Wahlberg as Max Payne? LOL.sounds like a car crash waiting to happen.there was another Max Payne film in the making a while back and there was a trailer released for it mid-production.not my kind of thing but it looked pretty promising.kinda like Sin City if Cronenberg had directed.i haven't heard anything since though so it may have been cancelled.

watched a few films this past week...

The Constant Gardener.it was very good.great performances,beautifully shot and a very intelligent script (though the credit for that goes to the book).i was expecting it to cop out at the end but luckily it didnt.

The Simpsons Movie.had a few laughs but it was pretty bad overall

Once.lovely little Irish film thats just come out about a struggling musician who is recovering from a break-up who happens to meet a girl who has similar problems and they develop an odd sort of friendship and it goes from there.most of the narration is then told through song.a nice little twist on the genre.a musical thats bearable to watch.who knew?

also rewatched After The Wedding and its still the best film ive seen all year.brilliant.

The Departed is an excellent movie and I love Walbergs foul mouthed character. Just watched Mr. Brooks the other night and thought it was excellent. I'm not a Costner fan by a longshot, but I really liked him as a serial killer.

I just saw "The Bourne Ultimatum." It was great and packed with non-stop action down to the wire.

Not really my kind of movie but I have heard its supposed to be good. The next big one I want to see is "I Am Legend" with Will Smith that looks as if it could be a good one!

American Gangster was excellent, Denzel delivered as did Crowe...as ruthless as Frank Lucas was in real life I expected the movie to be a little more "in your face", but it was still good without all the extra blood and guts.

just saw Superbad.Excellent film.Hysterical and brutally honest to the point where it almost becomes uncomfortable to watch in parts.The best teen film in a long time

Ive also been making my way through Wes Andersons flicks thanks to Bill Murray who I'm a huge fan of especially now that he's really come into his own as a serious actor.Rushmore,The Royal Tenenbaums and Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou were all brilliant.Can't wait for the new one,The Darjeeling Limited

These rules exist to make viewing the forum as pleasant as possible to all users. Even though you might think signatures with large pictures look cool, some might find them extremely annoying.

1. Text-only signatures should have at most 5 lines of text.

2. An image-only signature should be less than 50kb in size, and be at most 500 pixels wide and 200 pixels tall.

3. If you use an animated picture in the signature, it should not be too distractive. Eg. blinking images or images with quick movement are not allowed.

4. If you want to use both text and image in your signature the image should not be more than 500 pixels wide and 100 pixels tall, and you can use up to three lines of text.

5. All the abovementioned rules for forum posts apply also to the signatures.

Violation of these rules does not lead to an immediate ban. However if requested user must edit his or her signature to fit these guidelines.
Superbad was excellent....throwback to the Porky's days.

Ahh forget it.I give up.I had a few uploaded to imageshack,some bigger than others (both filesize and width/length wise) and ive got them mixed up as to which is which.Sorry about that

Believe it or not i actually haven't seen any of the Porky's films.Shocking i know

Went to see the new Ian Curtis (lead singer of Joy Division) biopic Control today.It was very good.Sam Riley gave a good performance as Curtis.Samantha Morton,who plays his wife,almost stole the film from him though.She was fantastic.I was mesmerised by her.It managed to have some nice camerawork and black and white cinematography without being too arty thus affecting it's accessibility (ala Gus Van Sants Kurt Cobain biopic Last Days which is a VERY divisive film that usually renders a reaction of either "an absolutely beautiful and poetic portrayal" or "slow boring pointless crap")

Haven't seen "I Am Legend" yet...but is anyone a fan of the "Saw" movies...I watched part 1,2,and 3 the other day. I saw part 4 in the theaters when it came out...it was so so. I think they tried to make it TOO much of a puzzle. but anyways my favorite one was part 1 and 3. 2 wasn't that good.

Yeah I saw I am legend. It's ok. Another remake. At least it wasn't changed to much. I still liked the first remake better, The Omega Man.

I have a question about "I am Legend" what was that liquid that he was spraying onto his steps and jacket and what does it do? and how did "FRED" get to that location and set a trap? was it the "Dark Stalkers or wlakers" that set the trap?
