The greatest film ever made?!

IT'S A GOOD DAY TO DIE!

"You apes wanna live forever?!"

Sure, if you stop making shitty sequels to a brilliant film.

It was almost laughably bad though.

I saw a trailer for it on my Outpost dvd earlier today (Outpost is gooseberry fool) and I wasn't sure what looked worse: ST3 or Zombie Strippers :lol:

And you were thinking this film wouldn't disappoint?

Indiana Jones was the film that most disappointed me this year.

Though it's probably my own fault for expecting it to be good in the first place. After all, Last Crusade was shite as well.

X-files and Burn After Reading also disappointed.

Quantum Of Solace was a HUGE letdown. I'm still hurt.

My gf at the time was practically wanking herself dry over it and how good it was, i fell asleep and missed the end complete clownshit.

There's something about Ryan Gosling that's incredibly boring, I remember Half Nelson last year being the most boring thing I'd seen in months.

Bender's Game.

Disappointing: failing to fulfill one's hopes or expectations:

going by the dictionary definition.. Dark Knight.

is a good film.. but disappointing. as i expected it to be OMFG AWESOME, the way everyone went on about it.. and it being #4 on IMDB..

a very good film.. cdefinatly not a bad film.. but not the best film ever.. and therefore definately disappointing..

Triga Films - strawberry float a Hoodie.

It's just like Scallyboy Orgy 2, even the "actors" are the same. :evil:

Deleted from hard drive pretty quick. Not worth keeping both the same.

Oh dear god that's real:

Breaking News! HOODIES who vandalised a local youth club were yesterday nicked and forced to strawberry float each other in radical new moves introduced by the Home Office.

The 3 tear-aways who were spotted on CCTV spray painting the local council offices at 4 in the morning were promptly arrested by police. Camera operators rang the local bobbies and within 30 minutes the troublesome gang were taken to an unknown address and made to sort each other out!

Hot spunk sprayed and arses were plunged as this group of nutters were forced to eat cock, strawberry float each other hard also get a seeing to from another local bunch of lads! CCTV supervisor Tommy Carter said: "They didn’t look happy as the other local gang strawberry floated em rotten in front of their mates. It was strawberry floatin horny though!"

Not fazed by their ordeal the group of unruly street urchins wanted a re-match with the gang who shafted them and we've caught it all on film!

From memory I think Gario likes them

(If not him one of the people on here does)

Also - Quantum Of Solace

I really disliked cloverfield (was that 2008?) I remember watching all the hype surrounding this, thinking hey this looks good, but it was just a guy holding a camera getting cheap scares for the audiance, I just wasn't convinced by the whole film.

Cloverfield was February 2008.

I've managed to avoid the real dross this year and largely enjoyed my trips to the cinema - Wall E and TDK will force themselves in to my favourites movies list soon, no doubt.

However, one film that scars my mind is Wanted. It was just awful. It tried to pass itself off as cool (presumably due to its comic roots) but it tried too hard and just looked generic. If I was 13, I might be amazed by the car chase, someone getting shot in slow-mo or Angelina Jolie's arse. Lines such as "I was miserable and pathetic, like you" and particularly the closing line of "What the strawberry float have you done today" were terribly bad, and a replacement for making the film gritty and edgy in its own right.

Plus, my friend who was with me at the time had just gained a first in his Law degree. So that's what he strawberry floating done today, James, you unconvincing assassin-shit.

And if you take orders based on textile machinery, you can't blame anyone if it all goes horribly wrong.

It got decent reviews and has garnered a sequel too, unfortunately. I'm not a fan of the comic, so I don't know if they're going to bring Morgan Freeman or Jolie back, or if they're going to shoehorn in the Knitting Needle of Destiny to further the tired plot next time.

Zack and Miri also wasn't a patch on Rogen's other stuff, like Knocked Up and Superbad. Substituting swear words for dialogue does not a funny make. At least - thank God - it was better than Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.

Wanted - A strawberry floating loom!

I was semi enjoying the film, until the loom was introduced! I was like really? a strawberry floating loom

Indy
Quantum of Solace
Wall.E

Even Cloverfield was worse than I expected.
