Perpetual Movie Thread/What was the last movie you watched?

Finally got around to watching some movies I missed in theaters this weekend.

Adventureland - Awesome, total John Hughes worship in a very good way. Touching, and at times truly funny.

I Love You, Man - I love Paul Rudd, but this movie was shit until Jason Segel showed up (which reminds me, I still have yet to see Forgetting Sarah Marshall...). Ended up being pretty great, funniest of the bunch.

Observe & Report - Meh. It was okay, but I guess dark comedys aren't really my bad. Although, Danny McBride and Patton Oswalt had some very appreciated cameos.

Punisher Warzone

Comments:

Everything a First/Third person shooter should be.

Writing = Meh...:|

observe and report. It was just above 'meh' level until the last 10 or 15 minutes and all my buddies and I were laughing our asses off.

Punisher WarZone was hilarious.

Just watched I Love You, Man. I thought it was quite good.

And VinnyT, there's another teeny tiny cameo by David Krumholz (aka "Bernard") in there for you. :D It's interesting that he was nearly leading-man material in the 90's but now you're lucky to get one line out of him.

Recently, I watched A Clockwork Orange for the second time. It's one of the best movies ever.

I also watched Streets Of Fire for some days ago, not that good but it's easy to see that Final Fight was based on that movie from the beginning.

ponyo by hayao miyazaki presented by disney saw this with my anime club and a bunch of kids-we all had a great time truly an excellent movie!

Whats Ponyo about anyway?

I'm hearing Little Mermaid comparisons, but that isn't deterring me a bit. I'm probably gonna go see it this weekend.

Thursday is this:

*Image turned into a clever "Don't steal our shit" image and It's gone now*

And I'm trying to fill a newer friend in on movies that hed love and never got too see, so it's been a week of Falling Down, LA Confidential, and today should be Momento.

WTF!? Dude that huge picture is so damn annoying and pointless.

Anyway, I've just seen Live Free or Die Hard yesterday. Great movie except how they ended up getting the bad guys in the end. Looks like they ran out of jawusum ideas.

I saw Mercury Rising. It's not as jawusum as Bruce Willis's Die Hard movies but it was a decent movie to watch. That huge pic is still annoying me. :roll:

It's based on the Hans Christian Anderson fairytale, not the Disney movie:)

I saw District 9 when on opening day. After it was over, I sat quietly, watching the credits, thinking it was the best movie I have ever seen (of any kind). It had borrowed elements from many sci fi movies, but it blended them so well, and had such good acting and some non-Hollywood conventions. Only time will tell if it will remain my favorite movie of all time (supplanting Blade Runner), as I'll need to give it repeat viewings, but it is undoubtedly in my top 5.

Saw a live showing of Rifftrax doing Plan 9 From Outer Space. It was fucking hilarious!

I've never seen Momento, but I did see Memento twice years ago (forwards and backwards).

Finally seen the 1961 Japanese, English subtitled mightiest monster in all creation! That's right, Mothra on DVD in upconverted 1080i.
