Re: Movie Reviews
Zone you hit the nail on the head. The first set are "Action" movies. The second are "War" movies. Big difference.
But you're still a dumbass tanker.

Re: Movie Reviews
I hate to admit it, but I enjoyed the movie. I could nit pick stuff all day long, but overall it was an enjoyable show with plenty of boom and bang. And come on... you can't tell me you didn't get just a little bit choked up at the memorial scene towards the end...

I know I got choked up, when they were beating that hot Colombian chic from CSI and I still didn't get to see her naked.

Re: Movie Reviews
"God Bless America" written and directed by Bobcat Goldtwaith, yes, him.
Probably the weirdest fucking movie I've ever seen, but still it did entertain me, I'm not sure what that actually says about me but fuck it.
About a likable middle aged guy that actually thinks a lot like a lot of us as far as stupidity in Hollywood and reality shows, lack of family values and every other fucked up thing on tv these days.
He turns into an 'active shooter' and it just takes off from there.
This is not a family movie, not even close, very vulgar language, very bloody scenes of violence and murder.
Enjoy it, don't say I didn't warn you.

Re: Movie Reviews
I watched it on Netflix when it first came out (straight to video) and I thought it sucked. This movie is a liberals view of what they think conservatives are like. They track down a character who is Bill O'Reilly and then shoot him for his views. I'm not a big of the big douche bag either, but they were over the top with that. Then they show tea party members beating up people and screaming in their faces at each chance. OK, name me a single instance of someone in the tea party assaulting someone. They gun down a bunch of the tea party.cams wrote:"God Bless America" written and directed by Bobcat Goldtwaith, yes, him.

So basically this is a liberal fantasy about how they would kill people they don't like, but they make a "conservative" do it for them.
There is a reason it went straight to video.

Re: Movie Reviews
They also pull up on the Westboro Baptist Church idiots and open up on those clowns, one of my favorite parts of the movie.
Liberal views or not, it's just entertainment to me. If I started looking for a political reasons or a conspiracy in every movie I watched I'd drive myself crazy. I enjoyed it, and I still hate commies.

Re: Movie Reviews
Netflixed "2016" and watched it tonight. This is an excellent insight into why Barack Obama leads the way he does. This is not a birth conspiracy movie, but a documentary using Obama's own books for source material. It traces his upbringing by his two fathers and their influence into what created the man that would be president.
It also gives a prediction of what America will be like in 2016 if Obama is re-elected.
Highly recommend it. See it before the election.

Stake Land (2010)
A surprisingly well done zombie-vampire/ post apocalyptic horror movie that has been on SyFy a few times. I have defiantly paid to see a lot worse at the theater.

Re: Movie Reviews
Concur. HH6 and I watched it over the WE. This is a truly chilling scenario. Although it confirmed what we thought, it also brought into focus his primary goals and why he has them. Even though both of us had read the book and discussed what it meant, we had failed to grasp the most serious implications.rgrokelley wrote:Netflixed "2016" and watched it tonight.

Tomorrow will be an historic watershed in US history. I am truly fearful for this country if the President is re-elected.
