lichtie23 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Aw no way man I think you have them the wrong way round , I thought the 2nd Inbetweeners was way funnier than the first one and Dumb and Dumber to was no way near the first, still funny but nowhere near the standard of the first one. Dumb and Dumber is a classic, its untouchable. Funny old word really. I respect your opinion but I disagree. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad I kept with it though, a funny and enjoyable "romp". I thought that was a great way to start it and set the tone brilliantly. Also fit with Star Lord pretty well too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Dumb and Dumber To was decent enough for being so long after the original. But it doesn't touch Dumb and Dumber. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stimpy Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Life is beautiful is my favourite film of all time. I've got a film called all about eve As I say I've seen bits and him making up stories for the kid while everyone else including us the viewer knows the horrific things going on and really did go on. It's too much for me, I'm sure it's a wonderful film but I'd struggle to get through it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albino Rover Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 For all the P&B cinephiles who aren't aware already, the top 21 films of the 21st century poll is underway: make sure you have your say before voting closes on Thursday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergie's no1 fan Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I respect your opinion but I disagree. You too bud . Everyone has different opinions and taste, that's the way it should be with films . Would be boring if we all had the same thoughts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Annie - the original version. Shite apart from Its a Hard Knock Life. Miss Hannigan would probably get it though, the gin soaked cock tease. You'd show her the hard cock life? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raidernation Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Damn Yankees 9/10 It's a 50's musical about baseball. I know, I know pretty niche, but I love it (and not just because it was one of my faither's favourites) Some cracking songs, wonderfully funny and equally emotive in places, if it could be you, say, in a football scenario, maybe called "damn Old Firm" wouldn't you? Watch it of you can, it is a real gem! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hampden Diehard Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 "The Yellow Sea", a Korean film that was on Film 4 recently, covering organised crime there and in a Korean community in China. Read about the Koreans living in China before you watch it, as this puts the film into context. High body count, but not a gun to be seen....so, buckets of blood as the chibs are out in force. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JogaBonito Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 The piano (1993) Bit of a slow burner, revolving around issues such as passion and lust. Holly hunter comes to New Zealand to marry Sam Neill, who ends up a bit tonto (bit weird seeing him as I've started watching Peaky Blinders where he has grey hair!) Harvey Keitel also stars in this drama. Wid not btw. Michael Nyman's piece is pleasant at first, but becomes really irritating in the end. It's ok. 6/10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blootoon87 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Chinatown- Christ almighty there was a lot packed into that film. Jack Nicholson is a private detective initially hired to spy on a suspicious woman's husband. What follows is a heap of corruption, blackmail, murder, and heaps of little twists and turns. I could probably done with watching it again to follow it totally. 6.5/10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Gaines Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) I did quite like Eddie Redmayne going into full cheese mode though. I do like when folk ham it up like that. Edited April 27, 2015 by NewDomDom 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Just watched Age of Ultron there. Didn't really enjoy it all that much. GotG and Winter Soldier both broke away from the generic superhero movie format whereas I felt Age of Ultron felt formulaic. Best parts were the opening scene and the three new Avengers (Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch and Vision) who I felt weren't overshadowed at all unlike Thor who was pretty much expendable and had little to no part to play. Same could be said for Nick Fury. Even the mid-credits scene was disappointing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I don't think Winter Soldier broke away from the formula. What it DID do though was do it extremely well. I can't find many faults with it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumigoo Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I found the Avengers entertaining enough. I went in and turned off my brain for a couple of hours and it did it's job. Do feel we are reaching saturation point a little but there will always be interest in these films (the timeline for the next few years of films looks ridiculous). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Completely unsurprised that Jupiter Ascending is getting such poor buzz on here. The Wachowskis started with two absolute crackers and tragically disappeared off up their own arses immediately afterwards. Like Lana's pink dreads though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergie's no1 fan Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Braveheart 8/10. Yes it isn't historically accurate and the storyline was romanticised but it's brilliant. Still get choked up when William Wallace is getting tortured and lets out the freeedom. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raidernation Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 The Lorax 6.5/10 Watched at school this afternoon as part of their Earth Day activities (I know it was last week, but .........) OK in places, abit obvious and heavy handed with the eco message, but enjoyable enough 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Avengers 2: Avenge Harder - liked it, despite the utterly generic sci-fi plot device that was SkyNet Ultron. James Spader was good value and surprisingly non-roboty. I've seen Elizabeth Olsen in a few things now, and she widdles all over her sisters in terms of acting talent; can't say I thought about her other roles, or those of Aaron Taylor-Johnson, while they were onscreen. Everyone else is a dab hand at these things now, and I very much enjoyed the funeez. I also thought they (again) did a great job juggling so many characters, as it didn't seem like anyone was left on the sidelines, despite Hawkeye and Black Widow getting a bit more screen time. I'd actually forgotten about a spoiler I'd overheard being bandied about Quicksilver's death at the swimming baths by an utterly cunty 12-year-old (who has hopefully drowned since), so it must have been pretty engaging. Wish I'd remembered to see Captain America 2: Whatever It's Called first, but I don't think I missed much/have had too much spoilered for me. Hopefully. Never would have thought I'd like the Cap' so much before these films started. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
