In theaters, the Last one was Goosebumps. Last one in general was Trick r Treat.
I can't believe Halloween's already over...

Star Wars Episode 3.

It was okay. I had actually never seen any of the Star Wars franchise up until a couple weeks ago when I decided I'd see what all the fuss was about. I enjoyed the original trilogy, though I think I would've had to have grown up with it to really be able to get into it. I honestly fully expected episodes 1-3 to be superior, since I figured all the stuff I'd heard about them being crap was just a bunch of nostalgia-induced nonsense from super-fans, but it turns out people are right: The original trilogy is so much better.

Episode 3 was the best of the three, but that's not saying much. Everything still felt awkward and stiff and unnatural. That being said, the scene near the end between Anakin and Obi-Wan right after Obi-Wan dismembers Anakin is easily the best scene in the entire series.

Spectre

I loved this movie. I liked the throwbacks to the more campy, quasi-satirical Bond films of the past but i felt that it did drag the movie down some, tone wise. If it had been purely a "Craig-era" bond movie, more skyfall/casino royale-esque I think it would have been the best bond ever made. That being said, there were plenty of parts, such as the Day of the Dead opening in Mexico City and the scenes in Tangiers that just left me in awe. And the music from Thomas Newman (the opening Mexico city scene theme especially) was awesome. And, as usual, Christoph Waltz was ****ing amazing and made for one of the better Bond villains I think. So all in all, maybe not quite the level of Skyfall, but still an amazing bond movie.

The last movie I remember watching -
Guardians of the Galaxy

Love the movie, well I love all Marvel movies actually - all that action and hilarious scenes. Rocket and Groot together couldn't think of a better combination.

mine was spectre too! i went to see it at the theater with my friend. he took me along because he wanted to see it and we were planning on seeing a movie together. i've actually never seen a bond movie in my life before this one, so it was quite an experience and i was slightly out of the loop but it wasn't too hard to follow at all. i really enjoyed the opening scene as well! c: my friend actually just bought skyfall and casino royale that same night because he wants me to see them too, haha.

I rewatched Whisper of the Heart, Ghibli a couple nights ago. It's a pretty cool movie, although not the best one I've ever watched.
my favorite Ghibli film personally! but I still have a fair few that I've yet to see. but yeah Whisper of the Heart ticks all the boxes for me -- aesthetically beautiful, romantic, a palpable sense of longing, plus all the writer's block **** that's depicted in the latter half really gets to me. and the ending is the sweetest most awkward thing of all time which I also have a huge soft spot for. what a film. I should watch it again soon.

Exodus: Gods and Kings

Drop the stupid subtitle and all the white people and you have a nice little movie here. Cinematography is downright gorgeous (As expected of Ridley Scott) and the SFX are great as well.

Riki Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)

Oh Riki Oh. I've always had this cult classic under my radar for some time but I've never had the opportunity to watch it until fate called for it. Watching too much Monster Musume (and having some fun sessions in my "station") made me feel that I was losing some EDGE and I definitely needed some. Ok back to the plot.

Riki Oh or The Story of Ricky. Supposedly a movie adaptation of the manga, however this one is noticeably different from the source material aside from a few bits and pieces. What makes this movie amazing for me is that it was produced at a really low budget, yet somehow it manages to tell a really good story, with some good albeit really basic 90's cinematography with the very limited budget that it had. Consider Riki Oh's rather small budget, the movie manages to portray a fictional yet rather unsettling prison setting (minus prison rape which thank god the movie does not have), along with some insanely over the top violence that is highly justified to have. Remember, this is Riki Oh. Those who have somehow read the manga should know how over the top Riki Oh is.

Because of the movie's limited budget, there are some rather noticeable flaws that obviously came with it, such as the small cast of characters, extras or background actors that didn't do anything to feel involved, and a hilariously bad english dub which should be heard in order to believe. To be fair, this film's low budget english dub is still 10000x better than some other English dubs of Asian movies with a higher budget.

To sum it up. Great Martial Arts action, check. Over the top blood and gore, check. Produced at a low budget yet everything was used effectively, check check and tons of check. I highly recommend this movie for those looking for some EDGE, especially since were in Pokecommunity ;)

Off note: About to Watch Cannibal Holocaust. Yes I definitely love myself so much.

hunger games: mockingjay part 2

it was really good; a few scenes i felt were unnecessary... but other then that !! it was a great way to end the series. i mean; it could have been much worse.

Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2

Some scenes dragged on too long, but the action is great and also the end of the movie was pretty good too, even tho it dragged on a little too much. If part 1 and part 2 was made into a 3 hours movie, it would've felt better rather than splitting them into two and having the 1st part full of plot development and the 2nd part drag on too long because a one hour movie to end the franchise wouldn't give it justice at all.

Besides that, a great movie and a good way to end the serie :)

Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones

So, I'm watching a couple of Star Wars films a week, to refresh my memory in time for Episode VII. Ugh, this film. People generally say that Episode I is the worst one, but it's nowhere near as awful as this one. It's a badly written love story between a fantastic actor (Portman) and one of the worst I have ever seen (Christensen) and it just drags on...and on...and ON. Christopher Lee's Dooku is the only real highlight to this film, and much as I admire the man, I have to say I preferred Maul in Episode I...he just looked the part so much more. Attack of the Clones has some good fight scenes, but that's all it's got, and by the time they roll around you're either close to death, half asleep, or trying to remember exactly why you're doing this again and why you didn't just skip to the good parts. It'd save a good hour and a half if you did. I want my hour and a half back. This film has not aged gracefully.

I am so glad this one is behind me. Now I just have to endure Episode III and I'll be free to actually enjoy myself with it. As horrible a director as Abrahms is - and make no mistake, he RUINED Star Trek - I don't think he could possibly screw Episode VII up any more than the prequels. It's just...not possible. That would go beyond the realm of human stupidity and incompetence and enter Gurren Lagann-levels of kicking reason to the curb. It's NOT possible. At least, it had better not be...

The Missing.

Great movie! I usually dislike Westerns, but Kate Blanchett is one of my favorite female actors, so I gave it a shot. Glad I did, the cinematography was amazingly well done!
