Happy Face 29 Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 Blades of Glory. Was it any good? I really fancy seeing that. It was funny. I don't really think Will Ferrell is the legend that others do. I've hardly seen any of his films. Anchorman was ok but Night at the Roixbury was shit. This was as much fun as Anchorman though.

Ferrell is the new Adam Sandler. Harsh, but potentially on the money... I because I think the world could really do without 1 Adam Sandler, let alone someone to take up his mantle. as an aside I went to school with a guy called Adam Saddler, who went on to be on the books with Man U before becoming a coach with Newcastle and it's a source of much consternation when I seem him on tv and say to whomever beside me, who doesn't care, "That's Adam Sandler, I went to school with him" when it's not... it's Adam Saddler... ... that story's incredibly dull.. sorry.

catmag 336 Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 I personally thought Anchorman was one of his worse films. I'll probably still end up seeing Blades of Glory like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1217 Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 2046 (Cheers for the recomendation Alex) - Not as good as in the mood for love but still brilliantly shot and very worth watching. Clerks 2 - Really funny as with all of Kevin Smith's films but I don't think it had the depth of the original. And I still think it's wierd seeing Dante and Randal in colour! My Man Godfrey - Brilliant screwball comedy from the 30's with William Powell and Carol Lombard. One of the best films I've seen this year. The Killers - Cracking film noir with Burt Lancaster and Ava Gardener excellent as the femme fatale. Earth - My first go at silent films wasn't much of a success as I couldn't stand this supposed masterpiece of Russian cinema. It seemed like fifteen people would be talking and one line of dialogue would come up and I couldn't make out which one was supposed to be speaking. Not helped by the fact I kept nodding off through it like! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not helped by the fact I kept nodding off through it like! Never heard of it tbh. Don't be put off silents though. Get yourself some Charlie Chaplin, DW Griffiths, Buster Keaton and Fritz Lang. Eisenstein's always cited as a legend but his films don't have any of the heart of those 4 and don't really pull me in as a result. Fell asleep during battleship Potemkin.

It was on Sky Arts on Friday night and it's in the 1001 Films To See Before You die (which has led me to some really top class films). It's about some farmers getting some new machinery or something but like I say it was pretty hard to follow. It's not what I would have started with but since it was on I thought I might as well have a look. I was thinking of getting something like Metropolis, Nosferatu or The Cabinet of Dr Cagliari from lovefilm and working from there. Sky Cinema has had quite a few Chaplin and Keaton films on recently but I don't have access to it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the best versions of Metropolis have missing scenes, it's still the best of those 3 though. I've got that book too.
