ya, been a dearth of movies for many moons. bourne... i never get tired of watching bourne 1-2-3-4! :D
since lousy godzilla, a couple of good ones have arrived:

edge of tomorrow, a syfy flick. the idea of time travel and resetting timelines is not new, been used in many movies incl timeline 2003 and stephen chow's a chinese odyysey pandora's box. edge of tomorrow just has a diff setting and purpose. tom cruise is good, as usual. effects are reasonable, dtshdma audio is good. 3.5/5.

transformers age of extinction. rotten tomatoes gave it 18%! no great drama to expect from such a movie, but i somehow like it, maybe becos of mark wahlberg rather than lebeouf. all the bots come with slightly changed outfits but recognisable. great action like the 3 predecessors, superb audio with ddtruehd. 3.5/5.

now, wait for x-men days of future past and dawn of the planet of the apes ... probably the last two good movies for the year.

Watched edge of tomorrow last week. At least a good movie with real ending. I like watching movies with actual ending not like the lord of the rings or similar hate the 1/2full stomach.

I find the transformer bit dragging. Felt asleep in the cinema :D

Hungry Ghost Ritual 盂蘭神功 (2014)

Nick Cheung directorial debut and... he chose a ghost story??

First Simon Yap now him?...

Do they really think that horror movies are easy to make??

The interesting thing was it was actually filmed in Malaysia (Why do Hong Kies thinks that Malaysia's spooky??). The thing that shocked me most was... seeing a Proton Waja in one of the scenes!! laugh.gif

Movie revolves around an Cantonese Opera Troupe.

There is a twist at the end, and I think there lies the issue...

Nick Cheung in his directorial debut, tried to pull an M Knight Shamalyan!!!

Did not quite work.. At least not to me.

I do have to add, that the very last frame of the movie is actually... poetic!!

Not the best horror movie by far, Nick Cheung needs to attend film school.... tongue.gif

I'm mean, I know.

My Two Sen.

Just wnodering, where do you guys usually source for 1080p? Piratebay? Any other nice sites?

I don't think there is another better source

You guys have a lot to learn. TPB and KAT sucks 99% of the time because the movie encodes uploaded on there are absolute junk..
YIFY encodes suck..

Of course I will not come in here and just say this to you guys without giving you a better solution! RARBG is currently the best (it used to be Public-HD until they went MIA) if
you want to download from public trackers. Otherwise, look into private trackers, they are the best place to get your stuff.

Anyway, I've recently just watched X-Men Days of Future Past (2014), The Maze Runner (in the cinema), and As Above So Below (in the cinema as well).

Can't say a lot about X-Men but it was a pretty good film, though I didn't understand some stuff because I've never watched any X-Men movie before.

As for The Maze Runner, it was a really great movie!! Loved it. Enough said.

And As Above So Below was a pretty .. okay movie. I didn't like it that much and felt sleepy and dozed off for a bit multiple times. The movie was set (most of the time) inside a dark cave-like place (underground) and you can't really see much. Was an 'okay' horror movie. A little bit boring I'd say.


Currently looking to watch The Hundred Foot Journey and Annabelle in the cinema! I don't know where else to talk about what movie did you watch in the 'cinema', so might as well just post it here alongside what movie I've watched on my computer.

Yeah, TPB and other generic search engines do contain torrent links to some quality encodes, but if you browse via the "top 100" or something similar, you can rarely see a non-YIFY quality encode.

Agreed. I still decided to watch it anyway because I was bored and wanted a movie to watch. It was a good movie for a quick watch, fun and exciting, even if you do not know
the history of the X-Men movie universe and it's characters.

well, its up to the users to choose which to have. some ppl go for the highest quality but some are only looking for decent sizes. in TPB, I found both. its about the sources and it is up to users to choose.

fair comment, valid.
however, as time goes by n if one is still dwelling in this past time called watching movies, the mode of procurement evolves.
low grade ones, 1-2 Gb, don't even need to dl, just stream online with android or other devices, watch n forget! 30-50gb ones, ok, get, watch n collect them! tongue.gif


anyway, think enough... we shud talk about the movie and not the procurement as that is a forbidden/taboo subject, dun wanna get thread closed by moderator... still, we understand every now n then someone will ask "how and where".... laugh.gif

this movie also got 80% from rotten tomatoes. so, if u like romantic comedy, it shoud be good.


talking of ratings, how do people go about deciding which movie to watch?
i usually look at rotten tomatoes, will consider if >60%, more so if the genre is what i like.
if a movie belongs to a running franchise like transformers, x-men or jason bourne, lower rm rating doesnt matter!
i usually do not read much into imdb ratings as i find it too generous.

how do you guys go about it?

I rely mostly on IMDB, ratings 6 and above, plus the user reviews.
But for Asian movies, I go for higher ratings because the ratings for such movies are generally over-rated.
