Edit: A few too many spoilers for a review thread. Moved to Discussion.

This is probably close to the edge, but we've had discussions about subjects like this successfully in the past. Having seen John Waters newest film, I came away both very impressed and strikingly moved. The film is very funny, packed with message, and passes the top normally reserved for...

Caught this and was quite pleasantly surprised. I had feared that the overly revealing trailer had ruined it for me, but being devoted to Julianne Moore and everything she works on, I was compelled to go. She is, as I had hoped, excellent in the film as the lead. The role calls for a lot of...

I've been casually following the available MMORPGs lately to see any new developments. I enjoyed my few months with SWG a great deal, but eventually grew out of it. City of Heroes caught my eye both from what sounded like mostly positive beta experiences from some people and a unqiue...

I'm looking for both The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions and the accompanying soundtracks for both. I have the scores (thanks Josh), just need the movies themselves and the music soundtracks. Here is my trade list. I'm just fine going for lopsided trades or any other deals, so...

Methinks you mean to post in the other Kill Bill thread. ;)

Was able to catch the sneak of Walking Tall. I should say up front that I was aware of the original and a bit of the source story, but was mostly walking through clean. I can't comment on how it compares. It has been some time since we had a vigilante movie, of which I think I would consider...

A question for you all, I've been thinking about TV show releases that would never ever happen. Daily entertainment programs become one of the key ones. The real problem there is in terms of storage. There is just too much content and too much time needed. I've been thinking of The Daily Show...

http://www.angryalien.com/0204/exorcistbunnies.html I should mention that it is, as would befit this film, enacted by animated bunnies. Spoilers within!

I should probably preface this with my love of Mamet films. So many desirable characteristics, from the tight plotting, great characters, hard and unique dialogue, and some of the most beautifully obscure and interesting phrases ever. I've also been quite impressed with his ability as a...

Let me start off by saying that there are some actors that I will see just about anything they're in. Ashley Judd is one of them. So, I was obliged to see this regardless of the critical drubbing it's getting on RottenTomatoes (a resounding 1% at last check). It's probably deserved. This is a...

Caught a sneak of Starsky and Hutch and was entertained by what I saw. I've learned not to underestimate any movie, and that this is a movie based on a television series was no reason to think less of it. What you'll get out of the deal is a fairly good action comedy with nice period details...

Caught a sneak of Miracle and thought I would share the experience. Sports movies have one of the most rigid structures in all of film. They start with a down on their luck team, a newly hired coach with a past, and a motley crew of kids who can't work together. He then ties them together by...

Time to thin the herd, as I usually do this time of year. Hoping to find a good home to these fine films. I have a specific want list, but if there is something you would like to offer, feel free to look over my collection first to see if I already have it. Trade list: The Alien Legacy...

I believe it sets a high bar for most kinetic movie ever made. Even the effects shots are hyperactive. Consider one shot that has a street chase where someone hits their nitro injection button and the movie flows through the engine, follows the combustion, then flys through the riders brain and...

I'll be catching something tonight in my bid to prep myself for the upcoming awards. They are typically very slow to get as many of the potential award winners here, so I'm sort of in a privileged position. My choices basically come down to: 21 Grams Elephant House of Sand and Fog In...

"Plus, STARZ! Cinema features Widescreen Wednesday, which showcases movies in their original theatrical formats." I noticed an advertisement today that Starz was beginning a 'Widescreen Wednesday' on one of their stations. Although it may not seem like much, it's the closest any of the...

This is so good and inventive as to be unbelievable. :) Movie link (just left click and it will start)

As an offshoot to the 28 Days Later thread, I thought it might be a good exercise to discuss scary movies. No so much which movies are scary to you (or perhaps that none are), but what it is that makes them scary. I was giving this some thought because the feedback from some was that the film...

Here is my list of trade available DVDs. See if there are any you are interested in. For trade: Being John Malkovich Blood: The Last Vampire (Anime) Boondock Saints Cube Dagon The Fast and the Furious Gladiator La Femme Nikita High Fidelity Ice Age Jacob's Ladder Manhunter...

I was able to catch a sneak of Hollywood Homicide. Not bad as buddy cop movies go, and certainly better than those we've been subjected to recently (such as Showtime and National Security). Both Harrison Ford and Josh Hartnett give a lot of effort to make this work. Both of the characters...

I'm going to have to go against the grain here and say that I think it was a good effort. Let me qualify that by saying that I went in trying to like the film despite the nearly unanimous negative response to it. I found it to be creepy, funny, and at times disturbing. I will completely...

I've managed to whittle down my To Sell collection down to a few unfortunates, so my trading capability is pretty darn slim. So here is a desperate attempt to clear out my Want list through raw purchasing power and a little luck. I'm interested in practically any offer that is less than the...

It turns out that previous well respected HTF member Scott Weinberg has been caught plagiarizing his reviews. Betraying all of the faith the public previously had in online critics, Mr. Weinberg was seen entering a warehouse on April 1st where the particular mechanism for his plagiarism was...

A friend of mine has an older RPTV, probably late 98/99 Mitsubishi. He has a problem recently that he asked me about, but I'm stumped. Outside of just saying "it's broke", I was wondering if any of you may have an idea. Please bear in mind that this was the description that I received, so it may...

I believe that this may go down as being the one movie that made the most "mistakes made in a Stephen King adaptation". This is not to say that it is the worst Stephen King movie (which I think is The Mangler), but rather the one that has collected and committed the most mistakes ever. I will...

May be in poor taste given our current climate, but I think we could all use some humor now and then. *Warning : Some language is used* http://titaniumcounter.com/temp/emergency/

Every time I am presented with Pirates of the Caribbean, I am reminded of the worst function of teaser trailers. They have little or no actual content to present, but have to encourage you that the movie will be good. I think there are a couple of things that I really hate in these kinds of...

I've found myself in a tough decision. I had just about convinced myself to finally get a pet. I was going to get a cat because they are a good deal more independent and can survive longer given my more erratic work hours. However, my apartment requires a $150 non-refundable fee, $150 deposit...

Was watching this again and had a small question. Some spoilers below. The package that he recovers on the island and does not open has a unique wing-shape image on it. He uses this image on the sail he creates as well. When he returns to civilization, he returns the package to the sender...
