What was the last movie you saw?

Anyone know what the weird german plane is that chops the big guys head off in the scene when Indy and Marion escape from the snake pit. Its like an early version of a Flying Wing.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but it was my understanding when the film first came out that it was simply a fanciful construct not representative of any real aircraft. Cool, though, until they torched it.

Yea that makes sense although the Germans did have some pretty strange big planes! Usually for night reccies

Just watched Star Trek 4, the Voyage Home. Funny how our tastes change over time. Used to not like this one much but I thoroughly enjoyed it!
I love it when Bones says to an amnesiac Spock 'Boy you really HAVE boldly gone where no-one's gone before!'

Wolverine.
Brainless. But Hugh Jackman in a vest or no top with shiny shiny metal out of the knuckles...
I liked it!

 

[katiafish]

Oh, also saw Lust. Caution.

Disturbing at best. Beautiful cinematography, worth seeing, but definitely not a "fun" film to watch.

Star Trek 5,the Final Frontier. Only seen this one once before. Another that uses the theme from TNG tho i think that is its original theme as it was filmed in 1989

Star Trek 5. urgh. Poor you. There is a theory that all the odd ones were't so good. i don't know about that, but ST5 certainly holds up that theory. (Especially as you got the undiscovered Country to watch next. Apart from the Wrath of Khan, that has to be the best trek film.

Re: the TNG music. Goldsmith originally did that score back in '79 for The Motionless Picture, and it was reused for the TV series plus four or five of the films. Never liked it.

On a happier note, I just watched the wonderfully daft (and gory) Planet Terror. Great fun.

Actually I quite enjoyed it! I like all of em really. Prefer the old crew tho!

Dude, there's NO WAY i'm getting involved in that one.

On a side note, are you looking forward to the new one? Are you going to see it? Do you think that the differences between this and all that has gone before is too much?

Yea i'm looking forward to it,but I look forward to any new SF movie. I don't know how it compares,people will tend to say it won't be as good as the original no matter what film or series it is. It may be pants,or it may be brilliant,there's just no way of knowing. And i'll be waiting till it comes out on DVD when i'll be able to watch it for free.

I just saw this again recently and had the exact same reaction. It was one of the most popular Trek films back in the day, but I didn't really like it. Awhile ago I watched all six straight through over the course of a few days (like you seem to be doing ) and really enjoyed it this time.

On a happier note, I just watched the wonderfully daft (and gory) Planet Terror. Great fun.

Also saw this one recently. And it is indeed a blast.

The last movie I saw wasn't Death Proof (the other part of the "Grindhouse" double feature), though - it was Reservoir Dogs. Definitely not Pulp Fiction, but definitely interesting.

 

[Jimmy Magnusson]

I've just made my way through all four Kino's Journey movies... All fantastic, but Emerging Lanes is on the top of the list.

 

[Duchessprozac]

Just got round The Dark Knight for the first time since I saw it at the cinema and I am truly blown away at how good a movie it is.

I am also still baffled how the BBFC only gave it a 12. For the first time ever, I believe they actually gave a movie a certificate lower than it deserved. I mean, it's more violent and mature than Daredevil and they gave that a 15.

Yea i believe we said that when we watched it. Definitely one for grown ups! And yet Star Trek Nemesis is a 15!(Wrath of Kahn is a 12)

 

[HoopyFrood]

I guess that was back before the days of the newfangled "12a" though.

Watched Pineapple Express again last night. Very funny.

I've just got back from seeing the new Star Trek film. Amazing film! I've never been too much into the whole Trek thing. I enjoyed it when I was younger, but thats about it. I loved the new film, its a great film. The actors are above par and take on their respective roles with severe talent for emulation. Spock is brilliant, a spitting image for Nemoy, and he's an exellent actor. The plot was great, kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. The effects are quality as well. They even take all the sound out of some of the space scenes, so its a little more believeable.

The chemistry between Spock and Kirk is spot on, and is the driving force behind this exelent film. I'd love to ask a question that bothered me about this film, that I don't remember happening in the original series, but I don't want to spoil the plot.

I would recommend this film to absolutely anyone, although the plot does conatin some great sci-fi only space-time continum, black hole theries and alternate timelines stuff, but other than that its one of the best films I've seen in a very long time. And that's coming from someone who's not a Star Trek fan.

How many times did I just use the word 'film'?

 

[HoopyFrood]

I gave pretty much exactly the same review/gush of my feelings about the film a few pages back. So it wasn't just a weird fluke on my part; the film seems to generally be having this affect on people (at least on those that enjoyed the series but wasn't a huge fan; I'm the same). I really, really enjoyed it.
