Films watched recently... (CAUTION, SPOILERS)

I never even heard of that film till that seeing that article. Conservatives are championing it as some victory against feminists trying to describe how motherhood is so difficult and how nobody wants to hear that bullshit.

For the first time in my life, I am willing to subject myself to a Michael Cera movie.

Having seen several, I can say that this one looks pretty shit as well.

I've only seen Nick & Nora and Year One. Both were shit. N&N tried WAAAAAY too hard to be hip and indie.

I watched N&N with the sound off. Nora has a great rack!

That looks like it has potential. But it's still Cera, so I'm still very skeptical.

Well I can say right now that I won't be seeing that.

The more I watch that trailer, the more I think "Wow, that looks really stylish and original, but why must it have such a weak story??" I'll probably see it but may not like it.

At least Cera actually goes up and talks to the girl without fear instead of shuffling his feet and mumbling from five feet away.

I am excited because it's by the director of Hot Fuzz/Shaun of the Dead aka funniest movies ever. Not sure if Michael Cera suits his humour but I'm def very interested.

Oh god, really? I'll probably watch it out of disbelief that he can make a bad film. And be disappointed. :sad:

Wow, whats with all the Cera hate? I think he is hilarious! I've liked him since Arrested Development.

Anyway, watched Moon again. Still amazing. I'm a little pissed off that Sam Rockwell wasn't nominated for any awards for it. It has become my favorite movie of '09 and has surpassed many on my all time favorites list.

He's a talentless little twat. Half of why he was funny in AD was because he was so pathetic. You honestly think he can act, and that, say, Nick & Nora's Infinite Playlist, was a good film? :wacko:Anyways, isn't he the reason we don't have an AD film?

Great film. I think you only realise how great once it's over and you keep going back to it.

Ninja Assassin

about as cool as H_T on a Saturday night

Wintermute

Judging by my Avatar...I plan on seeing the Scott Pilgrim film.

Appreciation of source material + EDGAR WRIGHT + ambivalence to Michael Cera + Mary Elizabeth Winstead is hot = Ticket Bought

I could care less about his acting. He is hilarious. I haven't seen Nick and Nora... but love everything else he is in. I don't watch his movies for the art of acting, but to laugh my ass off.

As Zad noted, Cera's contract demand held up the AD movie, and I hate him for that. I do think he has some talent though.

The Darjeeling Limited - Funny and beautiful movie. My favourite by Wes Anderson and just one of my favourites overall.
