^how was Cracks? I wanted to watch it but I'm not sure about it, I like Eva Green and Womb was so unique as message, many of her films are.

[Tinetush]

16. Playtime (France, 1967).
17. J. Edgar (2011)
18. Much Ado About Nothing (1993). I've never been a big fan of Shakespeare, but this one I really liked.
19. Sense and Sensibility (1995).
20. The Iron Lady (2011). Disappointed in this one, both in the movie itself as well as in Meryl Streep's performance.
21. Howards End (1992). I thought the acting was splendid!
22. The Remains of the Day (1993).

23. The Ambassador (Doc, Denmark, 2011).
24. Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close (2011). Did not like it at all. It was as though it tried to make me feel a certain way by it's use of music.
25. Capote (2005).
26. Stranger than fiction (2006). I actually enjoyed Will Ferrell in this one, there's a first for everything.
27. Impromptu (1991). Annoyed by the main characters, enjoyed the supporting ones.

 

[Legyviel]

^how was My Week with Marilyn?

Oops, sorry for a late reply! For me, it was only okay. Cinematography was beautiful, Michelle Williams was soo gorgeous and did a great job. Plot was lacking something, I don't know, I guess if they stayed true to the book that the film was based on, then it's okay. I kind of got bored in the middle. I just probably expected something more.

18. salmon fishing in the yemen (silly but kind of sweet in moments..)

*Watched in my film class

I just got done watching Temple Grandin and what a tour de force it is! Claire Danes' portrayal of Temple was amazing, she literally moved me to tears several times just from her acting alone. And Temple's story is so awe inspiring and eye-opening. Honestly, it's one of the best films I've seen in a long time.

Highly recommended guys..

[Niusity]

MulletProof, how was Exteriors ?

I made it up to 99 last week, I just don't have time to watch smth at all. Hope we'll watch a movie on my german lesson tomorrow.

 

[modelista]

081. Cabin in the Woods (2012) - saw this last weekend & this movie mother-fking ROCKED!!!! Did NOT know Joss Whedon wrote/directed this until the opening credits. I frigging loooove him & I loooved this movie (as if u guys couldn't tell from all the emoticons ).. It was just soo cool & funny & has so many twists that it totally lives up to the hype. I highly recommend seeing itB)

082. Protektor (2009 -foreign/czech) - beautiful movie.. Beautiful, yet tragic
083. The Architect (2006)
084. Rachel Getting Married (2009)
085. Black Swan (2010)
086. Remember Me (2010) - Robert's acting here is much better here, not great but good.. It was a decent script, solid story but I felt the ending was lazy, if you know what I mean.. Like they couldn't figure out how to end it so they just picked a random plot twist

I'm glad to see that other people are slowing down, I've only watched 3 movies in the past two weeks.

 

[kokobombon]

^^About Remember Me: I read the original script and the ending made more sense as a plot twist. His brother died at the Twin Towers attack so you immediately think 9-11 but as the end approaches you realize he died at the ´93 bombing. I don´t why they´ve changed the death to suicide...

 

[Niusity]

^really, I think that'd make sense. I liked the movie but the original script sounds better.

[blueorchid]

What I've seen in the last few weeks:

120. Confessions of a Superhero (2007)
121. W.E. (2011)
122. Being John Malkovich (1999)
123. Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (2006)
124. Hard-Boiled (1992)

Confessions of a Superhero had to have been one of the most pathetic documentaries I have ever seen. It's about the people who dress up as characters in Los Angeles and pose for pictures with tourists. If you want to feel better about your life I strongly recommend it.

W.E was just terrible, but Hard-Boiled and Being John Malkovich were great.

Also, I just discovered this new website to keep track of the movies you've seen called Letterboxd. It's less competitive and more fun looking than iCheckMovies. There's a "diary" feature where you keep track of what you've seen each day and rate it/review it.
