Mr. Hakujin Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Hot Tub Timemachine. Had its moments, but there's no need to rush to theaters and you can wait to DL it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genroh Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 (edited) One of the greatest comedies of all time... Edited April 2, 2010 by Genroh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambaytor Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Hot Tub Timemachine. Had its moments, but there's no need to rush to theaters and you can wait to DL it. Given the title and the trailer I saw, the fact that it's even watchable gains it a 200% increase in popularity in my brain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iambaytor Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I can never muster enough emotion about that movie to hate it, it's a saturday night live movie filled with hit or miss jokes and a premise it stole from another (albeit less funny) movie.

the division of joy Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Given I don't watch SNL or have access to watch it bar youtubing it frantically, which I can't be arsed doing, I liked it a lot. The montage scene was hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Hakujin Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I skipped Hot Rod b/c it had so many bad reviews, and like Baytor, I think Andy Samberg is best in 2-3minute chunks on SNL. However, DOJ was so fucking spot on w/ the last film he recommended [City of God] that I may have to give this one a try... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the division of joy Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I very much doubt you'll like it, I just thought it was awesome. Mostly because of how not good it was. Kinda like the room. Did you end up getting around to The Hurt Locker Haku? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you end up getting around to The Hurt Locker Haku? Yeah, I actually saw it this summer. I thought I posted a mini-review of it, but apparently not. . .so I just put it in my latest batch of reviews. I rate it a solid "B."

Iambaytor Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 I would've went with a more neutral rating like a C+ but I pretty much agree. It's a rarely inoffensive vehicle for an SNL cast member that ranks somewhere between Joe Dirt and Wedding Crashers on the scale of funny enjoyable movies. Pretty forgettable but not terrible.

Keth Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 saw Clash of the Titans yesterday and it was entertaining. The mythology part of it sucked, but it couldve been much worse. Zeus without white hair is stupid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambaytor Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Saw Clash of the Titans with Pedro and Amber. Pedro said it was pretty bad, Amber said it was almost as bad as Kull the Conqueror (Harsh). Me, maybe it's just because I love the original movie so much, but I saw nothing especially wrong with it. It was what the original one was, a string of monster battles with a bunch of boring talky parts in-between. It was very much in the spirit of a Ray Harryhausen movie and everything was pretty much the same even if the sub-plot about Persius hating the gods was unnecessary as well as a few other things (what are Djinns doing in a movie about Greek mythology?) and Sam Worthington is about 1/100th the actor that Harry Hamlin is. It certainly wasn't all that great but a lot better than most of the big budget fantasy cash-ins over the last few years (Beowulf comes to mind.)

Lycaon Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Please. How often do movies come close to getting mythology right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambaytor Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Yeah, but wasn't having a Norse mythological creature (played by the Cloverfield monster: good to see that guy getting other work) enough of a detraction from right? Did they have to go dragging Islamic mythological creatures in as well? Fuck it, lets bring in some Anubites and Onis, make this shit really epic.

Lycaon Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Well, in their defense, Greek mythology did bring in gods from other places. From what I understand, it is suggested that Dionysus may have been borrowed from some Eastern myth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
