Watched "I Saw the Devil" with a friend, who hadn't seen it, last night.

Such a great movie.

Gonna watch X-Men: First Class tonight.

YES to X-Men. I coincidentally saw Devil just a couple nights ago again as well. Love that movie, the ultimate revenge movie. I would even go as far to say that it's one of my favorite foreign language movies. Definitely top 10.

Really looking forward to X-Men.

Heard nothing but great things.

Watched "I Saw the Devil" with a friend, who hadn't seen it, last night.

Such a great movie.

I presume you've watched a lot of Korean cinema then?  That country is churning out some of the most impressive films of the past decade...Park's Vengeance trilogy, Secret Sunshine, The Chaser, A Bittersweet Life, Poetry, Breathless... all amazing films.

Or maybe you just liked I Saw the Devil because it is a well-made horror film with a great argument on despair and revenge.

Also can't wait for Yellow Sea to come out here, that movie looks insane.

[theis]

I've seen the Revenge trilogy, A Tale of Two Sisters and I Saw the Devil. That's it.

Really wanna see The Chaser and The Good, the Bad, the Weird.

what about The Host? Gahh...

[theis]

Oh yeah, that also.

I thought it sucked.

[ben]

I think you'll really like the chaser.

I just recently watched Bergman's "Wild Strawberries".  I loved that movie. 

Amazing film. Had The Seventh Seal never been made, Wild Strawberries would be my favorite Bergman film.

X-Men: First Class.

Great, great, great. Second best movie in the series. X2 is still my favorite.

i watched red state the other day. I don't really know what to make of it. I mean, i like it, but i wasn't exactly blown away.

Thought that was an interesting flick. Nice to see Kevin Smith doing something completely different.

I thought it was pretty damn creepy when [spoiler]those horns started blaring. I was actually hoping that the rapture was really happening. That would've been one crazy twist. But yeah, it would've been hard to pull off. [/spoiler]

[defskull]

what about The Host? Gahh...

Saw this for the first time the other day. I thought it was terrible. After hearing great things for years I was greatly disappointed.

[bright lights, big city]

X-Men: First Class.

Great, great, great. Second best movie in the series. X2 is still my favorite.

Fassbender is so awesome.

[theis]

X-Men: First Class.

Great, great, great. Second best movie in the series. X2 is still my favorite.

Fassbender is so awesome.

Fuck yeah, he's indeed awesome. Can't wait to see him in Prometheus.

[ben]

I thought Kevin Bacon did a pretty good job...however, January Jones' acting was just awful.  Besides that, the movie kicks ass.  James Mcavoy was also awesome.

[bright lights, big city]

X-Men: First Class.

Great, great, great. Second best movie in the series. X2 is still my favorite.

Fassbender is so awesome.

Fuck yeah, he's indeed awesome. Can't wait to see him in Prometheus.

That cast looks amazing.

watched agnes and his brothers. gorgeous film. poor werner.

[chick de la lynch]

I saw A Place in The Sun a few nights ago. Great film. Reminds me how great of an actress Elizabeth Taylor was, not to mention how gorgeous the woman was. Very reminiscent of Match Point, which isn't surprising since Woody Allen has a tendency to steal from some great films. Oh, and Montgomery Clift was nothing less than handsome.

[blixa]

watched insidious last night. didn't think much of it, but i loved the fact that angus sampson was in it.

Attack the Block 8/10

Pretty much awesome. Loved the aliens. The only thing that bought it down a bit for me was how cheesy some of the shit the kids said.
Also the soundtrack is amazing
