I went to see my doctor yesterday, and was surprised to see that she wasn't there - she was replaced temporarily by a much younger and HOTTER doctress. ROFL 'doctress'.

Anyway, She wants me. I think she intentionally wrote one of the prescriptions wrong so that I have to visit her today again to correct it. I plan on making a move.
I hope no law suit.

If you find a film really clever and well made but never choose to watch it is it a good film? The classic example in my case is the Shawshank Redemption which I watched twice and was like "zomg awesome" and bought on dvd 4 years ago. I've not watched it once since. Do I even like that film? Are the films which appeal on a much baser level like, for example Underworld Evolution (Kate Beckinsale + tight leather + cool fights + absurdly overpoweredness), better films than the classics?

I generally ignore the general forum because there is never anything of interest in there these days. All the good stuff has gone to blogs. This is perhaps one of the better general forum threads in a while. Where are you actually from btw Brood?

Actually this thread is pretty nice. People are carrying out conversations, I'm learning about film theory, and the flames are at a relative low for a general thread. So what's your take on "The Dark Knight"? Masterpiece or overdone or other?

i had a dream that i got sniped by a ghozt.

last night i was watching "heat", and i was thinking about how awesome it is. a lot of people think pacino is over the top, and specifically, i've read some harsh criticism for "heat". personally i think mann's a great director, and there's psychological themes in 'heat' are pretty cool.

your thoughts?

Yeah, I'm curious to your take on this too brood, I thought The Dark Knight was really good and without a doubt the best super hero movie ever made in my opinion, however do I believe that it's the 3rd best movie ever made? (IMDB Reference) no, definitely not. It was done very nice and the acting was incredible, it's hard to compare movies in different genre's but I just think that giving this movie that high of a rating for what I see as just Heath Ledger performance is overrating it. American History X not only had incredible acting but some of the most intense incredible storyline ever made.
Few movies ever draw emotion like American History X does, and even with Heath Ledgers performance I don't think it compares.

your thoughts brood?

The Dark Knight has certainly set the bench mark for "super hero movies". The film had no qualms about attacking morality issues, both in-your-face and very subtle.

The main problem of the film, in my opinion, is that it doesn't know which questions to ask, and which ones to answer. Despite a cadre of strong performances, the film remains uncomfortably ambiguous as to it's intent. Technically flawless, I wish Ledger were around for Nolan to construct a strong follow up/

it doesn't have to ask or answer questions, batman has to stop a villain

there shouldn't be anything so ambitious in a batman movie

Where the hell is Chill or Hotbid, or at least micronesia. Would of made the thread way better.

Dark Knight was good, somewhat over-hyped, but quite good. There was a hell of a lot of word-of-mouth for that movie what with everyone being like "Fuck its good."

Yeah, I'm really not as cool as them. Maybe you can expound on what made the Dark Knight a good movie for us, though.

I watched The Devil's Advocate recently. I spent 95% of the film pretty bored. I was sitting there thinking 'ok... the story is gripping, the way it's filmed is really clever, Al Pacino is masterful, the blurring of real and fantasy to explain complex concepts while keeping the viewer wondering just what is real is sublime and yet for some reason it's not doing it for me'.
And then the twist at the end happened and it all just came together for me and I loved it. It became a masterpiece. My hands shook, I was in shock for hours afterwards by just how good that film was.

However to this day I'm really quite unsure how I feel about that film. I think it's really well done and I think the way it all comes together at the end is fantastic. However, it's like most of the film is strangely unsatisfying at the time and while in retrospect it is good I feel had I had anything better to do I'd have probably stopped watching half way. It just didn't do it for me at the time, although once I'd seen the end everything preceding it was redeemed. Does that make it a bad film?
