A few films recently watched.

yeah, i can kind of see where youre coming from but i actually kind of liked the over the top nature of it. i was watching it with someone once and we both started cracking up laughing.. and ending it all with "welcome to fuckin deadwood".. kind of hammy but i love it.

sorry dude, but it is indeed a goofy and melodramatic soap opera.

i agree, it is indeed goofy and incredibly manipulative. but honestly if you just let it do it's manipulative thing, it's fantastic. let go, man! let go!

jackass 3 - a couple of lols were had. i didn't know steve-o got clean. he looked kind of sad with it all.

I tried, more than once, to let SFU 'do its thing' and it didn't work...instead, I just felt like I had bathed in velveeta.

Then again, I detest Alan Ball.

Haha, fair enough.

I just found my DVDs of Sealab 2021. It's been foreeeeever.

The Mechanic (2011) - 7/10, was fun to watch. Ending was poor.

Re: Six Feet Under

Whenever a relationship seemed to be going (relatively) well on the show, you could pretty much count on a cheatin' blowjob scene.

One of my friends used to get excited when you had a few minutes of domestic bliss because you could count on ILLICIT BLOWJOBS!!!1 within an episode.

He's still single, ladies.

Thanks for the memories, Alan Ball.

I though it was amusing to see them old, knackered and shitting themselves instead of the foolhardy skateboard attitude they had when it first started.

It did make me laugh out loud more than anything other film in the last 12 months and I can't imagine what it would have been like in 3D at the cinema!

I think Preston stole the show a lot in this one.

3D didn't add a huge amount, besides airborn dildos flying at your face... and chunks of poo... god that was a messy end to their adventures

Finished Evangelion as well as End of Evangelion the other day with my buddy.

:wtf: :wtf: :wtf:

good luck!

Oh dear, haha.

Have the new films added/changed anything substantial so far?

me too probably but "comedies" aren't usually funny. i was forced to watch 'due date' the other day (the hangover was slightly funny in places) and it was a pile of unfunny shite. funny that.

Innit. I lament all comedies I've seen out of the US in the last few years, I haven't seen a funny film from there in ages. The only reason I say US is because we had In The Loop a couple years back which was hilarious, and Four Lions.

Unless there's been a really funny film I've missed. Open to recommendations of course.

I thought Superbad was pretty good for a comedy movie.

And Six Feet Under is a great series. Just bought the first three seasons, I know most of the episodes but I might have missed a few in between.

Oh and I got my dad hooked on Breaking Bad. He bought season 2 and now watches the episodes in English when he's alone and then re-watches them in German dub with his girlfriend.

i thought four lions was dire. last 'comedy' i enjoyed was le donk and scor-zay-zee but probably didn't actually laugh much.

stiller, sandler, wilson and everyone else with the monopoly on hollywood comedy can suck my unamused cock.

Agreed. Although that said, Stiller on Arrested Development as Tony Wonder was funny as fuck.

Predators. I had been avoiding this but I wanted something dumb to watch while I exercised. It was as awful as I expected. Completely unimaginative, lifeless, and nonsensical. Best visual effect was Adrian Brody's nose.

Hobo with a Shotgun - 7/10 - pretty funny, pretty bloody, pretty Canadian (yeahhh)

Yeah Will Ferrell is awful

he was funny in the first season of 'eastbound and down'
