i saw this a few months ago. not sure if i've mentioned the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo before, but it's really good. i don't really care about the American remake when the original is so damn raw. i think redbox/netflix has it. watch it if you haven't already.

Loved these.  Just finished the trilogy a few weeks ago.  Each one was great.  Lisbeth is one of the best characters ever.   So bummed they are remaking this, even if David Fincher is directing it.  Bummed.

Just watched Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion with my dad. I wasn't aware to the extent of how
tragic the situation was and is. China will be the end of the world.

Bummed that Fincher's next movie is a remake more than anything.

while I'll admit you shouldn't fuck with Carter, I rewatched this a couple of nights ago



Caine is fucking brilliant when given the right material, unfuckwithable in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Ipcress File, Zulu, Alfie, The Eagle has Landed, Batman, Miss Congeniality, Without a Clue, Goldmember.  Easily one of my all time fave actors (esp as he's British)

He has soooooo many brilliant lines in this


Dominic: Shouldn't we synchronise our watches?
Charlie Croker: Nuts to your watches! You just be at the Piazza at a quarter to...

Garage Manager: You must have shot an awful lot of tigers, sir.
Charlie Croker: Yes, I used a machine gun.

and the obvious 'You're only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!'

I'm sorry but John Wayne was the weakest action hero ever. Lethargic, emotionless delivery and the way he hobbles around like he's fighting a bad case of gout or something. Where's the beef, I ask you?

I am eager for someone to give me the lowdown on saw 7 3d or whatever they are calling it.  any good? is it a decent ending to the series?

I'm not expecting much. at this point it has simply become a habit to see a saw flick every year

Though not very good.


The assembly cut, NOT the theatrical.

the assmebly cut is leaps and bounds above the theatrical and in my opinion is easily the equal to the first and second films. I think the fact that it is so bleak from the get go that it really puts people off. personally i think it is amazing. (btw aliens is my fav followed extremely closely by aliens and 3. 4 is average)

Disappointing they decided not to release it in the form Fincher intended. And yes, does carry itself almost as well as the first and Aliens.

from all the making offs it was doomed from the start. there were too many money men having thier say. fincher was a young director at the time and the the producers were fucking him up from day one. I would love to see him tackle it now with the power and how respected he is now

 You and the D00D have turned this thread into a horrible head-on-collision between a short bus full of regular kids and a van full of paraplegics.

Gran Torino was really good. Pretty sure Clint Eastwood didn't unclench his teeth once.
