"Now Showing"

Just found some rather random film news. Sony are going to make a film based off a game. In a couple of years time we will be seeing Rollercoaster Tycoon: The Movie! WTF?

Source: Total Film
 
^It'll probably just be about some Tycoon guy trying to make a successful theme park in a run down area or something. Not sure if that whole thing about a kid being sucked into the game and having to save it from the 'evil' competitive park next door.
Actually I just reckon it'll just be a cheesy family film in 3D with lots of rides in CGI.
 
To prevent this topic being effectively killed through discussion of a film that won't be out, if at all, for at least couple of years, can we please discuss the Roller Coaster Tycoon film here:

I finally got around to watching La Vie En Rose this afternoon. Hmmmm, not sure about the film really. Edith Piaf is one of my idols, so I knew her "story" already. However, Marion Cotillard was incredible! It's probably the best performance I've seen by an actress for years, and I can see myself watching this again just to watch her. I was almost a bit tearful at the end. Love Piaf's music as well. Non, Je ne Regrette Rien is in my top ten of best songs ever.

Film: 7/10
Cotillard: 100/10
Music: 10/10
 
Saw Four Lions last weekend. Thought I might as well find out whether it was as funny as the trailers made out or whether it was as insensitive as The One Show made out. Verdict = it was genuinely an excellent film. Hugely funny, really well acted, and well written and put together by Chris Morris as usual. There was a very large amount of research done prior to the film to ensure accuracy, and I think a lot of the controversy surrounding the film is a bit of a knee-jerk reaction due to the subject matter of the film. As usual with Chris Morris though, its a satire, but a well put-together satire of a real situation, and does actually touch on some serious issues out there.

5/5.
 
Kenneth Branaugh's Hamlet

Besides being FOUR HOURS LONG, it was a good movie, and stayed true to the book pretty much word for word. Something is strangely sexy about guys being in those olden day uniforms as well.. But yah anyway, I thought Branaugh was brilliant as Hamlet, and the rest of the cast was really good, too. The ending scene with the fencing was one of the best scenes in a movie I have seen for a while.

8/10

Next up is..

Daybreakers

I'd NEVER have watched this if it were up to me simply because I think vampire movies are retarded, but it wasn't that bad I guess. The vampires who were deprived of blood (Subsetters or something?) were creepy as anything, and the movie was just okay. Nothing I'll remember in a few months time, but mindless entertainment anyway.

6.5/10
 
A few nights ago I went to see Four Lions. I'd heard such good things about it, and it appealed to me anyway, so I wanted to see it and hopefully enjoy. I'll be honest, it was funny, but only had about 3 proper laugh-out-loud moments. Many of the "jokes" were subtitled silly and naff insults, which simply weren't funny. The story was quite good, if a bit patchy and lacklustre at times. Without being racist at all, I thought the film was sort of "against" Asians and Muslims, yet literally 3/4s of the people in the screening were Asian/Muslim. they seemed to find it much funnier than me, which is nice to see.

Overall, I left feeling like I'd missed something. It was good, just not as good as I would have liked.

^^I think you did Peep, i've geniunely never laughed out loud so much in a film!

I don't particularly think the film was against muslims (or more correctly, Islamic Jihadis maybe...), I think it was more illustrating that suicide bombers are often just misguided young lads looking for a purpose, and that was something that I think Chris Morris conveyed very strongly, and very well, in the film.

Me!? I haven't even seen the film yet! :p I think you mean Cial. However I do plan on seeing this film at some point within the next week. It's really annoying, the company I work for turned down the chance to work on this film too :(
 
^Haha, sorry! I don't know how I managed to do that! I didn't think you'd be fooled quite that easily by a bit of satire!

Alter all my above comments from Peep to Ciall plz. Thx.
 
How to Train Your Dragon

Yum. I loved this movie. Another animated movie I thought that wouldn't perform that gave good laughs, a unique story, and good fun.

9/10


Robin Hood

Well.. I thought it would be a copy of Gladiator.. which is basically was.. but the movie was still quite good. Definitely not as bad as I thought.

7.5/10


The Losers

Kick. Ass.

I'm still trying to digest a review on Robin Hood...

Some of it did seem funny for completely the wrong reason though... :lol:

Just... I still don't know what to think about the film... Really don't... And I don't want to rush out and see it again...
 
The House Bunny

Stupid, pointless humour, but still enjoyable I guess. It was pretty predictable, though I like watching these because it doesn't require like, any thought.

7/10

Those are sometimes the best laughs.. completely inappropriate situations.. haha.

Well let it roll around in your mind like naked thoughts of me, then lets see how ya feel. :)
 
We went to the cinema and Martyn H wanted to see Furry Vengeance. It was simply awful. The worst film I have probably ever seen, I didn't laugh nor raise a smile at all during the film and it was embarrassing to watch and I felt in pain throughout. I recommend you seeing this film if you have already commit suicide so you don't hurt yourself. The lowest film I have ever rated on IMDB.

1/10

We then went to see Hot Tub Time Machine, though Martyn had already seen it. It was quite good, rather amusing and had a Plesentville-esque feel to it, which I can't explain as the two films are quite different in their presentation and content. It wasn't amazing, but a good watch.

7/10
