Just seeing if anyone has bothered to watch a film based on my recommendation. If you have then please state which movie(s). If you haven't then why the heck not.
 
I look over the thread every so often, but I really don't choose which movies I watch based on ratings, etc. I just watch what looks good.

None-the-less, your ratings and reviews are awesome.

Wow, you actually post before I can put up the poll. Glad you like the reviews.

Quick question though, has the thread turned you on to a film that you never heard of before. Regardless of the score the film received?
 
I read most of your reviews. Only requested 2 though. I had to choose the 2nd option, for the latter part. I don't really watch movies a lot, unless I think its going to be epic. Keep it up.
 
I've watch a lot of older movies that you've reviewed after seeing your reviews. I would link your thread in your sig somewhere though, because its a shame some people don't know about it.

I totally understand, thanks for the encouragement.

Thumbs up to you good sir. Just curious though, which films?

Pulp Fiction, I always wanted to see it and your review sealed the deal for me. I always watched a couple Charlie Chaplin movies. A few Westerns I believe. Can't remember specifics.
 
I don't watch movies based on other's opinions, I never have. I have however, checked your thread to see how you rated movies that I have seen.

Glad to hear it, especially the Chaplins and Pulp Fiction.

A respectable position to take. Any reviews that you disagree with?

Eagle Eye. Although the whole rise of the machines thing hasn't been original since the Terminator came out, I still thought it was a very well done movie. They revealed certain elements well to keep the viewer guessing (the jeweler, instrument repair guy, etc.)

And Spaceballs. I thought Spaceballs was brilliant the entire time.
 
I watched Lock Stock and Two Smoking barrels (or something like that) based off of your recommendation. I loved it!

Well Eagle Eye took a few to many elements from movies like The Net and Enemy of the State for me. It's not terrible, but there are other movies out there that are better than Eagle Eye.

Spaceballs is pretty up to personal taste. I thought it was pretty damn funny and recommend it, though if I only had to recommend one Brooks film...I would choose Young Frankenstein or Blazing Saddles over Spaceballs.
 
i usually dont base the movies i watch on reviews

although i have gone over a few movies youve reviewed

and you do seem to agree with me a lot of the time
 
Always cheek up on you thread time to time. You always have movies that I remember watching along time ago but forgot the names of.

REMO being one of them :P
 
After you saying that Quarantine was based off of the better Rec, I figured I'd go watch it, haven't yet but will soon
 
Our views on the movies are pretty close...

You need another option in your poll called, "Already seen them".
