Top action/mind-bending movies

[Engert]

Looper had a great begining and a great end. The middle was a little boring. Too much dialouge.

Yeah bu the science stuff behind is what I found confusing

What exactly?

 

[Engert]

Anyone seen "The sound of noise". Pretty cool movie.
Different.

What exactly?

It's an inside joke about a mutual and former friend of Gahars and mine.

 

[Engert]

Aha. Ok.

Hey, have you seen the recent Mel Gibson movie called "Get the Gringo". Pretty awesome. Along the lines of "Payback"

 

[Engert]

How about God Bless America? Very entertaining movie for all those who are Tarantino fans.

I thought the Silent Hill movies sucked ass?

They do. I hear people go "Well it's cool to see the monsters in a movie" but you might as well just see the monsters in the fucking video games.

dont get it , did you cut n paste some imdb list .. thats one random genre mix u have there . Really enjoyed looper , was kinda gutted to read the story was meant to finish thereby not allowing pointless sequels . Although the basic concept is open to continuation with other characters the main story is over. Like the thought of it progressing though.

In the mind-bending category, I'd like to make mention of Primer
And since you've made mention of Tarantino flicks, I also like to toss Machete out there.

And then this is completely unrelated...but damn cool.

 

[pwsincd]

130 films and no Bond wtf. Skyfall is class.

 

[Engert]

Yes Primer was a good movie but too low-budget and it had that high-school feel. Generally a good movie.
Bond? Oh c'mon! It's the same old story with different actors.

You don't get any more mind-bending then Memento, Inception, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind or Being John Malkovich. Those are some of the highlights of mind-bending.

i wasnt inferring bond bends yer mind , but it fits in that random as fuck list the op posted .




typo!

 

[Engert]

i wasnt inferring bond bends yer mind , but it fits in that random as fuck list the op posted .

That list is not random. The ranking is random. It also says action or mind bending. Bond would fit in action. But it's boring action so it didn't make the list.
But i can throw it in there since Bond is probably a movie that is dear to you.

 

[pwsincd]

not dear to me at all , aside from its britishness , its just by far better than more than a handful of those movies in the list and deserves a place . a blind man on a galloping horse can see that.

 

[Engert]

Ah ok. Different taste.
Can you list some of your favorite movies pwsincd?

debbie does dallas

From a kid starwars (first 3) , love war movies , anything that tells a story.

The msyery around the first matrix was cool , the others although telling the story lost their appeal.

Espionage , anything that has a goverment cover up feel , im not majorly fussy , equally i can watch some mindless shite steven segal movie , or a chick flick with the mrs . Tbh most the films we watch together are scary haunting films , but they are getting to samey these days . Really enjoyed looper the other night , prometheous was good better 2nd time round . Would really love to see some really well made film of the back of a video game , maybe Halo with a proper gritty back story , not just all out kill the covenant . Basically m8 ill watch anything depends on the mood , but ill say the acting has to make it beleivable and not the cgi.

From your description it seems that we have similar taste. Not 100% but similar. Taste changes with time of course.
Good thing you mentioned Prometheus. It was the classic movie-mistakes-repeated-100-times. If you are on a different planet and you got a mamba looking creature looking at you, what do you do? Do you touch it? Do you make out with it? Or are you cautious and load your gun? I do the last one.

 

[pwsincd]

id make out with it , its gonna kick yer ass anyways . love not war my friend.

Ok, i guess this is where we're different.
Have you seen the Avengers? I'd say that's a good popcorn movie that it guaranteed to never leave you disappointed.

 

[pwsincd]

yeah i have , i like the ironman films more . World War Z sounds interesting , the guy that wrote toystory3 and the new hunger games is the new writer for starwars 7 , not a tragedy i guess.
