STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS - Aug 15, 2008 - 11:36am
Here I go with another damn anology:I liken some of these people to religious zealots. Lucas is to them like Jesus or Mohammad or (insert diety here). The preacher (Lucas) stands on his pulpit and says "Darth Vader is going to be a kid in Ep1, he will say yipeee! JarJar Binks will be the funniest and well liked character evar! But fear not, Chewbacca will have a cameo later!" (cue bright lights and flashes) and the congregation (the mindless fans who are never critical) yell out "AMEN!" They follow the gospel of Skywalker to the T and never question how many versions of the Han Solo action figure gets released - they just pass the cash into the collection plate and watch Lucas heal the sick with a swing of his lightsaber.Point out anything that is a bit skewed or question the judgement of following dogma and you have a jawa jihad on your hands.

But see - that's the epitome of the issue. Anything Lucas lately has brilliant special effects (and animation) and NO SUBSTANCE.

So which review should I comment under? What is the point of this movie? Nothing major as far as plot points can happen since it is before Ep3. More throw-away characters and more versions of ships/troopers all designed simply to get people to buy more toys. Pass!PS: Anybody standing in line overnight to see this one?PPS: While I am (shamefully) excited to see a live TV show - why oh why do they have to make it happen between 3-4? The way they made it sound: No Jedis... and the way they portrayed it in Ep3 it made it look as if they were all wiped out anyway.. (what happened to Vader hunting them down? And why couldn't Aayla Secura survived dammit, but I digress). Why not make it earlier in the history? I loved the KOTOR, Dark Forces, and Jedi night games because it was SW but it wasn't mired in the same old story and limitations...It seems to me that by placing it between those movies they are putting quite a limitation on where they can go...

Book Review of Star Wars Blueprints the Ultimate Collection - Aug 15, 2008 - 05:59am
And don't forget that some of the extras will be things like blueprints to Vader's toilet... he has to use the force to flush it.

Tim, Tim, Tim... Don't you know that *some* of the other blueprints you wanted will be in book 2... followed by a third book... Then a boxed set of all 3 with all including blueprints for stuff that wasn't in any of the 3 separately. Are you new to this Lucas merchandising?

OK - so where'd the Frazetta sculpture pic come from and where can I purchase it? That Frazetta pic was on the first paperback Conan book I bought - got me hooked and I never looked back. Leanu13 - I wouldn't crucify you on the tree of woe for that... Vin is not as bad as Duane to me... not sure about him either though.

If he was a cook it'd be like he made the best cheeseburgers ever - then after getting a customer base he changed it to a shit-sandwich. Most of us say "WTF MAN!?" And he'd reply "Well, I added some onions and gourmet cheese.. what's the problem?" Then others (I wonder who) would say "HE CAN MAKE A SHIT SANDWICH IF HE LIKES! YUMMY!"

OH gawd no! Even if it were possible to make something out of these overworded, drawn-out, over-extended series it would go just like the books: Start out really well (first 3 or so books) then go nowhere... Jordan dicked around and dragged this series out so long he died before he finished it... and even if he had lived another 10 years it would never had ended.

AWESOME! Simply AWESOME! With that budget they had better get someone good to direct...Sticking to Howard's originals is great news too.. I am VERY excited for this to happen. OH, and no Arnold clone please. He did OK in the 1st movie but Howard's character had a bit more depth and also looked nothing like Arnie... And let's just forget the second movie ever happened... Fucking Travesty.

It is my theory that Lucas was killed and replaced with a scientologist clone back in the 80s. L Ron was so jealous of SW that before he died he commanded his idiot followers to make it so. That is the ONLY logical explanation for why everything from that man sucksucksucksuckSUCKS after Jedi. Lets make sure and point out that the Ewok movies were made after Jedi - that's what started the suckfest. The only reason Indiana Jones 2/3 were not tainted was because the clone was cancelled out by other creative influences.. and the scientologists were only concerned with trashing SW... until Tom Cruise got mad at Indiana Jones.... hence the "nuking the fridge".

DVD Review of Dark City (Director's Cut) - Aug 11, 2008 - 07:36am
Thanks again for the info - time to drag my ass to get it... I don't know why I needed another excuse since it's up there in my favs list... Shame that Gaiman's stuff is off. I agree about the intro explaining everything.. it's dumbing it down for the slower aduience members ... apparently studios think that's needed... Blade Runner anyone?

Lucas Denies Shia Taking over INDY - Aug 09, 2008 - 10:51am
Movieguy28 and krizztan: Let me hear you "baaa" you sheep. You both yell about not "hatin" on lucas but the 2 of you can't see things with any type of clarity either. You're mindless lemmings who don't care how good/bad things are he releases... Oh, as long as there are wookies in it... well... who cares if its wookies taking a shit on the death star while pink ewoks sing bon jovi and do the hokie pokie. "HE'S GEORGE LUCAS AND HE CAN DO WHATEVER HE WANTS!!!" It's called artistic integrity. He has none. He's done a lot to contribute to advances in special effects etc... But lately since I'm sure he is surrounded by nothing but yesmen like you do nothing but nod and pretend at his ridiculous ideas.

I am right with you, only difference was that I was excited by the original trailer and was extremely let down by the followthrough. To me it was Universal's attempt to create their own Indiana Jones - and I'm sorry but BF is not even in the same continent when compared to Harrison Ford. The fact that it has spawned so many sequels is a mystery to me. This last one should kill it dead.

Hate that flick do you Hanso? I have to rent it just to see how bad it is now. And I don't want to search for all your great shark info - can we have a Hanso's Shark Page? I love Carpenter up until the Vampire flick... It's a good thing he took some time off - hopefully his batteries are recharged and he'll get back on track. Looks like he is on his way... On a side note: WTF with the bangbull shit?

These have to be the worst video games to try and make a movie out of - there really is not much narrative to work with - they're freaking fighting games! Mortal Combat had it's moments but really, come on, still cheese. Well done cheese, but in the end still cheese. Hanso - it took you to watch that movie to realize he has no shame? Do you not know about the "imdesparateforattention 2 Coreys" show?? Joeyb - just give it a few more years of going nowhere... considering whats she's being cast in it shouldnt be too much longer...

The Manic Maniac: The End of Days, on Quicktime - Jul 31, 2008 - 08:28am
I think he has a good point, but it's muddled by his need to rant about Cloverfield (funny that merch is being advertised on the page too). It's true though - people will stop to film ANYTHING if they think it's going to be their ticket to fame. I can honestly see some of these idots thinking "I'm about to die, should I run like hell or grab my cameraphone and document so I can get hits on youtube? " And the 9/11 bit is portrayed perfectly in the Family Guy episode when Lois is running for office and she just keeps saying "9/11".

10 Memorable Film Deaths by Non-Memorable Characters - Jul 31, 2008 - 08:04am
LOL Hanso - but she's actually returned from the grave a few times... and technically , can you really say her career died when she really didn't have one to begin with...Saved by the Bell? GAH!I like the list. Everyone's going to have their own opinions of what should/shouldn't be there. And of course I'll add my unneccesary 2 cents in and say: I would have moved the Pans Lab one up a bit just because of the brutality and shock of it. It takes a lot to get to me but that I was NOT ready for that first time around and was floored. Heads exploding is nasty but BOOM and it's over - that stabbing didn't have an immediate death.

I am soooo looking forward to this one.

Thanks Robert - meant the comment with a little less acidity. I am SO tempted to run and get the DC dvd.... Anyone else see "Brotherhood of the Wolf"? It definately borrows from other movies but the combination kungfu/horror/espionage/other seemed to work for me. And I'm biased as soon as Monica Bellucci shows up.

SDCC: 4 Minutes of CLONE WARS - Jul 27, 2008 - 12:00pm
It's about the execution of the story. It was poorly delivered and poorly told. But most people were amused by the bells and whistles (the effects) and didnt mind the crap story. Lucas did what was essentially a connect-the-dots to the fall of Anakin. Now that he's done such a suckass job he's letting others pad it backstories etc... I don't mind the updating - most of it was pretty good (except the Jabba/solo scene in ANH). It's his tweaking of the original story that disturbs me. Back to the fall for a second - I'm sorry, but his fall was so trite and oversimplified it's pathetic. One minute he's torn and conflicted and essentially still a good person and the next he's killing kids. Ridiculous.

Looks like it should have been called "Punisher: Mindless Violence". I have no doubt there will be very little story based on the fact they are pushing fo rthe "HEY LOOK HOW GROSS WE ARE MAKING IT" angle. Why didn't they just use "bodies hit the floor" music just to make sure the wrestling fans know its being marketed to that lowbrow audience?

Djimon Hounsou is The New THULSA DOOM - Jul 21, 2008 - 04:17pm
I agree with Almost - plus, once again - he wasn't a Conan character in Howard's story. He was a Kull nemesis. Thom Amon was Conan's nemesis and actually James Earl Jones should have had that name.... So if they do this film, is it in REH's Kull universe or the bastardized comic world of Conan?

Djimon is awesome - I'm usually psyched to see him in whatever he plays... I'm not sure how this is going to work considering this is a small niche of people who would be gung-ho to see a project centered around this character. PLus - he's got large shoes to fill - James Earl Jones was awesome as Thulsa Doom.

IMAX Teaser for HALF BLOOD Online - Jul 18, 2008 - 04:31pm
THAT WAS FRIGGIN AWESOME! I am so psyched for this film now. That Watchman teaser was NOTHING.. I repeat... NOTHING....compared to the anticipation I felt when I heard that one line of dialog. This movie is going to own son! I can't Wait To Finally see this movie!

First Full Trailer for TWILIGHT - Jul 18, 2008 - 06:03am
It's based on a teenie-girl vampire series (think Sweet Valley High meets Anne Rice) how good could it possibly be considering it'll be geared at that audience as well? More vampires walking around during the day?

It's a Bay film: Keep your expectations low... Meaning, go in with the mind of a 2 year old that is impressed with bright lights and neat sounds and you should be good to go. As soon as intelligence, logic, and common sense play any part you'll be upset.

Why the Dark Knight Owes Adam West - Jul 17, 2008 - 06:01am
Great article - I agree whole-heartedly (except for the Roger Moore/Bond comment - I HATED HIM as Bond - he was such a sissy boy). As a kid I watched West as Batman religiously (reruns in the 70s/80s of course). He was the first Batman for me. As an adult I can still appreciate it for what is was (a Batman as dark as now would have NEVER worked as a 60s TV show - it's a reflection of the time it was made) and even though I prefer a Nolan-ish Batman and a more mature comic you can't ever forget Adam West. Schumacher attempting to bring it back was a travesty. I think Nolan should at least show West in a minor cameo. Give that nod where the others failed to do it. - I mean, shit, no lines even - and certainly not in the way they keep dropping Stan Lee in every Marvel movie. Hey HAnso - there are apparently issues with the rights to the show and that's part of the reason it hasn't showed itself on DVD. It's a shame - I'd pick it up simply based on childhood nostalgia.

New Full Trailer for Frank Miller's SPIRIT - Jul 16, 2008 - 06:07am
I'm with Raulendymion. It looks like a paint/direct-by-numbers copy of SinCity in style. I understand it's Miller again, but does it have to be cloned? Sin City's look was unique but if every Miller film is going to look like this it's going to get old.

Come on - there's not a way this is PG13 - with the amount of violence that is going to take place even based on the trailer... blood on the wall in the one scene... no way. It's a freakin teaser and people expect to be shown everything and have everything explained. FFS! OK - I just read the description and am editing. I'm not sure about this "enemies beyond the natural world" thing - sounds like they are making him into a Crow-like character to give him some sort of hero angle. Hmmmm....

Graphic Novel Review of Conan: Born on the Battlefield - Jul 09, 2008 - 11:34am
"Outside of Robert E. Howard’s original stories and the fragments completed by people like L. Sprague De Camp and Lin Carter, nothing else should be considered canon" I'm biased but I agree with you. My first books about Conan were the Howard/Decamp/Carter series (the ones with the Frazetta artwork) - then I moved to others... but they were never as good. Even Decamp's and Carter's attempts were not as good as REH's - but they were passable. What's been interesting as of late is to read the unedited REH stories... I'm not sure I like the way the story is going based on the review - but I'll pick it up just to see how bad/good it is...

My guess is Starcraft Ami - they announced a while back for that... but then again their "it'll be out when its done" attitude (and thats not a bad thing) may prove me wrong. Either way I am excited for both! Blizzard hasn't disappointed me yet.

McGowen & Rodriguez Team Up for RED SONJA - Jun 27, 2008 - 05:31am
If you're a Howard purist- then no. If you're satisfied with the hack writers saying "Hey, she's a Howard character, Arnold was in the movie, he played Conan - let's just change the writer's character and put her wherever we feel like it" then yah. I give up - I think I got across what I meant. Anyway - if this marks a revival of REH's work I guess I'm for it.

The only place Red Sonja and Conan met was the comics... Howard wrote her in 16th century France - so um... I don't think they met. Then hacks just wrote her into anything Conan. So I guess technically they met.

Another example of how meritless most execs are and how braindead most of the country is. NBC will put her in because the mass idiots who read things like perezhilton.com and will tune in to see her (whether to support or tear her up). They both win and the rest of us lose. People like paris hilton and the like keep getting attention because there are lowIQs in this country that follow her every move. Wish they'd all follow her and the like off a high cliff.

Hulk Fight Breakdown: Norton vs. Universal - Jun 15, 2008 - 02:40pm
New Hulk was mediocre. There were giant stories flaws - and they way they ended it made no sense in any context to the rest of the film. As many others have commented (and I agree) Ang Lee's film attempted to make a "smart" comic book film - whether they succeeded or not is your opinion. Point is - they didn't just dumb it down for the masses. This film dumbed it down - made it ready for mass consumption... did a good job - but made it just mediocre. I'm pretty sure the way things go - if there's a sequel it will be along the lines of X3 caliber.. And how about they wait until they can get the CGI right before another attempt.

First Teaser Trailer for PUNISHER - Jun 13, 2008 - 05:18am
The scene where he's standing on the table with all the guys around it is too reminiscent of "The Crow" for me (I'm sure someone will tell me it was done before Brandon but anyway)... I feel like this type of storyline has been used up (1 lone man on a rampage due to a tragic loss) but I can always hope for a fresh approach - not sure this will be it but will cross my fingers and wait for a longer trailer.

In 15 years we can dig it back up and beat the dead corpse again."

I don't think the cameos were too much (aka Signs) but casting himself as a main character in LadyintheWater was a bit much. It's not like Mel Gibson where he started an actor and turned to director. MNS can't act. I think after the last one was critically panned and it wasn't as successful his ego MAY have been reigned in... let's hope he gets back on course to making good films.

I guess they couldn't defend themselves with their 20 sided dice. You know that's what they were doing.

Just go to Amazon.com and search for this book - one part has a video for the newest one in the series where the author explains "The first book is about finding love, the second about losing love, the third about choosing love..." at that point I either went into a coma or hulked out in anger and blacked out... either way when I came to, I read this is a series for teens and how author basically pined to be a buffy knock-off (even though she denied).. so I'm guessing this movie will end up pissing fanboys off..

DVD Shopping Bag: Indiana Jones, Box Set and Blu-Ray - May 06, 2008 - 03:52pm
The Indy DVDs are being marketed the Lucas way: Sell them once - then re-release them with a bit more stuff, then re-re-release them again with a bit more - then bend the fans over and (without vaseline) screw them a bit more with another edition. I'm glad they didn't release them on blu-ray. This way the blank media will come down in price and someone with a crack will appear and I can copy the damned things. I just bought that last edition on DVD FFS! NO doubt they are waiting for the latest Indy to finish in the theaters before blu-ray.

(ok, not really) Plus - it seemed a bit ridiculous the fight started and then... poof! Off to another thing. That could have been an amazing fight scene... I'm nitpicking. It continues to be a great show and it's annoying to think it's coming to an end.
