  • Didn't go to the movies much last year

    But my local library has free DVDs.

    Haven't seen Sniper yet or Birdman ... but they'd be hard pressed to beat Whiplash.

    The interesting thing with Sniper was the effect on the audience. The whole film would be fine at home...but I have to admit that it was better in the theater.

      Yeah ... I wanted to see it in the theatre not so much for the audience reaction but for the visuals.

      All movies are better on a big screen but some are more "big screen" than others.

        I made the cardinal mistake of reading the book first and thought the movie was meh... Too many missing details and "Holllywidization" of the book. Book was great though.

                Haven't seen Sniper yet. I feel like I'm the only person where I live that hasn't seen it, everyone was talking about it for a long time. Imitation Game was great, really liked Whiplash. The ending was awesome.

                  They took a lot of dramatic license but it was a great ending.

                    Just watched Imitation Game last night, good flick.
                    500 internet fights, that's the number I figured when I first joined igglephans. 500 internet fights and you could consider yourself a legitimate internet-tough guy. You need them for experience, to develop leather skin. So I got started. Of course along the way you stop thinking about being tough and all that. It stops being the point. You get past the silliness of it all. But then...after...you realize that's what you are.

                      Whiplash was the best movie I saw last year.

                          Killer Joe, Not True Detective

                          But Matthew McConaughey is in it. He plays a corrupt cop who kills people on the side. Not great but I liked it.
