I liked the magic, teleporting wolves though.

It's a cartoon that every Greenpeace member has to tatoo on their penises/vags.

 

[Hængebøffer]

If you want good entertainment, Iron Sky is the movie to watch.

Wasn't in the mood for Captain Phillips. I probably would have sided with the somalis early on and been depressed at the end.

But, but, but... it's Tom Hanks, the American folk hero?

Captain America was not weak. That movie was straight up boss. It was more drama than action but it was so well done. I personally liked it a lot.

Any movie with a 15 minutes action montage is lameskis.

I still mean to see it. Just wasn't feeling it at 11:00am on a Sunday.

Cool. It's a fine film, but not really a must-see by any means.

True, but it looks like a film that might lose some of it's better qualities when viewed away from the cinema.

Hmm... I'd say that's kind of true, but at the same time I'd argue there are more important films to watch in the cinema. Gravity is the year's most important film to watch in the cinema so far (in case you haven't seen it). I'm really happy that I watched that on the big screen. Anything else is close to blasphemy.

I haven't seen Gravity. It didn't play very long where I live. I saw Rush and I can't imagine it being as effective on the small screen.

Fuck, that's right. I missed Rush in the cinema.
But really, Gravity is worth driving for. It's a technical masterpiece and also manages to use 3D extremely well. It might very well be the best use of 3D so far.

I've actually never seen a 3D movie. Do you think the 3D is enough to make the viewing experience better than 2D?

 

[Osman]

In some cases like Hobbit, Avatar, Tintin and such, it adds to the experience. I been corious about Gravity, but not enough to want to see it on cinema.

It's hard to say without having seen the movie in 2D, but I'm almost positive it's the case here. 3D can easily become a stupid gimmick in the wrong hands, but Gravity is filmed by Emmanuel Lubezki (The Tree of Life, Children of Men, The New World). He's one of the best cinematographer alive, if not the best. The 3D gives a great effect of floating around in space with the characters and feeling isolated with them. It creates a nice contrast between the earth far away in the background and the things floating around close to you.

Gonna watch The Wolverine tonight.

You guys are crazy for missing Gravity. It's like the best reviewed movie of the decade. While I don't personally think it's that great, I have a hard time seeing how you cannot think it's at least "good". Forget that it's Sandra Bullock and George Clooney. It's worth watching for the technical aspect alone, but thankfully it's more than just that.

Have you (or anyone else in that matter) watched the extended version? Is it any good? @Kate

I have, and it is not extended in the same vein as the Lord of the Rings films were. There's only about 20 minutes of extra footage, it's more of a director's cut. No huge difference between the two, really, just some extra tiny clips and an extra song or two. As a geeky Tolkien fan, I appreciate getting everything I can, but if you're a casual observer, then you're not missing anything.
