Yup, looks sweet

[theis]

awesome.

[defskull]

Unfortunately that trailer just made me want to watch that movie.  A lot more Joker than Batman in the trailer though.  But I am already going say that Ledger deserves a damn oscar nom for his portrayal.  I'm so used to him being subdued with an American accent similar to a Southern accent, but you can't even tell it's him really.


Summer 2008 needs to come sooner.


But yeah the "vampires" were bad looking in I Am Legend. 

[thesongyousang]

like how poison still tours but their shows arent nearly as good as those 20 years ago

Are You Gay? or really old?

and i really like shia lebouf

edit:    nm sounds like your'e both.


Im waiting for the new Harold & Kumar.
Ill spend 6 bucks on that I guess.

lolz @ quoting old stuff.

The book wasn't so hopeful either.  The "I Am Legend" bit is because the survivor was feared by the vampires because of his immunity, the reverse of what originally happened where humans were afraid of the infected.  Also the vamps were intelligent and evolved to where they could survive in the daytime, and the protagonist systematically slayed them during the day and hid at night, when they would come to his house and call his name and taunt him.  That's why it was a bit of a disappointment.  And they could've done a whole hell of a lot better with the creatures for sure.

Saw I Am Legend, wasn't too bad but didn't have the feel of the book or even the earlier versions.  Will Smith did better than  I thought he would .  CGI was embarrassing though.

damn, it looked like a video game. a shitty one at that. they should have used real elements. smith gave a hell of a performance, though. i wont buy it when it comes out on dvd, but a had a good time at the movies.

first off, i am older than most people on ths board and while im not a poison fan, their live show rawks...or it once did. as for the shia thing, i would totally do him the butt speaking of which, is there a more homoerotic movie than harold and kumar?

[thesongyousang]

I really liked that movie.


Two really good movies I saw recently:

Sweeney Todd and Juno.

I was very impressed with both.  And those who don't like musicals, I still recommend Sweeney Todd.  It takes a song or two to get used to, but it's worth it.

[theis]

how awesome is Juno?

i really wanna see it.

[defskull]

How awesome is it? I plan on seeing it again very soon.

If you enjoyed Thank You For Smoking (Jason Reitman's last movie, then you will like this.

watched mr beans holiday. i havent laughed so hard in ages. im not going to compare rowan atikson to masters such as chaplin and keaton but his physical comedy is amazing

[defskull]

juno was just as good the second time.

[theis]

just watched knocked up for the third time...still amazingly awesome.

i watched the extended dvd release and the added scenes are awesome. the bonus features are hilarious too.

perfect comedy.

[13hourstoparadise]

I want to see Juno, looks great.

I saw 'A Scanner Darkly' - holy shit Woody H. is so fucking funny, worth a watch!

[Nailec]

bananas is pretty funny and match point has its moments. i really liked his performance in antz too. just be careful tho, there are many stinkers in the filmography of woody allen.

What's the deal with watching movies so many times in such a short period.
