Let's have a films thread.

[Libertine]

The Burton Batman's seem a bit less serious than the Nolan one's......though its been a long time since i've seen a Burton one.

I just imagine Bale as Batman now though - I wouldn't want it any other way.

Yeh they are I guess. It was 1989 (and 1992) though I suppose. A lot darker than the original movies.

We won't mention the Joel Schumacher ones..

I've not seen any, and from what i've read, i'm a lucky boy.

I'll say it again. Changeling. Fantastic film. Watch it.

The film of the year is out

Don't forget it.

Riiiight:

Death Note: Funky (apart from dodgy CG God of Death charadter), Japanese supernatural thriller! Should see!

I got a bit bored of Deathnote.

It's one of the few Manga books I've actually tried to read. My friend Yoshito was really enthusiastic about my reading it but I wasn't so impressed, really, the story was a bit repetitive.

I also think that Tatsuya Fujiwara was by and away the worst thing about Battle Royale, so overall I can't say I'm too eager to watch this.

Edit: That said, Erika Toda is a complete fox.

Watch it... watch it I say!!! It's just different. Not a Jap-Horror at all... Like nothing I can compare it to!?

Never read the Manga though... but might give it a go now!

Cashback.

I know what it is. I've read it and seen the anime.

I just the story's a little bit tripe, is all. I probably will get around to watching it at some point. I'm just busy rocking post-apocalyptic / cyberpunk right now.

I'm all about:

It's kind of Akira-lite.

Seen it... but can't remember much... maybe an annoying ending... didn't leave a great impression!

[Finnegan]

It's not that amazing, it's just next on my list. I've done Akira and Sky Blue lately and if I watch that I won't have to watch Casshern.

You should watch "Fist of the North Star" the film... tis' pure OTT quality!!

[BoneDog]

Just about to watch 'The Burrowers'. Anyone seen it?

[Finnegan]

Fist of the North Star is crap. You'll be recommending Legend of the Demon Womb next.

I'm not after any old corny old anime, I'm whoring up on post-apocalyptica / dystopian cinema and the best of it happens to be Japanese (they're freakin' paranoid.)

Better than all of that Blade Runner rubbish.

We scarily agree!! I hate Blade Runner too!! Spooky!!

And you can't get more post-apocalyptic the FOTNS... It's Mad Max on steroids!!

And do you mean Urotsukidoji - Legend of the Overfiend!!!

My 2nd or 3rd Anime!!

[MC Prussian]

Excuse me, but nothing beats NGE.

[Finnegan]

Legend of the Demon Womb is the sequel.

[General Smuts]

Wolverine tonight.

Bolt last night - not bad. Very enjoyable viewing.

[Tilley]

17 Again.

[BoneDog]

The Burrowers is well worth a bash. My Mrs watches ALL films that come out and I only take notice of a few of them. This one I thought was alright.

EDIT : OK maybe not ALL but alot

I see Eric Cantona has made two films.

Doubt whether either of them are likely to reach Leicester, though..

[MC Prussian]

Finally got round watching "Death Man's Shoes" yesterday. Cracking movie, and especially the rather surprising twist at the end makes it all even more worthwile and has one re-evaluate what the majority of the film was all about.
