Happy Face 29 Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 has anyone seen 'W', thinking of giving it a spin? I did and I enjoyed it, I wouldn't have made it a movie though, a Two Part tv special on HBO would have been poifecto.. I'd watch W and Frost/Nixon back to back if I were you. Watched Frost/Nixon last night. Reminded me a bit of 24 Hour Party people in that they made the hero out to be Alan Partridge. I know it's a dramatic device so you underestimate him and the tension is built as the interviews keep failing to pin Nixon down, but Sheen's impression of Frost was even more Partridge than Coogan's Tony Wilson. Fantastic film though. Ron Howard is annoying. He does excellent historical drama like this, Apollo 13 or A Beautiful Mind and then he does utter turd like The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons. Got W to watch next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1117 Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 State of Play. Very All The Presidents Men like (only not as good and without such a good cast (although the cast is still rather good)). Thought the ending was a bit much but enjoyed it other then that.

Dr Gloom 19835 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 i want to see inception this weekend but the wife wants to see toy story 2. anyone seen either of these? which is better? i don't mind pixar films - loved up - but always seems a bit of a waste going to the flicks to see what is essentially a kid's film Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMoog 0 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Dead Snow - a Norwegian comedy horror with nazi zombies. I'm not a 'subtitles' person usually but this wasn't bad, some very silly bits in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lot's of people salivating over the complexity of it. Lot's of people aying it's only complex if you're 12. Toy Story 3 is getting raves across the board as far as I've seen. No-one has a bad word for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No-one has a bad word for it. I have a bit of a problem with "which is better" they're just about as different as its possible for two maor releases to be, no reason you wouldnt enjoy both without preferring either seen inception and loved it, not for its complexity (didnt think it was over the top complex for sci fi, no time travel for a start) but because its actually a good film, good characters well acted, pretty basic story behind the dream stuff but its still enjoyable and some absolutely awesome scenes throughout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw Inception on Friday and Toy Story last night and thoroughly enjoyed both of them. Toy Story is more of the same so if you enjoyed the first two I can't see any reason why you wouldn't enjoy this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WubbleUC 0 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Toy Story 3 last night, in 3D. Really enjoyed it. As said aboive if you enjoyed the first two, then there's no reason you wouldn't enjoy this one. Inception is next on the list for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 12767 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Toy Story 3. Absolutely fantastic. If you've seen and adore the first two, this one will be perfect for you. Hilarious and touching all in one swoop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Park Life 70 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 Nikita-The Luc Besson one. Lovely film. The French get these things right so easily. 7.7. That's an outrageously high mark for it probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Park Life 70 Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 (edited) Reading the posts about Inception and with Leanardo de Lovely in it...All the warning signs are there. Surely the last thing you want is this babyface porker with one grimace destroying every carefully crafted scene? He can't do aggressive or angry without me bursting out laughing..He does confused and concerned quite well.

I personally think he has turned into a good actor. Catch me if you can, Shutter Island, Inception etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
