2001 A space odyssey was slow and didn't make much sense. That said I still like Hal...Frybird said:Exactly that...RedRingRico said:This, this, this. I had to watch it for a media class, it felt like I'd been there for six hours just watching the intro section with the chimp panorama.Scary_Bob said:2001 A space odyssey bored me to tears. I can appreciate it as a technical accomplishment with some great music, but I have no incentive to ever watch it again certainly.
Also i was disappointed when i finally saw Kubrick's Version of Shining...the Book is just so much better.
But oh well, there is still Dr. Strangelove to appreciate

I was in high school, and all the faux "movie buffs" were always like, "you haven't seen it? It's the best movie ever." "It's like the perfect movie!" To that I refer you to my middle finger.

The Blair Witch project did a great job with the camera idea. Its quiet great, but I liked Cloverfield to, its not genius, but it kept me entertained seeing that girl blow up behind a screen, or whatever it was. Havnt seen Quarantine though.Obsessive_Monkey said:Quarantine and Cloverfield.. great idea with the camera's.. but after a while it seriously gives me a headacheand the lighting in Quarantine was shocking.. i understand they wanted it like that.. but what's the point of a movie when you can barely see what's happening.
Right i agree with the first part of your post that saying dark knight was overrated, but the rest is just unbelievable, how can anyone like the new Batman movies they are so depressingly bad, that through both begins and dark knight i fell asleep bout 25 minutes in. that is a bit made up for the begins movie but for dark knight i actually did i thought it would grasp my attention and keep me awake as i was tired already, but i just fell asleep and i tried watching again but just had to leave my mates to it.mspencer82 said:The Dark Knight, particularly regarding Heath Ledger's performance as the Joker. It was by no means a bad movie. It was actually pretty good; just nowhere near as good as Batman begins and hardly the amazing film that people were making it out to be.
I agree with SCAMola, That holy grail is amazing but then i agree with Dwightsteel that godfather movies are bad, i just couldnt understand what the hell they were talking about, they were slow and i wasnt going to sit there for however many hours they are on for just to see some fat guy mumble to his friends about how he doesnt have respect or own a part of the city.The infamous SCAMola said:HERETIC!!

Seriously though, in my opinion the godfather is one of the best films ever and the holy grail is just hilarious.
I can see how you might have been bored with Casino Royale, and in no way am I bashing your taste for Quantum. But I don't get it. Quantum of Solace felt more like the 4th Bourne movie then a Bond flick. Thats just me. That, and the title felt like the one attempt that movie made to be intellectual. As if to give a title maybe half of the crowd would understand gave it an excuse to forgo a story.Fraeir said:Casino Royale
Just... so boring.. I've seen all the James Bond movies, and this is the only one that bored me, to the point where I fell asleep..
Thankfully, Quantum of Solace saved Craig as a Bond in my eyes, as well as the movies in general.
Quantum was far more brutal than most Bond movies, and I agree it didn't feel completely like one xDdwightsteel said:I can see how you might have been bored with Casino Royale, and in no way am I bashing your taste for Quantum.

I think Arsen was saying Begins is greater than TDK.The infamous SCAMola said:Actually that was Batman begins not TDK.Arsen said:The Dark Knight - Liam Neeson Neeson sword fighting Christian Bale on Ice > The most far fetched "explosion plot" ever.
You say it's overrated, fine! However, keep depressingly bad opinions to yourself. It was a very entertaining movie but I wouldn't put it anywhere near the greatest movie category.Lasituas said:Right i agree with the first part of your post that saying dark knight was overrated, but the rest is just unbelievable, how can anyone like the new Batman movies they are so depressingly bad, that through both begins and dark knight i fell asleep bout 25 minutes in. that is a bit made up for the begins movie but for dark knight i actually did i thought it would grasp my attention and keep me awake as i was tired already, but i just fell asleep and i tried watching again but just had to leave my mates to it.![]()
To each his own. And no doubt QoS didn't slack on the action. As I've said before, I rate action movies differently then I do other flicks. I give them more leeway plot wise, because you don't go in for compelling drama, otherwise you'd be watching....well a drama movie.

It was just that I felt Casino Royale was all poker-playing.. the parts where I fell asleep..
However, this is subjective as I am completely and utterly uninterested in cards, nor do I know how you play Poker, so yeah.. that is kinda why xD
Come on man. As Simon Pegg pointed out, it's now almost trendy to dislike the Matrix. While your at it, lets talk about how bad Episode I and JarJar are.Unknower said:Matrix. Sorry if I don't get excited about the main character being able to stop bullets.
