Stranger Than Fiction...what did you think? - Page 3

silent_brian13 · 10-27-2007, 11:28 AM

it was a good movie, and i was happy to see will doing other things.

as for punch drunk love though..eh. adam sandler can't carry every movie. and not every script can carry him. PDL is a good example of both.

well, i can fairly safely say i disagree with this. the music cues were all terribly off

The other Dr. Cox line that slays me is, I think from Season 1...
Are you saying you want to be like me? Don't you understand ... I just barely wanna be like me?

the episode of where ben dies and dr. cox thinks he is at his sons birthday party did it for me. seeing him cry was too much.

That "Where do you think we are?" part?

waltermcphilp · 10-27-2007, 03:06 PM

yea man. that was just on the other day too.

Wasabi · 10-27-2007, 08:54 PM

I find it odd that we're all familiar with this particular episode.
It's what made me a big fan of the 'winter' song.

We just watched Transformers and I had to hold back tears. And I almost cried during Natural Born Killers last night. I swear, I just cry at everything.

KrazeeStacee · 10-27-2007, 10:05 PM

Our friend is out of town so we're going over to his house to borrow his stuff

We're gonna return those two movies and see about getting more

scrubs is terrible, garden state is slightly better but still bad, stranger than fiction is kind of cool but not really, and punch drunk love is good and maybe great but i've only seen it once and that was when it first came out so i can't say with a lot of authority.

TuralyonW3 · 10-27-2007, 11:21 PM

scrubs = terrible
garden state = meh ok i guess
stranger than fiction = pretty good not amazing
punch drunk love = masterpiece

sickbadthing · 10-27-2007, 11:48 PM

Here listen to this. They're called The Shins. They suck almost as bad as the movie we're in.

KrazeeStacee · 10-28-2007, 12:44 AM

I just lost respect for you two who say scrubs is terrible.

Anyhow, my friend happened to have Punch Drunk Love so we're going to watch that sometime soon.

there will be blood? don't spoil it for yourself, my friend saw an advance screening and says its FUCKING INCREDIBLE

KrazeeStacee · 10-28-2007, 02:33 PM

Well I just watched Punch Drunk Love and I didn't think it was all that great. It felt really long and drawn out. I dunno, it was cute...Adam Sandler's character was really funny, there were some cool parts...but overall it was alright.

smashingjj · 10-28-2007, 02:43 PM

just watched it, it was ok. there is this dutch movie called Ober which has almost the exact same theme, the main difference is that the protagonist in the dutch movie visits the narrator all the time and more people from the story do as the story goes on. it gets a little more hectic. i liked it better than stranger than fiction

i cant wait for this movie. i heard about jonny greenwood doing the soundtrack so i checked out the trailer, it looks really awesome. daniel day-lewis is going to be starring so that should be good right there.

To be fair, I don't think people who cry during Transformers are the people who like Punch Drunk Love.
