  • Gravity was indeed an amazing visual experience in the theater.

    Tarantinos Hateful Eight is also getting good reviews, as well as The Big Short. Christmas is wonderful this year for movies.

  • Been waiting for years. I simply cannot WAIT to see it.

    That, among other things. 😁

  • Pettine: Haslam never told you what happened to your father.

    Johnny: He told me enough! He told me you killed him!

    Pettine: No Johnny, I am your father...

    Johnny: NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

  • Johnny Jedi premiering this week.

  • I'm ready for the biggest movie release in cinematic history on December 17th. A sequel in an amazing franchise, and a movie likely to shatter every single box office record...

    If I played RHPS for my wife the only thing she'd do is lay me out! 😛

    hoorta-you should have seen Gravity in 3D IMAX-best movie I ever saw that way.

    With my mountaineering bent- I did see "Everest" in 3D IMAX, I have to admit it was better than the standard. But I much preferred the 2D version of Avatar on my home theater system way better than the 3D version on the big screen. (3D impaired individuals tend to just see multiple layers of 2D images, & it's real distracting.)

    BTW, us folks that are amateur astronomers and wannabe space adventurers know the whole premise of "Gravity" is a bunch of impossible orbital mechanics. A meteor shower is possible, high velocity space junk? Nope. I gave that move a B minus.

  • Heading to the movies tonight with a bunch of my friends that have wifes that won't go see it either. Haha.

    2d for me. I pass on most 3d movies.

    I will say though, the best use of the 3d effect I did see was the new Judge Dredd movie.

    There was a drug in the Movie called "Slo-Mo" and the only time the 3d effect came into play was when someone took the drug, the screen turned 3d and everything slowed down. It was pretty awesome. I think I might have been one of about 100 people that actually saw that movie in the theater... haha. My cousin and I were the only two people there the day I went.

  • Just saw it, actually kind of a let down. It has its moments but is nowhere near worth the praise or hype. Definitely is worth seeing once though if your a fan like me.

    Just not a fan of the direction they took is all.

  • I'm more interested in where "Prometheus" is headed. F Star wars and the stupid little care bears that ruined the whole thing.

    Prometheus? The Charlize Theron sci-fi....successor to Alien movie?

    Is it going anywhere? Are they even talking about a sequel to it?

    Disappointing...imo....but I guess we can take that argument to the WSS Movie board.

    You mean the care bears that singlehandedly beat the Empire?

    Yep, makes as much sense as Farmer leading us to the promised land. Rest my case. 😛

    Gip-yep the next one starts shooting in Jan and due out Oct 2016.

    Well, considering it happened in the movie, you just gave Farmer your endorsement.

    Also, I'm worried Covenant won't address much of what happened in Prometheus.

    I actually like science fiction movies but have never seen a Stat Wars movie and I'm 53. Perhaps I'll check this one out. Speaking of Scyfy did anyone watch Childhoods End mini series on Scfy this week? I loved it.

    I posted my "preliminary" review over on West Side Steve's movie forum if you're interested. (no spoilers) I'll just say- if you're expecting the best Star Wars ever- you're going to be disappointed. I agree with the one review I read- very good, but not "great".

    As a big fan of the series- but not to the extent I'll ever dress up in costume for a premier- I've got some issues with the mythology that I'll expound on later when more folks have seen it.
