Did I mention how fans of Superbad and Knocked Up tend to find the very idea that someone doesn't like their precious movies reprehensible? Yeah, that kinda annoys me too.

Yeah. They're just not that funny, and if I watch a film that's billed as comedy I prefer to laugh more than once or twice.

What did you think of Pineapple Express, LOTN? I found that pretty hilarious compared to S/KU/FSM.

Body of Lies - awesome, who woulda thought DiCaprio would of become such a good actor

Forgetting Sarah Marshal - i found it funnier this, my second, time through

DiCaprio is amazing. I watched Titanic for the first time since 1998 just a week ago and I couldn't believe how good he was.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is one of the funniest recent comedies, much better than Superbad, Knocked Up and the rest of the Judd Apatow-films.

Titanic is awesome!

I don't think I like DiCaprio very much but I find his acting in that movie better than what he's doing nowadays.

Have you seen The Departed? Blood Diamond? Body of Lies? Get back to me when you've seen these and your balls drop.

I have seen The Departed and Blood Diamond. And in my opinion the whole "I'm-so-angry-all-the-time" face he puts on is just silly. He was a better actor when he didn't try to be tougher than the next guy. The same thing happened to Mark Whalberg. But even though I don't like the performance from DiCaprio I found Djimon Hounsou to be decent. In The Decent I couldn't find anything good with the performances. Nicholson is trying to be the biggest actor in the world and because of that he fails. And what the fuck was up with the ending? It's like one of my early school tales I wrote. When I didn't have any other ideas to put into it or didn't know how to finish up the story, I just wrote: "He woke up and realised it had all been a bad dream". THE END. :cool:

EDIT: I really want to see Body Of Lies. Russell Crowe is an amazing actor.

Marky Mark really, really, really cannot act. Comparing him to DiCaprio... my god.

And don't criticise mad Jack. "Trying to be the biggest actor in the world" :lame:

Such an awesome post. +1.

Di Caprio is much better now than he was on Titanic. Come on now.

The Incredible Hulk - OK at first, but soon went silly when they brought all the special effects in. Still, Tim Roth.

Thomas · **Posted:** Tue Mar 03, 2009 9:36 pm

Saw Body of Lies before I left, and it's pretty good actually. DiCaprio did good, I am however not Russel Crow's biggest fan and could've done without him.

As far as Seth Rogen goes, I agree that Superbad is pretty shitty, Knocked Up is ok, and 40 year old virgin is pretty okay. Gonna see Pineaple Express later, and watched Zack and Myra make a porno the other day, which was pretty damn fun at times.

Haven't seen Pineapple Express yet. If it's really funnier, I'll get around to watching it.

Um, Jack Nicholson is one of the biggest and most respected actors in the world........(at Angelripper not criticising you Zad)

And Marky mark was good in The Departed and ok in The Basketball Diaries, but that's it.

And Leo's best role so far has been in The Aviator.

And Russel Crowe isn't that great an actor at all. Body of Lies could have done without him.

Oh, and just because we dont like Judd Apatow doesn't mean we dont laugh at GOOD comedy like Arrested Development or good old Monty Python :lame:

Judd Apatow movies are awesome because they make me chuckle the whole way through, laugh ridiculously hard at least a couple of times, and feel all :wub:

because the characters have feelings and stuff.

Uh, what? I could swear at people non-stop for hours, but you wouldn't say that made me a good actor. I presume you mean entertaining, though, which I'll give you.

Gladiator was way too long. And I don't intend to see A Beautiful Mind.

I heard they changed the ending... HAHA NERDS TOLD YOU IT WOULD SUCK. I'll wait 'til Watchmen comes out on DVD before subjecting it to my steely gaze, haven't been to the cinema since Kill Bill 1 and I'm not changing it for the latest comic-book adaptation, especially an adaptation of a rubbish one anyways.
