Re: General Movie Discussion Part II
Gosling wrote it too, I read.
And of course, Hendricks. HAWT.

I've noticed a lot more details the second time I viewed it than the first, but won't give too much away since it's hard to get into the plot of that movie without giving too much away.
For those that haven't seen it, check it out, it's very special.

Very good film, you hit the nail on the head about finding extra clues/details on the second viewing.
The director Marc Forster has done some good films, I'd especially recommend 'Stranger Than Fiction' if you haven't seen it. It stars Will Ferrell but it's a pretty serious role he plays. Basically his character starts hearing a voice narrating his life. It's fun with an interesting subtext.

Re: General Movie Discussion Part II
Haven't seen Stranger than Fiction, but i'll have a look into it.
Stay was a recommendation, and at that point I wasnt too familiar with Marc Forster's work outside of Monster's Ball.
Stay is just fantastic. Glad to see someone else on here singing it's praises.

Re: General Movie Discussion Part II
The Last Stand is possibly the worst movie of 2013. I'm calling it now.

Re: General Movie Discussion Part II
Probably not gonna bother with Last Stand. I'll take my Arnold movies from the 80s and 90s, thank you very much. Except Expendables 2, that was actually pretty good.

Re: General Movie Discussion Part II
The Last Stand doesn't appeal to me at all. I've never been the biggest Arnie fan, but always enjoyed his movies for what they are. But this just looks

Re: General Movie Discussion Part II
Arn's movies have mostly been awful with a few exceptions, and that's mostly because most of them were schwarzploitation meant to be nothing but vehicles to launch him and capitalize on his appeal as a personality. Terminator 1 and 2, Predator and Total Recall are his only films i'd call genuinely good. Some of his comedies were entertaining, but that's because of Arnold's personality more than anything.

Re: General Movie Discussion Part II
Has anyone seen 'Man On The Moon' starring Jim Carrey from 1999? It's a biographical film of comic Andy Kaufman.
I watched it for the second time last night and damn it is very, very good. Highly recommended.

Re: General Movie Discussion Part II
The movie with Sly and Ah-Nuld in the super prison that comes out later this year could be good mindless testosterone filled fun.
