Akin to the "Musical Picks" topic, I want to hear what your all time favourite movies/television shows are. It can be anything from action to drama to sports to romance (who watches that anyway though?). Don't be shy and don't be mean to other members, even if they really did enjoy Superbaby-Geniuses or whatever that piece of crap was called

 

I'll start off with a couple of my favs; I find most of the ones I put down are great films all together, but have shining endings.

 

Blood Diamond (Thriller/Drama): Leo DiCaprio picks up a sick south african accent in this eye-opening thriller/drama. Great music but if you're a Leo fan, you can probably already guess how it ends lol.

Friday Night Lights (Sports): I'm not a football guy, but the cinematography and story made this a refreshing change to the typical, predictable, sports movie. Plus, the instrumental music by Explosions in the Sky fits perfect (note: the trailer is crap, watch the film).

The Lord of The Rings Trilogy (Fantasy): If you are on a Lego forum where Lego LOTR products are frequently discussed, you probably already know how awesome the films are. If you don't, I'll leave it up to the mods to immediately revoke your membership to BrickPicker (jk).

 

And last I'll just end with my favourite TV show, which is probably going into its final season this year, The Mentalist (crime procedeural): this murder-a-episode series focuses on a former psychic who is now tracking the serial killer who murdered his family. The show can be light and funny, but when the serial killer ("red john") gets involved, it can get pretty unnerving. The series has spent 5 years tracking down murderers so feels a bit tired, but it is still my favourite. And, I'll post a trailer for the 3rd season finally:

Phew, if you got through all that... you don't get bored easily, do you? Now tell me your picks!

Six years of work from the animator behind the TIE Fighter anime from.... nine years ago now. Damn. I remember posting that short film way back when.

 

Bionicle commercial sounded better in Japanese

 

 

CO-OP, a classic Doom animated mini-series of shorts. Up to part four for now.

I'm such a sucker, this gave me chills. The John Williams callbacks did it.

The music made me think of Top Gun in the first 3 seconds. Yay Krypto!

Exactly what I thought of. 

This gives me hope that Gunn is actually going to be able to do something with the DCU.  Definitely looking forward to this.

As with anything DC, if it isn't animated, I fully expect it to implode on itself. (I'd love to be wrong.)
Until DC proves otherwise this looks to be a catastrophe. Krypto? Yikes.

The Superman movie is done by the person that was responsible for Peacemaker TV show..

I fully expect Guy Gardner (Green Lantern) weird dance as the post credits bonus scenes..

His suit here feels closer to classic comic book form than the last few "Supermen" films making the John Williams callback that more significant and poignant remembering Christopher Reeve. Soon as he whistled, I was expecting good ol' Krypto. I do not believe the 'super dog' truly had a set pedigree and they went the way of fluffy cute over something of a strong bully breed. That could be audience appeal and possibly influenced by the worsening climate for mentioned bully breeds across the globe of malformed opinions based on erroneous data blaming the dog for the ill treatment of a bad owner or environment.

Anyway, Nicholas Hoult looks the part as Lex Luthor. Also, seeing Hawkgirl and Guy Gardner on the big screen finally feels good man.

TMNT (1987) full episodes live stream.  In case you want to listen to uncle Phil as Shredder

What are you looking for: reviews, investment, other?

 

 

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

 

Hell yeah!
