Saw Chef on the weekend, it's great, a simple tale about how a father connects with his son and finds happiness within himself. I love Jon Favreau as a writer director ever since Swingers.
the best part of the movie though was the lack of the Cliché Hollywood plot points and just told a simple story where things led to happy outcome

The Soundtrack is brilliant with a Cuban roll to it and great covers of classic songs too.

Robert Downey Jnr was great in a minor role as well as Dustin Hoffman.

Saw Godzilla today. It was pretty good. Not great though. The Humans to Monster Fight ratio was far too high in favour of humans. If you're making a movie called 'Godzilla' and the major fight between Godzilla and the Enemy Monsters is actually background vision to what your human characters are doing, you've failed as a movie director.

That said, the human characters are fairly likable, the story is pretty well written, and the scenes where the monsters and godzilla are the main focus, were fucking amazing. In fact the entire movie, visually, is awesome, very well shot. Just needed more Godzilla :lol:


Having just seen the movie 100% all of this. Less exposition more smashy.

If there was an Oscar for staring blankly into the distance, Ken Watanabe would be a lock.

That being said, the scenes with the monsters and just Godzilla himself in general are fucking incredible.

.

This is my hope. If this was the 'Introduction to Godzilla' and they pump out 5 or 6 more which are just 2 hours of Godzilla punching things repeatedly, then by all means, fantastic :lol:

Was introduced to the world of Kickstarter.

One of my best mates and I since 2011 have followed, and worshipped, a TV series called Blue Mountain State. They wanted to make a movie but didn't have funds, etc so they've campaigned on Kickstarter to get fan pledges to help fund the movie.

So cool to feel like we're contributing to what we hope is one of our favourite movies ever!


Yeah BMS is one of my favourites too, Thad Castle is a brilliant character.
I don't know if you've heard but they recently announced that they've made budget but are aiming for more, but regardless of how much they raise now it's guaranteed to go ahead! Also Jay Chandrasekhar of Broken. Lizard fame (Super Troopers, Beer Fest, Slammin Salmon etc) has signed on to direct, he's directed a few episodes in the last too so it should be good.


Yes! My mate & I's favourite character is Thad, and without a doubt the best episode in our eyes is the one where the power goes out and the opposition team is at the goat house, and their captain is exactly the same as Thad!

Yeah I knew ages ago they were planning on the movie, but only today was introduced to the world of kickstarter and had noticed they'd already achieved their goals. But we still pledged, to help contribute but also to get some cool stuff!

Far out, I'm excited for it!

Yeah I saw it without reading the reviews, I quite enjoyed it.

Trailers talked it up a bit though, was expecting more of an AI gone wild trashing the world type scenario.

I still don't know whether I thoroughly enjoyed it or was just weirded out by it. Couldn't stop watching it, though.
