Have only read a synopsis for both, but quite frankly The Road scares the shit out of me because it represents a possible future, and I have a son about that age. -
<p>This Desolation of Smaug review at The Onion is gold:</p>

Riddick and Drinking Buddies were both pretty average.<br><br>
M4L, Katie Sackhoff and Olivia Wilde get their girls out briefly side on at 57 and 37 mins respectively....not enough to make the movies any better -
<p>Olivia Wilde already got hers out in "Alpha Dog" they were ok, but nothing great. I would still hit it, hard</p>
-
<p>watched Dredd last night. it was ok, plenty violent, too much slow-motion shit in it though (yes yes i know, i mean aside from the obvious bits). Lena Headey picked the wrong movie to try the oscar-bait "hot chick made to look ugly" role. </p>

<p>Hobbit, one of the most disappointing movies I have seen this year.<br><br>
Added in unnecessary crap (Elf/dwarf love triangle WTF), minimized The Murkwood journey and also. Beorn's character.<br><br>
Mind you, Smaug was shit hot!</p>

<p> </p>
<p>Pretty much how I found it. I actually enjoyed the 1st movie more. The Elf/Dwarf love thing is fu*ken ridiculous. I also didn't picture Beorn looking like they had in the movie. He's supposed to be a bear of a man, not some lean Scandinavian. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Agree about the dragon. I never expected it to look that good.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I don't believe Jackson and co should've made these movies. Would have been better to get new blood on the project I reckon.</p> -

<p>Gimli seemed kinda infatuated with Galadriel in the last series, and unless I'm mistaken, Aragorn hooked up with Arwen, so there's a lot of inter-species perversion going on in Middle Earth.</p> -

<p>Wasn't that actually the plan? Jackson didn't want to compete with his own LOTR legacy, hence the directing initially going to del Toro before constant delays saw him leave?</p> -

<p>It was totally the plan. And without Jackson & Weta, it likely wouldn't have gotten made. When del Toro departed, the entire project was in limbo, and managers of actors would not commit to the project without a director. Jackson accepted the position to ensure the project didn't collapse. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Btw, have you seen the Smaug design artwork that was going to be del Toro's version? </p>

<p>That's a dragon?!</p> -
<p>Special Forces; Diane Kruger and Djimon Hounsou</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Enjoyed this, it would be classed as a foreign film with it needing subtitles for most of the film unless you are fluent in French</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Kruger is a war reporter who gets kidnapped in Pakistan, cue the Special Forces head in to rescue...seemed to be some realistic scenes along with some usual BS ones</p> -
<p>you had me at "Diane Kruger"</p>
-
<p>I watched Runner Runner last night. It wasn't very good. Has some Justin Timberlake and Ben Affleck in it and a story about an online gambling mogul/crook - I actually like both actors and they weren't the problem with it. The story was just shit. The tension just didn't feel real.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>M4L - no boobies on display but the actress in it was Gemma Arterton who is fairly attractive.</p> -
<p>Gemma Arterton is hot, but has the acting ability of a bench top</p>
-
<p>Rachel Weisz is fucking hot. I would cut off two fingers of my left hand for 10 naked minutes</p>

<p>Rachel Weisz got hotter as she got older .... I didn't think much of her until I saw The Constant Gardener, which since this is a movie thread I thought was a disappointing movie but I had just read the book.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Now, M4L, I hope you mean real life naked minutes and not movie minutes, because I'm pretty sure she was naked in Stealing Beauty and I don't want you to lose some fingers. </p>
