The Lord of the Rings trilogy
OK, so when I was younger and whenever LOTR came on on tv, I would check it out quickly and be like: "WTF is this shit? Talking trees and ugly orcs fighting wars. This is not my thing." Totally oblivious to what the genre fantasy meant.
Fast forward to present time... And what I thought is a long drenched-out nonsense trilogy, is an absolute masterpiece.

Three brilliant films of great visuals, great score and an epic adventurous story to it. I haven't watched a lot of trilogies. I thought Nolan's batman trilogy will forever be my favourite. However, when I finished The Return of the King today. I was so amazed. It was 4 hours long, but the film took me in a tight grasp and never let go. It was brilliantly directed by Peter Jackson. Just so, so that it finishes off the story very well. Maybe credit should go to the author of the books there. But still massively great job done by Jackson over all 3 films. In a trilogy, the first one is usually the best, and as it goes on to the 2nd and the 3rd, the quality just gets weaker. But this is not the case in LOTR. I felt it just got better every single time.

As I said the third film really made it for me. It was absolutely phenomenal. I was an emotional wreck in that last 40 or so minutes. Not that the first two weren't that great, but something that the third one had is that little more emotion, plus Elijah Wood really came into is own and did the character, Frodo, justice. Viggo Mortensen also had a great performance in this one. And I loved the character Sam. Always there by Frodo's side. Helping him, and just always giving him that extra courage, hope and strength to complete their task. So many intriguing characters that a fantasy film/novel can create. One of them of course, Gullom/Smeagol. The ugly old fecker! LoL, but he played an important role in the trilogy. It is now my favourite trilogy of all time. And I certainly don't regret that I forced myself into watching something which I thought was a lot of crap.

My ratings:
The Fellowship of the Ring - 8.2/10
The Two Towers - 8.2/10
The Return of the King - 9.0/10

I'm not usually generous in my ratings, but these films truly deserve them high ratings. I rarely give 9+/10. To date I have only given 4 films that honour.

12 Years a Slave has rocking atm at TFF

It's gonna win a few oscars, Already been compared to greats such as Schindler's List... and the cast is amazing, the underrated Chiwetel Ejiofor, Fassbender, Cumberbatch, Pitt and Giamatti ..... and directed by Steve McQueen (whose last 2 films were amazing)

Steve Mcqueen is a fantastic director. Hunger and Shame were two amazing films, 12 Years A Slave looks like it's gonna outdo both. Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Director, Best Picture, Best Writer Oscar nominations already being tipped. Really looking forward to watch it, that's a great cast there.

Finally finished Edgar Wright's trilogy... Very Happy

Fecking epic. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are BOSSES!!! All three movies are worth watching. Shaun of the Dead is my favourite. The World's End started of very well, thought it was gonna trump Shaun of the Dead, but the end was a little bit disappointing. But still good.

Just got back from the premier of Rush. Have to say, damn near perfect movie. Could see it generating some legit Oscar buzz.

Went to see Prisoners last night.

Powerhouse acting from Jake Gyllenhaal, Hugh Jackman and Paul Dano.

One of them is going to be nominated for an Oscar...that much is clear.

Watched 'Gravity' on 3D today :bow::bow::bow::bow: 
This is definitely one of my favourite movies (I have watched tousands of movies) and surely could enter into others' all-time fav lists too.
The visuals are absolutely amazing and the 3D is utilized to enhance the viewing experience. I felt that I was exploring space with Sandra bullock and George Clooney.
The acting is great(Expecting a serious oscar shout-out for Bullock), the story and dialogue is simple so that any age-group can watch it.
Alfonso Cuaron :bow: :bow: :bow: shows us how to do the perfect film-making using every innovative technology to devastating effect.

Everything about this movie is perfect and you will be in the edge of your seat from the beginning to end.
MEGA SPOILERS:

There are a lot of things in this movie that were never used until now
This is HANDS DOWN THE BEST MOVIE OF 2013 AND WORTH EVERY PENNY WATCHING IT ON 3D.
I VERY VERY HIGHLY recommend ALL GL members to watch this film.

That is really weird. Another episode of Olympus Has Fallen + White House Down?


By the way, I feel like Dwayne Johnson is more like Kratos than Hercules.
