Finally saw Lords Of Dogtown all the way through. What a great movie. I thought Emile Hirsch as Jay Adams was the best of the skaters, but Heath Ledger as Skip Engblom was great as well.

I really enjoyed this movie being a skateboarder myself in high school. Have you seen Dogtown and Z-Boys it's a Documentary about the pioneering 1970s Zephyr skating team. With interviews with real guys from the Zephyr team. A good documentary worth checking out.

Yeah the one Peralta himself did. No I haven't. It'll be on my list of films to get to, though.

Lords had a good soundtrack and some neat cameos, too.

Return of The Incredible Hulk - Made for TV movie from the Bixby era featuring Thor.

Trial of The Incredible Hulk - Also a Bixby TV movie, but also featuring Daredevil.

They're both fun movies that I highly recommend for comic fan or general fans of the old Hulk TV series.

Just saw Moonrise Kingdom. I mean, if you like Wes Anderson you'll like it, if you don't you won't. His movies are so stylistically unique. Its got the same quirky characters, some off-kilter humor as his earlier movies, but also a very cute love story so its probably good for the whole family if you're into his type of stuff.

Also went to see Django Unchained. Same thing as I said with Wes Anderson applies to Quentin Tarantino pretty much. The first two hours I thought were brilliant. Great characters, witty dialogue that wraps around you in that Tarantino style, and really good acting. The last 40 minutes is just one extended epic bloodbath of people getting shot over and over again, mostly in slow motion. Personally thought that was a bit overdone. Nothing against violence but, in this movie the story just stopped for violence to go on for almost an hour. Still worth the price of admission. I'd probably buy it and watch 2 hours whenever I wanted to watch it.

I bet most people on here have never seen it. Let me say it this way: I won't recommend it, but I'm glad it exists.

Permit me to just post one small scene.

Did you know most of them are in the movie as cameos? The real Skip Engblom is the security guard that Heath Ledger "bribes" with the fake 100$ bill and the real Jay Adams is at the party at Emil Hirsches house and he hands him a bag with booze in it.

Gone Baby Gone

I loved The Departed, Mystic River, and The Town, so I figured I'd check this one out. It did not disappoint. I'd have to say The Departed and Mystic River were better, but this was real solid. I don't wanna spoil anything so I will just ask this to those who have seen it. Do you think Casey Affleck's character was right?

That's funny I saw a video recently somewhere online where this couple who picks up hitchhikers in California and interviews them picked up Jay Adams, they didn't know who he was of course, pretty interesting...he's just hitchhiking through California with a skateboard I think and no luggage. lol

No. In glad you brought this up as it was a discussion in an ethics class I had recently.

The movie bugs me. Not because it's bad it's really good, but the fact that Patrick took the law into his own hands to make himself feel better (killing the pedophile), yet turns in the police captain for breaking the law to save a child.

Hypocrisy to say the last.I'm glad his chick left him.

Btw Affleck was excellent in that movie.

Yeah I definitely thought he was wrong as well. I loved the part at the end where he comments on the little girl's doll and she corrects him on her name (meaning the mom didn't even have the doll's name right). As the movie went on I was thinking to myself, I really don't like these people at all, and I don't even think they deserve to get their kid back. I was wondering where the movie was gonna go that would remedy that for me. Job well done.

I'm curious, how did most people in the class feel about it?
