I saw Terminator Salvation today.
It was complete crap. Worse than the 3rd one by a considerable margin.

What was the last film you saw?

Or, if you'd like, ask me about Terminator Salvation. I might answer.

Aw man, really?
We're going to see that on Friday.

The last film I watched was called Time Crimes. It's ace. It's a Spanish kind of sci fi film. I'd suggest people watch it and avoid reading about it or seeing any trailers for it cos it'll ruin it for you.

Really.
I honestly wanted to like it, but it was just a mess. A lot of the action was borrowed from the other 3 films. Especially a fight towards the end.
(I helped save b3ta! WHARRGARBL, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:09, archived)
well really,
there have been enough films made already, really, haven't there? All filming should stop, and we should just splice together bits of films that have already been made. High-speed chase? Use some Ben Hur. Bar scene? Bit of Casablanca. Heroine punches hero some time prior to kissing him? Indiana Jones. etc.

also there have been quite enough posts on /talk. we should restrict ourselves to only posting links to posts already in existence, in order to say what we have to say

Like in Bullitt
where they splice in the same fucking bit of the car chase NINE TIMES*, just from different camera angles. You cunts.

*alright, it was probably only five, but the point remains

it was at least 400 times. San Fransicso isn't that big. They would've been half way to Mexico

We should go see Drag Me To Hell next week.

you know what's a really great film?
Hellboy 2

man, I hope they make another Hellboy film

I've not seen the 3rd one,
I saw the trailer for Salvation though and it looked quite good. Oh well.

Pizza Hut are doing Terminator pizzas. "Salvation from hunger." FFS.
It's ostensibly just pepperoni and onion.

The last film I saw was the new Star Trek. I liked it a lot.

they should have called it "terminator of salivation" or summat

that vin diesel, he's never made a shit film in his life.

The last film I saw was...
Night at the museum as it was tv the other day. I am so behind in films, but that's not really new.
(I helped save b3ta! Pickle Fairy is clumsily dancing away this fear, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:10, archived)
If you get the chance, see Night At The Museum 2 in the cinema.
It's very good.

Oh FFS
I take back my apprehension about Terminator now then. Night At The Museum 2: The Klumps.

all films should feature Keanu Reeves and Jar Jar Binks
Schindler's List would have been ace with those two

Saw Star Trek last week, which I liked very much.
I'm looking forward to any and all sequels they produce.
(I helped save b3ta! Noit happy baby orangutan, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:33, archived)
yes,
it is most entertaining, and very well done. Especially in the little details. There's this bit near the end where Kirk is just standing there, and he's got Shatner's posture exactly right. He must have practised it for ages.
(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:36, archived)
He was excellent at being Kirk.
Zachary Quinto was excellent aswell. And hot.
(I helped save b3ta! Esme Weatherwax I swear on my tash it's daycent hash, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:38, archived)
Also
Karl Urban was AWESOME as Bones.
(I helped save b3ta! Blue Star was working part time at the 5 and Dime, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:40, archived)
Yes,
as soon as he made his entrance and uttered his first line, it was obvious who he was.
I thought Simon Pegg was the weakest one. His acting was fine, but he just didn't look right. The original Scotty was very masculine looking, whereas Pegg is a weak-chinned nerd boy.
(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:44, archived)
Good point.
He was a hell of a lot better at the accent than the original one, though.
(I helped save b3ta! Esme Weatherwax I swear on my tash it's daycent hash, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:49, archived)
I don't remember the original one clear enough to say,
but he was Canadian. Pegg is very good at accents.
(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:50, archived)
Yes, he is.
The original was fucking shocking, really bad.
(I helped save b3ta! Esme Weatherwax I swear on my tash it's daycent hash, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:50, archived)
Oh well,
he'd been mixing with foreigners in Starfleet for a long time by then.
(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:52, archived)
It was almost convincing if you'd never heard a real Scottish person,
and didn't notice that the accent jumped at random between Edinburgh, Dublin and North America.

That said, I used to have a teacher whose accent switched between Texan and cockney every few words, so it was not totally implausible.

I once went to a lecture by a guy from Bradford
who'd been lecturing in the States for most of his professional career. That was kind of weird and confusing.
(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 21:02, archived)
Oh yes, he really was excellent.
Also, Uhura was HOT. Did her and Spock get it on in the original series? Also, how fucking ancient is Leonard Nimoy, he looks about 100.
(I helped save b3ta! Esme Weatherwax I swear on my tash it's daycent hash, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:50, archived)
Kirk and Uhura was the first inter-racial kiss on television.
It got complaints.
(I helped save b3ta! Moon Girl Technologies horrendous beanbag, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:50, archived)
I knew they did, but I didn't know she got it on with Spock.
Spock is a lot hotter than Kirk.
(I helped save b3ta! Esme Weatherwax I swear on my tash it's daycent hash, Wed 3 Jun 2009, 20:55, archived)
this film is an alternative timeline to the original series,
so anything could have happened in it, really.

"At one point during negotiations, the idea was brought up of having Spock kiss Uhura instead, but William Shatner insisted that they stick with the original script"

Star Trek in the cinema, it was fucking ace.

Can't remember the last film I saw,
but I did see "The Time Element", the original pilot of The Twilight Zone, and was impressed. A very engaging, thought-provoking bit of telly, despite its datedness and huge glaring plot hole.
