The I Watched Recently Thread *possible spoilers*

Saw the trailer for the new Jack Ryan movie. It's been awhile but I thought Clark and Dominguez(?) were the field guys in those books.

Creator. Had some okay comedy when O'Toole would cut down the other teachers, but it jumped around too much for me with the time skips.

Starbuck. A lot better than I expected. Summary made it sound like it was gonna be over the top and just plain goofy. Guy finds out he has around 550 kids because of a lazy sperm bank. A feel-good so he turns his life around. Doesn't want to meet them at the start so he plays the kind-hearted stranger. Movie was great while he was doing that. Not so good when they toss in the 500+ other extras or the hadicapped kid though. Lawyer was jokes. Good watch.

Populaire. Romantic/Comedy. Guy falls for his secretary while he trains her for typing competitions. Had some funny moments, and Déborah François does look good, but just way too much typing for me to stay interested. Long training montages where you'd think they'd start fucking with the looks they were thowing around, but didn't. Wasn't all that convincing when the leads got together either. Supposed to believe the guy is decent but every time he gets around his war buddies wife, he's practically smacking her in the face with his dick. Might as well have had one of her kids walk in on them, like that Bastard Out of Carolina eating out in the kitchen scene.

Papadopoulos & Sons. Way too lighthearted of a comedy. Should've left the brother out altogether. Only watched it because Stannis was in it. smh. Probably be akward to see anybody from Game of Thrones in a comedy. Shouldve been darker. Just make it about a rich family losing everything. Cut out the loud ass brother. The dancing. The turks. All the garbage. Maybe make the youngest kid a little less weird.

The Day I Saw Your Heart. The dad was funny as hell in this. The best one I saw over the past two or three weeks.

The Last Tycoon. Couldve gone without knowing what Sammo Hung looks like sitting naked in a bathtub. Didn't really need as much Yun Fat as they had in this if he was going to be so boring. Was a lot better seeing the rise of his character. Whole last half had me nodding off. Slo-mo gun fights against guys that went to the stormtrooper school of shooting. Dumbass villains jumping through 20-foot windows and getting glass in their eyes while there's a big ass church door they couldve walked through. Something to skip through if you just want to watch the action. Didn't really give a shit about the wwii setting.

Out of the Furnace with Christian Bale, Woody Harrelson and Casey Affleck.

even tho the reviews have been decent. I expected better. such a star studded cast for such a average movie. It should have been much better. Movie was kinda all over the place. was it about PTSD and the problems soldiers deal with when they come back from Iraq? was it about the dirty bizness of street fighting? was it a str8 up Revenge movie? was it "Bromance"/buddy movie (Bale and Affleck)

I don't fuckin kno. smh. seems like a waste of a great cast.

Yeahi posted about this joint some days back.. could have definitely been better as I said before the moving was interesting to me because of the parallels that it had with a movie that Willem Dafoe played the lead character of a Jewish boxer who fought with the backdrop of the crematorium at the camps...

 
I just watched We're The Millers. It was kinda funny, I think white folks over do it with the gay innuendo but there was some funny dialogue and some scenes that made me laugh. Not hilarious but enjoyable anyway.

All the funny parts were in the trailer

 
Just watched The Watchmen again. It gets better every time I see it. Only problem I have with the film is the length but it told a great story, had some good action and was pretty intelligent.

Marathoned Continuum. Thought the first season was great. Second got a little crazy. Not even gonna try to understand that season finale. Big oh shit! moment when Chen showed up at the end though. Hoping for a lot more Travis/Garza next season.
 
Beast of the Southern Wild

I think this was recommended by WillMunny a long ways back got around to seeing it finally On Netflix Cautionary tales... ill tell ya.

Lake Eden

It was good but was predictable towards the end i knew what was gonna happen from the time she ran into homies brother on the road till the end. That dude was fucked up
 
American Hustle tonite and frankly I can't see what the hype's about apart from fine individual performances especially from Cooper and Lawrence. GOAT cameo from Bobby DeNiro too.
 
Iron Man 3

Man oh man. Considering today was my first time seeing it because I heard it was garbage and I only half agree.

It was a decent film for what it was and I did think the story was cool up until they revealed that the man we believe to be the Mandarin was a fake. It was almost at that point it started to struggle.

It still wasn't that bad but Marvel honesty couldn't give a fuck less about the Mandarin as a character as his characterization in the 90s animated show was even more horrific than this incarnation, which wasn't totally terrible in itself.
