Official Awesome Movies Thread
« on: August 24, 2012, 11:50:43 PM »
OK, so I made another thread. This one's for posting ANY English speaking movie that you've seen at any point in the past and are willing to share.

I'll start with 3 awesome films I saw from last year....

Take Shelter (2011)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1675192/

Quote
Plagued by a series of apocalyptic visions, a young husband and father questions whether to shelter his family from a coming storm, or from himself.




Bernie (2011)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1704573/

Quote
In small-town Texas, the local mortician strikes up a friendship with a wealthy widow, though when he kills her, he goes to great lengths to create the illusion that she's alive.




50/50 (2011)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1306980/

Quote
Inspired by a true story, a comedy centered on a 27-year-old guy who learns of his cancer diagnosis, and his subsequent struggle to beat the disease.




ALL these films were amazing. It would be a disservice to have them pass you by.

Thanks for the reminder on Take Shelter, also I'll just point out Michael Shannon has the part of General Zod in Man Of Steel next year (shameless plug :D)

lol @ plug.

Take Shelter was real mad. The twist at the end was cool too.

The titular score from Requiem for a Dream remains one of my favourites to this day with its runaway hit Lux Aeterna.

Heard in many a movie trailer.

Yes I did. Not my kind of show tbh

Saw more of Marlon Wayans than I cared too.....what has been seen can never be unseen lol

Didn't too like Keith David in that "seedy" man role either.

Here is my contribution of three officially awesome movies:







All three are for the sci fi fans

although i didn't like Keith David's role and seeing all of Marlon Wayans, i still consider Requiem one of the best American cinema has to offer. everyone's tastes differs i guess. only saw District 9, which was bess. i would have quicker put Yamato in the "Gems" thread as this one's more for english speaking films.

Yeah, I know I was stretching it with that Yamato post, lol

As for Requiem, it was basically a "say no to drugs" movie.  Very predictable in that sense.

Now for a film of that genre that I'd rate.....look no further than Limitless.

That was a firm 9 little white pills out of 10 flick right there.

I dare say it deserves mention in this illustrious thread as an Officially Awesome Movie.

Very nice. Will give these a once over asap.

Got a lot of movies to catch up on now that Walking Dead and Game of Thrones are on Hiatus. Not to mention Spartacus being over.

I watched this movie more than 10 times and you know what I feel like watching it again.
This, IMHO, is a very underrated movie.
It has a huge cast, great dialogue and awesome editing & cinematography.
Even though it was made in 1999 it is worth a look... especially in 1080p with some good surround sound!

Really can't recall if I ever watched Any Given Sunday. Looks familiar, but I've seen so many films it looks like I've forgotten some. Will check it out when I have the chance.

Snatch was a great film. Enjoyed it a lot. Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels didn't draw me in as I thought it would have. Maybe I was sleepy when watching it. Will give it a second viewing someday.
