Im looking for some No Limit soldiers!

There are only a few movies that I've seen in my entire life that I have very much disliked. I don't know if I ever hated a movie. It doesn't take much for me to like a movie, so I've liked a lot of the ones on all your worst lists (but I can see why people don't like them).

 

 

 

So I am just giving a favourite list:

 

 

 

1. In Bruges

 

2. The Dark Knight

 

3. Cloverfield

 

4. Iron Man

 

5. Zack and Miri Make a Porno

I don't hate the movies I listed on my "bad" list. I just didn't find them "good"

 

 

 

Worst Movie of 08'-

 

1.TROPIC THUNDER- just no... terrible acting.

 

 

 

What? RDJ should be given an Oscar for his performance (exaggerating obv. but the only ones who failed were Jack Black and Ben Stiller. rest were :thumbup: even Cruise)

I just feel bad putting a movie that I enjoyed even a little on a worst list. So I don't really have any movies to put on it. Except for The Love Guru. [bleep] that movie. It was bad.

That is what makes it overrated! People saying that it is good. I know it's good, I've seen it but I have seen better, example : Wall-E and Cloverfield. What makes me hate it more is that everyone says it is quote "Best movie of all time" :wall: When I have to argue with them about every time. That is why it is overrated!

Same here.

 

 

 

Dark Knight was alright. Not that great though. Just had a lot of guns and explosions. Shiny good.

 

 

 

I haven't seen that many movies this year. Um, Tropic Thunder, Pineapple Express, Yes Man, Wanted... Think those are the only 2008 films I've seen. They were all pretty dern good. Oh, Stepbrothers. And Quantum of Solace - probably the only movie I actually didn't totally enjoy. Didn't feel Bondish. Was pretty explodey though, so that made up for it. Eagle Eye was okay, but became really predictable.

catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream

Dark Knight was great mostly because it had one of the best villains ever on the big screen. the joker was so friggin good in this movie...also, it did have a good story, its action was pretty good...some scenes were kinda stupid...(skyhook looked crappy, the whole cellphone blueprint system was kinda lame...)...

hatsune-miku-wallpaper-49-1.jpg

Funnily enough, I just watched The Dark Knight for the second time. I have mixed feelings about it. I think it was a really good movie and actually challenged viewers in some ways, instead of being just a big explosion-fest. But the way it was presented, as in the cinematography and the way some of the themes were done, just didn't feel right to me.

 

 

 

I can't really make a list as I didn't see enough movies last year to make one. But Cloverfield and TDK were good, Twilight was bad. If I saw any others they didn't stand out to me.

I agree with you that The Dark Knight is pretty good, but it was pretty much labelled as the second coming of Christ.

 

 

 

Don't have much of a list but I liked:

 

 

 

In Bruges

 

Pineapple Express

 

Dark Knight

 

Zack and Miri make a Porno

 

Curious Case of Benjamin Button

 

 

 

And some others.

Burn after reading, MORONS!
