From Hell was a good which I'm surprised. I liked it.

The Book of Eli good movie and I was so shocked when I found out and rematched and it makes sense...miss a lot of scenes that gave you hint.

Book of Eli was dope as fukk.

I've always said if they put Tarantino's name on it, it would be considered one of the best films of the last decade.

'From Hell' was ill....I waited all summer for that movie, watching the trailers all the time, I was so obsessed with Jack the Ripper, and all that, the movie didn't let me down, I don't like it as much as when I was 16, but it's still solid. It's a bit too stylish in some instances, doesn't have the grit and grime that would have pushed it a little further, but a really good thriller/mystery. To it's credit, it isn't nearly as goofy and over the top as the "Sherlock Holmes' adaptations of 2009.

So I guess it's worth buying both dvds since their on sale now? It seems like both are at least worth seeing. :manny:

everytime i see book of eli, i immediately wanna play fallout 3.


i love that movie and i love that game :ahh:

Did the opposite today, been playing Fallout 3 most of the day and flipped to Book of Eli on TNT :myman:

Book of Eli's a good post-apocalyptic allegory type of movie. Never seen From Hell

Book of Eli is a cool ass movie, but that's only because :myman: is in it. If it were played by anyone else like Marky Mark it would probably be below average.
