  1. I remember feeling way more hyped for HBP than DH1. But I was immensely hyped for DH2 the last two weeks.
  2. OMFG, I was going to create this thread yesterday, but I said I'd wait until tomorrow since no one would create it...
  3. Yup, I'm incredibly impressed with the trailer. Can't freaking wait, although I wish they had cast a different Snow White. But Charlize Theron looks like she'll steal the show.
  4. The DH1/DH2 trailer.The DH2 trailer.The final HBP trailer.THESE should be shown to every studio as to how to make epic trailers.
  5. Greatest film of all time, without a single doubt in my mind. An utter classic that will live for the ages. The storytelling is just unbelievably captivating. I've seen this film countless times and I can never get bored of it. Also, best music in a film, period. The most moving soundtrack I've ever heard in my life.A+
  6. AWE had much more heart. The scene with Davy Jones and Calypso in the cellar as she places her hand over his heart is the most beautifully realized moment in the entire series. AWE is convoluted, make no mistake, but it's far more compelling and has a final battle that dwarfs DMC's climax.
  7. Oh God, what an astounding film. An incredible script that easily ranks the best of its year, and the powerhouse performances from Waltz and Laurent (who was shamefully snubbed) were an immense delight. Great cinematography, too. One of my favorite films ever.A+
  8. Really love this film. It didn't sit well with me for some reason during my first viewing, but I grew to love it with repeat viewings. The scene when Forrest and Jenny run for each other in Washington after not having seen each other in years never fails to bring tears to my eyes.A
  9. A restrained but undeniably powerful performance from Jesse, a mesmerizing script full of tremendous dialogue, seamless editing, and a great score make this one of the best films of 2010. THIS, ladies and gentlemen, was the film that should have won Best Picture. Not the forgettable King's Speech. Excellent work from Fincher.A
  10. Strong acting from everyone on board. Story, however, was a little dull and overly-repetitive. It did have a few great scenes, though, like when Amy Adams smacked the girl (such a glorious moment). But not worthy of a BP nomination.B-
  11. A stunning film in every aspect. Not only does it mercilessly blow every Bond film to pieces, but also ranks among my favorite films of the last decade. Yes, it's that incredible. Fantastic performances from everyone (Eva Green was the highlight of the film for me), superb pacing, captivating storyline, and a powerful climax. It doesn't get any better than this. A+
  12. The worst Pirates film by far. Aside from the first five minutes and any scene with Davy Jones, the film fell so hard on its face. The sequence with Jack being captured by the natives in the island was just appalling. Not only was it agonizingly boring, but it didn't further the plot in any sense whatsoever. An absolutely dreadful sequence that really brought the film down. Very dull. Also, the back-stabbing was getting ridiculous and the jokes fell flat. Visually marvelous, though. D
  13. Which he's right. I can't help but think that if we had seen Fred's Death, we wouldn't have gotten Courtyard Apocalypse.
  14. PoA pales in comparison to the last three, and that's REALLY saying something.
  15. 1. Spirited Away2. The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring3. Artificial Intelligence4. Moulin Rouge!These four are by far the best of the year.
  16. 1. Deathly Hallows Part 12. Tangled3. How To Train Your Dragon4. Social Network5. Blue Valentine
  17. HBP, DH1, and DH2 each have absolutely incredible cinematography. I would honestly rank all three of them as being one of the most visually appealing films of the past few years. HBP - mesmerizing cinematography. The washed out yet colorful palette with the addition of some amazingly creative shots (the staircase, the rock on the sea, the shots of Hogwarts) truly make it the best looking film of 2009. Such a shame it didn't win the Oscar. Hogwarts looks the best in this film. There is such an absorbing, gothic look to the film. It honestly looks like a painting. Each and every shot.DH1 - I would probably rank this as the most visually stunning film of the franchise. The wide, panoramic shots were absolutely beautiful and jaw-dropping. It is probably the most colorful of the last three films in the franchise. The lighting was utterly magnificent. The standout scenes have to be Godric's Hollow, the camping montage, the opening scene, and Snape to Malfoy Manor. I loved the shot of the dementors looking down at the prisoners in the courtroom. DH2 - Epic cinematography. Truly. Some of the shots were insane in scope and incredibly striking. The opening shot of the dementors surrounding Hogwarts has got to be on of the most stunning shots I've ever seen. The Prince's Tale was just incredible in terms of cinematography, each and every single shot of it was fantastic. The best would have to be the shot of Lily/Snape by the tree, Snape making his way to the room, and him holding Lily's dead body. There was an incredible shot of when Snape fell to the floor, and the camera was put in an angle in which we could only see James' dead body once the lightning struck. Beautiful, beautiful. I used to think there were some shots that were a bit too dark, but the charcoal theme is impressive after having witnessed it properly again on Blu-ray, but I would have liked to see a bit more color.
  18. What the...? You've got to be kidding me. Even with a $36m OW, $100m is anything but locked. Will it have a chance? Sure, but this movie strikes me as a film that won't have very hot legs.
  19. Uninteresting, insipid, and devoid of all tension and suspense except for one scene. It should end up being a great tool of putting children to sleep.D+
  20. What the fuck is wrong with some of you? This looks like tremendous fun, and I'm not even a fan of the first!
