Re: Movies Thread
New show about the younger Da Vinci during his early days in the Florentine renaissance. A young genius rebelling against the society of the time when the church controlled thought and labelled free thinkers heretics. Its awesome.

OK. No point in going around it anymore, watching Lincoln tomorrow night.
Pacific Rim - 9/10
[youtube]?v=5guMumPFBag[/youtube]
Mix of Godzilla and Ironman. I Googled to check if there would be a sequel during the show...that's how much I enjoyed it. The CGI and special effects were out of this world. Story line wasn't too shabby and the whole concept of the giant humanoid machines commandeered by a bunch of humans as a last resort to defend against the gigantic alien invaders....
Pacific Rim reminded me of an anime I used to watch growing up called Zoids. Used to love that show. After watching Pacific Rim, clearly there is a potential for a movie adaptation of it seeing as the concepts are pretty much the same. That realization almost made a me shed a tear of joyful hope.

Re: Movies Thread
Yep! Gundam fits right in with Pacific Rim, or even Evangelion I suppose! I liked Zoids better though. I was obsessed with it, especially the Chaotic CenturyPerfect_Order wrote:Was justabout to say that, zoids was animal imitation of gundam wing but didn't come close to it.Based wrote:More like Gundam Wing thoughGeoSeven wrote:Pacific Rim reminded me of an anime I used to watch growing up called Zoids.

Re: Movies Thread
The Yellow Sea - 9/10
Brutal, great acting, no "happily ever after" Hollywood ending.
The Chaser - 8,5/10
Another South Korean masterpiece, excellent story.
On the other side of the scale...
Iron Man - 1/10
Terrible from A to Z, didn't bother finishing it
Avengers - 0.5/10
Typical Hollywood nonsense.

Re: Movies Thread
^^That right there is crappiest movie I have ever seen in a while. Corny is too kind a word to describe its humor. Utterly bland and ridiculous. No sense to it whatsoever.
I give it a gracious 1.5/10

Re: Movies Thread
Oblivion - 1/10
One of the worst science fiction I've watched
Star Trek Into Darkness - 1/10
The movie copies and tries to replicate the success of an old ST movie, but backfires
Fast & Furious 6 - 1/10
Couldn't finish watching. Terrible plot & storyline
P.S. Downloaded all.
