What's the last MOVIE you watched? v 3.0

^^ Yeah dahlink, Penelope was hilarious,moreso when she was semi-blind, I love the stroking the "cat" scene lol. Maybe it's just me, but I've always, always had the hugest crush on Keith Coogan. Arrrgh.

I wish he still looked like that though.... funny how almost ALL these child stars never grow up to be even half as cute as they were!
 
Eew, you're on your own on that one. :|

Last film I watched:

c1af3477.jpg


on TV last night. I've seen it before, but thought I'd watch it again as I'll probably never watch the DVD again. It's just not one of those films you think, "hey, let me dig out that DVD and give it a watch". I think I was one of the selective few that enjoyed it on some level though. I'm a big Van Sant fan, and an even bigger Nirvana fan and I could understand what he was trying to say with it. I just couldn't stand all the incessant mumbling. :|
 
BBC_Ancient_Rome_DVD_Cover.jpg


This dramatised documentary series tells the story of the rise and fall of Ancient Rome through the six key turning points. Factually accurate and based on extensive historical research, it reveals how the greed, lust and ambition of men like Caesar, Nero and Constantine shaped the Roman Empire. It describes how Rome destroyed Carthage, was conquered by Caesar, how it suppressed the Jewish revolt, and converted to Christianity. CGI is mixed with compelling drama and spectacular live-action battles to tell the definitive television story of how the Empire was formed, how it achieved maximum power, and why it eventually failed.

love gettin stoned and watching this history stuff, far out.

The Banquet.

Another big budget, highly stylized dramatic period piece from China. It is visually stunning and the score is really beautiful, but if I see another slow motion shot of blood artfully splattering on white snow I will scream. :p:p This film also reminded me of "The Curse of the Golden Flower" (which I actually liked as the novelty was still there) ...There is very little story-telling or character development; instead, the audience is bombarded with sumptuous sets , beautiful choreography and lighting and lots of plotholes. lol. I think I'll be taking a vacation from these kinds of films for a long time...


I do like the torture / punishment scene though.
 
Bring me the Head of Alfredo Garcia

Watched this on free on-demand the other night. Written and Directed by Sam Peckinpah. A fairly violent and obsessive movie set in 1970's Mexico.

I would check it out.

Here's some info from imdb.com:

"An American bartender and his prostitute girlfriend go on a road trip through the Mexican underworld to collect a $1 million bounty on the head of a dead gigolo.

There was probably no greater director in the U.S. from 1969-1974 than Sam Peckinpah. He made seven films, ranging from classics (The Wild Bunch) to superior genre pics (The Getaway). And before his career began sliding, he had one more masterpiece in him: Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia. This is the story of one man's alcohol-fueled journey into dissolution and redemption and a really strange film. Warren Oates plays Benny, a piano player cajoled by a pair of men into finding Alfredo's head. See, Alfredo impregnated the daughter of a vicious landowner, and now he wants him dead. But this isn't really what the film is about. It's more about Benny, and how his journey costs him everything. Warren Oates is wonderful as Benny, and there are some great darkly comic moments between him and the head. And this is one of Michael Medved's 50 worst movies of all time - what more of a recommendation do you require? Seriously, this is a great film."
