I was kidding- I know who they are. Yep, that’s Yondu - played by James Gunn regular Michael Rooker.

the casting is funny. Bradley Cooper as Rocket Raccoon and Diesel as Groot. The Animal as Drax. Glenn fucking Close running the Nove Corps and John C Riley as a high ranking officer. Odd combo of people.

It looks like they are going for a tone that is cool but also makes fun of how absurd it is. I’ve seen it described as half-way between Star Wars and Galaxy Quest. It’s got a kind of skewed logic: if you’re going to pitch a talking space raccoon to the general public, who better to voice him than… Bradley Cooper?
Frozen.
The wife insisted, and damn if it wasn’t pretty good!
I just seen The Raid 2. This movie just took a Giant shit on every action movie I have ever seen. GO SEE THIS MOVIE!!!
Then go home and burn the action section of your DVD collection.
Saw Oculus yesterday, since I am a ghost/haunted things movie junkie.
It’s good. There are a good bit of “wtf?” in what the characters do, but given the rather… traumatic childhood they had and the very nature of the thing they’re fighting against, all those inconsistencies actually make sense. The human mind is irrational, and sometimes I think people frequently demand far too many rational things out of people when they’re not supposed to be perfectly rational.
Anyways, if you’re a haunted things movie junkie like me, then you’ll probably enjoy it. I absolutely loved the ending.
The Grand Budapest Hotel:
I’d give it a solid B. Pretty damn funny. Yes, it’s an “artsy” film the humor is a little off-the-wall, but I liked it. Started slow, but had some great characters. Story is excellent, wonderful cast, and Ralph Fiennes is awesome. Edward Norton, Jeff Goldblum and Adrian Brody are also great along with a great role by Harvey Keitel, as of course, a felon trying to break out of prison.
Pretty damn funny.
Sabatoge: C+
Lots of violence and Arnold looks pretty good here. The plot is decent and has a few twists to keep you guessing but the supporting cast is terrible. Arnold is the bright spot here. Save your money, catch it on Redbox.

Have you seen the first one? I thought Raid 2 was good but not as “on the edge of your seat exciting” as the first.
I’m not a martial art movie fan but I thoroughly enjoyed both parts of the Raid series.

Paranormal Activity 5: The Marked Ones. It was ok, I would not make a special effort to watch this.
“SURFWISE”
Docu about a family of surfers.
Pretty good.

A very well-executed, smart indie sci-fi in the vein of Inception and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
I watched this movie. It was pretty sweet, the IMDB rating is crap.[/quote]
I watched this last night on Netflix. Thought it was fascinating. Gave it 5 stars. Thanks for the tip guys.

I enjoyed the first, it was simple pure in your ass action. The fight through the building was off the charts. The Raid 2 I just felt took everything to the next level. Hammer girl and Baseball Bat boy LOL WOW!!! The Car chase with the fight scene IN THE CAR, the full on prison yard Brawl…and that final fight…I’m still catching my breath.
I honestly can’t think of another Action (not just Martial Arts) movie that cranked it like this…ever. Die Hard, The last Rambo movie, the Terminator 1 or 2. This movie was a action game changer. The sound and camera work was amazing.
I watched Mud and Hotrod.
Hotrod was despicably terrible, but Mud was really good.

Chasing Mavericks was pretty good, based on a true story about a kid wanting to surf one of the craziest surf spots in the world.

Thanks for the recommendation, Max.
Jeff Clark is one of my heroes, so I’m definitely interested in Chasing Mavericks!
RIP Mark Foo.

So what are you saying
I saw The Machine yesterday. British sci-fi movie, thought it was entertaining enough.
