Summer Movie Thread

Simon Pegg, who plays the ginger computer guy in MI3, went to the same primary school as me!

Best film I've seen this year has to be Inside Man.  Watched it in German in the cinema first of all, and it was amazing!

Just saw X3.  Definitely the best of the 3.

Some sequences were a little over the top and entirely unnecessary, but despite this, I say it's a must see movie. 8)

I disagree.  X3, liek most of the movies so fa this year, was simply meh.  First two are much better.

Poseidon is a good show if you're really up for thrillers. You'll tend to keep wondering if anybody's going to die at any point in the film. Pretty mindless though, the plot is quite simple, as is the case with most thrillers.

X3 is much darker and menacing than the 2 prior, while packing as much action (if not more).  These are qualities that I can appreciate in a film.  It also had a more mature feel to it.  I greatly suspect that I liked it more for the same reasons I like the Alien movies.  Read between the lines on that one because I won

Don't mind me then, I'm no movie expert. Frequency of viewings is rather low compared with an average person. I thought it was pretty good, but I won't exalt it.

[chatfsh]

No really, Poseidon wasn't awful.  During the whole movie I was on edge because I was facing my two worst nightmares.  I just thought it had the potential to be soooo much better.

Just saw Xmen3.

Great movie. Didn't like how it was daytime and then in another shot became night time when the final battle started.

spoilers

[hide]I think they killed off too many main characters... no more patrick stewart?!? unless he transferred to another body like said at beginning of movie, but still. So only remaining characters from first movie are storm, wolverine, rogue doesnt count if she lost powers, and iceman (but he wasn't a player in first movie).

So did the chess part move at end? I wasn't sure. Maybe the cure was only temporary, such as being near the boy[/hide]

holy fuc*!!!! I knew I knew Kitty Pryde looked familiar! Ellen Page is off of Trailer park boys second season! Good to see she made it big on the big screen. It was killing me that I knew who the person was.

mmm

EDIT: Sad, now I'm on her fanwebsite, and logged in with a bugmenot account (sad that there is a bugmenot account))

Someone stop me please.

EDIT2: wtf Kelsey Grammer was in the movie? I missed that. EDIT: oh he was the beast, that could be why.

Last EDIT: After too much time looking, I finally found pics of "Treena Lahey" ;)

Andrew, read this:

[hide]In the end after the credits, it shows the patient from the beginning wakening with Xavier's mind in it.[/hide]

[Andrew]

@Acriku-

I guess it pays to see ending credits.

I figured that is exactly what happened, why else would they have shown it.

possible spoiler

[hide]but still, it wont be patrick stewart playing the part? I know they havn't announced the 4th movie yet.[/hide]

[veK]

last movie I have seen was "running scared". I really liked it.

[hide]Apparently that man is Xavier's twin.[/hide]

[Andrew]

[hide]Apparently that man is Xavier's twin.[/hide]

[hide]Umm, if it is his twin, he didn't look it in the video at the first of the movie. Unless there are more brain dead bodies, and one was his twin.[/hide]

[hide] you know... this quoted hidden text looks really ridicolous  ;D [/hide]

Good movie.
