Old Man Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Re: What Have You Watched Recently? A crap ton of iCarly ever since my kids "discovered" it. I have a feeling my older one wants to watch it because he thinks Miranda Cosgrove is cute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghost-angel Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Re: What Have You Watched Recently? Cyber Wars - an excellent cyberpunk movie. Genevieve O'Reilly plays a bounty hunter in a modern city where everyone is chipped, mostly she goes after SimPlants - people using simulated implants. The movie opens with a standard capture, then she's hired to catch a guy whose managed to go Full Neural, overwriting his entire brain signature so there's no SimPlant to trace. It quickly evolves into a Us Vs Mega-Corp. But, a nice twist on the idea, there were some gun fights but nicely low key and not the entire movie. Cyberspace was also done really well here. It's a movie from Singapore, known as Avatar there. So the big-budget Hollywood crud is nicely MIA. I haven't enjoyed a Cyberpunk movie this much since New Rose Hotel.

csyphrett Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Re: What Have You Watched Recently? Took the boy to see Shorts. This movie is told in episodes and out of order, but with some humor. Black Falls is a company town for Carbon Black and his black box multiuse tool. As he encourages his employees to work out new features for his product, ignores his kids, and tries to make some more millions, a wishing rock is about to show everyone how good they got it.

cranialspasm Posted September 1, 2009 Report Share Posted September 1, 2009 Re: What Have You Watched Recently? For TV - Legend of the Seeker, Merlin, Warehouse 13, Psych, and Leverage [if you haven't seen this series on TNT... Go to their website, add it to Netflix...]. I have "Party Down" on instaplay for the Netflix... It's an effen riot. I'm three episodes in for the shortlived 10 episode show, but it's totally worth it. For Movies - Last Five Movies on my Netflix... 1. Dr. Strangelove 2. This is Spinal Tap 3. Ed Wood 4. Goonies 5. Dead Man Live Theatre - Avenue Q on my bestfriends birthday (in Feb) Oh, and I did catch geek theatre at GenCon... A jedi and a nightelf were fighting and obviously prepping for a breakup... She starts bawling and says "I'm not looking for someone to group with, I'm looking for a boyfriend." It was so beautiful. I wanted to film them, but I figured watching them out of my periphery was all I could do without getting struck with a lightsaber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lapsedgamer Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 Re: What Have You Watched Recently? I am watching Defying Gravity streaming on Hulu. Not bad at all. Decent hard SF, with a nice dramatic storyline and interesting character development. I really like Ron Livingston as an actor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundog Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 Re: What Have You Watched Recently? Ditto on the Defying Gravity. Probably a little too soap opera for some, but I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markdoc Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 Re: What Have You Watched Recently? A bunch of stuff. District 9: easily the best SciFi movie I've seen in some time. Let the Right One In: Swedish vampire film. I'd give it a bloodstained thumb up. Slumdog Millionaire. It was OK. I enjoyed it, but can't see what all the buzz was about. The Triplets of Bellville. Entertaining, but surreal. Very surreal. Wanted. Cool action scenes, but overall a pretty lame movie. and some other films I can't recall right now. Tonight we're going to see a kung-fu double feature! cheers, Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FenrisUlf Posted September 9, 2009 Report Share Posted September 9, 2009 Re: What Have You Watched Recently? Battle in Outer Space The H-man Mothra I'd like to know more about these three in particular. How do the original Japanese releases stack up against the more familiar International versions?
