    *** Official SPEED RACER Review Thread

    Saw this opening night at Arclight in Sherman Oaks. I really liked the movie. Some of the people in the theater hated it. They were talking out loud at how bad they were. These people sounded very pretentious, in the lame comments they were making. My favorite favorite favorite scene was...

    Iron Man (2008)

    After telling everyone how perfect RDJ was for this part, I was being told he had to fight really hard to be Iron Man. Who in the world were they considering for this? The only other person I could picture being Iron Man would be Christian Bale, and then I realized what other character he is...

    Showtime's "Dexter" Season 2

    I saw this mentioned in Entertainment Weekly (it was on the radar section as a miss) for this week. So how did that happen? Seems like a lot of stuff wouldn't be shown on network TV compared to Showtime.

    WGA set to strike - TV Season could be truncated/delayed

    So what does the strike do exactly? For now no union writers will work? Does this cause the other unions to have some reason to eventually strike?

    Heroes Season 2 thread

    I have a huge problem that I thought was going to eventually go away sometime during the season. Why are the special effects so terrible??? Every scene where there is a blue/green screen you can tell way too easily thats its there. Also Feudal Japan looks like Santa Clarita before the fires. It...

    Grindhouse - New Tarantino/Rodriguez film announced..

    A lot of people in the theater stayed through the credits last night and nothing happened at the end. It started to show some burning film and then the lights came up and the theater music turned on. My friends couldnt stop saying Thanksgiving in that voice. Too funny. I also thought it was...

    *** Official THE GRUDGE Discussion Thread

    I saw this last night at the Arclight in LA. The picture and sound effects were great. But I got a big headache from the noises halfway through the movie. I actually jumped at one scene where a guy slips, it was like hearing someone run their nails on a chalkboard. I jumped at that just because...

    I can't stand theaters....

    Thats funny that star wars is mentioned. The only really good times I have had at the movies has been when going to the first showing at midnight. I am thinking this is how I will see Spiderman 2. Oh and about those senior tickets instead of student tickets. I was actually told to do that at...

    I can't stand theaters....

    I didn't read every single post of this thread. But I personally have been getting really upset lately that the theaters all around where I live are constantly sold out for new movies. It doesn't matter what time of day the movie plays either. I finally started buying tickets online, but I...

    *** Official KILL BILL: VOLUME 2 Discussion Thread

    I didn't read every page of the thread. But what was that bleeping by Bill when talking to Budd about? you still hear him say me, but there is a beep. I really liked this movie a lot. Every little story in the movie had some purpose for later on. I really enjoyed vol. 2 more than I thought I...

    Kingdom Hospital ongoing thread (renamed)

    I thought it was creepy seeing that old Ambulance driving with no driver. I was curious though, what was the song that they were playing during the first episodes?

    Dishnetwork losing Viacom channels....

    So what subscribers saw those crawls? Was it only Dish, or did other cable/sattelite companies see them?

    Dishnetwork losing Viacom channels....

    $.06 may not be that much to some. But multiply that by the user base. Then don't forget if dish did sign this, what stops viacom from increasing that rate every so often to force them to pay more and more. Thats what I assume is the problem. Of course I am probably wrong. Good thing I don't...

    Dishnetwork losing Viacom channels....

    Does someone have a full list of all of the Viacom Channels? $1.00 doesn't seem like much since in Los Angeles you pay $5.00 for 7 major local channels. Plus the other whatever amount that was lost divided by the total amount. I wonder what the outcome will be.

    Dishnetwork losing Viacom channels....

    I kept wondering what those bars were that I was seeing during the weekend. We just got Dish about 3 weeks ago and have been having all sorts of problems taping shows while at work. We finally gave up with the vcr and decided to get the DVR receiver. guess what, those same shows don't record...

    Ruining sound in the theater on purpose, like the dots?

    whoever has had this happen want to list the city and what theater company? I am kind of curious since this happened to someone else in a completely different theater.

    Ruining sound in the theater on purpose, like the dots?

    I saw the ROTK midnight showing at the new (about 3-4 months old) AMC 16 Theater in Burbank, CA. Burbank is where all the movie and TV studios are, just in case this might matter. During the movie the audio was popping like a badly ripped mp3. This happened mostly in scenes with dialogue...

    The O.C. - ongoing thread

    the scene where seth is talking over the blender and then the blender turns off and he is still yelling and says "so that really does happen in real life". that was so funny!!

    Did anyone notice any color spots in the black and white fight scene? It was an orangeish color that just popped up really fast in the theater I saw it at.

    *** Official KILL BILL VOLUME 1 Review Thread

    I really liked this movie. At first I thought it was going to be very cheesey, but throughout the movie QT kept up a certain style thats not very common in movies. The one thing not really mentioned was the audio. I was just amazed at how well the sound was done. When Uma was walking around you...

    *** Official MYSTIC RIVER Discussion Thread

    I saw it last night and felt it moved kind of slow. I still think that they could have cut at least 30 minutes out and nothing would have changed. I wish the ending was different. It was predictable from about halfway through. I didn't really like it at all.

    Garbage Pail Kids Movie!!! Pics and Movie Clips Attached!!!

    I remember seeing this in the theater when I was in elementary school. No clue why my mom went with me to see it. Oh and they had people dressed up as the garbage pail kids walking around outside the theater for some promotion. I remember thinking the movie sucked and was happy we somehow got in...

    Saw "The Eye" last night

    Does the DVD still have the same beginning? There are a lot of scenes where you can't really tell if its going to be scary or not. I really liked that about the movie.

    Saw "The Eye" last night

    I went to go see The Eye last night. It's a Chinese horror movie that seems like it is getting a lot of good reviews. It's only playing at a couple of theaters in New York and in LA for a week. The theater was almost packed. It starts off really cool with an effect I have never scene done, and...

    Battle Royale. Any views on this??

    I really liked this movie. Its like Lord of the Flies. Kind of. Pretty violent. Basically kids are trapped on an island where they each get a weapon. The weapon depends on their skills. So the weak people get crossbows and guns. While the strong guys get as an example, a fan. So whoever is left...

    Yeah maybe that bar scene was cut down? Someone told me they cut a lot out of the final movie.

    *** Official "A MAN APART" Discussion Thread

    I saw it and I liked it somewhat. My girlfriend thought the movie was just ok. It has a decent amount of violence. There was some humor. The character who drives the nice cars in the movie is pretty funny. Vin Diesel does a good job for what the movie is. An action/revenge movie. Though there is...

    *** Official "HOUSE OF 1,000 CORPSES" Discussion Thread

    I started watching this and the movie is as bad as stated above. I am kind of surprised since the trailers I saw in theaters a long time ago made it seem like something else. The beginning scenes are truly weird. Definately not like the trailer makes it out to be. And those cuts don't make any...
