    Rango 10/10.

    Incredible CGI, excellent plot, and some great voice acting.

    I will say however that it's actually pretty complex for being pushed as a kids movie.

    Even a bit dark at times.

    Fantastic 4 Rise of the Silver Surfer - 4/10

    Edward Furlong's career is one big sigh.



    The Fighter - 7/10

    Melissa Leo, and Christian Bale were amazing in this flick. Bravo.

    ^yeah besides T2 and American History X, pretty meh for a career.

    Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (7/10) I had no idea what this movie was about going into it, was surprised by the pretty graphic scenes, overall it was alright. Of course Hollywood had to go and remake it, which is due out end of this year.

    Except this remake will probably be better than the "original". Quotations since that movie is based on a book, so it's also not original. David Fincher has to make a better movie than that overlong, boring flick in Swedish. Hopefully it's also rated R and has some boobies :awesome:. Also, Trent Reznor's doing the scoring for that. Can't wait.

    I liked the original version.

    It's actually part of a series of movies based off the main character.

    How Do You Know - total bullshit.
    An hour and 30 minutes in and you're still wondering what the plot is.

    Yeah, I liked it. There was just a good portion of the movie that was lacking I thought.

    Haha oh it will have boobies alright! The promo images already show a topless Rooney Mara :awesome: I'm so psyched for this remake. Fincher will make it his own thing.

    I dunno, Fincher is a hit or miss director IMO, look at his resume, Alien 3, wow what a piece of shit. Curious Case of Benjamin Button, that movie was way too long and boring as fuck. Social Network is pretty overrated IMO. That said when he does do a good job it's fucking amazing, Se7en and Fight Club are incredible. I'll probably still watch the remake just to see what changes occur

    I just watched The Girl Who Played with Fire, it was better than the first movie. 7.5/10 Plus it had boobies.

    I thought Social Network was an okay movie, not this amazing film that people at time were saying it should win an Oscar.

    I did not like Benjamin Button at all, it just wasn't my thing, bored the shit out of me.

    But if you still think David Fincher is a God, just watch Alien 3

    trav21, yes she still had pit hair lol

    Well, Alien 3 was his first film, and there was a lot of studio intervention if I recall correctly. I think we can cut him some slack for that one. (As an aside, I actually don't mind Alien 3, flawed as it is.)

    To each his own, just saying just cause Fincher is directing doesn't mean the remake is going to be super duper. I'll still watch it just out of pure curiosity. In general though I feel remakes suck, especially when the original is a foreign film.

    So I finished the trilogy, The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest 6.5/10, it was not bad but not good either just eh, the second movie is the best IMO. Overall the trilogy was pretty meh now that I think about it. Lisbeth is a bad ass awesome character though.

    I'm not really an emotional person but the beginning of Up gets me everytime. :cry:

    --

    Fast Five - 9/10

    The best one of the series for sure. Action, cars, hot women...if I was a guy I think I would have had a permanent boner throughout the entire movie. Good stuff. Oh and The Rock is built like a friggin machine, I felt as though I was watching Transformers half the time. :lol:
