Despicable Me 1 and 2. Great films :)
Also Alien, my favourite film of all time.
Aah I wanted to watch Looper. Will see if it is out on BR/DVD.
Just got "Oblivion" to watch, good reviews
Aah I wanted to watch Looper. Will see if it is out on BR/DVD.
I dunno about BR, but I have it on DVD. Think it was £7. That is the most I will pay. Wait long enough and they all end up at £3 anyway.
It's well worth watching, it's a good film. Just maybe one that isn't going to age very well.

Moonrise Kingdom
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1748122/ (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1748122/)
one of the best films I've ever seen

loads of famous people in it too, Bruce Willis. Edward Norton, Bill Murray
:-)
After a collision with a shipping container at sea, a resourceful sailor finds himself, despite all efforts to the contrary, staring his mortality in the face

"the station agent" is highly recommended "being john malkovich" is another.
At the age of 21, Tim discovers he can travel in time and change what happens and has happened in his own life. His decision to make his world a better place by getting a girlfriend turns out not to be as easy as you might think.
i know saying "the best movie i have seen" is very subjective, but see what you think of "the visitor" this is by the same director as "the station agent" watch it before you read the reviews, they just don't do it justice. turn off the phone feed the cat and sit back and enjoy. definitely one to watch without interruption's.

1984, Animal Farm, and now Snowpiercer.

Absolutely amazing. A cinematic microcosm of society. For those of you uninterested in topics like '1984' and 'Animal Farm', watch this film for a hazard course in understanding the human condition. From start to end you see a small-scale depiction of society from it's most basic 'proletariat' level, right up to the elite, in perfect order. And we see the evolution of civilisation from simple beginnings to science, education, quality, luxury, then hedonism, wastefulness and eventual demise, in exactly that order.
All of that can be overlooked, however, if you're just the average movie-goer who simply wants a good story with a hero, an adventure and an end goal. In which case I say the film is a good one but nothing special in that respect. Certainly there were parts where I thought, "eh?", until it clicked later that it was all part of the Director's greater cinematic design.
But for the arty film student types, this film is sure to be the topic of many, many essays for years to come.
Clearly every part of the film was deliberate - every shot, every line of script, every item in the background. It was true art. None of that quick-buck profit-incentive Hollywood stuff.
In conclusion I recommend this film to everyone, particularly people who want to learn something or gain some insight from what they watch. For the everyday movie-lover, go into this with an open mind and have a really long think about how you can compare it to the world today.
Top stuff, 10/10
Sounds interesting.
Just wading through my collection to decide on tonights viewing.

I'd watch it again, but I've watched it twice now. I'm wary of not leaving enough time between re watching good films, in case I get bored of them, and it puts me right off.
I watched a few too close together, and can't sit through them now.
Err, something a bit different from my normal fare.
The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe.
No, I haven't gone stark staring bonkers. It's actually pretty good.
If you thought the book was good, sat reading it on your Aunties knee when you were six years old, then you'll like the film.
I really should read the book again.
there’s rarely any certainty about what’s real and what Dave and John have unintentionally conjured from their drug-addled, reality-warping subconscious. Still, there’s an underlying sense that the pair are taming the drug as the adventure progresses, and by the end of the film the ratio of chemically-induced terror to chemically-induced heroism (a twisted, non-traditional sort of heroism, but heroism all the same) gradually shifts into their favor. It’s a subtle transition that could’ve been easily overdone – or even not done at all – but Coscarelli does a nice job of turning his aimless slackers into our dimension’s best hope for survival.
and at julianF, john dies in the end is some freaky shizz film, reminds of fear and loathing in las vegas which was good...
