Fahr. 9-11 (aka Spiderman 2 group viewing) - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

murphy · 2004-06-29, 09:51 PM

Just posting to see how many from last weeks bullies meeting are still intrested in seeing it. I'll post time and thearter later. It be a better bet on going to sparks or downtown. The park lane one might be tough to get in..

ArthurS · 2004-06-29, 10:09 PM

I am interested in going. Just let me know what date and time.

Might even have my car back by then.

sti deede · 2004-06-29, 10:11 PM

Most shows for Wednesday are already sold out.

Here are the remaining times:
Century Parklane 16
210 E. Plumb Lane, Reno, NV 89502
12:01am | 12:15am
Century Sparks 14
1250 Victorian Ave, Sparks, NV 89431
12:01am | 12:15am
unless you already got tickets for a later time, looks like no wednesday.

tysonK · 2004-06-29, 10:46 PM

While I do want to see this film.

And most of you know I GO to the movies.

I will be waiting on seeing this for a few days for the crowd to die down. I find that this kind film can generate an irritating crowd that would mostly likely diminish my movie expierence.

edit: I know I'm a movie snob.

sperry · 2004-06-29, 11:11 PM

Well, I'll just let you all know how it is around noon when I get in to the office.

sti deede · 2004-06-30, 12:06 AM

Please except my apologies. I was enlightened on the status of the movies tomorrow, it seems that all the showings are open still. I got confused on fandango. I guess thats why i never buy the movie tickets.

Dean · 2004-06-30, 06:25 AM

The 5:45 downtown might be a good option...

dknv · 2004-06-30, 11:45 AM

I heard from Chris, he is recommending 7:30p in Sparks. (He can't get to seccs.org from work, today.)

Dean · 2004-06-30, 01:28 PM

I'd prefer downtown over Sparks no matter the time. Sparks and Park Lane are a zoo compared to downtown IMHO...

Do we have a virdict on it from Scott yet?

Dean · 2004-06-30, 01:36 PM

Downtown schedule...

| 5:45($5.50 show) | 6:45 | 7:45 | 8:45 | 9:45 | 10:45

sperry · 2004-06-30, 01:43 PM

Well, I saw SM2 today at 8:45am.... I had low expectations, and the movie didn't dissapoint.

Actually, it wasn't too bad. The dialog was a bit too contrived (as expected in a movie like this) and the special effects weren't any better than any other effect movie.

The biggest problems came from how slow the movie got trying to detail Peter Parker's struggle between the responsibility of being Spiderman vs. his responsibility to himself and those he loves.

However, the love story between MJ and Parker was well done... in fact it was the best part of the whole flick. 'Course the fact that it's got Kirsten Dunst, who I think is uber-hot, doesn't hurt.

One big dissapointent is that once again, this "Sam Raimi Film" doesn't feel like a Sam Raimi Film. There's only one scene that has his "touch" on it (when Dr. Octo is in surgery.... you'll know it when you see it). I always hoped the SM movies would be big-budget, super-hero versions of Evil Dead/Army of Darkness... with all kinds of crazy camera shots, unnecessary zooms, and rediculous expressions on the character's faces. But this movie just felt like every other big comic movie with big CG special effects sequences and fluffy dialog... which I guess isn't a big problem, I just thought there was potential for something more.

One cool thing is you'll notice Ash in the movie if you pay attention!

Kevin M · 2004-06-30, 02:21 PM

Don't worry... Sam raimi said the whole point of taking the deal for the SpiderMan series is that the studio would give him carte-blanche for the next Evil Dead movie... so no matter what, the SpiderMan series is working for the forces of good.

Speaking of which, Bruce Campbell (aka Ash from Evil Dead) played a small role in spiderman 2 as an usher

dknv · 2004-06-30, 05:52 PM

You know...Michael Moore did some digging to find a lot of that footage...I was pretty impressed with some of the clips he found...I'm not sure what to think of that movie, I actually really enjoyed it, It makes you think, It suggests things no one else has been able to put into words...

Now, with that said...If that movie has enough influence on people as past MM films, then George W has no shot at re-election. What an absolute slam on his character. And judging by the audience reaction to the movie, I think most people left that theatre with a very bad taste in their mouth regarding our President, and our current government for that matter.

What I'm left to wonder about the movie is...How much of it was taken out of context? How much was edited to say what Moore wanted it to say? It's very hard to tell...

Anyway, I recommend seeing Fahrenheit...if nothing else it makes you think.

dknv · 2004-06-30, 10:29 PM

I saw Farenheit 9-11 on Monday, and my primary reaction was, 'Impactful'.

The editing is masterfully done. Some of what is shown is very eyebrow-raising. It should be seen.
