Adapted from a book, not an original idea.

Nightmare Before Christmas is quality, but again monstrous-character-discovers-meaning-of-Christmas is hardly pushing the boundaries.



Not suggesting for one second that I don't enjoy watching Tim Burton films (Planet Of The Apes aside)

I'd say 'Ed Wood' is Burton's best work.

I really liked Sweeney Todd

The Batmans were both quality, as was Corpse Bride.

Saw The Expendables 2 in a refreshed state about 10 days ago dubbed into Mandarin, cos of everyone cracking up
and shouting at the screen, and the bits my mates translated made me think it was played for laughs.

Took some colleagues to see it in English after bigging it up

The batmans were good apart from Michael Keaton. I've got nothing against him but he just isn't batman

dark shadows is an amazing film you philistines

nvm

Think it's a toss up between that and Hamburger Hill.


Full Metal Jacket I've seen too many times and Apocalypse Now the 5hr whatever redux version pretty much killed me last time I tried to watch it in one go.

yer hamburger hill is also a classic ive never really liked full metal jacket..

quite like tigerland as well

how can you all be forgetting The Deer Hunter...

Coz there's a fucked up Nam to Streep ratio in that film.

fair point...

well on the topic of war movies i watched this for like the 6th time yesterday.

Apocalypse Now people. Buying it later this week. Should I go ahead and watch the extended/directors cut or just stick with Theatrical first? Any opinions?

Extended cut all the way.
The time he spends with the family is pretty important to the story imo.

Cool. Figured I'd go that route. Been kinda avoiding this movie til i could sit down an watch it on blu ray.

The ending is also more detailed in the extended version.

All about Dr Grant in that film

All about everything in Even Horizon.
I watch it every few weeks.

I prefer redux (the extended cut) but I'd recommend watching the theatrical cut first. I watched redux first and it made the theatrical cut feel a bit choppy. watch them so that one adds to the other rather than one takes away from the other.
