It's like Scott Pilgrim but with actors.



Yes, Keanu is a better actor than Michael Cera

I would make a terrible movie critic, I actually liked a lot of "Bad" movies this year, The last airbender included.

Maybe it's because I know nothing about the lore behind the Manga, but I found it mind-numbingly enjoyable.

However, I think the most fun I had was going into the movie knowing it was Shamalamalamalan and knowing his style. I actually couldn't contain myself and even said (in the robot chicken voice) "What a twist!" at the end.

Good laughs were had by all.

I guess I really didn't see any "bad" movies this year.


Good:
Harry Potter
Toy Story 3

and as before mentioned: Scott Pilgrim vs the world. I never -NEVER- would have expected my favourite movie slot to be taken by a Michael Cera movie, but it quite honestly is a movie for nerds.

This was definitely a year of shit movies. Here's my list, although there are quite a few critically acclaimed movies that I've yet to see.

Good
-True Grit
-Social Network
-Kick Ass
-Get Low
-Inception
-Toy Story
-Yeardly

Bad
-Harry Potter 7.0
-Grown Ups
-Tron 2
-Nightmare on Elm Street
-Scott Pilgrim

Ugly
-Last Airbender
-Alice in Wonderland
-Burlesque

Inception and Kick Ass were the only ones I saw in the theater last year, I think. Kick Ass was pretty cool, but Inception('s fans) kinda annoyed me. I later saw Toy Story 3 on a plane, and I guess it was okay.

Edit: Oh, and I saw Scott Pilgrim at a NYE party. That was okay, too.

Simon Pegg was the creative force behind Spaced, Shaun of the Dead, the "Don't" trailer and Hot Fuzz. Edgar Wright just made it look good on film. I learned this by seeing Scott Pilgrim. Looked great, but wow, what a terrible film.


Well, it didn't have the same comedic sensibilities as his films with Simon Pegg, but I really enjoyed it. And if you've watched any of the making-of content on his films with Simon Pegg, he's definitely more involved in the creative process (writing, editing, etc), than you are giving him credit for.

This is very well done. I really enjoyed the Scott Pilgrim movie - though I have to admit it probably has a fairly narrow audience. *promote

thanks for the promote my friend.
sorry for the lateness ..just got back from vaca.

I had a very similar experience to the beginning of this video. I saw the trailer for Devil for the first time when in a crowded theater just before Scott Pilgrim. The entire crowd was silent during the trailer until "From the mind of M. Night Shyamalan" came across the screen. It was then the ENTIRE crowd groaned loudly, and then started to talk through the rest of the trailer, obviously losing all interest. It was pretty funny.

I really hate to do this.

And this is still the funniest of this genre that I have ever seen. Extremely well done.

Excellent taste.

I enjoy both the lazy comedies and the stuff that tries harder, is that bad in your opinion?

Also, do you watch Louie? Mr. C.K.'s new show is recommended (as well as the Arrested Development suggestion above).

What I meant by my statement was that Roger Ebert was especially harsh when critiquing dumb comedies, such as this film. I've read many of your statements about comedy sifts, and you rarely find anything funny. It's not a condemnation; merely an opinion.>> ^dannym3141:
If we're not allowed to review things unless we're professional reviewers, you better say the same to the other people who commented before me.


That's perfectly fair enough, i take it back.
You're right, i don't find many sifts funny. I'm not into boil-in-the-bag humour.. you know, x is a family man but he's got daughter y who's unruly, daughter x who's rock n roll, etc. etc. comedy ensues.
I like comedy that tries harder, where i can't predict every single damned punchline. Stuff like the office, extras. The big lebowski. mitchell and webb and peep show. Curb your enthusiasm. That kinda stuff.
I think the people who make sitcoms like friends, big bang theory are guilty of lazyness. They don't try hard enough for me and i can second guess them.
