Random Social Chit-Chat v. Illuminati Confirmed

All five list are pretty "blokey" and derivative. May as well call it the top film that a bunch of dudes want to watch while eating pizza

No ferris beuller, Lost Boys. Saving private Ryan over A thin red line? A bunch of Westerns from the 60's yet no Unforgiven which won a deserving Oscar ? Not a single musical?

indeed. thanks for putting it together, Max and Bardeaux.

you all should consider bringing up the possibility of promoting the contest in other subforums. the non-drug subforums are in desperate need of growth and bluelighters need a reminder of all that this forum has to offer. would be a small, temporary, fun, and worthwhile interruption in the infinite churn of threads repeating not to shoot pills and mix downers. would be far more effective than the well intentioned but never seen "featured forum" idea in NMI. getting a senior staff member to champion the idea would be key.
 
Macbeth looks to be a hopefully decent flick in a sea of shite. Things are so bad around here American Ultra looks tempting, and the new Mission Impossible has been literally talked about as something to go see. Fucking Summer movie drought.

Pulp Fiction wins again. Bets, I'd schmoke a fatty and watch it again.

It's not like I disclosed extremely sensitive information lol

Random thought:

What happened to shutting up for a bit and watching a film or a show? I suppose this isn't really important if you're watching Transformers VII in HD with surround sound. When watching a somewhat heady show that requires focus on the story and dialog, it seems everyone I watch with nowadays just wants to talk, or surf FB on the phone or tell me a personal anecdote which either causes me to pause whatever we're watching or give on of those "oh really?" looks, trying to infer that I'm trying to pay attention. What ever happened to watching a film or show, giving it undivided attention then discussing it afterwards?

I always have to re-watch everything by myself the next day, because there's no one there to distract me from what's going on. It's a major pet peeve of mine, and makes me consider the larger implication of the ADHD generation and their incessant need to be stimulated without thinking too hard about it. What I really want to say is "Watch the fucking movie if you don't know who that guy is. He made is his introduction while you were talking to me about something cute someone said on Facebook, which you've had your nose buried into throughout the entire film. If you don't watch to watch it, pick whatever eye candy film you want, and I'll talk straight through it with you." But of course, I can't really say this.

This is one reason I typically watch movies alone. It's also one of the reasons I like going to the movie theater. Unless there's someone talking or doing something with their phone I can give the movie my undivided attention.

Even in the theater people can't put their phones down for a full movie. Two nights ago I went to the movie theater to see Steve Jobs. The movie was briefly interrupted by someones phone going off. Their ring tone was loud and they were not very quick at shutting it off. Got through at least 3 full rings.

Then a short while later someone who was in the front row of the stadium style seats pulls out their phone to look something up. It evidently couldn't wait another hour. They had a big screen and the brightness seemed to be way up. Either way it was a distracting bright light held up so anyone in the rows behind was seeing it. Another patron actually said out loud "Turn off your phone." The person still had it out, and after a minute the guy asked them again to turn it off and they finally did. Not big events or big interruptions, but both were enough to take away attention from the movie. Sometimes I get caught up in the movie where it's my sole focus and I'm not paying attention to any of my other surroundings. Interruptions like that pull me away from the movie and bring me back to the theater. It's a way for me to escape and these phone-y people ruin it.


Edit: I did enjoy the movie. I thought Michael Fassbender played the role well.
