  • Just saw it last night. I have to say it was VERY good, and exceeded my expectations. The Voice was especially well done. Jason's Idaho was a kick! The kid playing Paul didn't suck, either! Zendaya was wasted on me though- she's the new 'it' girl, i…

  • You *could* make the argument that movies most closely resembling the novels are classic. Then that would be DN, FRWL, GF, TB, TLD, LTK & CR....
  • If I were to be absolutely, brutally honest leaving out my personal preferences, I'd have to say only Connery made classics.

  • All I know is that 4EverBonded told me she loved it. So I will too in a few days time.

  • Now that Mr. Donner has sadly passed, I assume this project has been terminated?

  • Just watched Shane Black & Fred Dekker's "The Predator" for the second time (on blu ray now), and golly my take on it has changed. Know what? I just wasn't fully prepared for the 'evolution' aspect last time. This movie rocked, and rocked HARD.…

  • An obscure 2011 film called Priest. Holy crap was this GREAT. Paul Bettany, Maggie Q, & Karl Urban-??? It doesn't get much better than this for contemporary CGI-heavy movies....
  • Stupid people will see whatever is being talked up. Dune is praised, but the majority of dopes today won't see a sci-fi movie anyway. NTTD will be talked up, and it will be a hit. Action. Bond.

  • Some_Kind_Of_Hero wrote: » Going to rewatch Requiem next. Hoping for the best as always! Honestly, it's not a bad movie if you consider the budget for it.
