Movies you just recently watched

[Master]

Wut, seriously, it's still dragging on?

[MrBadGuy]

I watched a movie recently, yeah

[Keane]

Yeah, though like I said, it's unlikely it'll be anything worth seeing after the last two.

[Clara Knight]

I watched Lego Movie with Haruka and other friend weeks ago, then watched Frozen and Spirited Away with Haruka. Those movies were pretty cool.

[Master]

Lego Movie was truly awesome, I've yet to wholly see Frozen.

[MrBadGuy]

Just re-watched Lego movie with me pop, was better the second time round

[Keane]

I watched Gaurdians of the Galaxy, which I thought was pretty good. I more just enjoyed it for the general tone of the movie though, as the jokes only got a laugh out of me 50% of the time. They weren't bad jokes, just not entirely my humour.

[MrBadGuy]

Isn't there a raccoon?

[Master]

Hmm, I remember the actor of Amy Pond came in that.

[Shrooblord]

Actress surely.

I've seen Frozen twice now. First time, I was completely entranced by it. The second time, eh... not so much!

[Master]

D'oh, actress, silly me.

[Bradandez]

Okay so here's a list of movies I watched over the time I didn't have internet:

Horton Hears a Who
Team America
South Park: Bigger, Longer, & Uncut
Bad Grandpa
Beavis & Butthead Do America

[SegaNintendoUbisoft]

Saw Guardins of the Galaxy, probably my favorite movie of the year so far. It was a great blend of action and comedy. This and the Lego Movie have made me love Chris Pratt. Also, if you plan to see it, there's a certain character cameo at the end of the credits. A rather obscure one at that.

Watched Frozen some days ago. Good movie, Disney haven't done a lot of movies like this one by themselves in the last decade or so.

I also watched Blue is a warm color, which won Cannes festival last year. Long movie, story about homosexuality in Paris. It's great movie, not too easy to watch but not too, you know, high-caliber in terms of cinematography, which tends to happen a lot with Cannes winners.

I rewatched Fast and Furious 6, and I forgot that I liked it a lot when it went out in theaters last year. But with the death of Paul Walker, it is possible the franchise will stop after the seventh. I guess even if he had been here, it would have stopped there anyway, because it's becoming a bit too much like Die Hard.

The secret life of Walter Mitty : I particularly enjoyed this movie because the main character is very close to my own personality. I'm the kind of guy who dreams a lot and feels he doesn't ahve anything of very particular in his own life...until he gets on a unsuspected trip to Groenland and Iceland, and meets a lot of colourful characters. Dat movie :')...

So, I watched Sweeney Todd yesterday,
I liked it, I'm one of those musical people

And I saw Hunger Games yesterday as well
Liked it, book's way better though

Oh and I saw Les Misérables yesterday,
I liked it, I'm on of those musical people

Oh, and I saw Black Swan two days ago
Which is a great movie and Mila Kunis is in it <3

Oh, AND I saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (and The Great Gatsby, Bolt, Alice in Wonderland, Matilda and the Wolf of Wallstreet)

[beebo44]

And I saw Hunger Games yesterday as well
Liked it, book's way better though

If you're talking about the first one then I completely agree, first Hunger Games movie rushed through some of the most important parts of the book. If haven't seen the second movie yet I recommend it, it's so much better than the first and captures what Hunger Games is a lot more. Also they don't rush through the plot like with the first one..

Oh, and I saw Black Swan two days ago
Which is a great movie and Mila Kunis is in it <3

Fuck yea Mila Kunis!

I need to watch the I Am Number Four movie, because I've read the books and my friend says the movie is so bad in comparison. Can't wait to mock it!

Also, Knife of Never Letting Go movie adaptation NEEDS to happen! Best fucking book ever. Oh and a Skulduggery Pleasant movie! Come on movie directors you know this would work! >:c

I watched Gaurdians of the Galaxy today with some friends, and fell in love with it! Being a huge fan of comic on the Telly and Big screen since I was little, this movie put itself in places I could have only dreamed of before, not to mention all the 80's music! Also did anyone else note that the main character is named Peter and reads a message from a dead family member at the end of the movie? Cause that seems awfully familiar *looks at the amazing Spider-Man*

[Adsolution]

I'll summarise some movies I've seen over the past few months:

Amazing Spider-Man 2
Probably my favourite superhero movie next to the first Iron Man, it had everything: a stylish atmosphere, fantastic music, humour, drama and story, awesome villains, great characters, all that. It's probably the closest I've seen a film come to replicating the comic-book style its recreating whilst being entirely, one-hundred percent a film. I'm so happy that they didn't skimp out on the ending, it was very poignant. Also, my favourite line of the movie:

May: Peter, why are you still in bed, and why are you all covered in black?
Peter: Oh, I was cleaning the chimney
May: We don't have a chimney!
Peter: Whaaaaaaat

- Or something like that. Also, I want Harry Osbourne's haircut at some point. Also 2, Peter and Gwen are just the best couple in this movie. This movie is easily my favourite iteration of Spider-Man to date.


Malificent
Now this was a lot better than I was expecting it to be. I was expecting something insulting like Oz: The Great and Powerful, but this was actually very faithful and enticing. Angelina Jolie was perfectly cast; it's rare you see someone make themselves look so much like the original character, it was mind-blowing. There are two things that bothered me though, the first being story-related, the second being technical:

- The boy Sleeping Beauty was 'supposed' to wake her up, I understand what they were going for, it was supposed to be funny, but just felt too much like it was trying to be another Frozen with having [Malificent be her 'true love', and just tossing the boy aside].

- The scenes where it got super mystical didn't really mesh in with the style of the dark, brooding, natural looking forests. Overall, the movie was very stylistically inconsistent. They were all great styles, but they should have stuck with one.


A Million Ways to Die in the West
Despite the poor reviews, I found this thing hilarious. It was clearly small-budget and made not to be anything more than it is, and for people who love stupid humour. A shitload of people hate humour this stupid, and pass it off as dreck. But honestly now, when there actually are a lot of people who find this sort of stuff hilarious, like myself, people need to get off their high-horses (no pun intended) of trying to objectify quality humour. It's so few and far in between you get to see a cinematic release with humour so nonchalant and in-your-face. Also, Niel Patrick Harris had me laughing to the point where I could hardly breathe. Obviously this wasn't some brilliant work of cinema, but come on!


How to Train Your Dragon 2
Now this was a fantastic movie, my favourite of the year. It's the perfect follow-up to to the first. I love how they made Hiccup and friends look appropriately older. I don't have a whole lot to say, because it was just that good. The environments and animation are utterly beautiful, the best I've seen to date in an animated film, it's one you come out of feeling like you've just been on a grand adventure. Very inspiring.


Guardians of the Galaxy
This movie was good, but to me, not any more than that. It was built up to be this outrageously funny comedy-fest with boundary-pushing humour in an absurd genre, but it sort of ended up being a confused mix between it all. I mean, it was coherent with a good story and good humour, but too unfocused on anything in particular to excel in any of those areas.

Maybe it's just because I was really tired when I watched it, I might give it another go, and hopefully I'll like it more the second time around.

[Imco]

@beebo44
Yeah, I was talking about the first movie, though I have seen the second movie as well
I just hope the 3rd and 4th movie will be good, though I have my doubts when they split 1 book up to 2 movies
And I kind of hope they give the movie a different ending than the book, cause I didn't like the ending XD

[Dart]

@Ad amazing Spider-Man 2 was a good movie to be sure, but I hated how the theatrical trailor for it had spoiled the entire movie! despite that it ties with Gaurdians for movie of the year for me. And about GotG, if your not into the very obscure and well, jokes about the 80's, then chances are you just won't like it; which is cool if you don't, because its not like the movie is anywhere near perfect.
