Highly recommend. I honestly don't mind him hey (as an actor). As a human being he's a dick, but his roles in movies I can't fault. Has that CGI type movie nailed down imo. -PB

Very frustrating.

Well they do show Eric getting his powers back at the end of X3 ;) so it would be safe to assume they would come back over time

Charles is only alive because we are all trying to forget X3.
But DOFP was great. Not my favourite one, but still great.

Not a bad movie. Isiah Washington plays his character well, and Tequan Richmond is OK as his adopted son. It's certainly not a fast moving film, quite dark, and slow. Whilst it doesn't focus entirely on the actual sniper shootings themselves (there's a few scenes towards the end of the film) it's more about the psychological build up before the shootings, and an explanation of the mental state of 'John' and why he committed them.

Really liked the storyline in it , something different with good CGI Just thinking, when Cruise and Blunt were getting close to the omega in that facility in Paris, [spoiler]couldn't the Omega have just killed the Alpha and reset time again?[/spoiler]

Saw EoT today. Was blown away by how good it was, far better than X-men or Godzilla. I thought Cruise was good (once again), and he gets alot of undeserved stick. Oh and Emily Blunt was :cool: If I was Cage, I would've killed myself over and over to see her rising sweatily off the ground in that yoga pose. Thought the ending was a bit of a cop out, albeit very confusing: [spoiler]I don't understand why Cage woke up when he did. He kills the Omega a few hours before the invasion is set to begin, yet he wakes up a day or two earlier than that?[/spoiler] aufc_ole wrote:[spoiler]Just thinking, when Cruise and Blunt were getting close to the omega in that facility in Paris, couldn't the Omega have just killed the Alpha and reset time again?[/spoiler] [spoiler]Maybe it wouldn't work because the Omega would be the one with that power - it would inadvertently have to live the same day over and over again until Cage didn't even come to Paris? [/spoiler].

[spoiler] It was because "we know from the opening of the film that Cage’s day originally started hours earlier, prior to his fateful meeting with General Brigham, when his helicopter arrived at UDF headquarters. If in fact time has adjusted to the death of the Mimics, then Cage avoids meeting with the General – since Operation Downfall is no longer necessary. For that reason, Cage would never have been marked a deserter, never been knocked out, and would have never awakened on the airport tarmac. As time anticipates and adjusts to the changes, Cage’s waking moment reverts to its original starting point – when the helicopter landed at the UDF.[/spoiler] 433 wrote:[spoiler]Maybe it wouldn't work because the Omega would be the one with that power - it would inadvertently have to live the same day over and over again until Cage didn't even come to Paris? [/spoiler]. What was the main goal of the Omega again?

Saw 'A million ways to die in the West' last night. Not bad, got some good laughs out of it. It's definitely not a movie to take seriously. But yeah, Seth Rogan is pretty good in it. Good for a laugh. Charlize Theron is stunning as per normal. South African chicks man. Definitely got a thing for 'em. :lol:

The rover Dir david michod (animal kingdom)
Nihilistic film which explores into the concept of killing someone, in the way someone is violated in the act
Its the best film guy pearce has been in since the proposition Unlike animal kingdom, David michod has made a distinctly uncommercial, difficult movie to understand, in terms of character motive. The only common ground between animal kingdom and this film is the violence
And robert Pattinson gives an amazing performance in his role, the character is hard to understand with the pronouncing of his lines, but he was convincing as the deranged character that tagged along. I wouldnt mind it if Pattinson did more roles like this

Watched The Lego Movie last night, coincidentally as I was halfway through reading the book 1984. Is The Lego Movie meant to be a tribute/reference/etc to 1984, because man it felt like it was!
Crazy movie though. Couldn't look away for 10 seconds or you'd miss about 3 scene changes plus be about 30mins behind in the storyline :lol: some pretty hilarious moments though, and much respect given to how awesome it looked.
