Anyone else a fan of music documentaries? I'm watching 'Under Great White Northern Lights' right now and I'm loving it.

An Indians site. Nothing groundbreaking.

I will save you guys the venom-esque link-whoring, especially since it is not relevant here.

I gotta check that one out as well as It Might Get Loud. The Doors one, When People Are Strange is awesome.

i've seen the doors one. awesome.

the last waltz is obviously a must watch

if anyone knows a good pink floyd one let me know. also The Wall movie is pretty sick. I can't imagine a band doing that anymore

I've owned The Wall for a couple of years but I'm waiting to watch it when I get my hands on some...but yeah Dub, you rarely see bands making movies with their songs anymore like Zeppelin did with The Song Remains the Same. We need more trippy #$$% in 2011.

There have only been two thing i have ever watched on shrooms. The Wall and 2001 a space odyssey. Both scared the crap out of me. 2001 was especially intense. I don't totally recommend it.

anyone ever see the music video do the evolution by peral jam? that was some serious @$!+



anyone know how to embemmed?

I'll keep that in mind if I could ever get my hands on them. And Dub you gotta use the old embed code to embed on here, there's an option to choose it when you click to embed on YouTube.

Saw it last night...still working out how I felt about it. Magneto from Basterds killed it, like everyone said he would.

It's in this weird place where...the director did such a great job, you couldn't tell they made him rush the hell out of the movie...but it's so damn rough around the edges, with the music at times, the writing and just the cg and direction sometimes. Made me cringe. It reminds me of Star Trek. 


Things I loved about it



Spoiler [+]
-Magneto vs. the cruiseliner
-Magneto in Argentina in that Inglorious Basterds/Kill Bill 2 bar scene
-Shaw and Azazel attacking the CIA
-What Shaw did to Darwin
eek.gif


-"Now go get me some ice."
-Emma Frost faking it with that general
laugh.gif

-Rose Byrne in lingerie
devil.gif


-Rebecca Romijn
eek.gif
smokin.gif
... even if she is startin to look like Stifler's mom
-The submarine (reactor room, all of it)
-The coin (hearing the same speech Shaw gave him. Knowing that he was giving Prof X an ultimatum, free this monster or let him die.
eek.gif
smokin.gif
)
-Jennifer Lawrence J's
devil.gif


-Magneto and Prof. X bromance. I ain't mad. (breaking Emma out to 'fill the void in his life')
laugh.gif


-When young Holocaust-y Magneto is wreckin Shaw's Nazi slaughterhouse and he's just screamin...at the end he's like ".......ein!" And all I could think was...Nein is "no" in German...that's the same damn scene as Revenge of the Sith. Director got jokes.
laugh.gif


-Wolverine, "Go %!%% yourselves."


Things I didn't

-Darwin
tired.gif
...this movie is a metaphor about the mistreatment of minorities...and all it does is mistreat it's minorities and women.
indifferent.gif
ohwell.gif

-"...be enslaved." *Cut to only black mutant* *Hear audience groan* ...Director got jokes.

-Angel was stupid in as many ways as possible

-Mystique, "Mutant and proud." 
laugh.gif


-Jennifer Lawrence...I think her character will be better later, but I REALLY wish they would've casted her as Emma Frost

-January Jones. I hate you. Get out of any movie I ever want to watch again. You're bad in the bad way.
eyes.gif

-Angel vs. Banshee was worse than Iceman vs. Pyro or Deadpool vs. Wolverine
30t6p3b.gif


-Shaw still shaking when he should be frozen
nerd.gif
Even Heroes could do that right.

-Getting their nicknames....ehhhhhh
-Picking sides?.....ehhhhhhhhhh

-Thinking about what Vaughn could've made if this movie came out in August or November

-X3: The Last Stand, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, letting either one exist

It kinda didn't make sense to me, how Erik put on the helmet...like I get where it came from, but not the jump from 'I was in the Holocaust'...to 'I might as well start one of my own.' Isn't he just wearing that gold Nazi coin on his head now? Taking orders from the rage inside of him and not letting that 'serene' voice in (Xavier)?

That just semantics. This movie isn't as smooth and seamless as X2, but it reminded me of Watchmen with more heart and real action. Watchmen is a better made movie, but this has everything Watchmen was missing badly. It looked and felt like a comic book. You saw it when they went to panels, a lot of their framing, that shot when Emma blocked Xavier's power. It felt like the perfect blend of what Ang Lee and 1st Hulk thought it was doing and what doesn't look completely ******ed in movies.

A part of me still thinks X2 was better, because...cmon...Wolverine, Cyclops, Pyro, Iceman, that Nightcrawler opening, Mystique in full effect, Magneto breaking out, Wolverine. That's not fair.
laugh.gif
But I do think, the next one could be better. All this needed was some polish on that script and a little more work on the cg, and it'd be the best comic movie I've seen. A year is the shortest time a movie like this could get made, but that's how long they had for this, so I'd be really hyped for another one in a couple.

I just hope they shatter Emma Frost in the opening credits.
