    haven't seen it yet, but with that review ya got there, i might leave work early.
    Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!

    Your new troll schtick of attention whoring by way of [non] reviews is played already, Yakima.

    I understand there's a limited amount of entertainment and cultural events in that shithole you're stuck in, but buy a bus ticket and find a city.....



    You could come back here as the next Midnight Cowboy, and we'll discuss that....

    I read LeHane's book when it came out a few years ago, so I doubt I'll be seeing the film. But I must admit, the previews look pretty faithful to the novel.

    Apparently, it is...but I'm tired of these stories with no real ending, like that "No Country for Old Men," or whatever. I guess it's in vogue to have no ending, but I'm feeling ripped off.

    I think we need to lock Buttflags "I review a movie in one sentence as if anybody fucking cares" threads.

    At least until he learns how to actually review a movie at something approaching a 6th grade level of creativity, insight and competency.

    Seriously, I'd rather read six pages of thome's dribbles. At least those go somewhere.

    I'm sure you're just fucking dying to be a "mod" here Bob... but you're going to have to wait til then before you can lock a thread.

    Don't like my reviews? Don't enter.

    It's simple. Like you.

    I read the book after I saw the movie, it's a pretty faithful rendition - almost blow for blow.

    Honestly, I didn't think it was a bad movie at all. Good performances, but I think it's better viewed if you haven't read the book, for obvious reasons.

    See? Three sentences and I write ten times the review Fag does.

    Honestly, I hadn't noticed. But if it will help your ego, I'll pretend I do?

    You seem to have a lot to say for somebody not interested in the movie review. Or are you just here because I am?

    Blackflag, I haven't seen Tim Burton's Alice yet.

    Apparently it has Alice in it.

    Discuss.

    Well, I'll tell you bro... I've never seen or read Alice in Wonderland. It's not really my thing. But I did see the preview for this movie, and it's looks pretty damn gay.

    That just convinced me that you notice A LOT.

    And that's the only possible thing you could have responded with that would make me think that.

    Not much in the way of "reading comprehension", are you? Actually, English doesn't seem to suit your mind much at all. Must have been confusing. Let me break it down into the simple sentences you like so much:

    "I like yelling at you"

    "I like smart talk"

    All things I admitted in my previous post. God you're a dimwit.

    I enjoyed the movie... liked the twists and the setup. Definately a mental type of film that isn't about the scarey scenes so much as the perspective of who's mind/eyes you're viewing it through.

    How can you know it's not your thing if you've never read or seen it?

    The book is pretty much a dark fairytale - one of those books that when you re-read it as an adult you realize how much you missed in it as a kid.

    This is his approach to everything.

    He doesn't let the fact he knows fuck all about anything stop him having an opinion on everything.

    I'll try the Cleetus Flag version.

    I never saw it and don't know shit about it. If I had seen it I wouldn't have understood what was happening anyway but it sucks.

    Exactly.

    This is a grate movie, and yesss, it has a real ending. I enjoyed the non-existence of BOO! scenes too. This was about psycological horror more.

    I enjoyed the first Dachau scene the best. With all the ash flying in the beautiful room, and the nazi officer kicking for his death, and then the not-so-beautiful view from the yard. Breath-taking.

    I think the fact that at the end there wasn't a car chase away from a really big explosion with a siren and guns and monsters and stuff ruined it for BF.

    I think the fact that at the end there wasn't a car chase away from a really big explosion with a siren and guns and monsters and stuff ruined it for BF.
    Plus no cheesy orchestra music.

    What do you people think of Leo DiCaprio? I think he's a good/great actor, but has sometimes lacked "age" in his face. He's been too babyface, looked too young to some roles. However, in this movie he manages to take himself to the limits and does a good job.

    Me? Want to see explosions and shit? Never! I'd much rather want to see some quasi-intellectual, self-reflecting bullshit like some poseur.
