The Town of Odyssey

Has anyone gotten the chance to see this film? I saw it just today and I have to say, it was absolutely excellent. It was sad, charming, artistic and brilliant. One of the best films I have seen in far too long.

Word of warning: This is a very violent movie, don't take the kids.

Of course plugged in online didn't like it, but look at the reviews from the people that actually know what they're talking about.

http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/pans_labyrinth/

It's one of the highest rated movies of the year.

If you can take the violence, then this movie is a MUST-SEE. It's just....amazing. I can't even describe it. Oh, actually, don't read the plugged in online review, it has major spoilers that ruin the movie. Read the screen it one or something.

XDXD at your statement that rottentomatoes knows what it's talking about, or those who frequent it. Because it's not always like that, you know.
However, I'd say it looks rather imaginative. Those who can stomach the violence and have a good head on their shoulders probably is able to see it without ... you know. Dying or something.

Okay, we're going to discount the word of fellow Christians because it's well-made?

(I am NOT saying you have to agree with Plugged In, just that you shouldn't blow them off because it's a well-made movie. Even THEY admitted it was well-made, just horrible morally.)

Umm, screenit usually has even more spoilers than Plugged In.

Every time I post a topic about a movie that isn't a freaking Disney flick everyone loses their mind!!

The movie is not horrible morally. I don't recall Plugged In saying that. It is brutal, but not unnecessarily so. I suggest you stop judging it before seeing it.

Screenit doesn't mention character's names. Plugged In tells you who dies and how.

I saw the trailer- and I thought it looked cool. I'll see it eventually. I do fairly well in movies with disgusting stuff in it...so- meh... >_>

imho, I think PluggedIn exaggerates at times....*cough*for example*cough*POTC2*cough*

Oh, relax Xiao. She just said she thought you were being too hard on PI.

And they don't always saw who dies when they say how.

Plugged In is worse than reading Harry Potter.

I said the plugged in review of Pan's labyrinth tells you who dies, and it does. I didn't apply it globally.

Well, you didn't specify in that sentence if you were talking about that one movie or not, so I just misunderstood you I guess.

And I take Plugged In with a grain of salt, I just didn't want you discounting other Christian's opinions without even thinking about, which I realize now I didn't know if you were doing that or not.

So I'll guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on this.

Nope, not joking. Yes, I said understated. (I don't know if it's a real word, but it fits. )

Normally I would laugh at something like this, but this is so insane that I'm just shocked.

Too bad you have to be offensive in the way you display your apparent inability to deal with others' opinions.

Well I don't know, but I think this is the longest thread of quoted material I've ever quoted. (Quote upon quote upon...)

I would elaborate on my opinion of the PI review and more specifically the POTC2 movie, but this is neither the topic nor likely the board (seeing as how it will most likely turn into a debate and belongs in CCDS).

So getting back on topic, what is the story behind Pan's Labrynth? Is it a fantasy movie in another world or in this world or what? What is that thing in the picture?

It's in Mexicanese!

I second that.
