Movie/film thread: resurrected

i like stumbling zombies better than running zombies, the 00s zombies kind of weren't zombies for me. i still hold the original dawn of the dead as the best zombie movie ever, the zombies were scary on a totally different level as empty shells walking about looking for food than they are if they can run after you....

Bought all 5 seasons of How I Met Your Mother to use in English corners.  But they don't have subtitles, and the English is a little too fast and slang-y for the workers at my place. 

Sherlock Holmes.   A very different take on him.  Good fun.

A movie called Exam.  It is about a group of people that have applied for a high profile job and are all called into a room for the final selection process.

An Irish movie called Holy Water.  Its a fun film to watch, also one of the stars is Linda Hamilton from Terminator (looking old).  About 4 Irish guys that live in a little village in Ireland and decide to steal a truck load of Viagra to sell in Amsterdam.

I've never seen Firefly, but Dollhouse was amazing. 

    Con, if you think Dollhouse was amazing, you will not believe Firefly. Why haven't you seen it? What the he'll is wrong with you?

I'll add my vote for Firefly and the follow-up 'Serenity'.  Made me a Joss Whedon convert.

Can't find Firefly online or in stores.  I've seen Serenity, and it was good, but without the context of the show, I didn't get as much out of it as I might have.

Con, if you aren't opposed to using torrents, you can find Firefly on kickasstorrents.com.

I have just watched quite a weird film called Mr Nobody.  I recommend it

I just finished watching all of Firefly last night (showing a friend some of the better things produced by American culture).  Can't wait to see her reaction to Serenity.

But why, oh tell us why? I see Jared Leto is still doing the occasional movie.

The synopsis sounds interesting but is this some manipulative tearjerker for chicks with handkerchiefs or an actual movie?

  Amazon lists a fitness dvd wth that title

Just finishing up season 2 of Chuck.  Great fun, though it's starting to slip.

On Tuesday, I finally got around to watching "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas".  

Excellent film.  About an 8-year old and his family. He meets and becomes friends with another 8-year old, who "works on a farm" and wears pajamas.





Creeped me out.  I highly recommend it.
