Knowing....it was interesting. Not one for very religious people. Made me leave feeling glum.

Watched Wendy and Lucy tonight.
what performance! Overall movie was soaked with inevitability of existencial and economical crysis, it's quite dark and depressing, though after some time one could think there is some hope after all. nonetheless.. represents what many people are facing in reality these days.

cool, sounds far out.

lostpilot · Apr 22, 2009, 10:32 PM

though as I said.. really depressing.
and I think I chose a wrong evening for this movie, so now I'm quite down alright

bright lights, big city · Apr 23, 2009, 02:13 AM

meh, i kind of like depressing movies once in a while. speaking of which i saw one a few days ago The Boy In the Striped Pajamas. very good movie, but good god, sooooo depressing.

lostpilot · Apr 23, 2009, 08:48 AM

The Boy In the Striped Pajamas is very depressing either.
the ending!

There Will Be Blood - 10/10

This was my 5th viewing and this movie just gets better each time. As much as I love No Country for Old Men, THIS deserved the Best Picture Oscar. Epic masterpiece...

Just watched "Doubt" last night. Dont know what all the hype was about. Shit sucked.
hahaha though that was funny. yeah i have no ambition to see that at all.
the acting is stellar, great performances from the whole cast. that's what the hype is about. go watch fast and the furious or something.

nah man. It's shit. The acting is great. But the story is shit. shit. shit. But I can see why you'd like it you sick fuck.
sorry it took so long to reply, but I just noticed ur amazingly retarded statement.

There Will Be Blood was awesome. I only saw it in theaters though, I'll have to rent it to re-evaluate.

first time you've seen it?

yeah awesome movie. love the final battle.

lostpilot · Apr 27, 2009, 09:10 AM

yeah, it was the first time I saw it!
why most nowadays scifi ain't this good?

whodunit? · Apr 27, 2009, 10:17 AM

because most technology, which was the most exciting thing in early scifi movies/books, happend already. except time travel and travelling to different galaxies.

I love reading old sci-fi books where the author describes a personal computer being a hi-tech.
besides, old sci-fi books/movies have an unforgetable atmosphere. most sci-fi nowadays reminds me of computer games, but withou a possiblity to control the main character.
despite what people say, I think THE WAR OF THE WORLDS was pretty last, goo, sci-fi movie. I was highly dissapointed with all new movies after that.

lostpilot · Apr 27, 2009, 10:39 AM

I just so wanted to have an instant read on 'Spider World' series by Colin Wilson. some post-apocalyptic huge-spiders sci-fi/fantasy (no clear borderline there). eh. I love sci-fi.

I'm assuming you mean the 1950s one and not the Tom Cruise one, lol.
