The only movie that comes to mind that I couldn't finish was Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band (made in 70's). You'd think, with Peter Frampton, Steve Martin, Alice Cooper, and like 5 other well-known actors/musicians guest appearing in it, the movie wouldn't be so bad. Wrong. Wrongwrongwrongwrongwrong. I got about half-way through it and just couldn't handle it anymore. The lip syncing and acting was just so terrible, I don't honestly see how it could have even been released. Apparently Peter Frampton and everyone else thought that The Beatles were going to appear in it so they all joined in, but after signing a contract saying they HAD to do the movie and learning that The Beatles weren't going to be in it they decided to just screw around and not even try, since there wasn't really anything they could do to get out of it. I saw the movie on Netflix, not sure if it's still on there though

(04-13-2013, 05:20 PM)Mass Distraction Wrote: Second was Wicked City. I have no idea how this got rated for 16+ with all the pornographic scenes. I had absolutely no idea that something I thought was gonna be a cool horror anime would have so many sex scenes. That spider woman was one of the creepiest things ever. The plot was so confusing that even the main character admitted he had no idea what was going on.
I thought I'd elaborate a bit on this one, just so I could share my thoughts on the insanity that this movie was. I'll spoiler it as it's most likely going to be R-rated material.
My main gripe with the movie is the constant and seemingly unrelated sex scenes. Not that I'd have anything against sex in general, I just find it weird when they seemingly forced (quite literally) those scenes. The plot of the whole movie is to have the female demon, the second main character, pregnant with a human child to seal the deal between the human world and what I can only assume is Hell but here referred to as "Shadow World". Of course, this plot point wasn't revealed until the last ten minutes of the movie. At one point the woman gets seemingly snatched by some kind of a tentacle monster whose main attack seems to be an inexplicable blow-job kind of move. Why it felt like slapping that tentacle in her mouth, I don't know. Before this the chick had been attacked by her ex-boyfriend who almost raped her, only for the main character to burst in the room and get his ass whooped, after which the chick revealed she was actually totally on top of things (no pun intended) and had only been "toying" with her ex. Not enough rape for ya? When the woman was taken back to the demon world (Hell) she was obviously getting gang-banged. I would guess that since she was a demon and this was (presumably) Hell and the whole plot being about getting her pregnant (in addition to that deal with her ex) her punishment would've been one fitting for her obvious cardinal sin, Lust. That is, being fucked to death. Literally. They even mentioned that being the purpose of the whole scene. Then again, I might be thinking too deeply into this, not to mention that we didn't even know what on earth the movie was about until the last ten minutes or so, which in turn is about 40 minutes after this. Oh yeah, and they were protecting some pervy old dude this whole time, only for him to reveal the true plot, eventually. One of the most ridiculous parts was when he actually said that he was only being pervy to make the main characters horny and have sex so that the human-demon hybrid baby could be created. Honestly, a wrinkled old man is propably the biggest turn-off ever, just... why. In any case, when the woman was saved in the end she said that she actually surrendered herself to the demons after the attack of the tentacle monster. Which was destroyed before it could even take her away. By the old man, who pretended to have a stroke so the main guy would... I don't even know, leave the woman they were trying to save to die? This movie was a total clusterfuck, let me tell you. Did I mention one of the demons had a special skill of having a huge vagina on her chest. Apparently it hypnotizes men, or something. Go figure.
Aaaanyway, the only people I would suggest this film to would be someone with serious problems in their life. Having some kind of fetish should help, too. Even then, there's actual porn out there so why bother?

It was so good. SO DAMN GOOD.
I saw it a few days ago and it was great, except I thought it was gonna end at like 3 different points at the end. There are also allot of scenes that are screen saver worthy.

I saw A Clockwork Orange for the first time. I was very nervous because of what I'd been told, and what little clips I'd seen of it, but at the same time it sounded like something I might like to see due to the whole idea of trying to "cure" someone of their violent tendencies.
I was able to sit through it just fine and some of it I actually found to be a bit cheesy. I am glad that I saw it, but it was a bit over hyped. It may have been rated X back in the day but I've seen today's R movies that haunted me after I saw them.
At least I now know the opening of Conker spoofs this.

Glad you finally saw it. It's definitely a cult classic.

I just recently saw the new Star Trek movie, it was surprisingly amazing and I loved it, and Reservoir Dogs. With Reservoir Dogs I didn't really know what to expect, but it after watching it I can really say it's one of my favorite movies of all time.

Django Unchained was pretty badass. I seriously need to hunt down a copy of Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction so I can have them on my shelf with all my other Tarantino movies.
Speaking of Django, has anyone seen the original movie? I just read about it a while ago.

I saw the Purge a few hours ago, it was ok, but the whole Purge idea was sort of tossed aside, I would've liked to see more of what people did when they could do anything.
Instead some guys killed some other guys.
Meh.

I LOVED it. It really made me think. I can't really explain how or why, but it just really makes me think.

I had a chocolate soft serve shake at one of the nearby ice cream shops where I live.
It was delicious.
