Are you joking? Travolta is a fantastic bad guy.

I agree. "Face Off" and "Broken Arrow" reinvented that man.

Why not go the whole hog and get street hawk done as well

Just for you Cocker

Poetic justice.

I could go so far as to say divine retribution.

"He who sitith on ass and eatith without ending shall have difficulty with paperwork."

What the frig is up with this though?

Chalk this up to another Rovers Vs World situation.

Same story line as Rita, Sue and Bob Too

The worst gore laced horror flick has never had my stomach churn as that... mov... (cant even give it the name) did.

Surely has to be up there as worst mov… of all time.

Had a great game Sunday, and really hope he can continue to produce such form. Too often this season he has looked disinterested to me!

Puppies always prance around and look good when someone is looking through the shop window.

Anyone know of any really good new movies?

I liked Taken, I usually like gang type films, or anything with a good story....any ideas?!

Hughesy you should give Public Enemies a go.

I feel that it got a bit of a bad rap for some reason.

Depp did very well (as always) in my opinion.

"Fear and Trembling" is a very cool film to watch with the wife or girlfriend. I kind of stumbled across it as I had read the book and thought the movie was very well done. It is teh story of a Belgian woman who works for a mega company in Japan. It is hilarious and well worth a go.

Possibly the best commercial ever for a video game.

Both.

Well the book certainly implies that it is a world wide cataclysm as the child was born right before the event and the fires etc were still raging across the country while he was approx 8-12 and no help forthcoming from unaffected nations?

And if there was fires that destroyed every living thing, tree and crop except a few survivors it certainly would be ashy and dark.

A Team Movie trailer

Looks ok but it will never be the same as the classics without the original actors imo.

Looks pretty rough to me.

Some things should never be attempted.

Bring on Knight Rider, Street Hawk and Airwolf... Maybe a remake of Blue Thunder too, and the live action Thiundercats and Smurfs with a dash of Snorks.

Comparing it to other 'End of the World' movies is inaccurate since nobody actually knows what has happened to the planet or why. It could be the US alone that has suffered this catastrophe or it could be the entire world. There is no way of knowing.

Do you mean in the movie or the book?

By slightly dodgy, I only mean that it had me thinking of the smurfs throughout. It actually is very good. Maybe not the 'best' per se, but definately a quality film and, as I pointed out, some very important take-home messages about the real world. You find yourself on the side of the Na'vi. I genuinely felt ashamed of humans when I came out the cinema hahaha

The script was pretty much a rehash of Aliens quotes and Dances with Wolves plot.

It was pretty and entertaining but as ground breaking as a snowflake -- beautiful but light on substance.

they filter everything so its greyed out

From the clips I have seen it looks like a bleak day in Grimsby, not the end of the world.

The Road, based on Cormac McCarthy's novel of the same name, goes on general release January 8th. I'm really looking forward to this though the trailer I've seen and the media adverts suggest the film may have failed to capture the bleakness and nervous excitment of the book. I find it strange to be anticipating a film, and have been for weeks, yet worrying that it may fail to recreate a fantastic novel.

The Road is short and very readable so I'd strongly recommend getting the book before seeing the film. It's unremittingly bleak, hopeless but marvellously descriptive even though the subject is so utterly depressing. Enjoy!

To be honest this book should have been made into a black and white movie, it would be the only way to convey the ash and unremitting darkness.

I can not see for one second how they can successful pull this off in color and stay true to the book.

This is supposedly the best indie-horror since Blair Witch.

I wanna see it.

The face as he plummets down the building is also priceless.

Wonder if he was actually going to try and take them with him, always wondered if he was about to shoot McClane or his wife before the watch, "Its a Rolex" was unfastened.

We should make our own list of classic movie villians. A top 10.

Scathing

Callaghan was on the list though. Jake LaMotta isn't a movie character.

I know where he is coming from though, as I still can not get over Buzz Lightyear.

Hans Gruber did make that movie though, if it was anyone other than Bruce Willis being the star, Rickman might well have stolen the whole thing.

I think his portrayal of The Sheriff of Nottingham in "Robin Prince of Thieves" is worthy of a mention, as it was pretty much the movies only saving grace.

http://www.empireonline.com/100-greatest-movie-characters/

A good fun read - thoughts on the list?

Don't with some of it. Buzz Lightyear? But I am happy to see that many of my favorites are on there. Don't know about No.1 though, if the criteria were for messed up sociopaths, Jack for the Shining gets that every day. It was such a strange mix of characters but most verged into the violent genre.

Mel's character is worthy of more than #100 don't you think?

And where was Kurt's classic from Big Trouble in Little China?

Were you shook up? Were you nervous?

I was indeed nervous, but was not about to call him an a$$hole.

Type tilt under Search For Users

Okay thanks for that I see your list now, Children of Men should go close to top of your list also. I thought that was a heady and rather well put together movie, of course the book was deeper.

I have only seen 108 of them, I was sure it would be higher.

The whole film's one great big quoteable line.

"Is that you John Wayne? Is this me?"

You are quite correct.

That line holds special love for me though as it was used against me in boot camp. It sucked as I knew what was coming but still had to say "Yes Petty Officer!"

As well as the famous cadence.

"I don't know but I've been told,

Eskimo P%^&@y is mighty cold."

Number 114...

Thank you for helping me make an ass out of myself.

And Full Metal Jacket as well. That film is just pure brilliant.

"You better start ****ing me tiffany cuff-links Pyle, or I will most definitely **** you up!"

"Did your mother have any children that lived?"

"Sir yes sir"

"I bet they regret that. Your so ugly you could be a modern art masterpiece"

I've been having fun playing with http://www.framerater.co.uk

It tracks which of imdb's top 250 films you and your friends have seen. I'm on there as tilt (and this evenings tick off the list will be scarface).

How do I peruse the movies you have seen?

Blade Runner is not on that list but the Borne Ultimatum is? WTF?!?!

Point Break has just been on BBC1.

Honestly, how cool is that movie? It's just cool, man! :-)

Makes me wanna go surfing on Deal sea-front, even though I can't surf! yeah!

Good movie, Swayze doing his thing. May he rest in peace.

Gary Busey stole that movie though, with lines like these how couldnt he?

"Let me tell you something, Harp. I was in this bureau while you were still popping zits on your funny face and jacking off to the lingerie section of the Sears catalog"

"I'm so hungry I could eat the ass end out of a dead rhino, I should have had you get me three of these things!"

"Listen you snot-nose little s&$#, I was takin' shrapnel in Khe Sanh when you were crappin' in your hands and rubbin' it on your face."

'The Descent' scared me sh1tless although there is some jumpy moments in it.

Forgot about that one, very decent.

I bet I know the jumpy moment that got you the most. My wife had to be peeled from the ceiling.

I haven't seen it, because I'm not that into horror, but a guy in work was telling me about a French movie called Martyrs. This guy is a real movie buff and is the most laid back, nonresponsive, unemotional person I know and isn't easily put off. However even he had a hard time watching this movie. I've seen the trailer on youtube and it looks vile. I've also seen scenes from the movie, which are even worse.

Along the French lines give "Haute Tension" a try. Not as gory as the above but I think it is well done and a nice ending.

No I haven't seen that. I read mixed reviews on it so haven't really thought about watching it. I'll ask my friend if he has it as he's a big film buff especially Asian films. If he's got it, i'll let you know what I think of it.

I don't think you will be disappointed if you like the Asian horror style.

Has anyone got any recommendations for genuinely scary films?

By that I mean ones that really get into your head and frighten you...not things like Saw or ones that just rely on moments that make you jump.

The Entity can be a bit of a eerie film. (scared the snot out of me when I was young)

The Evil Dead certainly has its moments.

Kairo, the Japaniese version of Pulse, has the type of creepiness that only the Japanese seem to be able to do correctly.

Horror seems to be stuck in a horrible cycle of crap right now. A Haunting in Connecticut was so dire that it shames me to have watched it.

A good horror tale that is quite short is "The Incident On and Off a Mountain Road" by Don Coscarelli. Not Scary but well done and entertaining, it was part of that Masters of Horror series. In my opinion this one was the best.

Have you tried any Japanese horror films such as The Ring, Ju-on (aka The Grudge), Audition, The Eye?

Tim, did you happen to catch "CARVED" aka "A Slit-Mouthed Woman"?

That movie was eerie as hell.
