Inception was awesome. 9/10.

Going to Toy Story today so I have very high hopes!

I'm not really much of a movie-goer, so I wont score Inception. Just know that it was good. Recommended.

I saw Toy Story a few weeks ago too, it's pretty emotional lol.

I know what you mean lol; that was some heavy stuff.

Rear Window (1954) Directed by Alfred Hitchcock

Hitchcock is definitely living up to his reputation. Had me on the edge of my seat.

Carlito's Way (1993) Directed by Brian De Palma

Pretty good, but felt a bit weak overall. Now I know who Ken Rosenberg from Vice City was based on lol.

To Kill A Mockingbird (1962) Directed by Robert Mulligan

Can't say I enjoyed this very much, was quite boring with the kids for the first half or so. I liked the bit in the courtroom, but I was expecting something different with this film.

Grave of the Fireflies (1988) Directed by Isao Takahata

Not as depressing as some people made out, I can't say I was bawling at the end, but maybe a tear or two. One of the best anime films I've watched.

Mean Streets (1973) Directed by Martin Scorsese

Funny to think this was back when Scorsese and De Niro were unknown to the public. The performances in this are so natrual. Very good stuff.

Good Will Hunting (1997) Directed by Gus Van Sant

I have to say, I may love this film. Robin Williams is brilliant.

Clerks (1994) Directed by Kevin Smith

Finally seen it, really liked it.

"37! My girlfriend sucked 37 dicks!"
"In a row?!" lol

Patriot Games (1992) Directed by Phillip Noyce

Very enjoyable action thriller. Now is it a boy or a girl?

Get Carter (1971) Directed by Mike Hodges

Was orite, one of those dated British films ya know.

Ronin (1998) Directed by John Frankenheimer

It's not perfect but I had a great time with this. John Frankenheimer sure knows how to film car chases. Jean Reno <3.

Pale Rider (1985) Directed by Clint Eastwood

Not Eastwood's best film. Sydney Penny was sure pretty, though. Lock me up.

Youth In Revolt (2009) Directed by Miguel Arteta

I liked it. Cera as his alter-ego François Dillinger is great.

Harry Brown (2009) Directed by Daniel Barber

Maybe a little OTT, but good nonetheless. The scene when he goes to the dealers is the best - acting is superb.

I'm exhasuted, probably should have waited a while before I bought some more, but nope, another 25 films are on their way. GAAA!!

My childhood is now complete. Thank god I had my 3D glasses on.

I don't really have a fondness for any disney/pixar/kids stuff from my childhood. Looking back at it if anything I'm annoyed I was so easily entertained with shit like The Land Before Time, y'know?

To be fair Seany they where great movies.

Don't be shittin' on The Land Before Time man...

Watched Inception. Wasn't really all that entertained by it, although I was really intrigued by the premise.

I thought Toy Story 3 was near perfect.
SPOILER: The bit where they're heading towards incineration and hold hands! I nearly wept.

Fight Club (1999) Director: David Fincher

Excellent film. I think that was the first time I've properly sat down and watched it from start to finish. Easily one of my favourites. The Blu-ray is fantastic too.

Mulholland Drive (2001) Director: David Lynch

Pretty good, I thought, even if it is a pretty big mind-intercourse. I think I got the jist of it, I'll probably give it another watch.

Sympathy For Mr. Vengeance (2002) Director: Chan-wook Park

Fantastic. I recommend giving this one a watch. Oldboy next!

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Bomb (1964) Director: Stanley Kubrick

Can't say I particular enjoyed it. I laughed a couple of times, but overall the humour was pretty lost on me.

The Breakfast Club (1985) Director: John Hughes

Love, love, love, love. I will never forget about you John Hughes. R.I.P.

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo is out on DVD now, and yeah, you should all see it. Its utterly fantastic. The second film hits thetre's next month.

Also, the books are utterly compelling, so you should check them out too if ya'll have a spare minute.

Noomi Rapace, as Lisbeth Salander is sexy in an unusual way. Its immense.

Me neither. I enjoyed it and would definitely recommend it.

Inception was pretty great. Loved how well the cast were used, and the sfx was all incredible. The concept was fantastic, and yeah, really really enjoyed it. Not sure if i loved it though, really enjoyed it, il have to give it another watch.

toy story 3.


10/10.

Spoiler!


mr pickle head will go down in legend.

What? Hows that a spoiler?

Well I've read it now, so if anything happens to Mr Pickle Head (whoever the hell that might be) I'll hold an internet grudge against you.

Toy Story 3 - 10/10.

Its such a wonderful movie, it's entertaining but works in that way only pixar (and on occasions dreamworks) manage where it works on both levels, for kids and adults. The underlying morals of the story about growing older and sentimentality are very poignant but also uplifting. Pixar tell such well crafted stories (Well, other than Cars...) and this is no exception.

Saw Inception again, loved it.

Toy Story soon.

Think I'm going to see Inception and Toy Story again lol. I think a few mates are going to see the A-Team too. I don't really wanna go but it's for a mates birthday so I'll bad if I don't. Hopefully it'll be fun; can't see it being much more than that lol.

The A-team is surprisingly good mate...

Really? That's actually a relief then lol.

Shutter Island. Enjoyed it quite a bit. More than Inception anyway.
