the movie was seamless and flowed accordingly. at no point was anyone or anything carrying the film.

You're both wrong. Joss Whedon carried the movie.

Is "The Dictator" worth buying a movie ticket?

Havent made it through a full sitting of any of his other movies, not a big fan of films that make me cringe with embarrassment but tempted to try again after the Dictator... multiple full theatre lols were had this evening... though would be equally as fulfilling on the TV at home...

Does seem to lose a little something being scripted rather than the pseudo reality TV style of the others.

To answer your question: if in a relatively full theatre then yes worth a ticket

There are a couple of lame and dumb jokes that only llamas would laugh at; and laugh at they did! Outside of that there are some pretty cringe-worthy lols to be had and a decent amount of normal humour to warrant to price of a ticket tbh. I enjoyed it for the most part. 6.75/10

And the bit where Loki called Black Widow a mewling quim.

Pretty sure 99% of the people in the theatre had no idea he practically used the "C" word in a M rated movie.

That's the great bit about writing dialogue for American audiences, you can assume that they have the collective vocabulary of a group of five-year olds.

Watched John Carter today.

Really think that if they'd marketed it a bit smarter that it wouldn't have been such a flop.

It was actually quite an enjoyable movie, if a little long and slow in a couple of places. It's a bit sad that because it didn't satisfy the bottom line that there will probably never be a sequel.

The CG was quite well done, and Lynn Collins was rather hot, I thought...

At least Amazon seems to have all of the books for free though.

Probably? Fuck, that's the sort of movie that ends careers. No-one who wants to be employed again is going to put that one on their CV.

Yeah I thought John Carter was good to, not awesome, but good enough to past the time.

Safe House was also pretty decent as well.

I'm not saying it was a bad movie (I haven't seen it) - I'm saying it lost the studio a lot of money.

[url=http://www.wired.com/magazine/2012/02/ff_johncarter/]Wired ran a great article before the release of the movie and particularly Andrew Stanton, who a) probably shouldn't have been given so much leeway (someone telling him "no" might have helped and b) got too much of his own way on the marketing side as well. The trailers definitely didn't help the release at all, which is shame because it was pretty enjoyable.

One wonders if this film would have been allowed out the door if Jobs were still alive.

John Carter was not a great film by any means, but watchable. It is quite bizarre that the studio envisaged a quaint, rather obscure work by Burroughs turning into some kind of mega franchise - the property is just not really compelling enough in the modern era.

Melancholia I thought was fucking excellent, but if you're not a von Trier fan you should avoid like the plague.

I actually thought there was a good story hiding in john carter. it was just hidden by a sh1thouse script and directing.

Watched Your highness on the weekend. I expected to ignore the TV while it was on but it was actually fairly good (if your idea of good is low, low, low brow dick, fart and weed jokes (which mine is)). I didn't really think Danny McBride could carry a movie but everyone else seemed to pick the slack up.

So what's everyone's verdict with Prometheus?

I give it a 7/10, was surprised it wasn't better. Just didn't *pop* off.

needed more alien interaction

7/10 is where I'd put it as well. I'm also very glad I never watched any of the trailers (having gone back and looked at them). If you haven't seen the trailers yet, DO NOT.

Yeah, I watched a couple, definitely regretting it (having not seen the movie). Disappointing to hear it didn't live up to the hype, like most things..

As so far as Sci Fi goes, Prometheus was pretty sweet.

However, there were heaps of places they could have built the tension more, and I think that was the main thing lacking for me.

Didn't check it in 3D, but I think I will cause visually it looked amazing.
