Battle Royale Directed by Kinji Fukasaku was very good.
I enjoyed Transformers
I did not enjoy the new Harry Potter.
I watched Match Point the other day...not bad.

I love battle royale![/QUOTE]

Have you seen B.R. II? If not I wouldnt worry too much..its pretty much crap. IMO.

A few more good ones if your into Japanese Action/fantasy:
Casshern dir. by Kazuaki Kiriya
Shinobi dir. by Ten Shimoyama
Shadowless Sword dir. by Young-jun Kim (this one is Korean actually)

yeah battle royale II was total crap, agreed, I am not big on sequels anyway I never expect too much at all

These are older classics aren't they?

Casshern dir. by Kazuaki Kiriya
Shinobi dir. by Ten Shimoyama
Shadowless Sword dir. by Young-jun Kim (this one is Korean actually)

I like takashi miike's stuff and he -never-disappoints.

j-horror is more my genre

sherryberry · 07-23-2007, 01:52 PM

Don't worry, brick and death, i plan on seeing the original first. prob be renting it soon.

Slummy · 07-23-2007, 01:53 PM

Apparently Casshern was an old anime. the movie was released in 2004. (thanks Wiki!)
Shinobi was was relased in 05 I think?

I will definitely check out takashi miike. Cool thread too!

well, I will say this for alpha dog, I think they tried to keep the story based on evidence and the real sequence of events so writing was limited, it is one of those "is what it is movies", nothing spectacular that's for sure

vodkalush · 07-24-2007, 07:16 AM

battle royale!!!!!!!!!!!

brickhardmeat · 07-31-2007, 11:55 PM

I finally saw 300 tonight. It was good.

eTiMaGo · 08-01-2007, 05:43 AM

I still haven't seen it, ordered the HD version though, should be here in a few days

Surf's Up was surprisingly good, very charming and fun movie, a step away from the norm of CGI animated movies... And the CGI water? Amazing...

brickhardmeat · 08-15-2007, 09:56 PM

eTiMaGo · 08-15-2007, 10:39 PM

Saw Redline recently... OMFG it makes the first Fast & Furious or Torque look like cinematic masterpieces... Though I guess it is a pure unashamed concentration of what guys like: fast cars, skanky girls, cheesy one-liners, guns and fistfights...

brickhardmeat · 08-15-2007, 10:42 PM

The WORST movie I've seen recently was Pathfinder.

terrible

that bad eh? my bf insisted on renting it. i had no desires of seeing it.

i saw bridge of teriabithia lately. i didn't read the book so i had actually thought it'd be like another chronicles of narnia fantasy type deal from the trailers.
