Movies and TV

[Matty]

Gonna go see Gravity this weekend. Bullock/Clooney is a HUGH turnoff but I saw the trailer at the theater and I'd already decided it was a must-see.

Bullock

It does look intense though

It always amazes me that they can use exactly same title on a movie such as Rush.

That doesn't amaze me. Some common stuff is bound to come up over and over in movies, songs, TV, whatever, especially if it's just a single word. There is just so much stuff out there that things have to start repeating.

The odd thing to me was that they couldn't call that movie from earlier this year The Butler because there was some damn silent movie from the 20's (or whatever) by that name. So they ended up calling it Lee Daniels' The Butler.

Why one and not the other?

Not taking the woman on the bike, right?

 

[Mudcat]

what are your favorite shows muddy?

All-time? A lot of the usual suspects:

The Wire
The Sopranos

Six Feet Under
Breaking Bad
Deadwood
Boardwalk Empire

Mad Men season 1 would be right up near the top but for the whole run of the show, more down here.


On the comedy side

South Park

Politics, my guess. Depends who'd it'd piss off or maybe who'd get sued (or if anyone would).

 

[Matty]

Not taking the woman on the bike, right?

Not while she's carrying my unborn son. But I'll get her a helmet and jacket next year.

I hated Cloud Atlas so much. Ugh.

On a good roll with awesome shitty movies right now.

Roadhouse followed by Bring It On: In It To Win It on consecutive nights, sprinkling in a couple episodes of Miami Vice first season.

Woowee! Lawd have mercy.

MrsM wanted to order tonight a new release from the HBO ON DEMAND list and asked me for a recommendation? Anyone have any for me to suggest? Going through that whole remote process with the TV confuses me!

 

[bacon]

Argo is on Demand should be free!

Safe House too, but nowhere near as good as Argo!

 

[Bread]

Have you ever gotten into Boardwalk Empire? Must CTV.

 

[MrMonkey]

TY but saw both and enjoy them lots! The actor opposite Denzel showed his action character potential!

 

[MrMonkey]

Have you ever gotten into Boardwalk Empire? Must CTV.

Not yet! More into movies than shows!

 

[Blitty]

Rush was bleh.


6.1

The Trent Foyet episode was just on. One of my favorites Muddy. Whats your rating?

 

[Mudcat]

You talkin' bout Trent Boyett?

Good episode. Anytime people are being set on fire and peed on ---> my kind of entertainment.

 

[reno cool]

ah Boyett, that sounds better. So many great moments: 2nd degree nipple twisters, the yes yes ending : great social commentary. That Trent is such a bad ass

Muddy, your post scares me! Saw WWZ movie last night (that was MrsM choice) where Brad Pitt quickly had to cut off the Israeli soldier women's hand to save her from becoming a zombie ..... I know Bread can drink me into a stupor ......wouldn't mind getting water splashed on my face to wake me up but if no water is handy ......
