Dario Argento's Dracula.  It's beyond terrible, so much so that only a few bits are funny.  The dvd box art also is so clearly ripping from Dracula Untold, with Drac in armour and a billowing cloak turning into bats.  He never wears armour in the film.  The acting is dreadful.  Drac is also played by teh guy who was Van Helsing in NBC's Dracula.

Argento's Dracula is deliciously dreadful. Kretschmann and Hauer are normally great actors but they're embarrassingly bad here along with everything else. Dracula transforming into a gigantic CGI mantis, though? Brilliant.

Agreed.  I was just thinking, 'What's up with you guys?!'  I had hopes of hilarity when Jonathan got bitten, but it was such a pathetic end.  My favourite bit was the scene with the meeting about how to deal with him, only for Drac to turn up.  I was not surprised that Asia Argento was in a significant role.  Nice however, that they did actually film it in Romania.  I was a bit disappointed however in how it wasn't as good as his version of Phantom of the Opera, which had me on the floor in stitches.  Horror films are my comedy.

The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies.
This is the best one of the three Hobbit movies for me. And it serves as a nice transition to LOTR.
I wished there was more to Thranduil's wife back story than the few snippets mentioned on film.
Heck, I prefer more fabulous Thranduil than ninja Legolas.
I wished there was more Beorn rather than the blink or you'll miss it moment.
Galadriel and Saruman were awesome!

Resurrecting this beast; starting a new thread seemed pointless.

Tonight I'll be seeing Cowboy Bebop: Knockin' on Heaven's Door subtitled on a DCP (Digital Cinema Package) presentation with uncompressed visuals and sound (or much less compressed than a Blu-ray, at any rate). The US Blu-ray only has 2.0 LPCM audio but the film was originally mixed theatrically for 5.1, so it'll be cool to have that booming surround sound in the theater. Such a cool movie, only wish my girl didn't work in the morning and could join my friends and I.

Resurrecting this again.

I just watched Spectre! The plot is great.
Daniel Craig looks so old though... They really need to find a younger Bond.

Glad you enjoyed it :)
Yeah won't be surprised if we see a new Bond soon. Craig has been complaining about the part for years and I saw headlines about how he's declared he'll only do another one for the money.

It's kind of curious that Britain has two series, James Bond & Dr. Who, that have been running almost continually (only one notably long break each) since the 1960s. With the main character occasionally recast so that different generations have "Their Doctor" and "Their Bond". There's even been an old Bond who reprised the role after leaving (Connery in "Never Say Never Again") as many former Doctors have (in guest spots/specials/radio plays) so that's another similarity.

I still would rather see Idris Elba as the next Bond. Screw politics...

Also if Marvel does recast Blade (Let's hope they keep Wesley, he would be my first choice...or Spawn for that matter.)

Amen. Idris Elba is such an amazing actor.
Sigh... but politics will prevail.... :(

So I watched Kingsglaive recently. I don't know if I am an outlier but I liked it.
And Sean Bean still lives up to his movie death toll, even if it's animated. hahaha.

I'm currently watch an old 1970's series called Kolchak: The Night Stalker. Awesome series and I've only seen up to episode 3 so far. Kolchak is the precursor to the X-Files as it also deals with the unexplained and supernatural. However I'm finding this series to be much, much more enjoyable then the X-files. By far. The show has some good humour injected into it which the X-files lacks, and you just want to watch more of it. Later tonight I'll delve into another few episodes.
