I hope to see Creed today.

 

[JEDI]

I'm hoping that keeping to the ideals that are Deadpool that when they take that extra $50 million that the sequel will undoubtedly get and decide to spend it on boobs. I'm thinking that there should be a call out in Hollywood for every actress willing to do the worlds largest orgy scene. Make it a dream sequence, or just Deadpool imagining it for the audience's benefit. $50 million, one scene of thousands of naked women squirming around in a giant pool filled with jello. This is how Deadpool spends $50 million.

ahh yes.. 4th wall.
deadpool will mention how much $ his first movie made.

Chef - 9/10
Great movie. Would be awesome to just cook and drive across the country making bank and having people want to eat your food. The only thing missing would be a bathroom/shower. Is there such a thing as an RV converted into a food truck?

 

[Homerboy]

Sicario 8/10

Decent movie. Great atmosphere and "tension" throughout the whole thing. I thought the score was just fantastic for setting the mood in every scene. Excellent acting all around I thought. Though Josh Brolin annoys the hell out of me, but I think that's the point of his role -- he's supposed to be sort of a smarmy dude you're not supposed to fully trust/feel comfortable around.

I'm confuse though... Exactly why did they need an FBI agent with them during these operations?

CIA not allowed to operate on US soil, so FBI is the paperwork

Ahhh yeah. Duh.

That's why they needed her to sign the paper at the end too.

Thanks.

Not exactly.

If I remember right, the paper was saying everything was done by the book. Obviously it wasn't, so think of that last paper as more of an insurance policy. Since she signed it, now she can't turn them in because that would basically expose her cover-up.

From memory, so this might not be 100%:

which is present on the soundtrack (and on the theatrical release) but not on the Alternate Version.
Seeing Audrey 1 die for the first time was shocking, i got to confess. The rampage scene kinda makes a mockery of the tragedy, i think the happy ending just works better.

Hoping to watch Deadpool tonight (which means tomorrow, nightshift).

You gotta admit though: that scene was AMAZING for its time. No CGI! It had to be half the movie's budget just... tossed away, right there, to have a happy ending.

 

[Charmonium]

Anyone watch Fox's Bordertown. It's been on for a couple weeks. I've enjoyed most of the episodes so far.

close enough. IMDb has detail in the Trivia section (can't access it now) but if i recall correctly, a million bucks. the plants are done by Jim Henson, the Muppets guy ... that's why they are so cool.

CGI sucks. i think very few films use it well .. The Matrix. a couple Star Wars explosions. if you want cool, you got to go puppet!
The Thing ... what more do i need to say.

 

[weirdichi]

The Mermaid - 5/10

Meh. I think the trailer had me expecting way too much. It's mostly slapstick comedy, so don't go in expecting witty dialogue. Also, the CGI just distracted me so much, which I know shouldn't because it IS a Stephen Chow movie, that I just didn't laugh out loud like I did with Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle. I might have missed a lot of the jokes as well because something clearly was lost in the subtitles. All the Chinese viewers were laughing at dialogue where I didn't think was that funny.

Wait for the home release unless you get dragged by a cute girl to go see it.

 

[DigDog]

Shaolin Soccer is a masterpiece, i'm not surprised the comparison didn't hold up.

btw, have you in the past been sold a PPI? you might be owed some money!

god i am so bored ..

one of my fav kung-fu film is a Hindi film, called

Chandny Chowk To China
google it, firewall at work blocks almost everything.
edit: found it, www.imdb.com/title/tt1091229/ don't be fooled by the miserable 3.9 rating.

entirely in hindi (easy enough to find subtitles), it's the story of a Indian guy, adopted at birth, who works in Chandny Chowk, a cheap food market in Calcutta (i think);
he's a nice guy but not exactly a genius, constantly daydreaming of becoming someone special, so much so that he spends all his money for fortune readings, getting scammed by fake gurus who tell him he was a prince or warrior in his previous life.
now, one of these scam guys, who's sort of a friend to the hero, meets some chinese farmers who have travelled all the way to India to find a mysterious warrior, and they will pay good money $$$ cha-ching!

obviously the scammer passes off his friend as the warrior.

what follows is a mixute between Los Tres Amigos! and Kung-FU Panda, with the hero becoming a great kung fu warrior in 3 easy lessons.

Yeah it's got the occasional everyone-bursts-into-song scene (it's bolliwood, mmk?), but all together i think this film really hit the sweet spot - it's funny, kickass, and uplifting. The ending could have been tighter but i still recommend it.

7.5/10

 

[thedarkwolf]

Meet the Feebles 4/10
Early Peter Jackson. This is a WTF movie. There are some flashes of brilliance and I'm glad I finally watched it but I think you need to be high really high to truly enjoy this movie.

 

[christian1990]

I saw Creed last night, 8.5/10

 

[SP33Demon]

Um...what do you think food trucks are?

If you saw the movie, it doesn't have a bathroom. You can't exactly pull off a country-wide trip pissing and shitting in alleys. And most food trucks in DC don't have a toilet on the truck either, which is why I'm wondering if RVs can be converted to food trucks which include sleeping quarters and toilets.

I would think there may be some health code violations with sleeping and pissing/shitting in the same general work space that you prepare food in.

Not to mention from your personal viewpoint, your bedding and clothing may end up wreaking pretty badly being that close to a kitchen.

My point is that a food truck is a converted RV, more or less. The conversion probably involved removing the bathroom for something that is more needed? Or, maybe some of them have bathrooms? I dunno.

I think those guys find other public places to piss when they need to. I see them parked at gas stations and such from time to time, and not just getting gas. I imagine that many of them only park to serve in certain spots for blocks of time, then go somewhere else. Plenty of food trucks are basically permanent, though, but those are almost always associated with a bar or a food truck court in a public space that has utilities.

I saw the movie, and I liked it.

i think you got it wrong on her getting exposed, this is meant to be a family friendly film; or i don't know, but i've never seen her tits.

there is an alternate ending where the blond girl (audrey) gets eaten by the plant. other versions are either the theater release (seymour and audrey live) or the .. director's cut? where ALSo they both live, but some scene are slightly different, and IIRC there is 1 extra song.
(i belive this is The Meek Shall Inherit)

what the hell?

a food truck. there was never a bathroom in here. This was never a conversion:

a converted trailer that is now used to serve food:

 

[Perknose]

Food Truck. In my peregrinations, I have seem many. I have never seen one that was a converted RV. They have all been converted from large commercial delivery vans? Why, you may ask? Price. A used RV would be far more expensive than a used delivery van.

 

[duragezic]

This looks good:

I'm not saying we're all wrong, but

I most certainly would not buy food from either one.
