Slumdog Millionaire is a very popular film here in the UK and a great film overall in my estimation (then again I am a Danny Boyle fanboy)
Will have to disagree with Bob on 'The Artist' there, I found it entertaining throughout and different. Also, the use of silence definitely is not a...
I grew up in the best time to be a star wars fan, and not it wasn't the 70s or the 80s.
Born 1993
Watched originall trilogy multiple times 1997-1999 ROTJ is still my favourite film of all time
Watched Phantom Menace at the Odeon in Leisceter Square 1999 Loved it
Watched Attack of the...
Rather than be a cynical asshole. I look forward to what these new guys can do with the Watchmen, it could be really interesting. Oh and it is horrible how the article implies (in an awfully unsubtle way) that the guy who initially refused was won over by money.
Say what you will, these...
Stammer and stage fright are not "loveable" impediments. The reason why 'The King's Speech' won Oscars was because it was a good film. It was popular with audiences, if you strip away the stuff about class, monarchy and everything else it is about two people who become friends through...
Lots of cool new characters that were later explored in the comics (Ki-Adi Mundi)
Nice lightsaber fights, although the battles in 5 and 6 were much better IMO.
Ewan Mcgergor did an awesome job of becoming a young Alec Guinness i thought and I felt he deserved a lot more recognition for his...
I just finished reading 'Ivanov' (I also read 'The Seagull' last year) and was wondering what you guys at the Escapist think of his writing.
I personally enjoy it very much. His characters seem so vibrant and their language is so expressive. I really enjoy reading it basically.
Well I can't be held accountable for the taste of my friends. My personal favourite is The Artist and I hope it will (though I highly doubt) that it will lead to more silent films being made.
Seeing as any film I want to see that isn't Shark Night 3D or anything of that ilk is met with the reaction from my friends as "gay", my list would be way too long. But here are some highlights from this year:
Drive
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
The Artist
Arietty
'The Artist' was probably my favourite film of the year. I disagree with Bob on the idea that being a silent film is a gimmick. The way I see it, silent films are like a certain flavour, and I fucking love that flavour.
I've enjoyed watching silent films for some time now and while almost...
crude criticism= bad criticism= bad opinion based on nothing. Care to elaborate on why you didn't find it funny? Also, pulling the subjectivity card means nothing.
I am not butthurt that you didn't like the movie because personally I didn't find it amazing either, it had created good characters, only not to have most of them develop enough in the short running time. My main gripe with your post is that your reasons for hating it are for the most part...
