Movies Discussion Thread V1: Ratings and Opinions

No highs, No lows = Bose.
Trollest Hindi movie ever --- GUNDA [starring mithun chakraborthy]
Best Bolly movie in the last 3 years --- Kahani --- after a long time we matched the hollywood standards [IMO].
Best brain teasing thriller in the past 3 years -- Inception without a doubt.
Some more exceptional thrillers --- Shutter island,The usual suspects,Memento, Silence of the lambs, Saving Pvt Ryan, Deja vu, All Nolan movies [including the ones he made whilst graduating].
Best Horror Movies --- JUST ONE --- The BlairWitch Project - documentary.
What you wont see in this movie --- possessed girls fluing around or blue colored people flying out from nowhere.
What you ll see --- Three film students go missing after traveling into the woods of Maryland to make a documentary about the local Blair Witch legend leaving only their footage behind.
The paranormal activity series tried to recreate similar era only to result in a sadistic failure which became more of a joke as the series advanced. The 3 students cast in the bw project are actually not seen till date. Plus there wasnt much of evidence found against it. So,its worth a watch. [of course I am not implying it was real, but atleast they had not left much to prove them wrong unlike paranormal activity which had released different end to its first part in different theatres - LOL]
While watching ring and grudge ---- I actually fall off my chair laughing.
The excocism of emily rose had some good scenes but as it was based on true events ---- it was just too hard to believe. Some important potholes in the fathers theory made it a '' not so good movie ''.
The excocist was really good considering the horror movies at that time.
Movies that will get your mind FU*** ---
DAVID LYNCHS MOVIES --- ESPECIALLY >>> THE LOST HIGHWAY and THE MULHOLLAND DRIVE.
[Had to watch a good 4 times to understand TLH completely and after really understanding what the movie implied,I could draw only 1 conclusion --- Lynch twisted a very simple idea to an infinite extent just to make the movie look like it was built for the elites. After watching TMD, which ran a similar storyline --- I was pretty convinced that Lynch was primarily disturbed.

Geralt Of Rivia!
anyone here watched Paranormal Activity 4?

PowerHouse
Watched it two days back. I would say its not worth the HYPE.
Seriously? Blair witch project?
Well, to each his own. That was mediocre to say the least, with hardly any activity that happens and I guess they stretched the realism of realtime perspective camera far too in limbo so much that actually all we get to hear is sound and nothing else.
PA 1 & 2 were good enough, yeah 3rd and 4th sucked!
There isn't a single movie that can be awarded the coveted 'scariest movie' tag. There are multiple movies that deserve that combinedly!

Insidious
Dead Silence
Ragini MMS

Ive seen Mirrors and cloverfield --- In my books, mirror falls in the "not scary" section --- nothing scary but for a few mediocre scenes at the end[the face-off]. I actually dont know if we could say cloverfield was horror with numerous uncertain things. But it was a good movie to say the least.
I ll surely try the other 3. TY.
Thanks bro but I'd rather watch po*n.

Well thats just my opinion --- I have mine, you have yours and I dont feel it your way --- "multiple movies sharing the tag". PA 1 would have been good if it had not messed up while hitting the box office. It had shown 3 different endings in different theaters. Plus the release of further series made it look more unreal.
quote 1 - ""all we get to hear is sound and nothing else"
quote 2 - ""with hardly any activity that happens"" ---
do you fancy capturing the devil on your camera or a man suddenly disappearing into thin air. Such things IMO can only occur in the parallel universe. The essence of a mockumentary is to show you the way things happened - they will not manipulate and induce more activity just because some viewers [having emotions similar to yours] fancy it.
If you see a woman float subconsciously in the air and then get dragged along the floor --- It doesnt make it a good ""MOCKUMENTARY"" --- It makes it look more like any other horror film. The fact that the BWP did not have such unreal scenes made me feel ""**** MAN, THIS COULD HAVE ACTUALLY HAPPENED""
---
As you said, to each his own. We seem to have anti parallel thoughts. No offense intended [and none taken]. Cheers.

Democracy is a myth
Dude, you've some misconceptions about these "mocumentary". In the same line I hope you are yet to watch "District 9", "Trollhunter", "Thale", "The Tunnel", "Rec", "Rec:2" and obviously "V/H/S...
Mocumentary is a way of filming, don't just think everything is true and IDK how you got the misconception that every director would go this far to hide their actors for over a year. And, neither did the producers/director of "BWP"
Moonrise Kingdom 7/10
A very interesting start with awesome cinematography (My pick for this year's Oscar in the same category) but a shaky ending.
