The Cinema Club

I decided that I should probably go ahead and make this. When ever I watch a movie and I don't have a lot to say about it I'm going to post it here. When ever I have a lot to say about them I'll make a full thread for them. (So most of the time I'll just post here)

Any time you watch a movie post here, especially you PTERO.

NO SPOILERS OUTSIDE OF THE SPOILER TAG

Just watched "The Lookout", starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

Wasn't expecting much out of it but it turned out to be quite good. And a bit sad mannnn

4/5

I just watched this homeless guy get hit by a truck.

3 movies in one day is a lot. Until recently I was pretty much incapable of watching two movies in one day. I feel like I need a break from the movie or else I may not enjoy the other movie as much.

I got free HBO for a few days so I'm probably gonna watch a shitload of movies.

i ended up watching Side By Side today. pretty interesting documentary about the digital/film split that's happening.

it's a marching band festival at a high school in Dayton. like 12 marching bands (including mine) are performing there shows. it's pretty fun.

I've just watched "Snatch". I was going to watch it a few months ago but it seemed a bit boring at first, but I gave it another try. It was cool, but I wish it had more boxing in it.

I changed the name because I want this to be for more than just whenever I watch a movie.

Pineapple Express, Snatch, Stranger than Fiction, and Moon

There's probably more but YouTube is fucking stupid and makes it incredibly difficult to browse through the movies.

Just watched "Horrible Bosses" Was pretty decent. 3.5/5
Steve Wiebe was shortly in it for some reason. That's weird.

Just saw "Despicable Me". I wasn't expecting to like it but it was actually quite good.

4/5

The Avengers. Badass. 4.5/5

Just saw "American Beauty". Kinda depressing.

4/5

"In Bruges". Fucking fantastic. I think it might be one of my favourite films. It's a beautiful movie.

4.5/5

Just watched Lord of the Rings.
The first movie was a bit boring but it got better afterwards. It turned out to be great.
4/5

The other day I watched black dynamite the movie. I really liked it even though it was shot in 16 mm film.

Since I lasted post I've watched

Iron Man 2
Natural Born Killers
Foo Fighters: Back and Forth

Too lazy to rate them.

Just watched "Rear Window" I was expecting to not like it. It came out in 1954 and I find it kinda hard to get into older movies, but it was great. Definitely going to watch more Hitchcock.

4.5/5

4.5/5

The guy in Rear Window playing the piano later created Alvin and the chipmunks.

watch North by Northwest and Psycho next

I'll get to psycho, but I don't like horror. I'm getting North by Northwest and Vertigo next from Netflix. Are they in colour?

Psycho is black and white, the other two are color. Psycho is easily his best imo.

I'm watching the TV series "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" from 1954. It feels at least 20-30 years older than Rear Window, which came out the same year.
