Secret Ninja Movie Club (aka what have you watched lately)

Pi is borderline sci-fi, but it could just as well be argued to be a perfectly realistic film about mental illness*.

Brazil is amazing.

Dark Star

And, thank you. Can we have a subsection for really fucking good comedy sci-fi? Pickings are slim..

*or as parson might say, "wizards".

[Sonika]

Perks Of Being A Wallflower


Fucking sick movie, really well done. Doesn't hurt that Emma Watson is the most beautiful lady alive

Would watch again

[parson]

'The skin I live in' is a really good film, wouldn't want to explain too much about it- but it's unsettling and well worth watching.

The Man from Earth is great as well, same kinda vein and sci fi as fuck.

Sci fi as fuck? Really?

[parson]

That's like saying what if god was one of us, just a stranger on a bus, is sci fi

[parson]

Man from earth is more like sunset limited kinda movie

[leyenda]

how do you feel about 'paths of glory'?

I'm yet to see barry lyndon & a few others. got lyndon sitting on my shelf but haven't gotten round to it yet.

Barry Lyndon is along with 2001 and Tarkovsky's The Mirror one of the most stunning looking films I've seen. Probably my second favourite of Kubrick's.

@joeki: you should check out La Jetée if you like 12 Monkeys. It's the original short film that 12 Monkeys is based on.

[noam]

[ La Jetée.

pretty good

funny, dark, thriller basically

cloud atlas

[parson]

I had a hard time paying attn to cloud atlas. tried watching later and got bored and didn't finish. didn't know it was gonna be so much.

[EliteLennon117]

I enjoyed it, (*possible spoiler*) although when they went to the post apocalyptic scene I thought I had gone crazy and couldn't understand English anymore when Hanks started talking. Also when that one dude killed himself some guy left the theater crying.

[parson]

I should go to a real theater more often

[joeki]

cloud atlas, meh.

[mIrReN]

booooooring

[hifi]

[sigbowls]

old yeller 2013 watching a movie from 1957

[Devry_Kaneda]

Watched singing in the rain last night. Easily my favorite musical.

[magma]

After several recommendations on here over the years... very good indeed. Beautiful cinematography.

[aspect-dubz]

Loved it. The main theme song has been stuck in my head all day.

[vishes]

Gangs Of New York. Such an amazing film, never gets old.

Daniel Day Lewis' performance is so fucking good. This and There Will Be Blood are fantastic because of him.

[joeki]

gangs of NY: a lot of good gets undone by Cameron Diaz.
There Will be Blood: awesome.
