<p>Lawrence is a funny one. i don't reckon she looks all that hot in her movies, but you see her flashed up for a premier or something, with her tits all hanging out the front of her dress, and she looks fantastic. </p>

<p>I find her face to be chubby, it probably isn't but looks like it on the screen.</p> -

<p>Thats kind of my point, seems pretty normal in interviews too.</p>
<p>She didn't look chubby in her dancing gear in the Silver linings playbook to be fair.</p> -

<p>Definitely not. She's not one of my favourites, but she looked good in that dancing gear.</p> -

<p>Golan and Globus are The Shit. Shaking hands with Her Majesty QEII, fucksakes! I well remember about a year after that doc was made driving with some friends in the Catskills in New York and the car broke down. We had to get the thing towed, and hitched a ride to a KOA camp to pitch a tent and stay the night. It was nothing like any campground I'd ever seen in NZ. When it went dark they dropped a sheet and screened a video of Invasion A. About 300 campers showed up to watch (!!!) completely absorbed, some drinking beer and getting Ronald Reagan jingo war fever. My buddies were hippies, they were freaked-out and wanted to escape, but we couldn't, so we smoked some weed in the bushes, stayed at the back watching the movie and laughed our asses off.</p>

<p>The scene with Aaron Spelling is funny. The guy's a billionaire eating off a paper plate with plastic flatware. That knife looks like it's not even making a dent in his lasagna.</p> -
<p>Watched Prisoners (Terence Howard, Jake Gyllenhall and Hugh Jackman)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Pretty decent watch (too long though) if not a little predictable - Jackman and HOward daughters are abducted, and the main suspect is set free, but Jackman isnt willing to let it go as it appears the cops arent doing enough.</p> -
Man of Steel - never been a superman fan, but enjoyed this one (except it was far too long) pretty impressive cast if not long cameos in parts, assume this is likely to be the start of a series of them?

<p>Thats really sad, most of his movies were pretty cheesy but a lot of fun. He was in Shark men on the National geographic channel too, he had an interest in marine biology .</p> -

Yep, sequel is confirmed and they are well down the track with development. Rumours about Wonder Woman turning up too, which makes sense as those three are featured in some of the best stories in the comics. <br><br>
They also want to follow the Marvel lead and get a Justice League movie happening. Can't see them being as successful as all the Marvel movies though, the consistency between Ironman, Captain America, Thor and the The Avengers movies is pretty unique. I'd expect the DC equivalent to follow the mess of the Hulk movies. -
X-Men: First Class was on TV the other night and I finally got the TiVo to myself to sit down with it.<br /><br />Really liked it, and while I'll say that about pretty much anything that involves Rose Byrne in lingerie, I thought the journey of Magneto was fascinating. Fassbender is a fucking gun, though I thought McAvoy was a bit light as Xavier.<br /><br />Bacon was great at the start as the psycho German scientist but got weaker as the movie went on I thought.

<p>no, she fucking didn't. Even in the directors cut of Troy, when everyone else is nude (Diane Kruger i fucking love you, why the fuck did you marry Pacey?) she still managed to keep herself covered. Stop taking yourself seriously (i thought she was fucking hot in Damages, but i bet if you met her, you would notice she is tiny with a massive head). </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I thought First Class was very meh. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I watched Jack Reacher last night. What a pile of shit. Terrible plot, a fucking shit main character (seriously, an invincible ex-military badass who is also a genius? give me a break) that Cruise completely failed to pull off (listening to him trying to sound tough was hilarious). Zero chemistry between the main characters, and even Robert Duvall reprising his role of Harry Hogge (i guess NASCAR and gun ranges would share a lot of clientele) made no fucking sense. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>[spoiler]seriously, why would a group of people decide to help a dude being chased by an entire city's police force? that made no fucking sense at all![/spoiler]</p> -

<p>Add in the fact Reacher is meant to be 6'5" and it's cause for complete suspension of disbelief.</p>

<p>Only if you read the books and then decide that the movie has to be an exact copy. Do you complain that Morgan Freeman isn't a ginga Irishman in Shawshank Redemption?</p>
