The Wolfman (2010)

EtiolationGirl 3:29 am jesus christ, how far into The Wolfman does the werewolfing start? BE LESS BORING

UltraLegume 3:30 am kind of like how you don’t see the predator until 50 minutes in?

EtiolationGirl 3:34 am yeah, but at least they’ve got like, sounds in the jungle and sudden strung-up bodies in the meantime. this is like, we’re not even going to show you the body, and our main character is lethargic and ambivalent and possibly drunk and the only thing interesting is emily blunt quietly trying not to lose her shit because the dead guy is her fiancee, and she’s stuck in a house with an old crazy man and she’s not sure if it will be worse if she has to marry the lethargic drunk brother, or if he refuses her and she’s left with the crazy.

EtiolationGirl 3:37 am FINALLY! …..and it was just some guy getting torpedoed by a blur. please don’t go back to boring. please.

UltraLegume 3:37 am wow…that sounds enthralling, jeez
movement! it’s heading in the right direction

EtiolationGirl 3:39 am oh, yeah. i mean, kudos for making benicio del toro actually speak words instead of just chew his tongue like he usually does, but jeez, his character would be more lively if he was an actual lump on a log. get bit already, dammit!
screaming and shadows and “its the devil!” yaaay! MOAR CHAOS PLZ
holy shit it just dejawed a cop! ha!

UltraLegume 3:40 am ok…now i’m intrigued

EtiolationGirl 3:43 am they should have just started it with, “heeeeey, gypsies, this was on my dead brother, do you have a wise woman i can talk to about that?” *werewolf attack!* instead of boring, pointless set-up.

EtiolationGirl 3:44 am …..oh, god, you guys aren’t going to make us suffer through an hour of him recovering until the next full moon or something, are you? bring back the awesome!

EtiolationGirl 3:47 am even anthony hopkins is being crazy in a boring manner. what the hell.

EtiolationGirl 3:49 am god, at least have sex with your brother’s fiancee. DO SOMETHING TO PASS THE TIME UNTIL YOU’RE WOLFY. ANYTHING.
hugo weaving! have you come to be awesome, hugo weaving? PLEASE SAY YES

UltraLegume 3:54 am how long is this movie? do they have time left for any action?
lol..hugo is usually hired to be awesome

EtiolationGirl 3:55 am 1 hr and 43 minutes. it feels like its been on at least an hour, but the progress bar hasn’t even reached half way. *headdesk*
he is very good at the awesome. and if nothing else, he brings a little intensity and a great voice.

UltraLegume 3:57 am wow…always good when it seems longer than it actually is

EtiolationGirl 3:58 am seriously, they needed an editor more willing to trim the boring-ass fat on this movie.

EtiolationGirl 4:03 am someone needs to tell benicio del toro about things like emotions and inflection. you’re playing a stage actor, for christ’s sake. have emotion!
hee. i love the villagers boarding up their buildings in a panic, and hugo just strolling down the street like, “you woodsy folk are so cute. i can’t wait till you get eaten.”

UltraLegume 4:04 am i think i’ve only seen him in the usual suspects
nice

EtiolationGirl 4:04 am yeah, he’s a much better actor in that. he apparently can’t act unless he’s chewing his tongue.

UltraLegume 4:05 am yeah…well it must because it feels so natural

EtiolationGirl 4:06 am i can’t get why some people get jobs, y’know? there are really only two requirements for acting: speak so we can understand you, and say it like you mean it. and yet there are actors who can’t manage this, who keep getting jobs. don’t understand.

UltraLegume 4:08 am yeah…it’s usually one or the other…or if you’re lucky..they can’t do either

EtiolationGirl 4:09 am this is why if i ever get to make movies, i’m casting you in all of them. you can do both.

UltraLegume 4:10 am aww…danke ^^

EtiolationGirl 4:11 am so….crazy daddy is the original wolf, right? and…i really hope mommy and brother didn’t get killed because he was trying to turn them and failed. although i would totally accept it if they would reveal it less boringly. someone get furry, already.
you are an awesome actress. and awesome in other ways, too.
oh, finally.

UltraLegume 4:13 am thank you! *snug*
shit finally going down?

EtiolationGirl 4:13 am *hug-cuddle-grope*
indeed! *howls at the moon* kiiiiiiiill!
woah. guy got his arm ripped off and still got off a shot
not that it did him any good

EtiolationGirl 4:16 am and that guy lost his head
y’all should really let hugo take care of this

UltraLegume 4:18 am where is hugo when you need him?

EtiolationGirl 4:18 am hugo was smart and waited until the next morning to arrest him *lol*
crazy daddy is way too fucking calm about his kid killing all those people and then getting taken away to get experimented on

EtiolationGirl 4:21 am emily blunt gives good side-boob.

UltraLegume 4:21 am i enjoy a good side boob

EtiolationGirl 4:22 am doesn’t everyone? well. everyone with eyes, at least.

EtiolationGirl 4:26 am oh, god. they think he’s just crazy, and are going to try and show him that the moon won’t change him. oh, god, you’re all going to get eaten.

UltraLegume 4:27 am oh yeah…sounds good…bloodbath!!

EtiolationGirl 4:28 am hugo’s standing in the back with this thinky expression. “did i bring the silver bullets? hmm…..”

EtiolationGirl 4:29 am “no, no i did not. and that is a werewolf. hoshit.”

UltraLegume 4:30 am well fuck

EtiolationGirl 4:31 am luckily so far it seems to be concetrating on the asshole doctors who kept trying to “cure” him

EtiolationGirl 4:32 am hugo, a normal gun is not going to do it

EtiolationGirl 4:58 am crap, hugo got bit

UltraLegume 4:59 am oh dear…does that mean he’ll become more awesome?

EtiolationGirl 4:59 am that might be too much awesome for one movie

UltraLegume 5:00 am you make a valid point

EtiolationGirl 5:02 am i love how like, when the main character got bit, he mostly just flailed a bit and then passed out. but hugo’s all, “and now i will chase you through the dark woods armed only with a silver walking stick because dammit, we can’t take the chance you’ll eat the girl. bloody side-boob just isn’t the same.”

UltraLegume 5:04 am lol…yes…you make the movie come to life for me

EtiolationGirl 5:04 am dude, we would do the most amusing, insane movie summaries.

UltraLegume 5:06 am yes…yes we would

EtiolationGirl 5:08 am damn, the girl killed him. go, emily. and poor hugo. i love how he just looks down at the walking stick and then up at the moon, holding his wound, with this look of, “well….fuck.”
and we go out on a howl.

EtiolationGirl 5:09 am i love how the last five seconds were better than like, 98% of the first 45 minutes

UltraLegume 5:09 am weak sauce…
poor hugo
heh..they make you wait for it

EtiolationGirl 5:11 am they really do. long bouts of boring spiced with sudden awesome. needs more hugo. less plot. definitely more side-boob. i think it was made by someone who doesn’t understand that you do not watch monster movies for the drama.

UltraLegume 5:12 am haha..yeah, and if you insist on making it that way, make sure you actually engage the audience with the drama

EtiolationGirl 5:15 am dude, seriously. how do you actually make anthony hopkins being crazy boring? he’s great at being crazy. he should’ve had the easiest job in the whole thing. maybe he was dialed down so that benicio didn’t seem like so much of a cardboard cut-out?

UltraLegume 5:25 am perhaps. he might not have had his heart in the project and phoned that shit in

EtiolationGirl 5:30 am well, i would certainly understand not having one’s heart in that movie.
