Panch Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I tend to like anything Pegg is in. Same goes with Frost. Together, that much more so. I think I'll be ok with World's End. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crimsonfire Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 (edited) I feel touched that people put so much stock in my opinion but I have said that other people may well enjoy the damn film and not to let my opinion get in your way.

Iambaytor Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Hah, that's what you get for dissenting. Now you know how I feel, in all seriousness though we're just trying to stay optimistic. In truth I've had misgivings about them switching up the character dynamic between Frost being the loveable idiot and Pegg being the uptight, ostensibly responsible, one. I'm basically hopeful that my bored indifference of Paul somehow translates to genuine enjoyment of The World's End. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the division of joy Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 I did the sensible thing and assumed typo considering what the actual word means. Sensibility, folks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambaytor Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 (edited) Did you really think I meant the jewel of the metaphorical crown which was pried out? That makes no actual sense. Edited August 3, 2013 by Iambaytor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crimsonfire Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Baytor - couldn't agree more on the Pegg/Frost dynamic. I said from the off that having Nick Frost as the Straight Man was just odd. Sure enough it didn't work for me. Frost has lovable fool down to a fine art whereas Pegg just made it cringey and lame. I also watched Gladiator for like the 15th time the other day. Let's all talk about that film now. [voice from the back of the room]Hey yeah Shane let's talk about that one and not The Worlds End anymore. Great idea, champ![\voice from the back of the room] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverend Jax Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 (edited) Watched The To Do List last night. This is a hard-R, coming-of-age, teen sex comedy. The twist is that it's not a male coming-of-age teen sex comedy. I'm a big fan of Aubrey Plaza and she plays a pretty different character from Parks & Rec's April here. It's set in the early 90's because (this is my speculation at this point) there's a lot of the humor about the main character not knowing what certain sex-terms mean and not knowing how to find out what they mean, and that can't really work if the internet is available to the character. And it give the movie lots of opportunities for small laughs throughout poking fun at the early 90's. Lots of supporting characters from some actors I really like, including Clark Gregg (Agent Coulson in Marvel movies), Bill Hader (SNL), Alia Shawkat (Maeby from Arrested Development), Donald Glover (Troy from Community), Christopher Mintz-Plasse (McLovin), and some cameos from Andy Sandberg (SNL) and Jack McBreyer (Kenneth from 30 Rock). I thought the movie was really funny and sex-positive, and I would recommend it. A lot of the funniest parts are in the trailer, but definitely not all the funniest parts.

Keth Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Just saw Elysium. A bit heavy handed on the message of the whole poor vs rich/illegal immigration front, but overall a solid sci fi flick with some great performances. Sharlto Copley steals the show here.

Panch Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Damn, you hadn't watched 16 Blocks before now? I was sure you had. What'd you think of Mos' performance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 haha yeah, stuff stays perpetually in queue but i wanna say i mentioned your co-sign...i swear i'd heard mos do that voice on a skit or b-side or something and its obviously/purposely corny, but even with that & the character cliches i couldn't deny shit was touching you were just waiting to see what the cake said, but i was like AWWWWWW we could do a whole thread about how some rappers can carry way better as actors than others, but you know i wanna like Mos to begin with & never did check out hitchiker's guide for fear of how that went, but this was cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keth Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 He was good in Hitchhiker's! Also Be Kind Rewind is awesome. Didn't he do some show where he played a Doctor or something that got some praise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 man Be Kind Rewind is another ive slept on for a while, didn't even know he was in that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panch Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) While he was cool in Be Kind, that one was just aiight for me. Dude's a great actor, though. Would like to see him do more TV like Dexter. Him and Common should get in on a project together. Edited August 12, 2013 by Panch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 oh yeah, he was fun in Dex a lotta these dudes do well and don't stray too far from roles they're comfortable with - Meth in the Wire, stuff like that. i picture Com loving his roll in Hell on Wheels...what else has he done though? i can't recall offhand while on this note: i wanna say Cube and Pac turned out to be some of the standout crossover dudes, the latter i really think would've developed some interesting range if he'dve gotten older & was inclined, which i wanna say would've been likely. sometimes the guys i think would be great don't pan out though, like say Nas in Belly....

Panch Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Nas I love, but you can tell this guy wasn't made for acting. When you see interviews, he just seems stiff. Awkward. You have to have a little looseness to act. Common's been a bunch of stuff. That newest Terminator one, Wanted, some romantic comedy with Queen Latifa. He's got some range.

Mr. Hakujin Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 man Be Kind Rewind is another ive slept on for a while, didn't even know he was in that keep sleepin' on that one. the "sweded" gags were mostly good, but as a film on its own i found it disappointingly forgettable.
