What have you watched recently?

Was there really any interesting dialogue in that scene? It was mostly just learning about his character and his motivations. Nothing really story driven

And that's not story-related? :P

It was a good scene and if you caught all of the dialogue, you knew that a super major plot point (ending of episode 7) was bound to come.

I admit though that the bewbs were kind of distracting. :D

It's a really good show!

Dark City.

Amazing film.. how the Hell did it take me so long to see this?!!

Dark City is one of my favorite movies ever, it never gets boring even after you've watched it 10 times. :D

I hope you watched the Director's Cut though, as it is a lot better than the theatrical release (the director's cut deletes the useless and somewhat spoiling narration by Schreber at the very beginning for example).

I've been watching Game of Thrones lately and I absolutely love it. I can't wait for the next episode. :holy:

Dark City.

I liked that film! :)

Been searching for more mindfuck movies lately, saw Fight Club last night... I know, I know... A little embarrassing that I haven't seen it before, but it's just one of the many great movies that seem to have slipped of my "down to earth" radar :/

Next up: 12 Monkeys.

Super 8

It was very underwhelming. The story about the kids filming a zombie movie was more interesting than the main plot. The main plot felt out of place and just overly generic. Oh well.

And to sum it all up to why it completely falls apart:

This movie starts out promising but then falls apart completely by the end. The main problem with the movie is that the monster has no purpose what-so-ever in the story and the film would have been great if it was just about the father son trying to find peace after the death of the mother in addition to the son coming of age with the girl and his friends by shooting a super 8 movie. That part of the movie is good, then the monster appears and not only destroys half of the town, but it goes one step further and destroys the film too. The monster is just stupid; it's not interesting and there's really nothing in the storyline of the monster that hasn't been done before. It's basically bits and pieces of other - better - movies that have already been released. The movie falls apart because for almost 3/4 of the film the monster is just background noise between the scene of the boy and girl, and his friends, all of which are interesting. Then at the end of the film these stories are abandoned completely and the monster's story - which sucks - is wrapped up in to a cgi blastoff which ends the film. Let's recap: Father and Son grieving after loss of the mother, the father is distant from his son. Climax: Father and Son hug at the end of the film. No talking about all of the previous stuff, just a hug. Son & Girl(friend) awkward relationship that blossoms in to... Climax: nothing... Monster & Military - The monster is captured, tortured and then escapes but not after killing innocent people and then being helped to escape by the kids who are scared to death of it the entire film, but then suddenly decide to help it. Which escapes in a space ship which it builds out of regular everyday items from 1979 which some how selectively magnetize themselves to the watertower (never explained, it sounds ridiculous writing this out) and then can summons thousands of miniature cubes in to a ship which just suddenly appears for no reason. There is never an explanation as to how the monster suddenly fixes his ship at the end. T Super 8 Movie - The kids are shooting this zombie film the entire god damn movie and it just becomes irrelevant at the end. Group of friends: The entire movie the son is running around with his four friends but at the end each of these friends gets cut from the ending, there is no closure on any of their stories.
