    Movies is a relatively niche interest on here - check the traffic the forum gets. Itd frankly be better just having movie chat on the TAA forum. Either way nobody's gonna start a new thread every time they watch any old movie, having a thread to dump random thoughts/ratings they have when they do gets the odd bit of discussion going that otherwise wouldnt happen at all

    This forum gets has about 20 posters posting on it regularly. But in reality, it's really not supposed to be posted just to increase traffic. It's for information. So with the red doesn't need to be made in order to increase traffic people know where to go to discuss movies. It won't be dead without the rate your last movie thread

    A Bronx Tale 7/10 - Some dodgy acting in this one but over all, it's just as enjoyable as I remember.

    Either the thread exists and the forum doesn't or the forum exists and the thread doesn't

    I think Anthony moving it to an 'old films' thread was pretty sensible actually.

    Just to be a pain in the arse: I'd maybe add reviews or ratings to the title though? 'The old movie thread: ratings and discussion' or some shiz

    King of Comedy 9/10. It should maybe even be a ten because nothing about the execution of this could have been better

    A scanner darkly - 2.5/10. Didnt like this: over acted, overly verbose script. Philip K Dick's stuff seems kinda grandiloquent to me, thematically....deliver it in a style which feels like a half assed SNL sketch & the whole thing is basically just fucking annoying.

    Haven't seen this, but I have it. I'll watch this one.

    I had no idea Idris Elba was British until well after I finished watching The Wire.

    The worst accent I've heard was in the movie Premium Rush with Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Jamie Chung plays a Chinese immigrant. My god it was terrible, I was just cringing at how horrible it was.

    That movie is about a bunch of bike messengers and get caught up in this mess with a crooked cop (Michael Shannon).

    5.5 out of 10. Maybe I'll round up to a 6 to be generous.

    Goes down at least half a point because of Jamie's accent.

    Man of Steel. Oh my lord. So bad. I'm gonna give it 2/10 because fishburne and the guy who played zod both deserve a whole point each but as a project this was complete sewage.
