The "I'm watching/just watched *movie title* thread....

[West of the Rockies]

Been catching up on 'Revolution' TV series.  What is about Charlie that I find so intriguing?  Is it here eyes or her lethality.  Reminds me of High school and being a gaming geek, "I''d roll the dice with her and come up with...."

She is strong, bright and fierce -- what's not to like?  I hope you roll a 19...  No, no, no, no... 19.

Archer is one of the best shows out there.

Just watched:
Cat-women of the Moon (1953)

So stupid, so campy, so flawed it's… hilarious. I think I found it on Archive.Org (free) Public Domain. We could actually have an entire thread to discuss the hundreds of plot gaffs. If only I knew what a "gaff" was.

[paladin1991]

Noory is the ultimate gaff.  But I digress fm the thread.

Onan, Nicely said. I hope I didn't ruffle your feathers- to respond to part of your post I want to try to assure you that I don't select words just to appear to reach for credibility, I use the words that seem to best describe what I'm thinking. And we are somewhat speaking to cross purposes here in that I don't think one can intellectually argue the existence of God, but what I was trying to say was the exercise is still very beneficial. For instance, we learn how to articulate and define our thoughts and ideas.

I also asserted that I thought there  was  evidence for something more to evolution than random mutation. But that might not rise to the level of an anthropomorphic God. And this is exactly why I brought up epistemology and ontology, for a reason not just for fluff.   Before we can argue the existence of something we must first define it.

I have no doubt that you are honest in your position.

My complaint is really about the similarity in studying religion and attending Hogwarts (sp). From an historical position I am interested in the beliefs of people. To extend that study to finding a true god... I would just as soon find some eye of newt and dragon's teeth.

Going to watch this tomorrow night I saw it years ago.. wonder if it still stands up

The trailer is somewhat misleading

Iron Sky: The Director's Cut ... well worth watching

[WhiteCrow]

The Great Lie (1941)

Great babes in that movie: Bette Davis and Mary Astor!

[UnscreenedCaller]

Today's Special (2009),  formulaic but charming story about an haute cuisine Indian chef and his father's restaurant in Queens. For once, the exteriors were spot on, absolutely shot in and around the area.

enjoyed this movie

Just watched The World's Fastest Indian. Well worth the two hours, even if you aren't interested in motorcycles. Anthony Hopkins is great.

I saw the teaser trailer months and months ago... glad it lived up to the promise... I hope the feature length version of this will also be as good.

Just watched "Laura", 1944. With Gene Tierney, Dana Andrews, Vincent Price and others. TCM gives it four stars. I did like it. Good whodunit. IMDb Users rate it 8.2 out of 10.

Saw that on TCM the other night. A good one indeed. Watched "The Bad Seed" again last night. Excellent, but creepy film. And such an odd ending (of sorts) and then the odd credits that are reminiscence of a play with each person coming out and announcing their name and character played. And then the spanking end. Funny after such a creepy movie.  Going to watch "Lured" tonight I think (George Sanders, Boris Karloff, Charles Coburn- and Lucille Ball! Seems like very promising movie.)

I believe that is an early Otto Preminger movie.  Film scholars credit that with beginning of the 'noir'.  Or not.  I may be confusing films and film knowledge.  Haven't really had my head in that world in a while.

The ending of The Bad Seed was changed from the book and play to comply with the Hays code, and so there's that moment of divine retribution on the pier. But in the original, the mother gives her an overdose, shoots herself and dies, the daughter presumably going on to commit more murders.

Orphan Black.  This actress is phenomenal.

Thanks for that. Ive seen before but so long ago, I guess. Or seeing so many decades after see in new light. But I always thought the end (of movie) was weird, esp now. (Maybe I never saw whole movie back then?) I thought thr ending was made almost post-hoc, because your (I mean u mention the original play\book) makes more sense to the movie. Tho movie is still good. Also interesting about Hays, didnt realise all the way to 68. I do wonder tho if the 'code' made movies better, in a way? At least some. Of course other elements n contractual arrangements with actors etc. But I still say there is some more intrique, beauty, corruption, suspense, n even sex appeal in many of evem bad production movies of that era than now.

demon seed (1977).

Julie Christie will NEVER get that SmartHome plan from Time Warner!!

D_dubb, interesting!

Watched "play it again, Sam", Woody Allen, Diane Keaton. 1972  I think it was the first Woody Allen-Diane Keaton vehicle. It was pretty good but getting a little dated and cliched at this point. It was a bit unsettling when you consider the themes of that movie and Allen's later life exploits. It was as if the movie was a sublimation of Allen's inner hormonal urges.

There's a detective on this show named Arthur Bell.  There are no coincidences.

The last movie I watched was "Joe". For a Nic Cage movie, it was pretty good. He needs to do more roles like these to fix his credibility as an actor.

"Joe" was a damn good book.  Larry Brown was a fine writer and it was a shame he died so young.  That book reminded me of "As I Lay Dying".  Definitely had a similar narrative voice. 

[West of the Rockies]

Haven't seen it yet, but Joss Whedon's new In Your Eyes looks pretty interesting!
