Nah-ah.
There's a post where I talked about a segment of the film on youtube, not in this thread though.

Kalifornia, why has Brad Pitt never won an oscar, he can play absolutely everything, only a few are always convincing, he's a truly fantastic actor.
'wisdom teeth' is the coolest language mixup ever. It comes from Dutch, 'verstand' means wisdom. But it's really 'verre stand' which indicates the position of the teeth 'far off'. It somehow became 'verstand' over time because it sounds just about the same. It somehow slipped into English and now it's 'wisdom teeth'. Ever considered what's so wise about them

But the difference would be that other teeth are lost as a baby, not really losing any wisdom. When you get your wisdom teeth pulled (usually around 15-17), it marks the period where you do stupid things all the time (see: college).
That is an interesting nugget of knowledge though. I will definitely pass that on

The Grey, my movie of the year so far. There are a few unfortunate lines but it's captivating from beginning to end.
Battleship, what's with the negativity I greatly enjoyed it. It's loud and stupid in a good way, with plenty of laugh out loud moments. Main character deserves an Oscar for the scene when he practises asking the commander for the hand of his daughter and his Japanese nemesis walks in. I just had to watch that scene 3 times lololol
Well I saw The Dark Knight the other day. It's probably the best of Nolan's Batman films, allthough all three are very good. Only serious gripe: (Harvey) Twoface deserved more screen time.
On a related note, does anybody else remember how terrible the previous Batman film series was? (with the exception of the first, by Burton) Like, Schwarzenegger as mr. Freeze? Lol.
Yeah I loved it.
Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter is the last movie I saw. Absolutely incredible. It is B-grade but it doesn't try to aspite any higher than that. It is ridiculous, it has cheesy lines and lots of explosions and top hats. Lots of top hats. What more can a person ask for from a film?
Rest in Peace TosaInu, the Org will be your legacy

In the end Two Face was a lot more sinister than the Joker to me, the movie would have benefited from some more character-development. But it's absolutely awesome.

I guess I could see how giving both villains attention would require too much time and that would ruin both of them. Tragic villains are the best though, and Two-face is just that. The joker is a great character in itself, but as you say, there's no character development about him
Was more talking about two-face because he gets from good to hurted to evil. Very sinister scene when you realise he is actually going to kill the kid, they could have done more with his character, but maybe that would made film overly long. The joker doesn't need much depth, he just wants to see the world burn, he's just evil.
Anyway 'The Dark' pretty chilling supernatural thriller with some cool Celtic mythology. Sean Bean is always awesome.
Finally got around to seeing The Cabin in the Woods. Outstanding, and very clever. Kind of a meta-meta-slasher film. If you dig good writing, you will enjoy.

The Expendables II - 3/5
Ok, I'll be honest: this was a brutal letdown. It sucked in every way it is possible for a movie to suck, and in some ways that are fundamentally impossible for movies to suck. (Though to be honest I think I am being to nice to it with that description)
It was full of sexist/racist/ethnic stereotypes, ignored some of the important characters and ruined the others. It was all poorly filmed, cheesy bang with no storyline. The film quality was aweful at parts, the director should have his balls cut off by the jagged bones of whoever was in charge of filming, who should be fed into a meat grinder. It was exceptionally, ridiculously corny and there was no real soul to it like in the first one.
Also, it was much, much less realistic. (just when I thought that the first one couldn't get any less realistic)

I won't say that you are an idiot, as that would not be nice, but I will say that you can sometimes seem that way.
First of all, Sly did not direct this one (Unless you consider coaching a few of the actors on how to deliver their lines, which he apparently did), and was only marginally involved in making a few changes to the script. Their performance was not the problem ACING, it was the script and the overall directing, which they were not involved with. Those action stars are still the best in the world, and could outperform you, me, and anyone else on this forum when it comes to nearly all things physical. There are very few, young action stars today who can do the things Dolp Lungrend or Jet Li can do.
The first Expendables was excellent, even though it was made with a bunch of old guys. This one was messed up by the studio, not the stars.

Well to me expendables 2 looked like a parody i dont really realise what they wanted to do with this movie I mean it has some great scenes it was like a mix of action and parody. Bruce and Arnie messed the movie
Thank god that the movie had some jet li and Stateham influence cause it will sucked mostly as an action as a comedy it was nice. But i expected much better from all of them and i dont want to see any other movie that the shooting is being done like we are in 1800s
Log cabin was for me the second best untill the next one i saw in 2012

Expendables (1)
Saw this one with a buddy of mine with the idea of following it up with seeing the sequel in the theatres, though we haven't done that yet. 6.0/10. It's supposed to be some sort of tribute to 80/90'ies action movie but it doesn't succeed IMO, it's rather average overall. The big shot actors do not get equal coverage; not much of an issue to me personally because Statham was figured prominently and he's my favourite among the main cast (and Willis, though he's not part of the "main" cast)
I realise that it was never going to be more than a B+ movie, but I at least expected one or two memorable, amazing scenes in it, and it didn't deliver that for me.
