Current movies discussion (Here there be SPOILERS)

[hemntjrseth]

I really need to see Transformers and Harry Potter.

This will be the first time that I see a Harry Potter movie before reading the corresponding book. Who wants to spoil it for me? XD

EDIT: First thread and post of this forum. Woot.

[jedislave]

haha I refuse to spoil it .. but its sooo good.. This one was the 2nd best.(the 4th was the best for me). Theres a huge fight scene at the end which I love.. you'll definitely have a good time! :)

[Gingey]

I wont spoil it either, but watched it yesterday.....and it was flippin' fantastic, very enjoyable :P

[Nimiety]

I just seen Transformers and the new Harry Potter a few days ago, Transformers looked good but the story was .. weak. if you're a fan of the original you might be a bit insulted with it but it looked amazing.
Harry potter was pretty good too, i agree.. it might be the second best (second to the prisoner of azkaban) but i defently enjoyed the book more...the movie sort of relies on people to have read the book i think to pick up on everything thats going on in the movie.

[Readout]

But the death scene, (whoops. It slipped out.) was under-played. I rekon they should of had less swoopy-aparating and more slo-mo falling. Because slo-mo falling and sad music are the best way to kill people.

[hemntjrseth]

Oooh... I love [s]anti-[/s]climatic fight scenes.

Is it really emo like movie 4 or not?

[Gingey]

*Agrees with Readout*
And also in this one Harry was sposed to go a 'lil nuts at certain people and lose his temper, and violence makes me happy, but he didn't :(

[hemntjrseth]

Gah... weak stories. One of the many things that ruin a good movie.

[stokerbramwell]

Haven't had a chance to see HP5 yet. I plan to, but I must confess the appeal of the movie for me is vastly overshadowed by the release of the final book at the end of the week.

Who here has seen Ratatouille? And if you haven't seen it yet...WHY? WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU??

[UchihaSasuke]

I want to see Ratatouille so bad, I am seeing it next week.

[hemntjrseth]

I haven't. *withers in shame* I got distracted by Mr Bloom getting tied to the sea and ruining a [s]stereotypical[/s] happy ending. Pirates was a good movie... but I expected more.

[Riku]

I want to see Ratatouille to..But, I'd probebly go see Pirates again instead...Johnny overpowers me. x3

[LittleKuriboh]

This thread needs some kind of spoiler warning...

[hemntjrseth]

Agreed. *edits first post to include that*

[Safty]

Not to worry my love...I think the Mods will have to make a rule for the community that if someone wants to post something they MUST but a Spoiler warning in the title.

But whilst we're on the subject of movies, Hairspray's out this week, YEEEEEEAAAAAAY!

[hemntjrseth]

Fixed. :D

[hemntjrseth]

Some people don't like John Travolta anymore but I still do. *big Grease fan*

I'll be seeing Hairspray because it looks entertaining and fun.

[Safty]

I'll be seeing it because it's a musical...and I already know all the songs from the soundtrack. XD And it gives me a excuse to sing along in the theatre like I did when I saw Happy Feet.

[hemntjrseth]

XDDDD

Musicals make great movies. -insert reference to random musical made movie here-

[emptyflowers]

The book was super emo... what with Harry yelling in OMG CAPSLOCK every few pages...

Transformers kicked some major ass...

I still need to see Ratatouille. Pixar movies own my soul

[hemntjrseth]

I've been hooked to Pixar since Toy Story. The 90s were awesome.

[emptyflowers]

Indeed they were :D

[Kaze]

HP5 was pretty lame... Even worse if you've read the 5th book before.
Transformers is only fun if you go in with low expectations and ignore the lack of plot. Regardless it was pretty damn entertaining.
Live Free or Die Hard remains amazing. It's so over the top and IN AMERICA.

[hemntjrseth]

I kinda miss the 90s. But I can't really complain... I need my iPod. The 90s were seriously lacking when it came to nifty gadgets.

*kicks thread back on topic*

[hemntjrseth]

What did you like best about Live Free or Die Hard, Kaze? Storyline, special effects, visual effects, characterization? Or just all of it?

[s]I think that we need a movie review thread... yes... yes we do.[/s]

[CrazyMage]

I saw Ratatouille and its the best thing I've seen from Disney in a while! I saw Harry Potter last weekend and I loved it I just was upset some of my favorite parts where not in the movie. and I always imagined Umbridge as a grumpy frog lady, and this one was jsut passive agressive.

[hemntjrseth]

It's sad to say that most movies fail when it comes to properly portraying the books that they are based on. *tsk tsk*

[Tapioca]

I didn't like Harry Potter 5 either, too much was cut out, and it was sort of disappointing, I didn't feel it did the book much justice. Shortest movie for one of the longer books, the DVD better have a lot of deleted scenes...

[hemntjrseth]

It will... and cost twice as much to give you what you wanted in the first place.

[Tapioca]

Tickets at my local theatre are only $5, not $10, as I'm guessing you were saying yours were...then again, popcorn and soda really rack up the price...
