Most Underrated Movies?

I don't hate Avatar. I actually really enjoyed it. It's a great theatrical experience with breathtaking visuals. But it's not groundbreaking cinema in terms of story, theme or character. It's also not one of the best movies ever (IMDb whatchoo talkin about) Agreed on The Talented Mr. Ripley and The ...

Thoughts on how Brad Bird will do directing live action for the first time? I love the animated stuff though!

Most Underrated Movies?

Never let me go... is a film that the masses haven't watched yet and need to. +10000000000 (Can I do that?) I love this film! All the performances are fantastic! It's criminal how few people have seen this. I actually skipped school one day to go see it, since the only theatre it was playing at was...

Most Underrated Movies?

I personally think Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is criminally underrated. Gene Wilder gives one of the best comedic performances of all time, the production value is top notch and its just plain fun. Yes! Agreed completely! I hated what Burton did with it :( But I love the original! I alwa...

Favorite Film Websites?

I'll definitely check out filmjunk.

Aww my post didn't submit... Well basically I read IGN casually, but mostly for the comics section (yep, I'm a huge nerd, but who here isn't?), and even though I'm not necessarily in love with the RT system, I still do check it out quite a bit.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)

The thing with Ebert is that his reviews are so personal they aren't necessarily a good judge of overall quality. I pretty much read Ebert because he is a terrific writer. pretty much. he is my favorite critic but I'm totally different from him. I try to be as objective as I can while he is the opp...

Favorite Nolan's u-45 Actors

Christian Bale. As much as I respect Ledger... people should admit that if he didn't act as the Joker in Batman he'll be nowhere near Bale... but anyway... I admit that. Same. So my number one person would obviously be Bale. I was so glad when he wont that lovely Oscar :D Even though I kind of hate...

Jealous! I haven't seen this in such a long time! Hitchcock is one of my favorite directors, and Jimmy Stewart is one of my favorite actors.

If this topic already exists, please lock or delete this thread. I ran a quick search and didn't find anything though. -Empire of the Sun -One of my all time favorites, and a fantastic performance from a VERY young Bale! He's adorable! But it's fantastic and really underrated :( It's quite the journ...

Favorite Film Websites?

Not official movie sites (i.e. thedarkknightrises.com) For me? -IMDb (obviously) -Slashfilm -Collider But the one I really want to talk about is macguffinpodcast.com (The Macguffin). They've got great 'top 5' videos, a FANTASTIC weekly podcast, and lots of reviews for both current and past movies. Y...
