[quote=“Søren, post:19, topic:2131”]That’s called going off-topic
If someone made a “Favorite actors of Italy” thread you would also only mention actors seen (by you) while visiting Italy… That is, not necessarily Italians
Not that such a list couldn’t be interesting and the movie thread certainly could…[/quote]
;D ;D ;D
I don’t go to cinema very often (multiplex dramas, sound much too loud, irritating visitors, far too expensive) and prefer not to watch movies that are ‘the talk of the town’ (the Tarantinos, Lynches, Coens etc. I might make an exception for this 3D-thing Avatar)
For all these reasons, films usually are over a year old when I watch them
So far I haven’t seen any of the ten movies listed by klinteastwood
I don’t go to see movies much either. I think I’ve only seen Star Trek and Zombieland this year. Nothing against going to cinema’s, I just wasn’t that interested in any of the movies coming out.
These were actually the only movies that were released this year that truly interested me. I need to watch UP, though, because I have had a lot of people tell me it was very good (and they are people I trust when it comes to taste in film).
I am not a Sci-Fi fan, genearlly speaking, so I don’t care one whit about stuff like AVATAR, TERMINATOR SALVATION, STAR TREK, or even WATCHMEN.
There is no way I could come up with something like a Top 10 for 2009.
District 9
Interesting premise that may be silly but carried off in a very serious tone. Well made but it was all a little too much for me. Too depressing. Yes, I found it depressing.
Inglourious Basterds
Good fun. Wha else? (Don’t answer that)
The Road
Probably my second favorite movie of all time. Next to Assassination of Jesse james. I had to fight realy hard not to cry during this film. That’s right! :-[ :’(
[quote=“autephex, post:28, topic:2131”]Observe and Report was surprisingly good, although basically just a re-telling of his previous film: The Foot Fist Way
Still really want to see Whatever Works[/quote]
Thanks for that. Gonna check out The Foot Fist Way. Never heard of it before.
