Okay......change a little bit..... Anyone know why Breaking Bad only release 3 episodes per year? I know is the best show ever, but that's kinda harsh.

Kick-Ass 2 and watch the HitGirl cut off the man's hand

or just watch I Spit On Your Grave and watch the girl get his revenge

P.S. These are rated 18+(because of its bloody scenes and... you know what are those "things" you expect from an 18+) or if you have the guts to watch those bloody fountains or if you have your permission from your parents because you are too young to watch this.

Gore? Try watching Saw for a night and you could not sleep for 10 days.

iamxaxas · Apr 8, 2014

Aliens 4ever!

The funniest is that I only got scared the second time I watched it...

nhs325 · Apr 9, 2014

Alien or Aliens? They are both really good. Part 3 sucks.

I laughed the whole series.

Only saw the first two, so I can't really say anything beyond that... Still, they're both very well done, for 70's/80's movies. Just remember: Always check in the little corners for hand-like creatures

Rio 2! Another masterpiece from Blue Sky.

Adiktuz · Apr 23, 2014

Transcendence is a nice movie, if you're interested in that kind of topic (which AFAIK is actually being researched by someone already)

RED BARON · May 2, 2014

Well one of my favorite movies of all time is V for Vendetta. But of newer ones I am unsure, anyone seen the new spiderman? The first one in that reboot was quite good.

nhs325 · May 3, 2014

Yes I have. also, has anyone of you watched Inception yet? A masterpiece from Christopher Nolan.

I would be surprised if they haven't. Most people I know, at least those in my generation have all seen it. And yea, it is quite the decent flick.

Adiktuz · May 6, 2014

You simply don't watch Inception once... XD

Almia · May 8, 2014

Watch Ted.

I thought it was "for child" movie like. But when many minutes pass, oh god.

nhs325 · May 8, 2014

Ted is a really cool movie. Also, i have been watching movies in the Nights of Answomess on Star Movies. kinda like blockbusters every Sat nights.

GreeN!X · May 8, 2014

Been watching the wolf of wall street. Some find it disturbing, some find it awesome. What do you guys think?

nhs325 · May 10, 2014

Just watched Coraline and 9, and they are atonishingly good.

I liked it, though there was quite a bit more hardcore scenes than I expected from it, due to the usual censoring for American movies.

Orcnet · May 12, 2014

So yeah whenever a good movie shows up on my local area, people just can't stop expressing spoilers especially when Amazing Spiderman 2 went out.

Good thing I already knew what's going to happen from the very start why Marvel ditch the whole Tobey Maguire trilogy and for being straight on a comic book reference.

So which one is better? The Tobey Maguire one or the Andrew Garfield one?

Well I haven't seen the new one, but I quite liked the first amazing spiderman - having read little about the second except for glancing at a negative review about it, I am rather curious as to how it compares.

I can't say the first Spiderman movies are not good, I'll have to pick the new one to be better. I don't know maybe because of each Marvel movie having a 'phase' which is cool.

I actually haven't watched part 2, I just got bumped when people do spoilers, I guess its gonna work out I mean Marvel Studios is planning to make some of Spiderman's enemies and make a similar avengers title. :wink:

Celaquil · May 13, 2014

I just realized yesterday why season 4, Game of Thrones, hasn't been so very
giving until now for me, it's been the overall lack of Tyrion Lannister's awesomeness.

Just wanted to give a shout-out for Peter Dinklage, playing my favourite character
like a fucking artists.

Deolrin · May 13, 2014

It HASN'T been very giving? What about last night's episode? :O

Celaquil · May 13, 2014

Yes, that's my point exactly.

Let me edit my post to make things clearer.

iamxaxas · May 13, 2014

And here I am... thinking about suicide for not having watched any episodes from season 4 yet... :goblin_cry:

Yea, always more Superheroes stuff to watch. I do enjoy that we are seeing another wave of them.

Scroll down and check my official GODZILLA 2014 review out on IMDb, they accepted it

!
http://www.imdb.com/user/ur52845584/?ref_=nv_usr_prof_0

I give it an 8.5 out of 10 but IMDb.com only allows whole numbers. So a 9 will do.
Tell me if you liked it! (Or not, it was pretty short IMO)

PS. I typed it on a tablet.

Orcnet · May 29, 2014

Just watched X-Men: Days of Future Past during my birthday along with my family. Just wow talk about the ultimate rollback.

The prodigal son returns to fix the absolute mess #3 left behind it.

I was quite happy with Days of Future Past, but there are a lot of things I can complain about.

1)I wish there was way more development in the future story. While the 70s stuff was neat, I much preferred the story and setting in the future.

2)More action. There really wasn't much action for what I consider to be an action genre. The beginning fight with the future mutants was awesome. Like really really awesome. Then the rest (what little there was) was only ok. Fights were super short in the 70s timeline.

3)Less Wolverine. I know the Hughverine combo sells tickets, but I'm kinda tired of him being the main character.

And more, but whatever.

StoPCampinGn00b · May 30, 2014

Anyone care to critisize my review?

Razosh · Jun 3, 2014

In game of thrones yesterday we got to witness the most tragic death yet in my opinion. Have you seen it what did you think?

WerBackIII · Jun 3, 2014

Even though I knew that

was coming at the very end of the episode, I was still very, very shocked. Damn, another great character gone in the most gruesome way.

Also, less spoiler-y, I really like the Sansa/Petyr interactions. Man, I love those two.

(And I dearly hope that Petyr is still alive by the end of the series.)

Celaquil · Jun 5, 2014

Besides being a movie filled to the brim by loop-holes and that it doesn't make any sense
nearly at all concerning the x-men universe, Days of a Future Past was pretty sweet.
Not as dark and gritty as I'd like it to be, but still great.

nhs325 · Jun 6, 2014

Edge of Tomorrow. Too good to be true.

Callahan · Jun 7, 2014

Also Bolivar Trask being a midget for no reason at all.

Deolrin · Jun 7, 2014

Are you dissing on Peter Dinklage? 'Cause that's not cool.

Callahan · Jun 7, 2014

Deolrin said:

Not him personaly.Just being a midget is uncommon condition and use of midget in movies usualy serves a purpose of their condition like in Willow.
In case of Bolivar Trask he was never represented as a midget in any comics asaik and just hired him for fan service or for the heck of positive discrimitation.
I didn't mind though.Just felt random.

Deolrin · Jun 7, 2014

I do believe the correct term is 'dwarf'. And Peter Dinklage is a great actor, so why the heck not?

Callahan · Jun 7, 2014

Deolrin said:

Why the heck not?Because he's a midget or dwarf if you want.
Doesn't matter he's a great actor.The character he's supposed to play is not a midget.They didn't hired a skinny guy to play Wolverine but there's plenty of great skinny actors.

Of course they're not going to put a skinny guy playing Wolverine, because the character isn't skinny (besides, Hugh Jackman actually looks like the Wolverine from the Comic Books... weird, isn't it?)

Read the whole conversation before quoting me in sarcasm.

Callahan said:

did I look sarcastic? sorry

Anyways, I did see the whole conversation (I didn't watch that movie so please don't dehead me if I say something stupid) and about that Peter Dinklage thing, I think you have a point, but it's simple: a famous actor always means more tickets sold.

About Wolverine (simple as well): If they put some nobody skinny actor (even if a good actor) playing Wolverine, they'd end up killed by the fans... Besides, Wolverine is all about the physics, even his somewhat beastly personality (imagine a skinny fellow saying Wolerine's most fearsome sentences - that strikes fear in the heart *now I'm being sarcastic* :grin:

) while that character you were talking about (I'm only speculating, please correct me if I'm wrong) is probably more about personality than the physical aspects, so there's the possibility of putting a more famous actor, even if he doesn't match physical description, playing that character, so they can get a little bit more cash for the movie.

Still, I feel your pain: I know how it feels when the film producers ruin a good story/character - take Eragon or The Host for instants (even though there are better books), their respective movies were, in my opinion, mankind's two worst failures.

While your point is true, no one knows (general public) who Bolivar Trask is. It's not the same as casting Benedict Cumberbatch as Wolverine.

You are right though, it is a bit odd to cast Peter as Trask since he was never a midget in the comics. Worked fine though.

Orcnet · Jun 15, 2014

Seconded to both Callahan and Gilles, they could have just picked an actor who is taller, not trying to be offensive but that's what I watched on the 1992 X-Men cartoon and basing the comics as well.

I was expecting Master Mold to go rogue but meh, movie is a movie.

Nuclear · Jun 21, 2014

I recommend True Detective.

nhs325 · Jun 22, 2014

Just checked out the new Game of Thrones episode.....
FINALLY! The Wall has been breached!
They shouldn't build that thing at first.

Nuclear · Jun 22, 2014

It's been a week so I think everyone has had enough time, but regardless, spoiler warning:

Not sure if you're kidding or something but they didn't breach the wall. And I think it's stupid they even had a chance. I mean, the wall is huge. The Great Wall of China is a lot smaller and it's regarded as one of the greatest defensive structures ever built by man. If the show was at all realistic, the crows could have just pissed on the wildlings from the top of the wall and not worry about them.

Also the wildlings sent to climb the wall would have frozen to death or dropped to their deaths.

Gilles · Jun 22, 2014

Nah, we shouldn't bother using spoiler tags when discussing the latest episode of the most popular show ever. That would be a silly idea.

Spoilers!
@Nuclear:

Yeah I agree, but it's a fantasy world and everything is exaggerated in order to awe. Also they had giants to bash down the gates. Where those giants were when Stannis showed up is beyond me. I think they should have put up wayyyy more of a fight there. The episode needed to wrap up so many plots though.
