Why? Why is it that every film that comes out in Hollywood today has to be a remake of a perfectly fine European film?!?!?!? Yes I know, we already had this discussion in another thread, but still wtf? What's next? A remake of La Dolce Vita? :rolleyes:Quote:

Did you notice in my thread "Impactive Films" not one of the films I listed was released before 2000? :rolleyes: It's weird, I only read old literature (mostly 19th C. stuff) and only watch the most modern films (21st C. with few exceptions).Quote:

But the Danish version isn't that old, it came out in 2004 or 05. And it was a tremendous movie, I would highly recommend it. Not always easy to watch, it's incredibly depressing, like all good Scandinavian films should be. ;)
Oh, is that so? I must have confused it with another movie. :blush:Quote:

The guy who played Jannik, the brother that was home, was amazing. I've seen him in several Danish films and he never ceases to impress.
Good grief, that was the movie I found. I just didn't look at the year! Well, the cover (the one I saw) looked oldish, compared to the new cover :p

Now that I've completely made a fool of myself...
I'm hearing A LOT of good things about the new documentary film Collapse.
I want to see Up In The Air sooooooooooooooo bad.
Green Bay I hate you for not bringing Where the Wild Things Are to your theaters! Now I have to drive to Appleton! :flare:
Alvin and the Chipmonks 2: The Squeakquel?
Some toothfairy movie starring the Rock?
WTF?
:brickwall:brickwall:brickwall
When Bela Tarr says things like this, “For me, when I see something at the cinema it is always full of ****.” sadly he's right.
Okay I've been whining too much but upon seeing the trailer for the Sherlock Holmes adaption, I was appauled. This is sooo typical of Hollywood. Take a brilliant work of literature with one of the most memorable of characters and turn it into some cartoonish Hollywood action picture. Yes I know it's based on a graphich novel, but next time choose a more appropraite character than Sherlock Holmes to star in your explosions film. Hell, a BBC television special would've made an infinitley better adaption.
-Avatar
-Nine
And why do people think that Brothers is a good movie, it's TERRIBLE.
I can't wait for Sherlock Holmeesssssss!!!!
I agree. Enough critics have said it's decent for me not to dismiss it simply by watching a preview. I think it'll be good.Quote:
