Not that many of you care (well, probably none of you do.) but I am leaving Mania. I will be canceling my account this weekend (if I can figure it out with this new setup, no offense Mania) and sadly moving on. It has been a very fun 10 years for me and I... Read More
Cloverfield, the Collector and Disbelief - Apr 23, 2008 - 05:30pm
Well, to be honest I a a very hard critic when it comes to movies. Yet, I know how to suspend belief, how else could I enjoy FF and Hellboy? Seriously though, when directors and FANS say they want realism in movies and want to make it as real as possible, then do so. Do not make the movie half-assed because you know it can gain hype. For instance: If NEWS crews are filming the monster attacking the city, why would they want to watch footage that is barely comprehensible and rarely shows the monster? You have news crews that are looking DIRECTLY at monster? Stuff like that just irritates me. The Government will not watch 30 minutes of a party and then watch 5 mins of monster from amateur footage. Yeah, right. Another example is Batman Begins. People love this movie because it is "real" Even Nolan states that he can only do a batman movie if it is done with realism. Not gimmicks. Weird, since when is driving a TANK on a roof REAL? Not Gimmicking at all. Yet, fans eat up the hype and always will. So Hollywood is doing something right. This is why we have people who know nothing of story and real element making movies. And we will continue to get garbage. I mean we are getting a remake of Freddy, Jason (already did Michael...with the horrid Halloween remake), Critters, The Thing and now Child's Play! Come on! USE THE BRAIN PEOPLE! If you want it real, make it real, you want it original, then do so.

LOL! BHC: 4, and it will be called something like, 'To Be Or Not To Be A Beverly Hills Cop'. Or TBONTBABHC for short.
To be honest, I am not excited about this movie, but I am sick of people saying he is a bad director and "ruined" X3, I think the time given him, we got a great movie.
Oh, and I HATE remakes. I am sick of them!! SICK!
There is now a rumor of remaking Critters and Puppet Master, I mean come on, get over it. ORIGINAL.

What exactly is wrong with X3?
Ratner is a good director. Red Dragon was fantastic.
I enjoyed all three rush hour movies and I REALLY Like X3...much better than 2.
Imagine if Anderson (AVP) or Uwe Boll was considered.
I am sick of the Ratner hating.
