Re: The Top Twenty Films of 2016

I agree with bowfinger. I often haven't heard of a lot of the favorites by year's end because a lot of films are released very late where I live. But this is the first time I can recall not having heard of most of the films on the list (14!). Seems a bit meaningless.

Re: Quality Modern-Day Scandinavian Movies

Being Norwegian, I end up seeing a fair amount of Norwegian films even though I kind of try to avoid them because I'm not hugely interested in Norwegian cinema. Here are some of my favorites in recent years though: Great: Detektiv Downs (2013) Kyss meg for faen i helvete (2013) Naboer (2005) (YMMV o...

Re: Is Hollywood in the Dark Ages right now?

Every big movie now is almost exactly 140 minutes long. It's insane. I think the idea is that it's long enough to feel epic but just short enough that it's not too boring with all that talking nonsense. I work at a cinema, can confirm. Literally every blockbuster-type film is 2 hours 20 minutes, pa...

Re: PSI Problem

My PSI on The Other Woman is 2. This is based on 3 other rankings, where the average is tier 2.0. Tier 1 for me is a rating of 0, tier 3 for me is a rating of 25. Shouldn't tier 2 then be ~12?

Re: Is Hollywood in the Dark Ages right now?

An interesting question so I decided to crunch the numbers on my rankings. Before I get to that, my initial thought was that yes, Hollywood-movies in general hold a lower standard today than they did 10, 20, 30 years ago. I use a five-point rating system. 100/75/50/25/0.

Re: "Rio 2"

And if political information is as hard to find on the rest of them as it is for Emma Stone, I'm not sure we can write them off as known liberals anyway. The only thing I was able to find on her was that she reportedly said she's for gay rights. Hell, I'm for that too, equal rights for all . I did ...

Re: "Rio 2"

On a semi-related note, Stewball, I'm surprised you're into those women, most of whom are known liberals and by your definition presumably "wackos". :roll:

Re: "Rio 2"

Why is every thread eventually about which women are hotter. This is getting bizarre now.

Rio 2? More like Avatar 2. Jesus Christ.

Re: Dallas Buyers Club

Just an interjection, I don't find Christina Hendricks to be all that attractive and I don't know what the fuss is about with her even, she's certainly not unattractive but yeah. I'd rather have Mila Kunis and that's coming from someone who finds most Russian/Ukrainian women unattractive, if we're g...
