Same here! Since this was a Maiden forum, I really wasn't expecting any Beatles fans on here but I was wrong! In all, I'm actually amazed by all the different tastes in music floating around here. It's very interesting. :)
 
I wouldn't call that surprising, considering how very different demographically we all are here.
 
True but sometimes certain band type forums have members who only listen to the genre that the band is from. It's just really cool being apart of such a diverse group. :)

I wouldn't call myself a fan (yet?) but I find their history very interesting (and naturally I like some albums and various songs).

Yesterday I saw the Martin Scorsese film: George Harrison - Living in the Material World from 2011.

Trailer:

Check out Scorsese about the film:

It has archive material, family, friends and associates telling the story of his life and how spirituality became such a major part of it. Very impressive. Like Scorsese says, he tried to make something that wasn't done before. Recommended!
 
Just saw a whole bunch of movies lol, though the one I recommend that I saw in cinemas was Cloud Atlas. Very good storytelling, I recommend it a lot. Also saw for a fistful of dollars, the BBC Sherlock's but only the first season and a Cantinflas movie called Su excelencia "Your excelence" that was so fun lol. And my family is watching a series of Pablo Escobar called El Patrón del Mal "Evil's boss", very good production, acting and story, another I recommend a lot.

I just watched Django Unchained and enjoyed every second of it. Tarantino is a real master. :notworthy:

I also saw it yesterday, and though I found the movie good, it is not as good as Inglorious basterds or Pulp Fiction for several reasons... Jamie Foxx acting was horrible, totally grey and didn't have enough force or strength until the end of the movie... Now Christopher Waltz totally rocked, but
his death wasn't very convincing, I mean, the character had been totally calculator and cold-blooded the entire movie and then that happens? Tarantino could have written someting better...
Also I didn't like that much the way
Django is spared by Samuel L. Jackson, too typical... Make the character overcome his tests by himself for pity's sake!
Buuuut I really liked the ending, the only moment when Jamie Foxx shines... The best roles/acting in the whole movie were Christopher Waltz and Samuel L. Jackson, they totally rock with Tarantino as director... Also the soundtrack wasn't implemented in a good manner, I think this has to do with the death of Tarantino's long time editor... Overall I liked it, I'd give it an 8.5 out of 10

I just finished watching it through for the first time (I'll no doubt re-watch it a few times). I feel Scorsese was good at picking the right stories to tell and he weaves it all together quite appealingly..Even if you've read or watched movies on Harrison before you still come away with a better understanding of the man George Harrison and a greater appreciation for his music afterwards, in large part thanks to the extensive archive material! And if you don't know much about George Harrison but would like too, then this is also a perfect place to start. Another recommendation from me.

Now on to another Scorsese rock documentary. "No Direction Home: Bob Dylan"

This.


Although I have to admit I like it because it's so cheesy.

Of all the Helloween songs you could've chosen you picked a horrendous example.... Specially from their back catalog.


Anyway, Haven't posted much on this thread in a while, but last night I Nextflixed a really weird movie that impressed me enough to post about it. It's called V/H/S. I don't want to spoil too much, but it is a found footage movie (yes, I know... another one of those), but I feel it succeeds in where all the other ones, even the so-called "good ones" fail. The use of the camera is much more realistic in that there is A LOT left out, because people don't walk around with their camcorders all the time. No explanation.... you just jump into the movie. The description says that a group of guys are tasked with finding a unique VHS tape, when they arrive to the house they find a man dead surrounded by VHS tapes... what follows is pretty awesome. I'm watching it again tonight to piece stuff together better. If you like horror this one is definitely for you.
 
Just saw Reservoir Dogs, since for my film class I'm presenting Quentin Tarantino as a director, and I found it very, very good. The acting is superbious, a true classic.
