From what my mom has told me (she's read the trilogy) the last book gets preachy at the end, on top of everything else.indecks wrote:I watched The Hunger Games so I could be prepared to watch it with Rifftrax.
In a word: idiotic.
I've heard the books are worse. Wow.

yeah it was better than i thought it was going to be. i was a flash gordon fan back in the day so that part was awesome. still i think wahlberg was funnier in the other guys.Nintendork666 wrote:
Hilarious, surprisingly heartwarming, and the CGI was insanely well-animated. The film trips over it's own ridiculousness a couple times, and the pop culture jokes run pretty thin near the end, but I'd say overall the writing is solid.
I'm not much of a fan of Seth's shows, but I'd check out another film from him in a heartbeat. It's been a while since a new comedy film has made me laugh so much.

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?

Can't say it was a bad movie. Just very confusing...
Still, very impressive and very ambitious for such a low budget indie sci-fi movie.
Give it a try. You might like it. Or not...
Nice little detail: this was actually a Kickstarter project back in 2010...

Black Swan (2010) - This movie was trash...complete and utter trash...and I loved every minute of it! I went in knowing that it had gathered some Oscar nominations, and also that it was complete trash:

I was just not prepared for the extent of its trashiness. Needless to say, I was blown away. If you have a spare bottle of alcohol and 108 minutes, you cannot ask for a better film experience.

If I was a cop, I would give this a 9.
I'm not, so a 7 will have to do.
It's a good cop movie.

Indescribable. It's wonderful, but how do describe a movie that's about a movie that has a movie in it? I could mention the athlete, the Nazi occupation, liberation, but since this movie is barely over an hour I suggest you add it to your queue and watch it.
And if you're one of those "I don't like black and white movie" suck it up and give this a spin anyway. It's a bit of a roller coaster ride, but it is also a gem.

yeah I loved Black Swan. When it was over I realized that I had just sat through, and utterly enjoyed a film about ballet. Think about THAT!prfsnl_gmr wrote:Black Swan (2010) - This movie was trash...complete and utter trash...and I loved every minute of it!

Also, show me a man who says he's never had a crush on Portman and I'll show you a friggin' liar.

Black Swan is great. I like how it is left open to interpretation and for all we know Natalie may have lived and it all was in her head.
