    The Expendables 3 (2014)

    I remember when Exp2 came out, hearing a mention of Bruce Willis looking like he was bored and just waiting for his pay-check. Then when I saw the, yeah I agreed. Normally a Willis fan, but I don't know what was up, perhaps some thing between him and Stallone? Gotta say of the two movies I...

    Pacific Rim

    It's been said that the most creative people in Hollywood are the studio accountants. They find ways to drop the money into big holes in the system. There was a good example with the film My Big Fat Greek Wedding which was made for less than $6 million, pulled in $350 million, but in the...

    To answer your post, continuing the discussion: From my original post:. . couldn't we ( the humans ) have built a series of Bad-ass gun turret things that would be placed on the sea floor, pointed at the rift . . . By that I meant built on land and then taken to the site and lowered to the...

    I saw a woman recently swimming (wading in water), she had no arms too. Was wearing a full swim-suit, plus had dark hair, so not the same. I had to give it some thought though. I wonder, does she apply sun-screen on herself using her feet??? That'd be a hell of a thing to watch. - - -...

    Just putting this out, probably pretty obvious but: Since the monsters came through a rift (the throat - I think they called it) between their dimension and ours. That was an actual location on the sea floor . . . couldn't we ( the humans ) have built a series of Bad-ass gun turret things...

    Just got home from watching this. I haven't read through this thread as I try to avoid spoilers or even hints. I will probably go through it now. Was a strong enough movie, but found the action scenes were too 'full' visually, which just made it confusing/hard too read. Just the high...

    Okay, just finished a transaction. After a long night of web research I was able to work out what amp to buy. I actually spent hours too, looking back. Following some of the advice given here and looking at all the options. I narrowed it down to the Blackstar amps. Then worked out that the...

    No kidding about that. Funny thing is here, in Australia, that network showing the Dome had the Simpson's movie on last weekend and were showing the ads for The Dome during the ad-breaks. They even had the Pop-up 'corner of the screen ads' during the Simpson's movie which showed a wide view...

    The Hobbit

    One of the most memorable moments in a cinema for me. There was a teenage couple sitting a few seats along from me, that Bilbo-monster face happened. The girl shrieked and was air-bourne in her chair. We all laughed for the next several minutes.

    That's true, the aging process is greatly slowed. To add to the conversation and to help cite info from the books ( not posting this as a correction of your post ) it's important to remember also that the process is also a corrupting process. A "fuller" example of the rings effect is seen...

    Re: the timeline of the LOTR books verses the movie. I read the LOTR books after having seen the movies. One of the big differences (timewise) is the time taken between Bilbo handing the ring over to Frodo and then how long Frodo waits before actually doing something to destroy it. There's no...

    Re: Kate Upton My 2 cents - She's got a lot going for her yes. But there will be a lot for her to gain if she would tone up a bit. I don't mean for her to simply loose weight as an answer, but to build the right muscle mass under her curves will help a lot. Spend some time on a stairmaster or...

    Well . . . I gotta explain that one a bit first: there is a good guitar store near me yes, but I doubt that I will be buying the amp from it, am hoping to save a bit by getting a 2nd hand one off Ebay, or even a new one from Ebay should be cheaper. And with that in mind, I wouldn't feel right...

    Saw this movie on the weekend (FYI - Dead Snow). Was okay, had some good moments, some not so good. Overall I'd recommend it. Odd thing was that in a gore filled horror Zombie bloodbath movie the bit that I thought was the most gross: Just text, but spoilered to avoid ruining the moment.

    Yeah was thinking already that the Marshall would be a bit too much. I realised that as I posted the previous message. Pretty obvious when I read back over what I wrote. As for the tone I'm looking for: music wise I like a wide range and I've picked up various songs that I can play so far...

    Just another question re: practice amps. Does anyone have any experience or opinions on the Marshall Class 5 combo? Is it loud, or do you need to run it loud to get a good sound out of it. Of the amps mentioned earlier I am sort of leaning towards the Orange tiny terror.

    300: Rise of an empire

    Yeah the original 300 was a really good movie, a good combination of styleandsubstance. But watching the trailer for the new movie it looks like style is the only winner. What annoyed me most watching the trailer was that there were so many shots that re-used ideas from the first film. Like...

    Can one of the guys who's seen this movie just do us a favor and tell us the 'big twist ending'. I remember a film reviewer who basically did just that for The Happening, to save people from having to watch it.

    The Hobbit

    Too many dragon experts in this thread!! Gotta say though I am getting negative impressions from the trailer. The riding down the river rapids in barrels and swishing at stuff with you sword has a 'Dragons' Lair' feel to it.
