    In terms of superhero films, I think the best superhero film of this decade (and something I think you would very much like Jean) is this:

    Ooh, nice one, Mattrick. I agree, out of all films involving people with superpowers, it's not only one of the best, but definitely a film that Jean has the best chance of enjoying.

    Chronicle is a film I think I can watch over and over again and represents one of my favourite sort of movies and that is one that mix and mashes various genres together that form a cohesive narrative, with characters we can understand and manages to make old tropes fresh again. A film like Chronicle shows that even tried and tested formulas can be improved upon and re-invented by breaking the formulaic constraints genres put on films. This is a reason I am such a big fan of the [REC] movies, even the sequels because it's like walking through familiar territory after its gotten a coat of white primer.

    looking for a source now. It's difficult to find it with original soundtrack and reasonable file size

    Dear friends!!!

    many of you know I am having big health problems now. What I can do best is reading (mainly Kindle; much worse paper; computer almost impossible), but, luckily, quite recently I've added watching films

    since I can do very little but the above two activities, and there's no telling how long this state of things will go on, I am trying to catch up with all the recommendations

    the problem is, it is extremely hard for me to read on the monitor, so I can't be really consistent in this quest

    so please, those of you who have recommended, or want to recommend, a film that I need to watch, please do it now, there's a good chance I will watch it at the long last!

    thank you!

    Fantastic Planet (if you haven't watched it)

    Amour
    The Arrival
    Wall-E
    Into The Wild
    Stay

    Yeah, I wasn't too fond of Matt's little jape, either. Still, it does remind me to keep an eye out for Another Year, at least.

    Oh, and bears: I still hope you're able to find a decent enough copy of An Adventure in Space and Time online with decent enough subtitles. While made for television, it's still a magical production.

    ROPE A DOPE, all in good fun of course James.. Been busy but will be watching Withnail and I tomorrow for sure. It's on my schedule, writted down, notarised and everything. Tried to watch it a bit back but couldn't find a copy. Between you, Bears, Ebert, and 1001 movies to see before you die...it's high praise.

    Oh you know I've got some recommendations

    Battle Royale (One of my favorite movies ever. Though try to watched it subtitled if you can)
    Guyver Dark Hero. (Yes the movie is corny. Yes it is cheesy as all hell and the acting is hit or miss. But it's still fucking awesome. The action is superb.)
    Death Note live action movies (another Japanese movie. Unlike the other one, all of these movies English dub is actually very well done. There are 3 of these movies.)
    If you love me then love me..

    still the same

    found with the original sound, but it's more than 30 GB. Even if I clear enough disk space, I can't play it

    This is a very general recommendation. I am not sure if bears would like this film since bears expressed not being fond of monster movies, but everyone else that likes monster movies should check this one out. DO NOT TRUST PUBLIC OPINION, as, according to the comment section on the youtube page of Beneath's trailer, it's the worst, dumbest, stupidest movie ever made. It has some similar themes of Cabin In The Worlds, it's just more subtle than the plot driven themes in that. I think I recommended it in this thread before, I don't think anyone has watched it yet. So, I'm doing it again. I recently re-watched it and it still holds up after a half dozen viewings. It's very smart. Beautifully photographed. Great use of long shots (gimme, gimme, gimmy long shots, I love them and the real great ones I could talk endlessly about). Good use of character (not to be confused with good characters, they're not bad, it's just the movie's central theme is the tearing down of social identities). It's funny. It's disturbing. It's nice too look at. It's got a giant maneating catfish that looks awesomely hilarious and kind of scary at the same time. It's got Mark Margolis (this guy, seemingly nowadays known as 'that guy that was in Breaking Bad)

    Having recently watched Coherence, I can very much recommend Triangle and Timecrimes for those that enjoyed that. Not exactly the same but similar. Very good stuff! Wish there were more movies like that. Like this one, maybe?
