at the movies? Was it clothing optional? Where did this occur?
Autocrat Posted March 19, 2007 Posted March 19, 2007 Hot Fuzz is reputedly v.good. And Razzle Dazzle might be worth a look. Depends really - if you like the "blockbuster" type garbage that comes out of the US, these probably won't ring your bells.

BribieG Posted March 19, 2007 Author Posted March 19, 2007 if you like the "blockbuster" type garbage that comes out of the US ... LOVE the blockbuster stuff actually didn't mind the Day After Tomorrow, excruciating dialogue and all, and have it on DVD. Razzle Dazzle sounds ok. Love some of the British stuff - "The Prestige" was brilliant and "Children of Men" still gives me a chill whenever I recall it. Oh, and National Treasure was brilliant on the big screen - no sex, no swearing and only ONE henchman got killed. Remarkable.

BribieG Posted March 19, 2007 Author Posted March 19, 2007 Thanks Mello, Mr Bean's holiday seems right up my alley!!
Austen Posted March 19, 2007 Posted March 19, 2007 Mr Bean sounds great, Saw "Wild Hogs" with Boy-Child while we were in Melbourne, Good for a laugh, but then again I don't mind John Travolta and reckon Tim Allen is great .............. Austen.
mattgodman Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 Generally the period between February and winter is very quiet for movies, because the Christmas holiday blockbusters are gone and Hollywood is gearing up for the megabucks Summer period. If you want your movie to make any money you generally release it during Christmas or Summer (winter down south). That's why there's a rather dry spell right now. When the summer period starts, you get a huge number of blockbuster movies being released; Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End Spiderman 3 Shrek the Third Ocean's 13 Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix The Simpsons ...and many more. In little over 2 months you're in movie heaven.

Brazzwald Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Saw Hot Fuzz yesterday, funny and surprising at the same time. Good movie I reckon those that do see it will look forward to the DVD release for home theatre viewing, the action was classic stuff... Brazzwald
Mining Man Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 We've got this to look forward to this week...
50mxe20 Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 We've got this to look forward to this week... It could only happen in N.Z.Probably a result of all that abuse.
Typhoon Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Saw a trailer for Die Hard 4 when I was last at the movies. Not sure when it's released though. Everyone loves Bruce Willis.
digitalj Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 There's always something at the movies, it's just you don't like what's there
Mcrackn Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Haha, looks like those sheep are going to f**k back
BribieG Posted March 31, 2007 Author Posted March 31, 2007 Mello what did you do to me? Staying with rellies in Sydney and their computer is very old and slow, went to look at the Powerhouse Museum and there's an internet room free of charge with notice "Parents please supervise children whilst on the Internet" etc... super fast broadband, so I thought "check the forum out" Clicked on the "be very afraid" link and up popped Mr Bean. The room operates on Macs, which I'm not familiar with. COULDN'T CLOSE THE BLOODY WINDOW!! :ph34r: :ph34r: about 50 schoolkids in a party approaching. I fled to the Space Exhibition with an innocent look on my face. Hopefully the Powerhouse hasn't been in touch with the forum yet BTW saw Bean, first time I've laughed out loud since I was on the Forum last.
