rifleman 70 #35 January 27, 2013 Not sure whether it's an alien movie or not, but Attack Force was just completely dire, even for a Seagal movie.

JohnMitchell 16 #36 January 27, 2013 Quote Red Dawn Different kind of alien, eh? Parte une ou deux? Funny story, years ago, when the cold war was just barely over, I was walking to the plane with a Russian tandem passenger. Walking with us was a sport jumper who was also a Ranger stationed at Ft Lewis. He asked my passenger "Are you Russian?" The passenger replied that he was. The ranger seemed to mull it over a few seconds, then stare straight at my passenger and asked "You ever see the movie Red Dawn?" No answer from my passenger, but I was having a hard time not laughing. Gotta love those gung ho Rangers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJL 235 #38 January 27, 2013 Call me a repetetive fan-boy but Episode 1. I say that because there exists a standard to which a movie needs to be made and Lucas entirely ignored it. I'll let Plinkett say it in long form: Red Letter Media: Star Wars : Episode 1 Oh, and Han Shot First."I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quade 4 #45 January 27, 2013 QuoteWell there's ALOT of preppers!! BUT, back to our movie convo. Signs, watched it and it was bad! Hilarious. Pretty much everything M. Night Shyamalan has made after Unbreakable is tainted by his puzzle-twist endings. Sixth Sense was novel. Unbreakable confirmed the pattern. Everything after that, people are too preoccupied with trying to figure it out, including Shyamalan. I think he thinks it makes it interesting, but unfortunately in order for him to get there, he makes less and less sense and is ultimately saying very little in the process other than, "I'm going to attempt to fool you, see if you can sit for 2 hours in the dark and figure it out."

Although I can put up with lens flare much easier than putting up with F'n Jar Jar! It's no secret I'm disappointed with JJ as choice of director. Lens flare is the least of my worries though. My problem with JJ is his overall concept of what story is. He explains his concept as being that of the "mystery box." A tantalizing set-up. He doesn't care if the set-up is ever resolved as long as it keeps your momentary interest. That sort of works for TV where you have to keep people tuned in past the commercials and get them to tune in next week, but is horrible for a movie. Did you see, Super 8? So many things set-up that never payoff. Just make no goddamnned sense at all. Same thing in his Star Trek. He also had absolutely no respect for the source material and it showed. He wanted it to be his movie. Fuck him. Franchises aren't about an individual director unless, like George Lucas, the franchise originated with them. Show some respect for who brought you to the dance. Fortunately, I don't think the boys at Disney are going to let him runaway with it. We'll see.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's the only thing that's keeping me from being really disappointed before anything is done, is that Disney has a history of protecting cash cows. So I'm expecting a Star Wars version of Song of the South... --"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
