Doc Shadow Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Re: What Have You Watched Recently? Sherlock Holmes: A Game in Shadows Interesting. But honestly I still prefer Jeremy Brett's Holmes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FenrisUlf Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Re: What Have You Watched Recently? Well, I finally saw Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, and I did like it. Though it was a head-scratcher for me with the people in the film complaining about the East India Company killing pirates (and others); what about all the people that the pirates killed (none of whom we saw onscreen, but still?). It feels all the odder to me given that I just read a book on modern piracy, written by someone who's experienced it first-hand, and it was downright creepy reading.

They'ere thinking peg legs and eye-patches, not AK-47s and speedboats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. MID-Nite Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Re: What Have You Watched Recently? Heh' date=' am watching the original Japanese release of [i']Godzilla Raids Again[/i] as I type. I love kaiju flicks, but Godzilla Raids Again is a pretty bad film. The very epitome of "quickie sequel"(being released barely six months after Gojira). Considering how much better Rodan turned out about a year later....GRA is remembered mostly for the introduction of the monster vs monster format.

The answer to most questions in Lost is magic. Often mysterious, unknowable magic. Lost seemed to pretty much be made up as it went along, and certain plot elements often seemed to be forgotten between seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very stubborn. The acting I would have to say is above average, and the characterization is pretty good. However, the plot was causing me too many issues. My wife said it does get better, (she's done with season 2), but Bobb, our hospitality cat says it still sucks.
