I have recently watched Sherlock Holmes too. I'm not a fan of the original characters/story etc, but I found the movie interesting and funny 8so who cares if it has almost nothing to do with the original concept :winkiss:).
Last night I watched Decameron Pie which is one of the worst films I have ever watched. I hate the fact that they took a masterpiece of my country's literature and turned it into something that awful.
I'm really looking forward Nine instead, because I have always been a fan of Fellini (and this film is largery inspired by 8½) and I really want to see how this movie is (except for the fact that Daniel Day-Lewis can't be compared to Marcello Mastroianni :ph34r:)

[quote name='Marie' post='273238' date='Jan 17 2010, 12:14 AM']I don't mind TL;DR at all (which is probably obvious), but it would not be all-together responsible of me to post everything I want to say here, LOL. I don't want to be the first person to reach a character limit in replies, lulz. Saying that, I clearly disagree quite a bit, especially where the characters themselves are concerned. While I will admit the story itself is somewhat reaching as far as fitting squarely into the universe Doyle's novels and stories created, the characters are written and depicted so close to the source material that you can basically mirror them off of one-another. Before I ramble on and get a talking to from Wife, I do love discussing things like this, but without posting spoilers, LOL, this is obviously not the best place to do so. I'll move it over to LJ, for lack of a better forum, of communication - I've had enough people make various arguments against the movie that I can justify it to myself, haha.

To get back on topic, I watched Sherlock Holmes again today, unsurprisingly enough, and will be partaking of Parnassus tomorrow, before they remove it from theaters.[/quote]
Haha, I think we'll just have to agree to disagree, because I don't think I'll ever accept those two people as Holmes & Watson (especially Watson). And I'm not the first Doyle reader who thinks the characters in the movie are completely deformed from the originals, either. But anyway, my other problem is that I didn't think the film was really good at all. If it had been, I would have gladly enjoyed it even though, well, those are not Holmes & Watson. In any case, I'm not even such a big fan of the books.

By the way, I wouldn't expect much from Parnassus =/ I thought it was somewhat half-cooked. I don't know if Heath Ledger's death had anything to do with the final product being so... incongruent, but it was certainly underwhelming. He was quite good in it, though (excellent accent!)

And I watched The Time Traveler's Wife... I don't know why. Jesus, what an empty (and slightly disturbing in its wrongness) movie.

Amores Perros, which is again, for Film Studies. I watched it last year but given the time inbetween, we had to watch it again to actually study it, haha. It's actually fairly good. :flower:

Iron-Man 2! And because of that awesome film and no I did NOT see the first one -- another of life's regrets I am a new convert to the sexiness that is Robert Downey Jr. And to the Pepperony!love. Gwyneth makes a great Pepper, yes. I love their chemistry together. They have a very tangible sexual tension you just want to get a knife and slice through. :wub:

I absolutely LOVED the story. Makes you think about the economics and politics of world peace -- it's not just a pretty concept we throw around in the question and answer portions of local beauty pageants -- and about national security and the army and how men and women are willing to give up their lives for the sake of peace. (I had a cousin who died in Afghanistan, so.)

People are saying the first one's better, so I better get that on DVD. Watching again with some of my friends tomorrow. Can't wait. :flower:

Saw Alice in Wonderland a few days ago... not sure if I liked it, or hated it. Any way, as usual Helena Bonham Carter was lovey and people tell me there are movie where Johnny Depp plays normal characters but I haven't seen any. And I don't think What's Eating Gilbert Grape counts. :flower:

Tony Stark is AMAZING indeed! Only RDJ can play his sexy badass egotistical brilliant self. :drools: Because of the film, I'm an Iron Man convert. I have to admit I don't know Rhodey in the comics -- I'm only getting to know them now through the fics, hehe. The only Marvel series I truly followed were The X-Men (I still do!) and Spider-Man. :hug:

I have to see that movie still! My friends fell in love with Ms. Bonham Carter (and with the entire production -- it wasn't a child's fairy tale any longer, that's for sure). And lol at Johnny Depp playing normal characters. That's true, I am yet to encounter him as just a regular guy in films.

:wub: She was sooo kickass! It's kinda funny that both ScarJo and hubby Ryan Reynolds are in Marvel franchises. :whistles:

Was the first Iron Man movie better? Everyone keeps saying so, but I was blown away by this second one. So I can't wait to get my hands on the DVD copy of first movie. :flower:

Last movie I watched was Avatar (finally, lol).  It was amazing!  Really wish I had been able to see it in 3-D.  I've already rewatched the dvd twice.  :flower:

I really enjoyed Date Night, but then again I'm deeply in love with Steve Carell, so I don't know lol.

I liked the second one better =D I've seen it at the IMAX twice now and I really can't wait for the DVD~

That was the last movie I've seen in cinemas. At home, I watched Fantastic Four (to continue with the superhero trend) which was quite horrid and unfunny. And I tried to see Valentine's Day and failed. Ugh =/

Yay for IM2 fans, haha. :dance: I can't wait for the DVD either! :D

Last movies seen recently (over at HBO): The Hulk (starring Edward Norton), Forgetting Sarah Marshall (written by and starring HIMYM's Jason Segel), and Can't Hardly Wait (90's teen flick, which incidentally also had Jason Segel as an extra).

Legion - which, to me, was good, but it could have been better minus the bogus characters - and Sorority Row, which was a waste of an hour and a half I will never get back. :D I still love Rumer Willis though! x:
