Latest Movie That You Watched!

Cold Mountain, for the eleventy billionth time. No one gives a bad (or even mediocre) performance in this movie, and it's absolutely beautiful to look at. Love the book, too

I was in a school play - 1066 And All That - with the late Anthony Minghella. He was The Common Man (the lead character) and I was the Duke Of Marlborough (one of 100-odd other minor characters). He would have known the tower in my avatar very well, it's in his home town.

Saw Gone Girl. Affleck was horrible. Best actor was she that played the cop. I got irritated about the same things in the book. But here i had Affleck to add to my irritations.

Poor Kurben.

I understand...his acting lacked luster in this film. But I didn't mind watching him.

thats another thing i never qiute got..... I can understand people swooning over Pitt, Clooney, DiCaprio or Depp but Affleck??? I guess i never gonna get that but i'm happy he fulfills some demands...... His acting certainly doesn't. Did you see Daredevil??

 

[danie]

Kurben Yes, I saw Daredevil a long time ago. Meh. But cmon. Look at him.

The dark hair, dark eyes, beard. Cmon.

Have you seen The Town? I think Affleck does a great job in it.

Havent actually seen The Town. Shied away from it just because of Affleck, i'm afraid. But you're saying it is good?? I give you Affleck, i'm sure i dont want him. Not my type.......

You coulda asked me, Kurben. I coulda saved you a couple of hours of your time....

Wow. I loved that movie. Although Affleck was not what I pictured when I read the book I thought he was excellent. I loved the way the film so echoed the book.

I'm not a fan of the Affleck. Most of his movies are 'phoned in'.

Didn't like the book either. It was a good premise but the characters, both the main ones, acted so stupid in the circumstances. A much better book with a similar Outlook is Carthage by Joyce Carol Oates

OK, OK. ..... I will pick up the Town. Cant say no to a dare, can I? Sigh.... Danie has lured me into Affleck land......

I thought he was good in Argo and The Town. I think he just doesn't have a very broad range.

The Town was a solid movie. Jeremy Renner does a great job also.

 

[Neil W]

I think Affleck is a very solid support player, but usually doesn't quite cut it as a lead. As for the billing and cooing over DiCaprio, Gosling, Depp, Pitt, Clooney etc., I feel that a corresponding groundswell of, er, support is merited for Jennifer Lawrence, ScarJo, Alexandra Daddario, Jessica Biel, Zoe Saldana, and multiple others. Fair's fair.

Ben Afleck will make a fine Batman. When it comes to the Dark Knight, you need only have two concerns--does the suit look cool, and will the director respect the material. As for Fleck's acting chops, check him at as 'Superman' George Reeves in HOLLYWOODLAND. Good flick.

I trust Zack Snyder. I think Superman/Batman looks killer. Definitely taking cues from Frank Miller's brilliant DARK KNIGHT RETURNS.

 

[Tery]

Caught the remake of The Wicker Man, the one with Nick Cage. Meh. I liked the original much better. The idea that Goddess worshipers sacrificed anything in a wicker man is ridiculous; it was Druids who did so. And even they didn't sacrifice a human... after a time. There is a difference, something the makers of this movie obviously didn't know (or care to). If the movie had just been about the island and their sect, with no stupid connection to a wicker man (either the object or the original film) it may have been okay. As it is.... no.

 

[Kurben]

Saw The Town because Danie dared me.... It was ok. Affleck was ok if not excellen Thought the movie was too long though. Seems he directed this one which is probably the reason he seemed more involved than usual. And was not fond of the ending.
