What's the last great movie you saw in the theater?

[MDC 7,961]

Mine was an asian movie called The Host. It was sort of like a mix of Guillermo del Toro (Hellboy, Pan's Labyrinth) and Terry Gilliam doing a giant monster movie. It was funny and the monster FX were really awesome.

 

I can't recall the last time I rented a great one - I've seen a bunch of duds lately (Proposition, Brick, etc.).

The Departed.

[GettnHuge 2]

by theater and dvd do you mean torrent and burn?

[MDC 7,961]

The Departed.

 

I take it back - that was the last great one I saw on DVD.

[Quickolas1 80]

pan's labryinth (best movie of '06)

[MDC 7,961]

That was really good. The Devil's Backbone (same director) was also excellent and worth a rental.

the last great movie I saw in the Theater was "300"

the last great really good movie I watched on DVD was last week, and it was "Dejavu".

 

I finally watched "The Howling" last night, cause SUX drafted it in the movie draft, and I gotta say, it was halfway decent, but not what I expected with the high praise. Did have some chicks with nice t!ts in it though

Any movie with werewolf sex is at least decent.

 

Dog Soldiers is a great werewolf movie BTW. I the movies...

pan's labryinth (best movie of '06)

 

have this at home, plan to watch this weekend.

 

I got it b/c of the Oscar buzz and looked like a cinematically great film...so with that said, is it still a good film or is just an okay story with great visuals?

 

I'm assuming it's still a very good film overall considering Oscars earned but just curious.

 

That was really good. The Devil's Backbone (same director) was also excellent and worth a rental.

 

What's the plot/premise on that film MDC?

 

And as far as watched in theaters, haven't seen a 'great' movie in awhile in a theater, least not one I can remember.

 

As far as DVD recently watched some 'good' ones: Departed, Prestige, Illusionist, Man on Fire

[mighty_thor 115]

I just saw King of Scotland on dvd. While not a great movie, I thought it was very good. I would call it a great great performance by Forest Whitaker.

[MDC 7,961]

What's the plot/premise on that film MDC?

 

It's sort of a ghost story that place at an orphanage for rebel soldiers during the Spanish Civil war - not a horror movie at all but kind of a dark fantasy like Pan's Labyrinth. I liked the Devil's Backbone a little more.

[gocolts 300]

If a drive-in counts, It would be The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the original. Aroud 1977. I was about 6-7 years old. I was focked up for about 2 weeks after seeeing that as a child.

Pan's Labrynth was also the last great one I saw in the theater.

 

The trailers are a bit misleading. It looks like it is a fantasy movie, but the fantasy portions are only about 1/3 of the movie. It is a war drama that is pretty hardcore in parts. I would not recommend showing it to kids.

 

Smoking Aces was the last one that I rented. It is worth checking out.

[Brown Eyed Girl 1]

Last good one I saw in the theatre was '300'

 

[CantTouchThis 23]

300 in the theater and when it comes out on DVD. 28 weeks was on the verge of great, IMO, but, not quite.

[kutulu 1,714]

The Departed....I don't go to the movies much and when I do it's usually crappy kids movies.
