Re: What's the last movie you watched?
 
OK, I'd like to semi-jack this thread and ask "What did everyone have a problem with Haywire about?"
I watched it last night and liked about 92% of what I was seeing. It meandered a bit near the end but
righted the ship. Woman looked good, hand to hand fighting was sprinkled liberally, but not anything drawn out
and frankly the fight choreography was pretty entertaining and believable. The story was a cliche', sure,
but it was not embarassing. I have seen nothing but thumbs down on this one...:confused::sh....I give it a :tu

Last night I rewatched 23. I really like Jim Carreys role in it, it strays from his norm. It's kind of funny, because he's an animal control guy...ironic.

It's a very predictable ending, but it's just a great movie.

Shane, I can recall when my roomate was working a security detail at Destrehan Plantation where they were shooting a
lot of scenes for Interview with the Vampire. He was on overnight security and we took a lot of photos on the set.
If you recall the scene where Brad Pitt flies into Tom Cruise and slams him into a big oak tree and ol Tom just laughs
at him...it was right after he turned him. That tree had been covered with a big batt of foam rubber and painted
to match the bark. We took some photos holding each other up against that tree. I need to find those pics...
The place where they burned down the first house was there, as was that whole scene when he is pondering being fully
turned and after he is turned, but before they moved to the Quarter. (Although the exterior from the first scene of the
film on the levee was filmed upriver at Oak Alley...supposed to be the same house, but it isn't.) Good times, I was sure
a lot younger then.

The Three Stooges movie 2012. Actually pleasently surprised by it. The new guys playing Larry, Moe & Currly are spot on with the imitation. I took my 7 year old and we laughed pretty much the whole movie. Worth checking out.

I agree that it is a lot better that I thought it would be...I was thinking it was a bio-pic, turns out it's just
a long form Stooges reel split into 3-4 "shorts". But while I do think that each of the players has a few of
the main sayings/mannerisms of their stooge down, I think Larry's actor Sean Hayes slips a lot, when he
is good, HE'S FREAKING FANTASTIC, and when he slips, he's so-so.

It's funny to hear the Moe actor say "Spread OUT..."

Sounds pretty awesome Brad, I do know the tree you speak of. I love that movie, better everytime I watch it. Wouldn't mind seeing those pics if you run across them.

I tried to find this on DirectTV and couldn't. I might just wait and buy it on DVD, I am a huge fan of Gina and wouldn't mind owning this one even if it sucks.

I have it coming from Netflix, DVD sales started yesterday.

I also am a huge fan of Gina Carano and a growing fan of Rowdy Ronda Rousey Olympic Judo Medalist. If you haven't seen her yet, youtube her. Shes 6-0 and the champion now. All her wins are with arm bars with a few broken arms. 5 matches never went over 49 seconds with the championship match also ending in the first round......she is the new Bone Collector.

Oh yah she was just on TUF, I didn't know who she was before that episode though. She kinda reminds me of Julia Styles!

I just finished watching Haywire....

The storyline was a little blah, But I really liked it and will watch it again tonight.
I think Carano was believable in the part she played. As far as her acting? Hell it was her first 'real" acting job and like I said. She was believable and made the fight scenes look more real than any other girl that I've seen in fight scenes.

I don't think it was a waste of time. ;)

I love that one. When the principle busts his gut laughing after being told about the peep hole into the girl's shower, I lose it with him.
