tegan Posted May 16, 2013 I unabashedly loved Tron Legacy enough to see it in theaters twice and then buy the Blu-Ray. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ucantalas Posted May 16, 2013 I liked it enough. I watched it once in theatres, but I went with friends after being awake for almost 2 days straight, so I slept through the whole thing... I then rented the DVD later on and watched it. it's not the greatest movie I've ever seen, but its far from the worst. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nachimir Posted May 16, 2013 It's a fantastic long music video, terrible film. I went in with that expectation and liked it as a result. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roderick Posted May 17, 2013 I was totally fine with Tron Legacy. It's arguably a much better film than the original Tron, which, really, let's not beat around the bush, for all its cult status, is a pretty big mess. Interesting, but a mess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gormongous Posted May 17, 2013 Saw the latest Star Trek. The performances were great all around, even poor Chris Pine, but the plot was an anemic, underwritten mess. It just wouldn't end! Starfleet just needs to stop making people admirals. They have like a fifty-percent chance of defection once they get there. Also, take a drink every time there's a countdown and/or a problem is solved by hitting something! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben X Posted May 17, 2013 Agree. Why "poor" Chris Pine, though? Great Gatsby is far too much melodrama slopped on top of a relatively restrained story, and the 3D is rubbish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gormongous Posted May 17, 2013 Oh, it's just that Kirk had the flattest character arc ever in the first movie and, though Chris Pine's physicality was good, he didn't seem to bring much else to the table then. Not with Into Darkness, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben X Posted May 17, 2013 Hmmm, I'd agree on the character arc, but I thought he was very versatile in the first one. Did good comedy, action, drama. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brkl Posted May 18, 2013 I haven't seen the new one yet, but they showed a really bad clip before a Daily Show interview a few days ago. Just Kirk standing, yelling at the Bad Guy while avoiding any expression through body language or facial expressions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
natetwoc Posted May 19, 2013 Saw Into Darkness yesterday and I'll really enjoyed it. Solid action, some great humour, and a good story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melmer Posted May 19, 2013 Seven psychopaths I heart Sam Rockwell Really enjoyed it! Very entertaining and clever. Made me laugh a lot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmuerte Posted May 19, 2013 I just watched The Devil's Advocate again, it's really awesome movie, despite Keanu's acting. Al Pacino is really awesome in this movie, he has a lot of those great monologues. I thought his ending monologue was much much stronger, but it wasn't. Either way, I like it when Pacino is ranting for a long scene. Also.. Jeffrey Jones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tegan Posted May 20, 2013 It may interest you that Pacino is only in it because Keanu offered to take a massive pay cut specifically so that they could bring Pacino on. ...I have a certain appreciation for Keanu Reeves. He's a crummy actor but he's the single nicest person in the movies despite the absurd amount of tragic shit he's had to deal with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ucantalas Posted May 20, 2013 So for the past few days I've been watching "Black Books", a British comedy starring Dylan Moran and Bill Bailey. It's one of the funniest TV shows I've watched in a long time....also, watched Star Trek: Into Darkness last night. It just kept going... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roderick Posted May 20, 2013 Oh man, I don't even know what's happening on that cover. The thinking must've gone as follows: Sean Connery played in the movie The Rock, so that could easily be mixed up with Dwayne Johnson, but then it wouldn't be complete without getting the name wrong. Sean Connery vs The Cock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben X Posted May 20, 2013 Black Books is great. Have you watched Spaced, Father Ted and The IT Crowd yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ucantalas Posted May 21, 2013 I've got several seasons of The IT Crowd on DVD, and I've seen a few episodes of Father Ted. Both shows are also fantastic. I haven't seen Spaced, however. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
