...is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO terribad.
The Day The Earth Stood Still...
What do you expect? It's Keanu Reeves. Even if he shows up in good movies, his acting is always terrible. This movie looked pretty bad, and with Keanu Reeves it makes it worse.
Uuuuuugh. I JUST decided on going to see this tomorrow with my girlfriend. Bah, I'll still go and check it out.
I thought it looked stupid from the beginning. I didn't know it was a remake, but then again I don't really watch many movies.
"Uuuuuugh. I JUST decided on going to see this tomorrow with my girlfriend. Bah, I'll still go and check it out."Please, for the love of decency and all that is sacred in cinema, do NOT go see it. Punisher: War Zone was a bad movie, but at least there were head 'splosions!!!
"How do they stop Gort without the phrase?"Klaatu touches a sphere...
I saw the new one on Wednesday, and it was sooooooo much better than the original. This one was in color. The black and whiteness of the original makes it suck and makes this one God.
"Arkthemaniac said:AHA. But I tricked you. I never saw it. You may say, "But, Arkthemaniac, you are a downright liar and a rascal!" But, it wasn't out on Wednesday! Therefore, YOU ARE TEH RASCAL!"I saw the new one on Wednesday, and it was sooooooo much better than the original. This one was in color.

<3 Keanu
<3 Jennifer
<3 Alien Destruction
I don't see how this film can fail.
(By the way, I'm an uncultured sunuvabitch and haven't seen the original yet. Expect me back in two weeks, having seen both, hating the new one)

"<3 KeanuKeanu finally gets to be the soulless, emotionless hack that he is. Jennifer Connelly deserves better than this. Alien destruction? Last ten minutes of the movie, and even then, it's fucking lame as shit. It's not War of the Worlds kind of destruction, if that's what you are hoping for. The movie is mainly those four characters saying the same shit over and over, while nothing else happens other than people wondering what the hell is invading them.

I love Arkthemaniac.

Actually, I'd probably pay extra to see that >_<;
"In all fairness, you could drag Jennifer Connelly through the mud, and I'd still pay to see it.Just get Requiem for a Dream Director's Cut and watch her heroin-addicted ass bounce on a double-ended jelly dildo...or hell, just rent half of her other movies. It's not like she's at a shortage of nude scenes or anything. She is a better actress than to stoop to this level of horseshit.

I also should have made myself more clear about my stance on films. I love 'em. Good, bad, whatever. I'll watch it and marvel and the magic of the movies. I consider myself a 'take it all in and remember the greats' kinda guy. I mean, hell, the only two films I'v ever considered walking out of were Hitch and Elizabeth: The Golden Age, and some people think those films are great =/
Whereas I have been content to sit through Max Payne and Wild Hogs, and although the films themselves sucked, I thought they were worth my money for that one shot film.
"That sounds just as terrible as Fall Out Boy's Beat It. They didn't even have the decency to *attempt* the epic solo."Well that isn't surprising. Like the other 3000 pop/"punk" bands of today, they don't actually have real fucking musical talent besides going through a standard chord progression, so of course they wouldn't be able to do the solo.
"Jayge said:Standard cord progression is a little too much for these people I think, I say one chord for the whole song, and as a bassist I don't even want to comment on the bass parts."That sounds just as terrible as Fall Out Boy's Beat It.

This generally means playing a note 8 times in a row, then switching to one of the standard progressions, such as I-V-vi-IV. That one is used in many songs, most notably "Dammit" by Blink 182 and EVERY OTHER SONG TO SOME OUT IN THE LAST DECADE.Also, you can't hear the mothafuckas."
I've seen Blood Diamond. It was good, but felt a bit heavy handed at times. I still need to check out the rest, although Sergio Leone was nothing short of masterful, even if he had to rip off Yojimbo to prove it to Hollywood.Might I suggest:
Higher LearningHouse of Sand and FogBlood DiamondandOnce Upon A Time in AmericaOkay, well...she is barely in Once Upon a Time in America, but regardless, that movie is the fucking STANDARD for moviemaking as far as I'm concerned. In-fucking-CREDIBLE movie. Sergio Leone is sorely missed.I know a bunch of people will say "oh, movie was remade and it sucked? wow, surprise"...but regardless, this was the kind of movie that could've EASILY come out good, even if it DID have Keanu in it. = /"
I've spent all day downloading a screener of this. Always been a fan of Keanu and Connelly, so i'm willing to give it a punt.
