Re: What MOVIES have you been watching? (v2.0)

Went on a Netflix binge over the weekend, mostly HK and Korean movies.

Accident a hit man and his crew set up assassinations to look like freak accidents. Only during one of their hits, one of his crew is killed in a similarly themed freak accident and he tries to find out who set up the hit. I figured it out relatively quickly what was happening, but still enjoyed it.

Blood Rain A Korean murder mystery. Well done, but left some questions unanswered. Loved it.

Flaming Brothers Oh good God, want to be reminded how bad 80's fashion was and to see Chow Yun Fat made up like Sheena Easton? Then watch this movie and be ready for eye twitching bad acting, horrible gun fights, and to giggle at the double entendre name. I watched all up until the last fifteen minutes. I knew it was going to end badly, so I stopped watching it.

And between playing Dungeon of D, I re-watched the entire first two seasons of Archer. Fuck, I love that show. My wife is sometimes horrified by parts of it, but she laughs nonetheless, so she's going to Hell with me.

Heathers: Still funny but didn't age well.
From Beyond: As much as I love Lovecraft, this wasn't it. I wish someone would do something for the man's work....we need a great Lovecraft film.
The Big Lebowski: Great film. Better the second time, in fact.

I watched an early Christian Bale film, Harsh Times. It's basically about 2 idiots who spend their time smoking weed and driving drunk, going from one bad decision to the next. It only held my interest because I wanted to see how it all went inevitably bad for them. Not a terrible movie, but not overly worth your time either.

Gah! Curse you for reminding me of that movie! Gawd I hated that thing (I have a high tolerance for most things, but this is one of the few films I couldn't sit through).

Conan the Barbarian (2011) - It was slightly better than Christian Peterson Midnight crap movie.
I also went back and saw the Original Conan the Barbarian with Arnold - Still fraking great after all these years


I just took the Conan challenge myself while I painted some african explorers. Started with the new one...damn this film is worse the second time. I love the riveting dialog in the climatic battle sequence: "Barbarian! I tire of you!" and "Die!". Ugh. I couldn't even finish the move and I came so far... No way does this compare with the fight amongst the ruins in the 82 film. Hell, it's less dramatic then conan v doom at the temple.

I didn't follow that pile up with the 82 movie. I went with Destroyer. The first two minutes where Mako narrates and all you see is a shot of some desert mountain is better than the entire Mamoa film.

(hack job on the close caption though: 'Samarian', 'Krom')

With arnold out of office now, is there any chance we get that king conan movie?

He's really out of shape nowadays, I doubt it unless he starts pumping iron again. Then again it could happen, but he'd need to work out really hard at 65 to regain some muscle weight.

I'd be cool if he wore a top the whole film.



yeah, it'd have to be a tale of conan at a much advanced age though.

I watched Battleship today, believe it or not. And, it didn't suck! It wasn't great by any stretch, but I don't feel cheated out of those two hours of my time.

I'd recommend checking it out, so long as you can watch at home ;)

Just watched the new Total Recall. A totally different movie than the 1990 one. Strangely I want Arnold in this one. Extremely Cyberpunk-ish. Enjoying the tech porn. 3.5/5.
