Movies Discussion Thread V1: Ratings and Opinions
Saw The Cabin in the Woods since my cousin pressured to do so.
And boy I did I like the film? I was so wrong about it the whole time that it would be another "Hack n' Slash" horror movie.. but it wasn't! It instead was everything that I wasn't expecting!
The closest thing I can compare it is "Cube" which came out in 1997. Wow.

Have u seen Cabin Fever ?
some recent events made me think of sharing this Butterfly At The Ganges River, its a tv movie of 2 episodes, and speaks hard truth, really hard.
anyways, i think travelers may find this interesting.
can you put in a bit more info on what theme is in a spoiler? There seems to be no detailed info in english.
Horror is not my genre. Didn't watch Cabin Fever.
But I do like movies like Cube which have a flair of Sci Fi in it.
Watched Blue Ruin, amateur revenge movie. Sticks to realism without any over the top scenes. It's everything but a typical hollywood movie.
Watched Alien too, just so that I see the similarity in Alien Isolation. Creative Assembly did an excellent job in replicating the same environment.

here u go.
its based on foreigner backpacker experience on traveling in india, what they expect, what they find, how they stay, travel, navigate around, and also the cultural shocks and etc etc.
for a more detailed synopsis u may click this link, and its a spoiler: Nao Kanzaki and a few friends: Masami Nagasawa in Ganges Gawa de Butterfly, a brief synopsis
a lot shooting was done in kolkata (including howrah station probably, i don't remember) and to the way to varanasi. some scenes are a little exaggerated in J style, but overall u will be thinking a lot of stuff after watching it.
lol, why govt always make such incredible india & atithi deba vaba ads, but never actually cares to take a look at travel infrastructure & peoples mentality, there are many things we see in our everyday life, those appear normal to us, but when seen from a foreigner's eye, the same become a bit of disturbing.

I am still confused if I should put it in the must not thread.
The first few mins of the movie is really good & interesting. Anybody who has read or loved alfred hitchcock & the three investigators, famous five or any alfred hitchcock movies might agree with this. However as the movie progresses it just becomes worse & worse which means over direction,acting, melodrama etc. In short it becomes boring.
The movie had content but it was not made well. Again it has been overrated at IMDB. Maybe a good film for under 15. Speilberg now teaming up with bay & abrahams & producing such crap movies.

The ads were made to make people aware of this basic things which people learn in their primary standard textbook. Unfortunately like you said govt only shows the ad & considers the job done. Strict rules should be made for maintaining hygiene all over the city. Behaving good with foreigners. If you see the history you will find many instances where people behaved bad even with our fellow neighbours like chinese & the japnese.
Its not that only most of the people in this country are bad. people in other countries are bad too but may not be to this extent. Why don't we open a thread & people who have experience on foreign travels share their experience there.

The list ends at 78 (The Producers). Where are other 12?
And I hope the list isn't in a particular order? Since Hum Tum on #7?

Edit: Saw the note. Should have completed the 100 first. -_-
Well, it was!
You are trapped in a place you can't really leave (the way they get trapped is different).
Traps to kill people are setup by people themselves. In Cube it was setup by the people who built the Cube maze, in CITW they were being manufactured by people in that lab.
In both the movies the killing of people were being held by scientists and largely in the name of "entertainment".
I think "remote" connections are there.

I know, I know. The list was work in progress for such a long time now (may be 4-5 years) that I wanted to publish it anyway.
I'll keep adding here, considering the pace at which movies got added to it, next 12 might take another 4-6 years!

I Origins - 9/10
A best sci-fi movie without relying on the CGI effects. Though it started slow, it picked up its phase in the middle and ended with the decision left to the user's imagination. I never knew, so many scientific things behind our eyes. Thanks to someone above, who posted the movie in this thread.

Cabin fever was more like a run-of-the-mill mainstream horror flick. Cabin in the woods was refreshingly different.
