The Panda

I agree, American hustle is technically great on anyway from all of performances, the direction, script, yet it just felt a little artificial is a way. I really liked it but I guess I could say it tried to be to much and inflated itself a bit, maybe to over the top with to much going on. I'm not complaining though, I really liked it. I think my biggest problem was it just seemed as of it played it safe.That said, I found Wolf to be a much better movie, it was more entertaining, more ambitious, and much deeper in purpose. Wolf is being vastly underrated the more I think about it (I can't believe it only has a 74%, I understand the average rating is extremely high for a 74%, it's percentage is lower than the hobbit yet it's average score is over 1 point higher and nearly 2 from top critics, which is a vast difference), mostly because there are to many people offended by the content in the movie without understanding Scorsese's purpose of using it. In 10 years I think Wolf will be like what movies like Pulp Fiction and Goodfellas are today.What I'm kind of disappointed about though is that almost half of the big Best Picture contenders this year could have hands down won last year or 2011. If either Gravity, 12 Years a Slave, Wolf, Her, or Inside Llewyn Davis had come out last year it probably would have won, this year is way to stacked. (Reminds me of 1994 and 1997)

He said he was going to see noteworthy films, 300m+ boxoffice is in fact noteworthy.

I'll give you that, at least you went to see it before you started to hate on it.

I don't see how you can pass Frozen off as not noteworthy given its boxoffice.

You're missing MovieMan the biggest member of the mall.

Karate Kid is fine, just a couple were question worthy. I did forget about Boogie Nights and want to add that now.

It is on January 16th apparently. I'm going to track Her's box office closely now, I think people may be overlooking it.

I put, "I want to see the movie Her really bad when it comes out next week," on my twitter and it blew up with favorites, retweets, and people saying it looked really good. Am I missing something here or is Her in a good position to be a potential sleeper? Especially with Oscar noms, I thought the premise would turn off audiences but they seem interested. And for clarification, my twitter rarely blows up when I mention I want to see a movie. (I think it kind of did for Frozen, it did for Gravity, and it did for the Conjuring for examples of when it did this year) Now I don't see it breaking out like Gravity or Frozen, but it pulling a Frozen number may just be possible.

Summit knows that Frozen is going have a stronger 8th weekend than The Nut Job's first so they are trying to do something desperate.

Have you made yours so you can put those in there? (Some of them are stretches for a coming of age though)

I read TASM over Avengers club....That was too fucking great.

Don't ask others to vote for it for you, vote for it yourself!

I they make good movies then they deserve the extra money.

Anybody thing Bad Words (Jason Bateman) might be able to be a hit?

Edit: Sorry my phone is being shitty and double posting.

I like Hugh Jackman, but he needs to realize not every movie is a musical that needs to be overacted.

Yeah, Jackman wasn't realistic in prisoners, to over the top.Sometimes (especially with big actors) smaller is better. DDL was fairly subtle for playing Lincoln, which is why he deserved his win.I found Waltz also subtle and he didn't have an Oscar begging scene in Django at all.

That's a good relief then

I'll admit, many of the characters in Hustle are over the top, but the dialogue flows spectacularly and is realistic, but that's more credit to the screenplay.Although, I don't see how CF was her strongest performance, I'd argue she was better in Winter's Bone than Catching Fire. But that says a lot given that she was great in CF.

They are good, but again I don't see them on an overly high level.Plus, I am talking more recent Nolan as well (post Batman), as a director he has been on a slow downhill slide post-Dark knight (we'll see if Interstellar can break the trend and be Memento quality or if it will be more typical, safe, mainstream Nolan and be like Inception or TDKR)
