End of Watch was a intense damn movie. I cannot believe I heard zip zero nada about this one. Somehow completely slipped under my radar, never saw a trailer, never heard of it, anything. Shaky camera/self shot views were throwing me off at first but it ended up being some good ****.

Highly recommend.

I saw dozens of previews for that movie. It looked good and I was planning on seeing it in the movies when it came out... then it finally did come out but I heard nothing about it. Online, word of mouth... nothing. So I forgot about the movie until just now. Hell, it's got 8/10 on IMDB, so it must have done something right.

Where'd you see it? Is it out on netflix or DVD already?

I checked this one out last night. I thought it was good and would give it 7.5/10.

The DVD can be found on the internet so I would assume the DVD release is on it's way soon. Though I can't find an official date anywhere.

The scene where he removed his upper jaw was awesome!

The Woman In Black, Solid creepiness and production value. The story was slightly dry in a few parts, but the simplicity made up for any lacking!

Looper

Wasn't as great as some friends (and general public) made it out to be, but still fun. There wasn't full blown plotholes, but there were some problems. Either way I enjoyed it a lot. Popcorn flick though, not a "instant classic". And the makeup for the 3rd Rock from the Sun kid was pretty crazy, but looked nothing like Bruce Willis haha.

Lawless

Was awesome. Though I've been on a prohibition kick for years now so I ate it up blindly. Was surprised to see Shia act fairly well in this, though I can't take his fake puffy eyed crying seriously when I've seen the same face in Michael Bay films. I only bring this up because he is the only reason I didn't see this sooner. But he wasn't an issue in any way at all. Great movie.

Maximum Conviction! Good, but Seagal needs to retire. Steve Austin could have easily been the lead in that. Seagal did have a few funny moments though.

Skyfall is outstanding in every way, quite possibly the best Bond film ever, in my opinion.

The entire cast is awesome and Bardem is one of the best Bond villians.

The only thing that sucked about Skyfall was that they turned Q into a goddamn hipster.

I also saw Skyfall. Very nice! Bad idea for the bad guy destroying Bond's precious car. I like the gift that's given to Bond at the end by the boss, paraphrasing... "Maybe this is her telling you to get a desk job" "No, just the opposite".

Does Skyfall or the bad guy get mentioned or is in any earlier Bond movies? I really liked his character.

Harold and Maude. Classic flick with dark humor.
