YouAreMySilence: Shutter Island

YouAreMySilence 03.12.10	So yeah basically contemparary neo classical faggotry.
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	Seeing it tomorrow. Really looking forward to it. Asa Chang and Junray - Jun Ray Song Chang
Powerban 03.12.10	Shutter Island was good. Good list but Jonsi at the rating of 3.9 sounds pretty spot on to me. It's about a 3.5/4. Check out The Evpatoria Report - Dar Now.
March_Of_Sand 03.12.10	I haven't seen it yet but all of my friends who have thought is was stupid and they didnt like it.
YouAreMySilence 03.12.10	Yeah alot of my friends didnt enjoy it either. Idk for Jonsi, Grow Till Tall gives it atleast a 4. My rating might lower but I cant give it anything but a 5 right now. Pure gold.
Inveigh 03.12.10	I called the ending of the movie pretty much as soon as they entered the facility. But it was a hell of a lot of fun getting there. Loved the visuals, every camera shot was epic and composed perfectly. Basically exactly what you should expect from Scorsese, and he created the mood/atmosphere brilliantly as usual too.
Electric City 03.12.10	yeah hearing 1 in shutter island rocked my world. and Jonsi isn't that good dude, I wish it was better but I sometimes like negative emotions to simmer underneath my music, if only because the happiness shines a little brighter in the end.
BallsToTheWall 03.12.10	I didnt even want to see the movie originally. My borther made me go and i'm glad I did.
YouAreMySilence 03.12.10	Same Downer, thats why I was so surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I usually hate when music "mollywhips me with sunshine" but in this case it puts a constant smile on my face in away like no other record has. And the vocal melody to Grow Till Tall has to be one of the best Ive ever heard.
Satellite 03.12.10	Movie was pretty meh by Scorcese standards imo.
combustion07 03.12.10	Shutter Island was pretty amazing
TMobotron 03.12.10	Dude 3 is one of the greatest albums ever. I want to see Shutter Island pretty bad actually I should get on that.
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	Just finished listening to Jonsi. Sweet!
ninjuice 03.12.10	I wanted to see it but am less excited cause I apparently guessed the ending almost perfectly. Still should be good cause it's Scorcese.
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	Scorsese is pretty consistent. I thought The Departed was a cluttered mess, though.
ninjuice 03.12.10	boooooooooooooooooooooo You suck.
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	Who, me?
ninjuice 03.12.10	Yes, cause The Departed is amazing. It's not very complicated at all.
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	I never said it was, dude. It was an ugly pastiche of better films. Like the part when he lifts his hand up and tells the therapist how his hand never shakes...In The Godfather when Pacino realises his father is going to be assassinated in hospital and he stands outside with some none-mob dude who's hand is shaking like a shitting dog as he tries to light a cigarrette, Pacino takes the lighter, lights it for him and looks at his own steady hand. The beginning of his descent into criminality. Elegant and subtle.
ninjuice 03.12.10	So one scene is similar to another scene. Anything else?
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	Ok, now I'm annoyed. I'm not saying it's a poor film because one scene is like another. I am saying that I see The Departed as cluttered and unfocused, for reasons that would fill a long essay. I attempted to condense my argument into a brief example.
ninjuice 03.12.10	Fine. I'm just glad you're alone there.
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	It was just an opinion, man. Whatever.
MUNGOLOID 03.12.10	movie was decent. it was a little too long and the twist ending was just, bad. did love the atmosphere, weird dream scenes, & acting though. i'd give it a 2.5 / 4
tombits 03.12.10	The film had a great concept and was shot well, but the plot became too convoluted for its own good and the explaination at the end was way too much. It was Sorsese at his most ridiculous and unrestrained, and he nearly pulled it off too.
ninjuice 03.12.10	"It was just an opinion, man. Whatever." Which is why I said "fine" instead of "you're a faggot".
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	It wasn't the 'fine' part I took exception to. It was the: 'I'm glad you're alone there.' Because I disagree with your opinion I am alone in mine? Arrogance. I dislike you.
porch 03.12.10	Ninjuice is an ignorant douche, and doesn't seem to know much about movies either. Shutter Island was a disappointment, but then Scorsese has been rehashing old ideas for a long time now so i'm not that surprised.
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	Have to agree with MrPorchular.
ninjuice 03.12.10	The Departed has 92% approval on Rotten Tomatoes and an 8.5/10 average on IMDB, so you are definitely in a small minority when you don't like it. Sorry that misunderstanding me makes me a douche.
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	It wasn't a misunderstanding; you didn't mention a 'minority'. And yeah, I'm aware I'm in a minority when it comes to my opinion of that film, but I don't see what that has to do with anything. There has been a lot of critical theory aimed at Scorcese's work and The Departed is flawed, whatever the majority thinks. Personally, I'd have been interested in your detailed opinion about the film, but instead you apparently feel 'glad' about my being 'alone'. Great way to voice an opinion.
ninjuice 03.12.10	Then I should have "minority". Settle down.
ninjuice 03.12.10	"Ninjuice is an ignorant douche" Lol yeah I make rasputin look like Waior
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	Ok. Off to see Shutter Island, now.
Phantom 03.12.10	Going to to see the movie this weekend/next weekend depening on how Uni work goes. Not going to read any comments in this list in case of spoilers, but yeah, looking forward to seeing it.
BallsToTheWall 03.12.10	aren't we all ignorant douches? Of course we are. We sign onto a music site and think we're special because of our overdeveloped musical senses.
LeotardMessiah2 03.12.10	guy guys guys you're making a mistake here. stick to the music ok. trust me
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	Music isn't independent of the world, man. Other debates and subjects add context.
Ulsufyring 03.12.10	completely underwhelming, incredibly predictable and unforgivably cheap
LeotardMessiah2 03.12.10	ok well i'll weigh in with my thoughts then... this is just scorsese dumbing down for hollywood. i suppose if you switch off your brain then its enjoyable but considering i'm a huge fan of his older movies its hard to do that.
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	Dude, this is a music site.
LeotardMessiah2 03.12.10	Music isn't independent of the world, man. Other debates and subjects add context
MUNGOLOID 03.12.10	i wouldn't say he's dumbing down for hollywood because the film itself feels so polished from the production values to the scope. shutter island, actually feels like a movie.
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	Touche.
Yotimi 03.12.10	I kinda agree with Leotard. Movie was not good. Horribly cliche, extremely predictable. It would have been a bigger twist if SPOILER........ it wasn't all in the protaganist's head. Anybody that seen a psychological thriller in the last 15 years should've seen that coming. That "twist" is so stale now.
MUNGOLOID 03.12.10	the twist was so stale that i bet M. Night Shyamalan would grunt if he seen it.
Ulsufyring 03.12.10	whoever said the production values were high on this movie is fucking retarded. if you're anything less than blind you can spot the terrible green screening on the boat and during the drive through the forest a mile away. not only that, and it might have just been my theatre, but i swear the color filter changed like 8 times during the movie
MUNGOLOID 03.12.10	i said the production values were good. never said they were perfect.
porch 03.12.10	The twist was in the fucking book that this is based on so stop complaining about it as if its Scorsese's fault
MUNGOLOID 03.12.10	the twist isn't the problem, it's how it was delivered that knocked off major points.
Dryden 03.12.10	never going to watch this
porch 03.12.10	yeah well the whole movie is kind of lame
Inveigh 03.12.10	visually, Shutter Island was far superior to The Departed. Didn't have the characters, or the acting though. The plot in The Departed was pretty ok, albeit a bit standard. It's a remake though, so whatever. Gangs of New York was Scorsese's last borderline classic IMO, and it had been awhile before that he'd released one (Goodfellas). All of his movies are entertaining, but nothing will ever top Taxi Driver, which is the greatest film of all time in my opinion.
porch 03.12.10	Taxi Driver is incredible
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	Taxi Driver is the nuts.
MUNGOLOID 03.12.10	never got into gangs of new york but daniel day lewis was a beast.
Deviant. 03.12.10	Everyone's acting like Scorsese can't make a bad movie or something. 'Shutter Island' was fine, not his best work but by no means his worst
Brokenjewel 03.12.10	Gangs of New York sucked anus. TV-movie quality at best.
porch 03.12.10	It seems Casino is pretty underrated
Deviant. 03.12.10	I enjoyed Casino, but it almost seemed like Goodfellas part 2. Which is fine and all but being the first movie he made after Goodfellas I was hoping for something a little different
porch 03.12.10	Yeah, but still probably his last great movie though. Don't know what he was thinking with The Aviator or Gangs. Another good one that a lot of people seem to have forgotten about is Bringing Out The Dead. Nic Cage is really good in that
MUNGOLOID 03.12.10	the reason casino and goodfellas feel similar is because they're both based off of books written by the same guy.
Inveigh 03.12.10	Casino is good, but it's kinda a poor man's Goodfellas. The Aviator was ok, just kinda boring. Gangs of New York was Scorsese's baby, 20 years in the making. It was also fantastic. I have no idea why anyone wouldn't like it, other than Cameron Diaz's annoying ass. They really, really should've gotten someone else to play that role. The opening battle is just fucking epic. Bringing Out the Dead is DEFINITELY underrated, and maybe Nic Cage's best movie. Which I guess isn't really saying all that much, but Leaving Las Vegas and Raising Arizona were pretty good. Forgotten, and kinda bad Scorsese movie: The King of Comedy. Also, De Niro's peformance in Cape Fear saved the movie. Yeah, I love Scorsese. Was a film major and wrote multiple papers on him/his movies.
MUNGOLOID 03.12.10	the nic cage that made me realise that he actually did have some acting chops was Adaptation. can't believe no body talks about that movie any more.
lobby 03.13.10	the trailer gives away the ending, but its a good idea so i won't be disappointed when i see it
