Some good movies...

[Darksaviour69]

yeah, so recommend me some good movies to watch, while i'm sick, anything on dvd.

just watched "The Departed" today, and I watched "The Dark Knight" yesterday. Going to watch "Dog Day Afternoon" now

[Eviltaco64]

Hmm, is Crank 2 out on DVD yet?

The first one was pretty good.

[beetroot bertie]

Dead man's shoes - excellent filum :)

Anything by Pixar, The Incredibles maybe.

Or perhaps a TV series to get stuck into. Battlestar Galactica is good, as is Deadwood or for a cult classic The Prisoner. The Wire's been on the BBC lately and is also very good.

Or Spaced.

If you don't mind subtitled films then I think 'Twilight Samurai', 'Oldboy' and 'Kung Fu Hustle' are all good. I guess it depends on your mood.

I watched 'Knowing' yesterday and was quite disappointed as the ending was unsatisfying and acting quite poor. It has however been in my head today because of some of it's ambiguity and there's some interesting ideas going on there - some thought provoking concepts I thought, despite it's flaws. It kind of leaves you thinking, which isn't a bad thing really. It might be worth a try. You may think it's poo though as opinions seem to be split.

Crank? was it not a bit shite?

I have seen all the pixar films

Spaced: seen it all, loved it

Battlestar Galactica: I'm pretty sure I have seen the first 3 seasons, so I might get stuck into season 4, thanks

Crank? was it not a bit shite?

I thought it was fairly good (though a little overdone). :/

I remember you saying you wanted to watch Dial V for Vendetta. I guess I'd watch that.

[Darksaviour69]

yeah today I watched
Hellboy (disappointing)
there will be blood (ok, but not as good as gangs of newyork)
no country for old men (interesting )


I have Paul Blart Mall Cop but have not watched it yeah because of the poor imdb score (5.4/10)

to be honest, i don't know what I'm looking for , but nothing yet has really tickled my fancy.

And good Sci-Fi films? (i'm a big blade runner fan)

[Shadowblind]

Is the new Star Trek on DVD yet? Its pretty awesome.

on a side note, i would love a DS9 movie (even a tv movie)

hmm i wonder if there are any new Babylon 5 movies...

[fg-54]

How about "The Fifth Element"? a great Sci-Fi movie.

[Darksaviour69]

oh yeah The Fifth Element is a great show , but i have seen it loads of time

any other Bruce Willis gems (seen all die hard, last man standing)

edit: just looking a brucy imdb page, its been ages since he has made a good film

If you like Sci-Fi and Thrillers, pickup Sunshine it was released in 2007.

Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... and Spring (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fr-8A23KQgI&feature=related) This movie is pretty long, but nice to watch he whole time.

I thought this was a lovely film.

If you liked Departed, you might want to check out Infernal Affairs at some stage (Departed was pretty much a western remake of it).

Some others:

Kung-Fu Panda
Pan's Labyrinth
Platoon
2001: A Space odyssey
Any Studio Ghibli film

Oh shweet! I really enjoyed Pan's Labyrinth too :) It was a great movie.
