Last Good Movie You Saw

I really want to figure out what goes through their minds.

 

"Honey where are you going?"

 

"To watch Iron Man 3, honey"

 

"Ooooh I want to watch it too but there's nobody to take care of the chil- wait what am I saying. Let's take the baby. FUCK EVERYBODY ELSE"

 

WE HAD PEOPLE IN THE THEATRE, on a Saturday, WITH A FUCKING BABY TOO. I nearly lost my fucking shit. I hulked out (due to previous encounter with gama rays) and started tossing shit over and stuff. It's bad enough putting up with babies in stores and restaurants... but in MOVIE THEATRES?! If you wanted to see Iron Man 3 that bad, should have used a condom.

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows

 

I saw the first one not long after it first came out and actually quite liked it. It was a fresh, exciting take on the characters and a very entertaining, if only slightly flawed, watch. Downey Jr. and Law make for a really good double act.

 

This one maintains a lot of those elements to great effect, though at times I think it goes a little bit far with the stylistic touches. It was good and I think the ending was well done in a Sherlock style, even if it was a little too clever for its own good when it came to minor details. Just a shame it was lacking in its amount of Rachel McAdams, and Noomi Rapace's character never really made an impact.

 

I do hope they make another though.

The Time Traveller's Wife

 

Apart from "it's genetic" the time travelling is never fully explained, but that's the only downside to the time travelling in the film. it's rules were consistent enough, and the age of Henry is made fairly obvious if he's a younger, really young, or older version. So it was enjoyable just in that. Other than that is was a fairly standard romantic film and a nice play with the idea.

Oh, also, I want the MythBusters to test the part where

Tony puts metal in the microwave and then opens a gas pipe to cause an explosion.  I'm sure it wouldn't work as fast as it did in the movie, it would take time for the room to fill with gas to the right level, but I wonder if it would work at all.

Rachel McAdams is beautiful in that film. That movie started a whirlwind imaginary relationship between her and I. I left her about a year later for Emma Stone.

Rurouni Kenshin. The recent live-action adaptation.

 

My friends has told me it was good but I didn't expect it would be THAT good. It probably helps that we were all big fans of the anime back in high school, though. Here's hoping for a sequel based on the Shishio arc. That would be just about the best thing ever.

OMG, not the same thing at all but it makes me think of in TDKR the scene where Alfred is telling Bruce

that Rachel picked Harvey over him

there was this little girl who had just come back from the concession stand or wherever who had raced her friend up the steps and she was sitting just behind and to the right of me and wheezing and failing to suppress laughter and it really ruined the impact of that scene.

 

I'm aware that I only used one bit of punctuation in that whole sentence, but fuck you.

Star Trek Into the Darkness

 

Wow. Liked it better than the first. One particular dramatic scene was ruined by a single line for me that made me burst out into laughter, you'll see what I'm talking about when you watch it.

 

What line? (I've seen it. It was ace).

Yeah I saw it last night also confused on the "what line?".

 

Film was pretty good, still not fully "Star Trek" but much closer than the last film, and lots of issues ironed out. Less plotholes too (to the point where most of the plot is easily guessed). I kinda like how to further cement "this is London" at the start they have a (minor-ish) Doctor Who actor in.

 

 

Along with the whole "bad guy is british" thing. Which is it even a spoiler than Cumberbatch is Khan? He practically says as such right at the start when not answering "what is your name?".

 

I liked Nemoy-Spocks response to being asked about Khan. "Vow of not telling you the future, but in Khan's case I'll make an exception".

 

The film did lead to a discussion/argument in the pub on whether the Vengeance would be able to fire phasers (which travel slightly sub-light speed) in warp. I think the conclusion was "they're in a bubble so relativistic physics works fine within there".

Maybe it's funnier for me because I've seen so many parodies and internet memes but
