Is Turkleton funny at least?Skyline - 2/10
Lacking in storyline, uninteresting characters, unimpressive special effects. I almost walked out of the movie, fortunately it was a short movie ~1.5 hours.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1: 7/10
Went with my 9yr old son last night to the midnight showing. It was very good. Top quality production and direction of course. It's amazing how these kids have grown into good actors along the way. Movie stayed very true to the book. Is pretty damn dark (especially in the opening scenes) I only really "downgraded" it as it kind of stinks NOT to have the "resolution" of the storyline at the end of the movie (though I'm glad it was split into two movies) There's some slight little things they added that I just didn't agree with. It was odd in parts too as you could tell the scene was filmed to take advantage of 3D, but as you may or may not know, at the last min they decided not to release in 3D (Though I fully expect a re-release in 3D in June just before Part II is released).
Added "bonus": They double sold my reserved seats. So they had the handicapped area open. My son got a normal seat, I sat in a lobby chair and got 2 free passes.
Added Added "bonus": Emma Watson was looking gooooooooooooood.
Added Added Added "bonus": Lots ofkids seem to like to dress up for this movie. Nothing wrong with a theater full of girls running around in school girl outfits.
Ok... /dirty-old-man
wow. you are a dirty old man. but glad to hear the movie was good. might catch it during the day seeing as i have the day off.
I checked to see if a torrent was available for the History Channel documentary. I found one, but it's standard definition. I created an HD torrent from my TV recording. I didn't reencode it, so it's an original 8GB mpeg2 file. I'm trying to get it uploaded to my brother so there will be at least 2 seeds. This is the first torrent I've ever made. I don't think it's a big deal to share something that's already been publicly broadcast on TV...right? I hope I don't draw the attention of some Intellectual Property hounds.
Mr. Warmth: The Don Rickles Project - 7/10
Not a great documentary, and it gets a bit boring at times, but he is so damn funny and it's nice to hear some stories from him and other people.

you don't go through the trouble if it's only for me, I'm sure I'll find a copy eventually. I imagine it will be available soon, as it aired maybe a month or 2 ago? But if you have it up I guess I might as well grab it lol
Splice - 1/10
This movie was such a disappointment. I watched it yesterday on the way to and from work. When I got to work I had watched the first half and was excited to watch the rest of it on the way home from work. It started out pretty cool with a pretty neat premise.
Then on the way home from work I don't think I could have been more disappointed than I was. It turned into the worst piece of shit movie I've seen in recent years. I don't even want to talk about it anymore other than let people know it is one of the worst movies ever.
Mother - 7/10
A comedy/drama/mystery about a down on her luck mother trying to prove the innocence of her autistic son in a murder case. If you're not familiar with Korean culture, you won't really understand certain cultural mannerisms in certain comedic/pivotal moments throughout the movie. Other than that this was well paced and had a nice surprising climax. I could have given this a better score but I'm starting to get annoyed that the token autistic character is starting to be a trend in Korean cinema.

Not really sure I would go out and call it a comedy drama, rather it seems to have the dark, odd sense of humour found in many Korean films.
I absolutely love this film and was pushing it a lot a year ago (probably spammed this thread a couple of times); I've watched it 3 or 4 times now and I think it's really quite special. I like it even more than Memories of Murder and far more than The Host, which are two of Bong's other heavily lauded films.

I haven't seen Memories of Murder but The Host was pretty bad imo. I think maybe Bong is still tweaking his technique.
And odd sense of humor? Racist!
Korean humor in general boils down to either slapstick violence or a multi-layered play on words.
I see a few people like documentary films.
I found This Film Is Not Yet Rated on netflix streaming but haven't got around to watching it yet. I was wondering if anyone had seen it and what you thought of it.
I've look through and watched a good amount of documentaries on netflix streaming recently, but I don't think I've noticed that one. Seems interesting, I'll check it out.
