I'm going to try to con Destin and them to see Funny Games with me tonight, if it's as bad as Tim says it is I have to force others to watch it with me.

No, terrible movie. Just as bad as Daredevil, but with Jennifer Garner running around crying about her dead parents and killing people.Pete McGiveris wrote:I haven't seen Elektra yet, someone was telling me there was a time-traveling sub plot, so I didn't bother seeing it.

Re: Official Movie Thread
I have not seen either Daredevil or Elektra. Perhaps someday.
I just recently watched Gran Torino. An excellent movie indeed. Clint Eastwood was great.

Re: Official Movie Thread
I seen Daredevil, I actually liked it. It wasn't GREAT but it was pretty decent and entertaining.
I never bothered to see Elektra. I'm a big fan of Marvel comic movies, and I seen them all, Blade, Punisher, The hulk movies.... etc etc. But I have no interest to see Elektra, it seemed dumb and pointless. Did she ever have her own comic? Why was she in a movie?

Yes, Elektra had her own comic, she was created by Frank Miller and first appeared in Daredevil #168 (January 1981)

Well I'm sure nobody gave a shazam! about the Elektra comics and it was pulled off the shelves and burned.

Why you hating on Elektra? She could kick Brock Lesner's bottom for you.

She's actually one of Marvels most lethal characters.

Re: Official Movie Thread
I just watched Ice-Age 3 in 3D, it was entertaining. Not a great storyline (was nothing really new), but the effects were neat. I'm looking forward to Coraline, by Henry Selick, the director of 'A Nightmare before Christmas'.
And I want to see 'UP', it's still not out here.

My daughter saw UP in 3D and loved it. I'm waiting for Ice Age 3 to go to the dollar theatre, then I'll take the kids.

Ice Age 3 may have to be Froot Loop's first theatre movie.

I think I'm going to see the new Potter movie on July 23rd, since it's Daniel Radcliffe's birthday. At least that's when my friend said we were going...

Re: Official Movie Thread
Being as I have a kid that asks constantly " Daddy will you take me to see this movie? " I have seen up and Ice age both in 3d... I was not very impressed with either movie. The begining of up should have been left out. Little kids dont need to see that crap and start a movie off crying. The humor in the movie was a bit over a childs intellect and a bit beneath mine. This was not so much a "kids" movie as it was a preteen to teen movie.
Ice Age was ok... I give it a 6 or 7 out of 10. Not as good as the first one but better than the second one. Deigo did not play a big of a role as he has in the other movies which is a shame because he has a good role in their "herd". Sid gets way to much screen time which is a shame because I findhis character annoying. and the weasel... Bruce I think his name is, is well... a few apples short of an orchid but makes a good character. He'd have been fun to have around in one of the other movies.

I myself did indeed enjoy it. I also just watched Death Race. An alright movie I suppose, but a let down overall.
