^Home Alone is the shit.




8/10 - Surprisingly really good. It may introduce nothing new to court room/crime thriller, but it is certainly an intriguing and entertaining watch.

Did you just watch a movie and wanted to discuss it and let us know what you thought of it? Well, here is the thread to do just that!

For me:



7/10 - Pretty good. Foxx and DiCaprio were really good in their roles, but I had two major complaints; first, the blood was excessive at times and was massively unrealistic (there'd be like waves of the stuff flying out of people) and second, towards the end (if you've seen the movie, you may know what I'm talking about), the shooting was insanely action-movie esque. But, aside from that, it was a nice way to spend an afternoon. Very informative and entertaining.

The thing you have to realize with Tarentino is he has 2 types of movies, movies where they take place in the "Real universe" and those that take place in a "Fake Universe" pretty much the way he puts it, the ones in the fake universe would be the movies that the people in his real universe would watch. It's really really fucking intricate lol. This one was supposed to be over the top because it's one of the fake universe ones.

Real Universe Movies
Pulp Fiction
Reservoir Dogs
Jackie Brown

Fake Universe movies
Kill Bill 1&2
Grindhouse
Inglorious Basterds
Django Unchained
True Romance

Most of his movies are linked by a lot of little details. IE: Mr Blonde (Michael Madsen) in Reservoir Dogs' character name is Vic Vega who is Vincent Vega from Pulp Fiction's brother (John Travolta)

Mia Wallace (Uma Thurman) in Pulp Fiction talks about a failed TV show pilot to Vince while they're sharing dinner, she said she played in a pilot for Fox Force 5, a show about 5 girls who were all lethal (A bit of a Charlies Angels knockoff) and it didn't get picked up as a TV show, however with deeper thinking there were 5 girls the most lethal girl in the world with a knife (Uma Thurman/Mia Wallace in Kill Bill)
a Blonde woman, a black woman, an Asian Woman, and a French Woman. All 4 of which were targets in the Kill Bill franchise. (Pretty much confirmed by Tarentino that Kill Bill is a loose film adaptation of "Fox Force 5" played out as a movie instead of a TV Series)

Quentin always does things like that. So yes the blood was over the top but it was supposed to be because it was "A movie that the guys in Pulp Fiction would go see" It's really fucking crazily detailed lol.

Yea, I've never seen a Tarantino movie before this one, so I obviously had no idea (though I want to see Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, and Inglorious Basterds). For the movie on its own, however, there is no question that the blood was excessive. I don't necessarily mind blood, but the shit was crazy man.

I change my answer. Went and saw Hangover Part III yesterday afternoon. Fucking hilarious just like the first two. Loved it.
