Jon Favreau Opens Up on IRON MAN 2 and 3 - Sep 13, 2008 - 08:00pm
If the Mandarin is in the next one or two movies then will Fin Fang Foom make an appearance too ?
WB Decides to Reboot Darker SUPERMAN - Aug 24, 2008 - 09:56am
Is it so fucking difficult to pick up a comic book, read it, and get a sense of how a story should be told ? I cannot, for the life of me, understand how WB cannot get another Superman movie made. The last one sucked. Episodes of Justice League Unlimited on Boomerang are more entertaining.
New cast, NO Lex Luthor, Brainiac, lots of fighting.......
Is it just me here ?
PS.....Hanso, best posts on this site dude. You truly do "OWN SON " !!
10 Memorable Film Deaths by Non-Memorable Characters - Jul 31, 2008 - 11:52pm
OK......great list. Here are 2 rather famous "exploding head" scenes:
1) Opening scenes of the original "Dawn of the Dead" when the SWAT officer kicks in the door of the apartment and blows the guys head off with a 12-gauge.
2) Scanners.......a classic !
I was surprised no mentioned Scanners. AMiSHPiRATE, great call on TDK scene, that is gonna be talked about forever.
First Official Trailer for EARTH STOOD STILL Online - Jul 04, 2008 - 06:20pm
Really interesting trailer. This movie is a classic, so I am going to reserve judgement. joeybaloney....great post, as I saw "Battle for the Planet of the Apes" this morning.
Box Office: HULK Flies into Top Spot - Jun 15, 2008 - 09:54pm
Can someone please explain to me how Night gets work ? The Happening was easily one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Was it written by an 8th grader ?
Was This Hulk Really Necessary? - Jun 15, 2008 - 07:22am
WISEGUY562......DiCaprio was great in "The Departed", but I can't wrap my head around him playing Captain America. My buddy suggested Josh Duhamel from "Transformers". So I watched it again, and that's hot a bad idea, dye his hair blonde, and you have Steve Rogers.
First Look at the New Jason VOORHEES - Jun 14, 2008 - 09:04pm
SONY......that may have been your greatest post of all time. I still can't stop fucking laughing.
Was This Hulk Really Necessary? - Jun 14, 2008 - 08:11pm
I saw the Hulk today. I liked it alot, and I think there was more action than Ironman. The sound cannons were awesome. Thought the CGI was fine. I agree with a lot of posters here about what he should look like. Having said that, Lee's version sucked. I am glad that Marvel made this. Classy tribute to Bill Bixby, and the TV show. Lou Ferrigno still is huge after all these years. Great ending with Stark, and referece to Super Soldier serum. Setting up nicely for the Avengers movie. By the way, any thoughts anyone on who plays Captain America ? And I hope the suits at DC are paying attention to Marvel and how to do these movies.
New TV Spot Featuring Cameo in HULK - Jun 08, 2008 - 11:00am
Marvel doesn't really care about the hardcore comic fans, they want to sell as many tickets to this movie as possible. Iron Man was huge and it is great marketing to have this clip showing a week before the movie to generate even more buzz. We all knew the cameo was coming, so who cares. This actually makes me want to see the Hulk even more.
Box Office: Paramount Finds Memorial Day Treasure with INDY - May 26, 2008 - 04:35pm
Went to see this last night and was incredibly disappointed. I agree with almostunbiased 100%, 20 years and this is the best they could do. The spaceship launching out of the ground, a total Predator 2 ripoff....I kept looking for Danny Glover.
INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL - May 22, 2008 - 08:51pm
OK....someone please help me from this site and tell me where the reviewers come from. First, there was this comment: "But unlike the Star Wars prequels, which didn't feature any members of the original trilogy (sorry, but Yoda doesn't count!)", and thanks to archbeam for pointing out the characters from the first trilogy that were in the second trilogy. Second, there was this comment "And if you lower your expectations, then you're bound to get a lot of mileage out of Indy's fourth adventure". Why would any of us have to lower our expectations ? What are we expecting ? It is an Indiana Jones movie, I am not going there to think, just be entertained. I am expecting action, adventure, explosions, car chases, the fedora and bullwhip, etc. And this movie gets an A-, and the reviewer tells us to lower our expectations while "Iron Man" gets a B and was awesome. This site is going downhill and the reviewers shouldn't quit their day jobs, if they have one. I am going to see this movie Saturday, "expecting" to be entertained and I am quite sure I will.
IRON MAN - May 04, 2008 - 07:28pm
I just got back from seeing it, hated to wait the 2 days, but it was worth it. Great movie, great directing, great cast. Can't wait for the sequels and the extra bit at the end after the credits was awesome. Thanks to all the posters on this site who gave opinions that made me want to see this movie even more.
Alternate Endings - Mar 25, 2008 - 06:31am
themovielord.......thanks for the link. I watched the alternate ending, and liked it a lot more than the theatrical ending. This was a pretty good movie, but I thought the CGI monsters were terrible, and wished they had used reglar actors. The Omega Man was far superior to this.
The Wire: End of an Era - Mar 10, 2008 - 10:06am
This was, with out a doubt, the best show on TV. I just finished watching the last episode, and it was great. Sorry to see this show go.
TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES: The Demon Hand - Feb 27, 2008 - 09:20pm
I love this show. Now that 24 won't be on until next year, it is my favorite show. It has progressed nicely, and I like how this weeks episode tied into T2, which I watched again over the weekend. I was VERY disappointed next week is the last episode but I hope this show lasts for a long time. I do wish they could have got the original actor to play the doctor. It was a bit weird watching Bruce Davison talk to KITT on friday night then try to burn the FBI agent on Monday night. Summer Glau is fantastic.
Strike Victims - Feb 18, 2008 - 07:03pm
I tried to watch "Bionic Woman", just couldn't get into it. I think the problem with network shows is the fact that they don't show enough shows in succession, there are too many repeats. That's why "24" is so great.....NO REPEATS. Unfortunatly we won't get to see it until next year.
STAR TREK Pushed to May 2009 - Feb 13, 2008 - 08:25pm
GREAT......blockbusters are better in May. Now they can re-vamp it and finally put William Shatner in it, like he should have been fron the start.
Writers Strike Officially Ends - Feb 13, 2008 - 04:09pm
rgtchtiger......24 could show all the episodes and have a complete "day". The season was supposed to start on 1/13/2008, so they are only a month behind. 8 episodes are filmed, they could easily show a 2-part premiere on a Sunday night and a Monday night. I read in TV Guide a few weeks back that they were thinking of showing these episodes now, and picking up next year. Depending on how long the strike lasted. The producer said he wanted to show them so people wouldn't forget who Jack Bauer was. I hope they do a complete "day" now, that's my favorite show and it sucks not having it on.
Update: AMPTP & WGA Reach Tentative Agreement! - Feb 09, 2008 - 01:22pm
FINALLY !! Congratulations to the writers for getting what they deserve. Now, bring back ''24''.......QUICKLY !!
SPARTANS Grab Victory Against Rambo - Jan 27, 2008 - 10:02pm
Just came home from watching Rambo. It was very good, and probably one of the most violent movies I have ever seen. Action was great, plot was very good. Wouldn't pay to see "Meet the Spartans". I was suprised that "Cloverfield" dropped so much. Pretty slim pickings for movies coming up.
Michael Bay Prepping TRANSFORMERS 2 - Jan 20, 2008 - 10:03am
I have been on this site for a while. I give my 2 cents every once in a while, and read the postings. There is something I can usually bet my paycheck on, that posters like LOTRSUXS, Sonyman, and metalwater, 99 out od 100 posts will be negative. Everyone has an opinion, thats what makes America great. But I have to say this, LOTRSUXS, your a total fucking asshole. The posts on this thread were uncalled for.
CLOVERFIELD - Jan 20, 2008 - 09:50am
I saw this yesterday. And I thought it was fantastic. Shaky-cam was a bit much in a few parts, but I have no complaints. This movie is going to do well, and I hope that they "find" more lost footage from another city and have a sequel. Great movie, and for anyone who hasn't seen it, pay attention at the end when they are filming at Coney Island looking at the water.
And on another note......if you haven't seen the movie and have no interest in it, and are not going to watch it, then save us the negative posts.
Cube Wants a 'Hardcore' A-TEAM Movie - Jan 11, 2008 - 04:15pm
SONY......saw it last weekend, great movie. You should check it out. the hitman in the movie is the creepiest killer I have ever seen.
As for who should play B.A.; VING RHAMES.
Cube Wants a 'Hardcore' A-TEAM Movie - Jan 10, 2008 - 09:08pm
SONYMAN, I love Don Cheadle as an actor but can't see him in that role. Definitly Ving Rhames could pull it off. If they wanted to put in an actor for a real draw, cast Matt Damon as Face, that would boost the box-office. SONY, I have to ask, did you see "No Country For Old Men" and if so, what did you think ?
Two New TV Spots for CLOVERFIELD Online - Jan 10, 2008 - 04:30pm
Brendan, I seem to recall another movie that had inexperienced actors.......STAR WARS, and that turned out OK. I'm going into this expecting a monster movie, nothing more. Loud noises, explosions and probably bad acting. If I get anything more out of it, great. I miss those days when I was a kid and I could go to the theatre and watch, as I would come to realize as an adult, really bad Godzilla movies of the early 70's. Not as bad as the Tri-Star Godzilla though, but I miss those days. I also am very curious to see what this monster looks like. The studio did a great job of keeping this a secret.
Update: Oil Platform destroyed by CLOVERFIELD Monster - Jan 07, 2008 - 02:26pm
i don't know whether to comment on the movie, oil rig disaster clip, or the skank that tried to insult us. gauleyboy....i'm with you, Sonyman would have had fun with this.
Nominee "No Shows" at the GOLDEN GLOBES - Jan 05, 2008 - 07:24pm
Hey guys, lets look at the big picture. If these award shows are both flops, and they will be if no actors show up, that will put a lot of pressure on the studios. This means that there could be an end to this soon.....hopefully. The studios put a lot into these awards shows, and while I agree, who cares about them, but if this gets the strike settled sooner then fine. Remember, no movies are gonna get made if this keeps up. And while some of these writers are well off, most are average working guys like a lot of us who post on this site. Fairs fair....the studios make a bundle. I am a bit biased, as I am a Union President where I work, but like Unions or not, these writers, for the most part, are getting screwed. I want this strike settled soon, if I don't get to see 24 this year I am gonna go nuts, and Fox won't start it until they can run all 24 episodes in a row. Am I selfish.....HELL YES.
Five TV Spots for CLOVERFIELD - Dec 31, 2007 - 12:56pm
SONYMAN, were you the only one laughing in the theatre? Because the one I was in, which was packed for the midnight showing of Transformers, was oohhing and aahhing about that trailer. What exactly do you like anyway ? I have pretty high expectations of this movie, will be there opening weekend, and cannot wait to see it. How the hell is a mutated whale supposed to walk anyway, by using hin big back flipper ?
DARK KNIGHT Trailer Officially Hits the Web - Dec 17, 2007 - 11:01pm
theCOLLECTOR has spoke everyone.......time to shut down this thread. That was the dumbest statement I have read on this thread today....you are bashing a movie that you have never seen, nor will you ever see. Wow, i've read a lot of stupidity today, but that takes the cake.
DARK KNIGHT Trailer Officially Hits the Web - Dec 17, 2007 - 11:53am
GREAT POINT.....but I don't think they will ever go away, they just come on and bash pretty much everything that appears on this site. I cannot remember the last time I saw a posting from any of those 3 that was positive, or when they actually liked something. I still do not get how people think the Joker is supposed to be funny, he's a freaking homicidal maniac who takes pleasure in killing people. You want funny, watch reruns of Seinfeld.
DARK KNIGHT Trailer Officially Hits the Web - Dec 17, 2007 - 07:54am
gauleyboy...........BRAVO, I agree. metalwater, if you want a campy, funny Joker, watch the Adam West series. If you want the true essense of the Joker, read the "The Killing Joke" again...there wasn't one "funny" part in that. The Joker is meant to be a manical killer, not Rodney Dangerfield telling us jokes. I am stoked about this movie and I agree that this movie is gonna kick ass. And another thing, the Batman in this movie, very closely resembles the Batman from the JLA animated series, dark and brooding. This movie is gonna rock !!
New Look at Ledger's JOKER - Nov 27, 2007 - 10:34pm
Awesome, cannot wait for this movie. So far, so good. Hey collector, if that picture doesn't look like the Joker, then who does it look like......catwoman ???? WOW.
CLOVERFIELD Trailer #2 - Nov 19, 2007 - 09:45pm
HOLY SHIT !!! That was awesome. I'm there opening night. Shakey cam, while a bit unsettleing, adds realism and a sense of urgency. I can't freaking wait to see this movie. Thanks Pony !!!
SAW IV Cuts Out the Competition - Oct 28, 2007 - 07:47pm
I just returned home from seeing Saw IV. The franchise has run it's course. This movie was confusing, and did not live up to the level of the first three movies. I walked out of the movie very disappointed. However, as the movie did well, we will see Saw V this time next year.
30 DAYS OF NIGHT Takes Top Spot - Oct 22, 2007 - 08:02am
This movie was fantastic.....and the vampires kicked ass. I hope they make a sequel.
SARAH CONNOR Begins Between 24 - Oct 17, 2007 - 09:48pm
SONYMANswallows..........for someone who posts like he is an expert and know-it-all, you don't know shit. Fox has done this with 24 for a few years, it is one of the highest rated shows they have, they are re-vamping it this year due to the lackluster year they had last year. They are not about to cancel this show. The premire day has nothing to do with Simpsons or Family Guy fans. It is refreshing that 24 runs straight through with no breaks from January to May. Do you think before you post ?
Cullen Confirms TRANSFORMERS Trilogy - Oct 13, 2007 - 09:05am
FANTASTIC !!! This movie rocked, as I went in expecting exactly what I got, giant robots, cheesy dialoge and LOTS of explosions. This movie is a cash cow and I hope they make 5 more. It was way better than Spiderman3 or POTC. Those of you who never saw it shouldn't be allowed an opinion about it. And for those of you, like maverickrenegade, if you are so displeased with Hollywood, and so frustrated with the movies being made, and are so much smarter than the people writing and green-lighting these movies, then go out to Hollywood and get a job in a studio and make better movies. It kills me how so many posters on this site bitch about Hollywood and what comes out. This is the norm and I can't see a change coming down the pike for a long time. If you don't like the movie then don't go freaking see it, plain and simple.
New 1-18-08 Update & Site Found - Oct 01, 2007 - 07:23pm
When I saw this trailer with Transformers, I was stoked....thought it could be a new Godzilla movie to make up for the piece of crap that Sony tried to pass off as Godzilla about 10 years ago. I have to adsmit that this ad campaign is a little boring.....if Abrams wanted to excite all of us, he should PUT OUT ANOTHER FREAKIN' TRAILER !! That would get everyone excited. It's been 4 months already and all these speculations and possible tie-ins are getting rediculous. Lets see a small shot of this beast or something more than some pictures, clues and a roar. For Christ's sake i'm not Charlie Chan.
Scott Farrar Talks TRANSFORMERS 2 - Oct 01, 2007 - 07:14pm
gauleyboy420........I am with you 100% !! This movie kicked ass, it was better than Spiderman3, POTC3, etc. Was my favorite movie of the year. Can't wait till the sequel, and to see all the naysayers eating crow with you. For those of you who saw it once and really liked it, see it again....it was better the second time around !!
Fox Reveals Day 7 Details for 24 - Sep 20, 2007 - 08:19pm
Ponyboy.....that was brilliant !!! thanks a lot. This is one of the best shows on TV, and last year was a bit of a dissappointment. having said that, I can't wait for the premiere. The changes will breathe life into the show, and I hated the fact that Tony was killed in day 5. This is awesome.

Latest AVP:REQUIEM Trailer Hits - Sep 20, 2007 - 08:10pm
This movie looks freaking awesome! I can"t wait until Christmas now. Sorry Sleeper, no way this movie tanks, did you stop to think that maybe this movie will ressurect these franchises ? If the movie does well, than maybe Fox will greenlight more movies and jack up the budgets. Bigger budget, better directors and actors. By the way, more times than not, the posters on this site are usually wrong when they predict a movies failure 4 months before the opening. I had to read about how "Transformers" was going to be failure (and suck) by a number of you for months before that was released, and we all see how that worked out. I realize we all have the right to our opinions, but man, it drives me nuts when people say a movie sucks, or going to suck, based on a 2 minute trailer. Amazing !
HALLOWEEN Slashes Labor Day Record - Sep 04, 2007 - 07:57am
Narpin: You call your blow up doll your "wife", thats cute, however your narrow-minded views are the reason you are in the minority here. This movie isn't "Jaws" or "Star Wars", it was what it was, a re-telling of a classic horror story. Rob Zombie never claimed he was trying to make another "Citizen Kane", he just wanted, and pretty much pulled off, making a good movie. Funny how all you can do is bitch about all the "idiots" who saw the number 1 movie in America. Let it go jerk-off, you didn't want to see it, didn't go see it, and now all you can do is whine because the movie went to number 1. This is America, where we have choices, quit trying to push your small, narrow-minded views on the rest of us, let us enjoy the movies we want to go see, and go back to watching "Maid in Manhatten" with your mom.
HALLOWEEN Slashes Labor Day Record - Sep 03, 2007 - 04:39pm
Hey narpin......I went to see this movie because I am a fan and wanted to. I had a choice, and I CHOSE to see it. I, along with a several MILLION other people who also chose to see it. I liked it, thought it could have better in spots but overall I thought it was a good movie. I don't like being called an idiot, I wasn't duped into seeing this movie. So get off your soapbox and go change the sheets in your mother's bed.
Details of JJ Abrams' 1-18-08 Emerge - Sep 01, 2007 - 08:47pm
Metalwater......why all the hate ? Can't you just let the fans be fans of the genre and keep your opinions to yourself ? Everyone of your posts is negative. Were not being force-fed anything, we saw a trailer that piqued our interest and a lot of us are looking forward to this. Personally, I hope the U.S. gets it's own "Godzilla", as the U.S. version was a piece of shit movie. The marketing for this movie so far is brilliant. Can't wait until 1-18-08 !!
HALLOWEEN - Aug 31, 2007 - 03:30pm
mlauzon......didn't Laurie Strode chop off Michael's head at the end of H2O? And then they made Ressurection? WOW...you freaking dolt, just because a charater "dies" doesn't mean he won't be back in a sequel. Keep the spoilers to yourself jerkoff and let EVERYONE see the movie before you tell us the ending.
Keanu Reeves Helps the EARTH STAND STILL - Aug 27, 2007 - 07:52am
One of the GREATEST sci-fi movies of all time being remade starring one of the WORST actors of all time. They could have cast a house plant with better results. WOW !!
New HALLOWEEN Trailer - Aug 01, 2007 - 06:18pm
Freaking awesome !! This movie is gonna rock, I cannot wait to see this. Iceman....I agree, always bothered me that they kinda skimmed over the whole asylum part of his life.
Spacey Returns as Luthor in SUPERMAN - Jul 11, 2007 - 06:57am
Jarrod,
If I saw you in person I would have no problem at all telling you how much SR sucks. It was a complete re-tread of the original, and it made me sad watching it how much I missed Christopher Reeve as Superman. I had to go home and watch the original Donner film to get the bad taste out of my outh from SR. Forget about Luther and Zod, quit re-treading the same villians. Bring on Braniac or Doomsday, THAT would be a blockbuster.
JJ Abrams Talks 1-18-08 "Cloverfield" - Jul 10, 2007 - 07:00pm
I watched this again, it does sound like the guy yells..." It's a lion". This is freaking awesome, wish this movie was coming out on Labor day now. Bravo to all you maniacs, a lot of good ideas and insight on this topic, give yourselves a pat on the back. And by the way, Godzilla, the Toho version, not the shitty American version, could totally knock the head off the Staue of Liberty.
JJ Abrams Talks 1-18-08 "Cloverfield" - Jul 10, 2007 - 11:59am
This whole marketing scheme is a stroke of genius. There is a huge buzz about this movie and I can't wait until 01-18-08 to actually see it now. I still hope it is Godzilla, however that hope is fading. I saw the trailer twice in the theatre last week and it really does give you a feeling of doom. Brilliant !
New CLOVERFIELD Site Online - Jul 04, 2007 - 03:30pm
Great marketing, the whole theatre I was in was buzzing about the trailer. I pray it is Godzilla. Looking forward to this and all the secrecy makes it even better.
TRANSFORMERS - Jul 03, 2007 - 02:48am
I just got home from a packed midnight showing.....WOW !!! is all I can say. This movie raised the bar and left Spiderman 3 and POTC in the dust. Forget about it folks, this is the best movie of the summer. For all you posters, like metalwater, quit freaking analyzing how everything is made and try to just sit back and enjoy the movie. Movies are made to entertain us, and this movie was freaking entertaining as hell. By the way, was anyone else VERY intrigued about the J.J. Abrams trailer (if you saw it) ? Got my attention, anyone have any info on it ?
LIVE FREE OR DIE HARD - Jun 27, 2007 - 03:48pm
OK, maybe someone can help me understand how this movie gets a c+, when almost every other movie, including the piece of crap Spiderman 3, usually gets a B on this site. The trailer for this movie was more entertaining than Spiderman 3, and I will bet anyone 500 bucks that Bruce Willis doesn't dance once, let alone twice, in this movie.
Surfer Flies Into A Fantastic Weekend - Jun 18, 2007 - 11:53am
I went into this movie not expecting alot, and was very pleased. I thought this movie was entertaining, had a good story, and the effects were good. I actually liked it alot better than Spiderman-3, as the dance scene in this movie actually FIT into the movie, unlike Spiderman-3. Well done, and the ending plays nicely to another sequel.
A Look at Ledger as the Joker - May 21, 2007 - 09:40pm
Here we all go again, first it was the Transformers pics, now it is The Joker pic. Personally, this is creepy and I really don't like looking at it for very long time. I think this is going to be a very dark, disturbed, and evil Joker.....BRAVO !! Those of you who posted that they want to see The Killing Joke version of the Joker.....BRAVO also. Cannot wait to see this movie.
New TRANSFORMERS Trailer - May 18, 2007 - 11:51am
WOW....That is all I can say. I think this movie and trailer has been one of the most hotly debated ones on this site. I, personally, enjoyed the cartoon and cannot wait for this movie. Is it going to be perfect, no, but Michael Bay makes popcorn movies people, thats it.....so expect explosions and loud effects. I though Spiderman 3 sucked ass, so I hope this movie fills the void that that movie left me with. And MetalWatero, wow dude, you gotta chill out and take a Paxil. Bottom line, if you can't wait too see it, great, I know i will be in line for the first showing, if you have reservations, then go see it and then judge it. I predict this movie is in the top 5 Box Office at the end of the year.
28 Weeks Later… - May 14, 2007 - 11:55am
I really liked this movie. It told a great story in a good length of time, and sets up perfectly for a sequel. I thought it was ALOT better than Spiderman 3. Hope this story continues.
Dunst talking about "Spider-Man 4" again - Apr 25, 2007 - 07:56am
Bravo Ponyboy !!! I really wish she would shut up, God she is annoying !! These movies are raking in the cash because of Spiderman, NOT because of either her or Tobey. Do you think people went to the Matrix movies because of Keanu Reeves ? NO, it was because of the concept and the effects. I predict at least 2 more movies in this franchise, if Dunst and Tobey are on board or not, these movies are a cash cow and they are gonna get every last drop of milk.
Scott Derrickson directing "The Day the Earth Stood Still" - Apr 11, 2007 - 07:58am
This is one of the greatest sci-fi movies of all time, and is a true classic. I really hope this guy pulls this off. snallygaster, I agree, this guy really doesn't have a body of work to judge, so I will keep my fingers crossed. The way Hollywood greenlights movies these days, any of us posters on Mania could could work for the studios, probably for a lot less money, and come up with more original ideas.
Ferrell wins gold back to back! - Apr 08, 2007 - 11:47pm
I just got back fron Grindhouse, it was long but was a lot of fun. "Planet Terror" was definitly better than "Deathproof". The fake trailers were aslo great. Wessmith1966, I agree, Rose McGowen was smokin' hot in "Planet Terror".
"Superman Returns" sequel on schedule - Mar 19, 2007 - 07:47am
I really hope this one is better than Superman Returns, that was a letdown. BRING ON BRANIAC !!
Gerard Butler joins "Escape From New York" - Mar 13, 2007 - 02:22pm
This cannot happen !! Escape From New York is a cult classic and one of my 5 favorite movies of all time. There is no one, with all due respect to Mr. Butler, that can replace Kurt Russell as Snake. I really hope this movie doesn't get greenlighted. "YOUR THE DUKE.....YOUR THE DUKE...!!!" One of the greatest clips, Donald Pleasance cannot be replaced either......COME ON !!
Sparta! Let’s break records! - Mar 12, 2007 - 11:43am
I saw this movie twice over the weekend. It ranks as one of my top 5 of all time and I am glad it did so well at the box office. This movie was visually stunning and Gerard Butler gave a performance that will be talked about for years to come. By the way, where is kjsucks6996, who has been posting for a month how awful this movie looked and wouldn't do well at the box office ??
"300" makes $27m on Friday! - Mar 10, 2007 - 06:41pm
I saw this movie this afternoon, and all I can say is AWESOME !! This movie kicks ass on a new level. Gerard Butler did an amazing job. I thought the story was great, the effects were great, and the fight scenes were fantastic. Going back to see it again tomorrow. Highly recommended.
"300" Contest - Mar 08, 2007 - 11:48am
kjsucks6996..........you are a freaking loser.
"Shrek the Third" poster - Mar 05, 2007 - 10:45pm
This movie is gonna rock...................DONKEY !!! I love this series. By the way, kjsucks6996, you are an idiot.
Tobey Maguire done with "Spider-Man"? - Mar 05, 2007 - 10:39pm
WHAAAAA.....I don't wanna be typecast, WHAAAAA.....I don't think they can do a fourth movie. What a whine ass. He's never gonna get that kind of money for doing roles other that Spiderman. Everyone knows this movie is gonna blow up and do HUGE numbers, and the studio is gonna want a 4th movie. There are other young actors who can fill the roll. KJ is right, the other actors have done a lot of movies in the time these 3 Spiderman movies came out, why hasn't Tobey? Dude could name his price for the fourth movie if he wants, just don't let another director take the helm for the next one.
New "Spider-Man 3" Trailer with 300 - Mar 03, 2007 - 12:03am
kjsucks6996.......you are a dope! Plain and simple. How you can say that "300" is gonna be a "piece of shit" or "crapiest movie of the year" is puzzling to me at best. How do you know this? Did your magic 8-ball tell you? I have never heard someone be so down on a movie THAT THEY HAVE NOT SEEN YET !!! But then again, you liked Reno 911-Miami Beach, which offers everyone an explanation into your movie instinct. WOW ! By the way...mlaforcer, way to go with the cock smoker reference, beautiful !!
WB plans "Justice League" - Feb 26, 2007 - 09:33pm
No way this can get made, although it would be awesome if they somehow pulled it off. But I know we would all be disappointed. If they DID do it, Red Tornado and Hawkman better be included.
Weekend Box Office Report: February 23-25 - Feb 26, 2007 - 09:25pm
kjsucks6996..........you LIKED Reno911-Miami AND you think 300 doesn't look good ??? mlaforcer, I am totally with you about this guy. Reno-911 was the worst movie I saw in the past year, i've laughed more at a funeral. And for 300, are you kidding, this is the best looking movie to come out in 2007, with the exception of Spiderman3. WOW, you really should stop posting !!
Rob Zombie shows off Michael Myers - Feb 26, 2007 - 06:56pm
That is what makes America a great country......everyone can have an opinion. The worst thing that happened to the Halloween franchise was the SEQUELS, they wern't scary, lost any originality, therefore, for Halloween fans, this could be the best thing yet. Maybe RZ will make a good movie, maybe he wont, we will have to wait and see. Personally, I am looking forward to this, the gory direction is a good turn. A lot of you are right, the recent remakes have been crap, and have taken some of the greatest horror movies and made them worse. I like the picture, and can't wait to see this movie, the original is 30 years old and that mask still gives me the creeps, so bravo to RZ for sticking with the original.
Weekend Box Office Report for February 16-18 - Feb 19, 2007 - 09:52pm
I went into the theatre to see Ghost Rider and wasn't expecting much..........I was pleasantly suprised. I thought it was a very good movie, good effects, only bad part was it a bit slow in the beginning. 44.5 Million dollars on opening weekend is hardly a "bomb". Expect the sequel in 2009.
"24: 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM" - Feb 16, 2007 - 11:50am
I think this is STILL the best show on TV. Having said that, this season has a few episodes that lacked in action, but I feel that James Cromwell's portayal of Jack;s father is great, and his evilness kind of threw me for a loop after we learned Jack's brother was the "mastermind" of last year. I like where the character development has gone, and can't wait for the final showdown with Jack and his dad. I do wish Donald Sutherland could have played Jack's fater, that would have been great. However, I simply love Monday nights and keeping track of Jack's body count.
Cage and Mendes onboard for "Ghost Rider" Sequel - Feb 13, 2007 - 10:41pm
exfan......in total agreement with you, Daredevil sucked, and Ben Affleck should have his SAG card revoked. As far as Ghost Rider, this looks interesting, but the movie company took great liberties in putting a lot of comedy-like and corney shots in the trailers, like they were intentionally going for a laugh. I think they should have played up the action. Ghost Rider is an obscure comic, not like Spiderman or Batman, so it will be interesting to see who goes. Hey people, if Norbit can do 30 milllion and take the #1 spot, Ghost Rider should at least do that and then we can expect a sequel.
Adrien Brody is "The Hulk"? - Feb 13, 2007 - 12:04pm
If this movie's final title is "The Ultimate Hulk", then we would have to assume it is based on the Ultimate Universe Hulk. If you read The Ultimates or saw either DVD, then this casting is PERFECT. I'm glad to see studio's starting to get the casting right for these movies as they screwed the pooch with "Superman Returns". Bravo to the hero casting of this movie and Iron-Man.
New "Transformers" Pictures - Jan 24, 2007 - 11:29am
I totally agree with you madmaniac999, someone else could have butchered it. The cartoon is 20+ years old, so they can't possibly base the movie completely on that. Optimus Prime is freaking amazing !! Still don't have a clue as to what Megatron is or will be, but I don't care, this movie is gonna rock and I hope there are sequels. BRING BACK SOUNDWAVE !!
Weekend Box Office Report for January 19-21 - Jan 22, 2007 - 11:42am
I saw The Hitcher last night. It was absolutly horrible. The original was a much better movie, this "remake" had no redeemable qualities to it. I would have rather watched paint dry. Who keeps greem-lighting all this crap ??!!??
"24: The First Four Hours" - Jan 17, 2007 - 09:31pm
Best show on TV....Period. Shot Curtis dead, then the nuke goes off....WTF !! Jack is pissed now and I can't wait for next Monday.
Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and Terence Stamp join "Get Smart" - Jan 17, 2007 - 09:26pm
Carell is great. This has potential....I can hear it now "missed it by that much". EvilMonkey....thanks alot, I forgot about Hymie. Now I REALLY want to see this movie.
"Superman Returns" sequel: Shorter, tighter, action-packed - Jan 17, 2007 - 09:12pm
Renderman72...you are insane. Christopher Reeve WAS Superman. If you watch SR and then watch the Superman and Superman II, there is NO comparison, as they were both WAY better. This sequel can only get better because that is the only way in can go. The movie was dull, little action, and cardboard acting by Kate Bosworth. Bring in Braniac or Doomsday, and about 90 minutes of action ( guest appearance by Batman ???) and that would be a movie. Spiderman and Batman Begins blew this movie out of the water. And noblenonsense....the reason they make movies is to make money, in case you forgot.
"Spider-Man 3" 12 inch Venom Figures - Jan 13, 2007 - 11:34am
I'm with madmaniac999 here. This looks great, and if this is in the movie them i'm even more excited about it. Remember, the comics can't always translate to the big screen exactly as they do in the comic. How many times do we need to rehash this when a movie character looks different than the comics do.
"Flash Gordon" Gets a Green Light - Jan 13, 2007 - 11:27am
The re-make movie is still a classic, even though it was very cheesy. "Flash Gordon, Quarterback, New York Jets"! That was my favorite line. Maybe Sci-Fi will make him a hockey player in this series....I can hear it now, "Flash Gordon, Left-Wing, Columbus Blue Jackets". I can't wait.
"Transformers" Megatron Image - Jan 12, 2007 - 11:41am
I have NO idea what this will turn in to. I saw the most recent trailer and was excited about the movie. Optimus Prime is awesome, however, I STILL don't know what this will turn in to. WHERE IS SOUNDWAVE ?!?!?!
Platinum Dunes working on "Friday the 13th" remake - Jan 09, 2007 - 11:45pm
By the way..................I think the first 4 victims should be Ryan Seacrest (decapitated), and those 3 annoying blondes from Playboy's "Girls Next Door" (topless of course), just an idea for the director.
Platinum Dunes working on "Friday the 13th" remake - Jan 09, 2007 - 11:38pm
Start at the beginning, show him drown, show his mother get her head chopped off (both in the opening credits), and then have 2 solid hours of Jason, in the classic goalie mask, on a bloody, murderous rampage with a death toll in double figures. R-rated with no holds barred. Throw in some scenes that will make people scream outloud, a group of half-naked babes, and you have a movie. I think this is what is lacking in all these so-called "horror movies". Fans want to be shocked, and scared to death.....period. If these directors could get this point, better horror movies would be released. Who's with me on this ?
Kiefer Sutherland talks "24" film - Jan 09, 2007 - 11:30pm
OK everyone.....this IS the BEST show on TV....Period. Lets talk about about far-fetched....Lost for starters is the most far-fetched show ever. Once you start watching 24 you are hooked, and Fox does us all a favor by starting the season in January and running straight through with no breaks. Those of you who want to but don't, do yourselves a favor and watch, you will not be disappointed. It didn't win Emmy's because it sucked. A lot of main characters were killed off last year, so new fans this season should be OK. With out a doubt, hands down, the BEST hour of TV each week. Jack Bauer Rules !!
Weekend Box Office Report: Christmas at the Museum - Dec 27, 2006 - 11:44am
Saw "Rocky Balboa" on Saturday, and was very pleased. A great movie, lots of nolstalgia for Rocky fans, and a fitting good-bye to the Itallion Stallion. Saw "Night at the Museum" last night and was pleasantly suprised, was a very entertaining movie, was going to see "Black Christmas" and glad I changed my mind. Recommend both movies.
McDowell Set as Loomis - Dec 27, 2006 - 11:36am
I am excited about this movie, all the sequels sucked except Part 2. I am glad Zombie is taking this in a new direction, and McDowell is a great start. Skoora, I would disagree that Halloween is overrated, it still stands as one of the best horror flicks of all time, anything put out today is overrated.
"Fantastic Four" Trailer Online - Dec 27, 2006 - 11:31am
Saw the trailer last night with "Night at the Museum", great trailer, Surfer was awesome. While the first FF movie wasn't "Spiderman", it was semi-entertaining. Lets hope the trailer for the sequel is a taste of what the movie will be like.
First look at Transformers CGI - Nov 28, 2006 - 05:58pm
I was a huge fan of the cartoon, and wish the movie could be just like that. However, this movie has to be made to reflect 2006, not 1986. I just wish Soundwave was in this movie, he was the coolest of all the Transformers. Lets all wait and see how it plays out, either we will all be very disappointed or very pleased.
Is this what Hanso meant when he said "The Dark Knight owns" all this time ?? He was right then.
