Hardest one so far for me.

I voted "The Good, The Bad & The Ugly", I expect it'll be a landslide in the opposite direction though.

#4222 Re: The Sunset Strip » Tony Scott confirms Alien prequel/remake » 910 weeks ago

I really liked "Alien 3", I thought it was a good concept as a sequel. Pretty unpretentious as well, given you might have expected a sequel to be the most expensive film ever made, given "Aliens".

As for "Alien: Resurrection", it was classified "18" over here, it definitely wasn't aimed at kids. It wasn't that great as a film admittedly.

I'm not sure if I ever saw "Grizzly Man", but the rest are all good to great films. Pretty cool diverse buys.

Apparently it's a documentary film about a guy that's spent 13 years of his life living with bears.

Yeah, I've seen my tastes in films change over the last 15 months or so. Maybe it's just because I'm getting older. I used to love comedy and anything Adam Sandler, but now I'm not really keen on the genre and the only Sandler movie I'll really watch these days is "Reign Over Me." Not saying I hate comedy just don't really watch the genre these days. I love Drama movies and films based on true events.

I've saw some fantastic films this year old, and new ones that I love to watch and talk about such as:


Lost in Translation
Broken Flowers
Sideways
The Wrestler
The Visitor
Changeling
In The Line of Fire
Million Dollar Baby
Gran Torino
Flash of Genius
Requiem For A Dream
The Pianist

What kind of movies do you generally watch?

Apart from the general whatever is big in the Cinema at the time, I watch alot of foreign movies i.e French, German, Japanese and Swedish ect...

I'm also a big fan of Spaghetti Westerns, Sci-Fi and War films. Really just nerd stuff.

I'm not so much into Comedy, I don't like Ricky Gervais or Simon Pegg stuff and I'm too old these days for "South Park" style humour. I don't dig Steven Seagal action movies either.

#4224 Re: Guns N' Roses » Trent Blasts Axl In New Interview » 910 weeks ago

I thought Trent was also supposed to have deliberately leaked several "Year Zero" (His last album for Interscope) tracks months before it's release too. I know it's not the same thing, but it was pretty radical compared to the usual artist.

...And for the record, I love "Gn'R", "Radiohead" and "Nine Inch Nails". However to me the only thing they have in common apart from great music is a synth machine.

I can't hear any audible comparison between "Pretty Hate Machine" and "Chinese Democracy".

#4225 Re: The Sunset Strip » Tony Scott confirms Alien prequel/remake » 910 weeks ago

Unnecessary, it was bad enough having the series linked with "Aliens Vs. Predator".

I wouldn't have minded a proper sequel, though.

Sincerest sympathies to their friends and families.

#4228 Re: GNRevolution Madness » GnREvolution Movie Madness - Round 1, Battle 5 » 910 weeks ago

If this was "The Empire Strikes Back", I wouldn't blink. "A New Hope" is my least favourite of the trilogy.

Due to my age, "Saving Private Ryan" is definitely something I remember seeing more for the first time. Great movie experience, from that visceral beach assault till the end.
