So we're gonna talk about the best "movies" in 2007. My personal favorite has to be I am legend. That movie is fuckin awsome. Disagree or agree?
Yes, this topic will be made every year :D
-
Die Hard 4, 300 or Pirates 3 probably.
-
The only real movies I saw this year were The Simpsons Movie and 3:10 to Yuma.
-
I really need to see Legend. A lot of people said they cried from watching it, which is weird because it's a zombie flick.
I don't know if it came out in theatres this year, but Black Snake Moan was awesome. If you haven't heard of it, chains up a white girl because she's addicted to sex. XD!! Everything about that movie was perfect.
-
I was about to cry in the movie it was just deep. It was more about him being isolated from other ppl for years. It was great tho.

How was pirates 3 bad? I thought it was the best one. That pirates song was awsome.. <<
-
I finally saw Pirates 3. It was awful... Way too much talking for what's supposed to be a Disney Blockbuster. It makes you wonder where their budget went.
-
Too much talking? What, do you not like a story or something? That's pretty damn bad.
-
Just saying, if I wanted to watch a movie for its story, I would want to watch a pure drama. For a movie like this, I would much rather watch it for the visuals. With that said, the story wasn't that great either. What made the first one so good was that it was condensed and consistent. This one just had too many people, and tried way too hard to be this epic movie.
-
Well you know nowadays it's hard for people to sit still and listen to ppl talk for long periods of time when they got ADD and all :p
-
I didnt say it was bad, it just wasn't what I expected off the last installment.
i expected a more interesting ending, since the whole movie got kinda crazy and weird at the beginning, I thought it might've have something good to offer at the end. And so where the other too, but I enjoyed the others more than I did this, tis all.
And like aboutasoandthis said, i felt the epicness being shoved a little. Like Spiderman 3 and the golden compass. It was like "HERE EPIC! LIKE?!" Xept spideran 3 had story and character problems.
BUT, i still watched it. Even saw the blooper reel :D
-
300, I am Legend, 30 Days of Night, Fred Claus didn't suck TOO bad, and Superbad. Pirates 3 was decidedly meh, Will Turner was a moron.
-
I like game plan, it's pretty awsome. Hitman wasn't that great aside from the fighting.
-
Hot Fuzz, 300 and that other movie I really liked.
What the hell was it?
-
I didnt see hitman. But I've heard too many mixed feelings about it. I dont know it didnt call to my attention, I didnt even know who played the lead role, and was never interested in looking it up. At first i thought it was vin diesel, and i was like "YEAH!" but then it wasn't and i went meh.
How could i forget hot fuzz! That movie was wicked.
-
Yeah, Hot Fuzz was cool... I never bothered with Hitman, video game movies tend to suck hardcore.
-
It was like... the actor looked consitpated all the time. So throughout the entire film we were making fun of him cause his acting was dry. Honestly the only good parts of the film were the fight scenes like when he stepped on some dude's head or stabbed some guy through the *** with a sword. That was about it.
I still haven't seen hot fuzz..
Transformers is awsome too. Golden compass was alright.. it might've been the animals and nicole kidmen that made the movie for me. Those kids' teeth hurt my eyes.. << Spiderman 3 was horrible and so was superman. Shrek was disappointing. p2 was corny.
I wanna see beowulf.. and sweeny todd... <<
-
It was like... the actor looked consitpated all the time.
lol...
And they still making shrek 4 and 2 more compass movies
-
I'm so serious :p
Really? I thought they were only doing that if the golden compass did good in the box office..
And more shrek movies is overkill...
Speaking of overkill I liked saw 4. I know it's all "but why? it's the same crap recycled with a few extra traps in it!" but i enjoy the gory plots and stuff. It was interesting.
One of the worst movies of the year was Halloween... Aside from michael being the shyte outta that boy with a branch.. it was horrible.
-
Saw 4 is more of the movie I'll wait for on dvd. You know hopw it all ends anyway. They all die and you kept guessing til the end just to know you were so off.
Worst was the last mimzy for me. BIGGEST PIECE OF FECES EVER! Futurisic psychic bunnies that float, what? sabes que, would've been better if it was a floating turd. it would've been more interesting.
Anyway i know it's 2007 stuff, but here's movies some people may look toward the future!
1) Dark Knight
2) Kung Fu Panda
3) The Forbidden Kingdom
4) Iron Man
5) Indiana Jones KotCS
6) James Bond 22
7)Speed Racer
8) the Incredible Hulk
9) The Ruins
10) Rambo
11) The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
12) HellBoy 2
13) the Next harry Potter XS
14) The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
15) Babylon A.D.
16)Wall-E
17) Valkyrie
And that's all the movies that I know of that have either, caught my attention or made me want to look a ittle bit more into it.
-
um from that list the only movies i wanna see are iron man, the mummy, hellboy, and narnia. the rest i dun know about or care for *incredible hulk UGH*
-
There is supposed to be a three part Avatar: The Last Airbender series directed by M. Night Shyamalan.
I'm praying that it will be great. I really love that show...
-
i dont know what they're thinking with these remakes :D
the only movies that i want to see from there are kung fu panda, forbidden kingdom (both jackie chan movies asdgasdg, well almost both), narnia, the mummy, narnia, iron man, babylon and Wall-E (seems to be pixar's next big hit)
I am not sure what will smith's next movies set for 2008 will really be about, there isnt much on them xept plotlines , but i end up seeing whatever he does anyway.
EDIT:
I read rumors about that, supposedly for 2009. But as far as I know the story only needs two more books. Dont know how a movie (however might be made) might be applied. I however wouldnt mind seeing. Avatar is far the best american-anime-wannabe show, uptodate.
-
I might get screamed at for saying this, but I personally think that Harry Potter 5 was pretty well done...
But anyway, for working at the movies, I haven't seen a whole lot. This year, I believe I only saw Shrek 3, Harry Potter 5, The Simpsons, the last third of The Mist, and Fred Claus. Oh, yeah and Mr. Woodcock... yeah...
Oh and parts of Sicko and the end of a bunch of movies, including Hair Spray, American Gangster and Gone Baby Gone.
So overall, I'm not too up there in terms of seeing the most popular movies.
-
You know why HP5 was great?
Because it was confirmed that Dumbledore is actually a member of the Village Hidden the Mist. I mean, when he used Water Prison Jutsu on Voldemort it was confirmed.
-
Hot Fuzz, I guess. I haven't really liked very many films this year. Golden compass was, typically, too short. Any film based on a big book should be three hours long. No exceptions.
-
Oooo I love avatar. I havent been watching it the last couple of weeks tho, too tired.
Hairspray! Omg I forgot about that one. I love that movie the songs were so god damn catchy.. <<
And I dunno.. the harry potter movies are just so disappointing... :S
-
The new Avatar movies sound like a good idea. Shyamalan asked if he could do it after watching the whole first season with his daughter, and has since watched most of the other episodes. The wiki also says that he will work closely with the original writers in order to keep it consistent. If they do it right, it could be a Disney killer.
I thought Harry Potter was nicely done too. I hated the book, but I think this one was the best movie so far.
Did anyone else see Reign Over Me with Adam Sandler?
-
Suprisingly no, considering I am an adam sandler fan
-
I Am Legend was great. My only complaint is that I wish it ended in a less cliche way. The book is a bajillion times better though. Which is the most case for all books turned to movies. Still woved it though. :D
-
Yeah... I wanna read the book :D
-
If you read the book, don't get too hook on it to compare it to the movie in all extent. There's a lot of intense criticism about the movie on the book because of some important differences, and people forget to see some movies as an adaption, then end up being frustrated and disappointed. Though you're pulling a reverse here so i don't know.
As far as I know, both are great in their respective manners.
-
There's no such thing as a Will Smith, he's just a legend!

I saw I am Legend this weekend. I could not believe how good it was. I can see people crying when
*SPOILER*
Sam dies, or Neville surrenders his life for the future, or his family is killed.
*SPOILER*
For me, 300, Legend, Superbad, Transformers... and ummmm... ****, I don't even remember what else has come out this year.
American Gangster was the worst (to me)

Leave. Now
Batman???
Dark Knight = Best batman ever. I want to see that more than anything ever.
Basically, I want to see that, and Indy, and that's it. Everything else there sucks.
1) Dark Knight
OK, going to be amazing.
2) Kung Fu Panda
No idea what it is. Sounds like a stupid *** disney movie. No thanks
3) The Forbidden Kingdom
Sounds... interesting, maybe. MAYBE.
4) Iron Man
Yay.. a movie about the 2nd worst 'hero' ever. What's next? AQUAMAN?
5) Indiana Jones KotCS
This I look forward to.
6) James Bond 22
Another one? Maybe if they get a decent bond I'll watch it. No more blonde douche from Casino Royal.
7)Speed Racer
No idea what that is.
8) the Incredible Hulk
They're... making a sequel? WHAT?
9) The Ruins
No idea
10) Rambo
Please god... no
11) The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
ANOTHER MUMMY? O COME ON!
12) HellBoy 2
Nope
13) the Next harry Potter XS
Maybe, probably will see it with my family.
14) The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
Maybe, the first was good, but like the books, Lion Witch Wardrobe, good, rest? Dull...
15) Babylon A.D.
Isn't that that Star Wars rip off? No thanks. I want Vader, not Bader the cyborg man.
16)Wall-E
What is this?
17) Valkyrie
Hmm, ok, that sounds somewhat interesting. May look into this.
-
2007 was a dull movie year, in my opinion.
I Am Legend... was not quite as good as I had expected. I fail to see what there is to cry about, I didn't find it very sad at all although I do hate when... Things of the same kind as the thing that was killed/destroyed halfway through the movie are killed or destroyed depending on wether the thing is living or not. Hah, I said it without spoiling! Or maybe I did spoil. It's not very important anyway... But I hate when that happens, even if it does not make me cry. I just like things of the same kind as that thing.
...No one understood a word, right?
Pirates 3 was a disappointment. Not nearly as good as the first two movies.
Next was really awesome, until the ending, which sucked.
I'll have to say that 300 was the best movie of the year.
-
Um no loser. I wasn't a fan of the last batman movie. I dunno, it was boring... and I didn't know dark knight was the second part.
And yes.. it was sad with what happened to sam.. and the family... and ya know..

No idea what that is.
How can you not know what Speed Racer is? It was an old anime about a dude named Speed Racer who... um... raced.... :dry:
Anyway, it was a classic, like Voltron or Transformers. Everyone knows Speed Racer!
Also: Whatever happened to the worst-titled movie of '07, The Number 23?
-
Oh wait, Bender's Big Score was awesomely awesome too. Possibly the best movie of 2007.

4) Iron Man
Yay, a movie about one of the most awesome super heroes, that will feature a super powered mechanical suit flying and shooting down fighter planes. Yes.
5) Indiana Jones KotCS
Shia LeBouf FTL
6) James Bond 22
Daniel Craig has the perfect attitude for James Bond, and anyone that went into it with an open mind would realize that even though he doesn't have black hair, he has the personality similar to that of Connery, just only less womanizing. Protip: Roger Moore didn't have black hair either and he was good.
7)Speed Racer
GO SPEED RACER, GO SPEED RACER, GO SPEED RACER GOOOOOO. Matthew Fox, John Goodman, and Christina Richi. Yes.
8) the Incredible Hulk
First sucked, why make a second?
9) The Ruins
Que?
10) Rambo
Almost as bad as Rocky Balboa
11) The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
Jet Li as an ancient chinese emperor, with a terra cotta army. Very yes.
12) HellBoy 2
With a story written by Mike Mignola AND Guillermo Del Toro, starring Ron Pearlman, and having ALL the original actors, yes.
13) the Next harry Potter XS
You'll see Harry Potter but not Hellboy? Really?
14) The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
The whole series was dull once you grew up past 10.
15) Babylon A.D.
If thats based on Babylon 5 at all, I might shoot myself
16)Wall-E
New Pixar movie featuring an adorable robot. Yes.
17) Valkyrie
A World War II movie starring nut job Tom Cruise? No thanks.
-
Kung Fu Panda has Jack Black, Angelina Jolie, Lucy Liu and Jackie chan in it. And it's dreamworks <<
Wall-E is the disney movie http://dfectuoso.files.wordpress.com/2007/10/wall_e.jpg he looks like a huggable Johnny 5~
The Forbidden Kingdom is a jackie Chan and Jet Li movie

I like how they're portraying the Joker. Not as cool as Jack's Masterpiece, but he does look like a serial killer.
-
He looks like he had a massive . in his mouth... How gross...

Bah, nothing beats the Joker from the WB batman cartoon.
-
True that.. although I do love the joker from the old batman cartoon..
-
Isnt that the same joker? Or are you talking WAY BACK
-
I think she means the good ol' Mark Hammill Joker from the 90's toon.
-
Ah, then we're on the same page.
-
That show was the ****.
-
yeah i'm talking about the old one, but you said wb so i thought you meant the joker with the dreadlocks XD
-
Wasnt the 90's one on WB too? The NEW one on WB was "The Batman".
-
i remember watching it on cartoon network.. <<
-
"The Batman" plays on Boomerang if you have it. I don't really like that show, compared to the old one.
-
Best movies? Hmm...300...I am Legend needs kudos (just saw it today--good stuff)...aaaand....Paprika. That last one was great. ^_^
-
I can't believe nobody mentioned Knocked Up!
That movie was great. I saw it with a really pretty girl...
man goooood times...
-
I'm gonna say Sweeney Todd, Golden Compass (could have been better, but loved it anyway), Pirates 3, Transformers, and probably a bunch of others I just can't think of now :)

I LOVE KNOCKED UP TO DEATH!!!!!!!!!
Surprisingly my mom didn't like it. It was a little too disgusting for her. She like the romance but she hated the nerdy guys.

You cant stop an avalanche
As it races down the hill
You can try to stop the seasons, girl
But ya know you never will
And you can try to stop my dancin' feet
But i just cannot stand still
Cause the world keeps spinnin'
Round and round
And my heart's keeping time
To the speed of sound
I was lost til i heard the drums
Then i found my way
Cause you can't stop the beat
Ever since this old world began
A woman found out if she shook it
She could shake up a man
And so i'm gonna shake and shimmy it
The best that i can today
'Cause you cant stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the sun in the sky
You can wonder if you wanna
But i never ask why
And if you try to hold me down
I'm gonna spit in your eye and say
That you cant stop the beat!
...

Hey, working at a movie theatre, I heard that song a million times!
-
Oh, yeah, Sweeney Todd. Just saw it yesterday, it owned. I haven't seen Golden Compass and I'm halfway through the book, and that's cool too.

I forgot this existed.
http://www.gametrailers.com/player/29307.html
CGi movie
-
sweeny todd was pretty sweet.
The new AvP was.....Horrible
SPOILER
the whole twist the put on in the very end, to try and foreshadow other movies released under the alien franchise was lame. it had about a 400 year plot hole that a guy could pilot the death star through
And the govt nuking the town was cool, until strangely all of the idiot stick colorado kids lived, and somehow the insectous beasts all dies.
It was gay and disappointing the Hybrid monster was pure faggotry
END SPOILER
Knocked up was shitty
OH DID I MENTION HOW NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN WAS TEH BALLSIEST THING IVE EVER SEEN? AND HOW IT WAS PURE SWEET?

Once I was a selfish fool/
Who never understood/
Never looked inside myself/
But on the outside, I looked good!
I love Hairspray <3
Although, I think Tracy's prison scene would've been amazing if done correctly on screen u_u
