    Also oliver : wtf

    Loving Spartacus Tvshow, i know i should too really jump in Vikings show !


    Also i just watched Elysium last night, wow, I have read some bad critics about this movie and wasn't expecting too much but it was a really cool surprise, good mood and design. The story was okay, a bit too much "black and white" when i prefer anticipation worlds to be grey, dirty and dark.

    Sprony Edit:


    Shame on you D3ads!

    The Raid.


    Probably one of the most overrated films ever, boring fight sequences that go on forever and a terrible storyline made for a very much underwhelming experience. 6/10 Dredd did it better.

    I heard very good things about "Orange is the new Black" and since I've gotten my wife Netflix, we decided to check it out. So far 3 episodes in and I'm looking forward to how things develop further. I didn't know it was based on real events too. Makes is even more interesting. I highly recommend it.

    I reported this post hopefully thrik does what's right

    Watching the Axe Cop TV Show at the moment. It's pretty good. The story is unpredictable, but it just makes it more interesting. And even though there is a lot of humor it appears to try to paint the characters as more than just one or two dimensions.


    So all in all pretty enjoyable.

    I took action and edited that blasphemy.

    Went to theater watch "How to Train Your Dragon 2", probably one of the best animated movie so far, not a single flaw except you have to not cry during the whole movie.

    Where is Jessica Hyde?


    This is too obscure for any non-Brits I reckon Apparently David Fincher is doing a US remake though

    I just finished watching the first season not long ago on 4OD, I loved the shit out Utopia! Can't wait to dig into the second season when I get time...

    Not so recently I watched A Million Ways To Die In The West, inbetween I've taken a look at some movies I wanted to watch and haven't for a long time.

    The Departed, Hugo (Cabret) and the movie of the wonderful dystopia book, Johnny Mnemonic.

    Also rewatched Magnolia with a friend of mine, which is still to me a masterpiece of character implication in story, paired with wonderful use of the soundtrack.


    I admit, I jumped onto a Martin Scorsese train after The Departed.

    I mostly come on here to recommend movies but sorry guys, I just really have to rant for a bit:


    Divergent 2/10


    Easily the most nonsensical piece of shit movie I've seen in a long while. It's impossible to suspend your disbelief, 90% of the movie is impossible to buy unless you have an IQ of 90 and don't question anything cos this concept falls apart if you start thinking about... well, pretty much anything.


    The world building and the way society is represented, even just human nature and shit is depicted in a completely unbelievable way, I can't remember how many times I eye-rolled at this movie/concept. It's so bad that the plot doesn't even matter anymore at this point.


    No seriously, it's an absolutely idiotic and ridiculous premise... And once you're at that stage any possibility of immersion is impossible.


    "Oh you're over thinking it". No, it's really not one of those movies where you find holes once you dig into it. The issues are laying right on the surface, it's impossible to miss unless you shut off your entire brain. Don't get me wrong, I usually can enjoy a B movie or a movie like Transformers but this is just in an entirely different league of cringe...


    The good: Shailene Woodley does some pretty good acting and there's a couple of cool scenes but besides that the movie just doesn't hold up.

    I haven't seen it but me and my sister talked, and laughed, about how it feels like a sci-fi writer pulled this wonky sci-fi premise out of his/her ass under the false assumption that it would be "fascinating" or some shit.
