Re: What's ur favo movie ever ?

Yesterday I saw The Cronicles of Narnia, and honestly it's just a good movie. Not more than that... Lord of the Rings is much better in my point of view.
I don't think Forrest Gump is a real good movie, at least for me, and if you think that's because ''we'' love only action movies, you should check I said at the beginning of this thread which movies I like, and I don't think American Beauty or K-PAX are action movies...

Thumbs up Re: What's ur favo movie ever ?

I actually wrote a review about the film Chronicles of Narnia for my school "newspaper". i wonder if you'll like it:

In the Second World-War many send thousands of British children to the farminglands, because the cities were interrupted by German bombardements. Because of this way, Lucy, Edmund, Susan and Peter Pevensie end up in the mansion of one professor Kirke. When Lucy is hiding in a wardrobe, she suddenly enters the magical world of Narnia. There she meets mister Tumnus, a friendly Faun, that tells her that his nation is going down under the tiranny of the White Witch. But apparently things will soon change, because an ancient prophecy tells the tale of 4 children, who with the assistance of the wise lion Aslan will put an end to the eternal winter, which has covered all lands of Narnia.
Now that Harry Potter has reached puberty, and Peter Jackson has left his Hobbits, the Disney-studio's have put all of their money (or some sleazy 180 million dollars) on this filmversion on one of the popular Narnia-books of youthwriter C.S. Lewis.
It was to be expected that the director Andrew Adamson (Shrek) would especially commit wonders on the visual aspects, with this rich fantasy-novel. The aesthetics seem to look somewhat strange, and the background-projections aren't always as succesfull, but the magical creatures look very real, by a mix of real actors and special effects.
But to mention, the entire atmosphere of the movie wouldn't really remind the audience to Lord of the Rings (even if C.S. Lewis was a good friend and colleague of J.R.R. Tolkien). It would rather link to more mysterious and more children-focused movies, like the Neverending Story, or Labyrint and such. But the difference is yet again the computereffects, such as used with Aslan (voice of Liam Neeson), but it never reaches the realistic level of the recent King Kong, altough it certainly beats Harry Potter in magic level (does anybody remember the lame-looking dragons? exactly).
The human actors are also doing a good job. Of the four children, the young Georgie Henley as the cute Lucy excells when she can't believe her eyes she's landed in a place like Narnia. Tilda Swinton takes care of the-probably unmeaned- sexual tension as the White Witch.
So in conclusion, forget Harry Potter, hang on during the slow first half of the movie, and ignore the Christian allegories. Just enjoy this better fantasy movie.

Outta 5..... i'lld give the Chronicles of Narnia 4 stars.

(these guys are also pretty keen about the Chronicles)

Re: What's ur favo movie ever ?

Well, yeah, star wars is like legendaric , well, for me it is. I was like 9, 10 years old i first saw A New Hope on video. And by now: i've seen the first trilogy so many times, i've lost count.
(altough with Lord of the Rings i can keep the count, well.... let's just say i've seen Star Wars a lot!!)

Other movies i've seen so many times, that i forget how many times:

Reservoir Dogs
Ichi the Killer
(these are the films where i know entire scenes and dialogues from top to bottom)
Ghost in the Shell
Akira
A Night at the Opera (Marx Brothers)
Pulp Fiction
The Boondock Saints
Natural Born Killers
......

Boondock Saints was awesome! I LIKED LOTR, but didn't think they were spectacular. I would like to read the books. I really loved the Matrix Trilogy.

Re: What's ur favo movie ever ?

Trust me, reasoniamalive: the books are hard to read..... but they're SO MUCH BETTER than the movies.

And, yeah, Boondock Saints is one of the best films i've ever seen!

The Matrix.....yeah, it's cool and all, but..... i totally didn't like the third part of the trilogy. I hated the end :mad:
What i do like, linking to the Matrix, is the Animatrix! First they gave it one tv, but now i've got the dvd. : a serie of animations (all manga) by some great artists.

Re: What's ur favo movie ever ?

Also one of the best comedies ever: Office Space. ^__^

And for those that like Tarantino's style, they should go and check out these two:

- Man Bites Dog (the big inspiration for Tarantino )
- My Best Friend's Birthday (his unofficial first film ^^)
