  1. Any movie that tries to be profound by showing off how "smart" and "artsy" it is, all while disregarding entertainment value or saying something at all. These are the kind of movies that try to show how "deep" they are by the intricacies of flowers floating in the wind and shit. Tree of Life and, in my humble opinion, the Master are perfect examples.
  2. The first was one of my favorite animated movies of the past five years. So funny and clever in both subtle and non-subtle ways. Everybody enjoyed this movie- I expect it to be the second straight September animated movie to pass the Sweet Home Alabama number.
  3. 1. Django Unchained2. Silver Linings Playbook3. The Dark Knight Rises4. 21 Jump Street5. Argo6. Zero Dark Thirty7. Wanderlust8. Lincoln9. Ted10. The Amazing Spider Man
  4. 1. 50/502. Warrior3. Django Unchained4. The Fighter5. Silver Linings Playbook6. The Dark Knight Rises7. Rise of The Planet of the Apes8. Inception9. 21 Jump Street10. Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows 2
  5. Wow, these are some fancy theaters. Back home, I go to a Regal theater in a shopping plaza or an AMC+Imax in a mall (Aventura, the world's most crowded). Up at college, I go to the AMC in Georgetown. All crowded, all diverse, always live and fun.
  6. I remember really enjoying this- solid, enjoyable, emotional entertainment. I wouldn't mind watching it again, and it was pretty much tied with Descendants as my favorite of the nominees (neither were close to a film like Warrior or 50/50). If any film from 2011 was overrated, self congratulatory fluff about film, it was Hugo. That movie was a bore, but this was fun!
  7. So either Argo gets a big time re-expansion (doubtful) or no film gets to put the Best Picture winner hype in their TV spots except Les Mis, which needs it the least, probably.
  8. I think Argo might take it home tonight, but this is probably the most intense the race for Best Picture at the Globes has been ever.
  9. Jackman was great in Les Mis. I know people that have played that part in productions of Les Mis, and it's easily one of the hardest parts to perform. He wasn't perfect, but to sing and act that well? I thought he was wonderful. I absolutely loved Cooper in SLP, but I can't take it away for Wolverine.
  10. Jackman absolutely nailed the combination between appreciation, confidence, calm, and emotion in his speech- pretty admirable.
  11. Affleck seems like an awesome dude, he should totally have run for Kerry's Senate seat.
  12. Give Jodie Foster a break, she's a legend. And her speech was more genuine and less rehearsed than any other speech- I respect that.
  13. Wow, amazing to see President Clinton there. He's the best. Lincoln is probably winning if they got Clinton. And Jlaw looks so fine.
  14. I think Waltz was so shaken up because of just how far he's come in three short years... from barely acting overseas to two time Best Supporting Actor
  15. Malcolm X certainly was a flawed person with some misguided ideals, but his motto of "by any means necessary" and his bravery in adhering to this idea despite the constant hate and threat around him inspired a generation of African Americans to fight for their rights and positive social changes. You can't look at him through a black and white lens.
  16. Also, yesterday featured perhaps the greatest NFL game in years, and another top drawer one later in the night. The Saturday numbers are fine.
  17. Gangster Squad was just a forgettable action movie, but I enjoyed it while I was in it! Also, It's kind of condescending to imply that all people who thought Haunted House looked funny/was funny are scum of the Earth.
  18. This is actually a pretty good weekend, considering it's January and football is in full swing.
  19. I don't think Hobbit is jumping that much today- playoff football the next two weekends, baby. That applies to all film, especially things like Gangster Squad. Django Silver Linings
  20. I actually enjoyed myself. It was stupid and cheesy and overtly stylized, but it was also entertaining and alot of fun. Nice, quick action movie, so just don't go in expecting Oscar and it'll be fun! Cast did a pretty good job all around.
  21. You can't fault people for wanting to see a movie with homophobic content if they had no idea it had homophobic content in it. I'm a huge supporter of gays rights and just saw Gangster Squad with my gay best friend, but before I came home and read this thread, I thought Haunted House looked hilarious and had no indication it was homophobic. That really sucks if it's true, but it could also just be typical crude Wayans brothers humor getting spun out of control to stir up some controversy to match the other films.
  22. Terry Crews stole White Chicks with one of the most iconic comedy scenes of the decade
  23. The Wayans Brothers was my favorite TV show as a kid, so I'm a fan of their work. Shawn is funnier, but Marlon is funny too.
  24. I don't have any problem with people saying Haunted House looks stupid- it does, but sometimes I just have to see a stupid movie. It's just being put wrong by some people (not you, baum)
  25. Haunted House looks hilarious. Some of the hating is a bit pretentious, but worse, the comments about Marlon Wayans are vaguely racist. I can understand not wanting to see it, but don't be so uptight just because it isn't about pondering the intricacies of human life through the movement of flowers or some shit.
