You have to say one thing about it, though.

It was easily the Loudest Black and White Film I've every seen.

I liked it, sure it was no T2 but I thought it was atleast better than T3. Plus how could you not love Arnie's cameo?

He was CG. Arnold does not have the power of eternal youth.

It was good but so abstract it hurt. The book is pretty much written exactly as how the move goes, if I remember.

Ah yes, it was very abstract. I was focusing almost completely on the art direction and such, which was stunning. That's usually what I focus on in any movie I watch so the abstractness didn't really bother me. However, some of the people watching with me became totally uninterested partway through because it was too difficult to follow.

MirrorMask is wonderful. Labyrinth is better, but David Bowie. David Bowie.


I saw Up. I cried like a bitch.
Ok, I didn't cry. But I was sniffling and shit. Eyes watery as a motherfucker. Werd. Also it was funny.

I just turned on Muppets Take Manhatten. I then turned it off. It's like someone wrote a film and said "Alright, this isn't going to sell well. Let's replace this character, this one and this one with muppets, and it'll sell like hot cakes.". Kermit has yet to wiggle his arms and run. It's complete shit.

I like the third one for the action sequences. It was pretty bad either way but really disappointing compared to Judgement Day.

yeah, T2 was frankly classic, in my opinion. having a terminator on the good guys side was interesting, and it was good to watch him kick the bad guys arse. i didnt really like the cyborg he was fighting, which probably helped me cheer on the good guys.

i hated the fucking ending. it was sad.

That's the staple of the series, though. All the movies end with some sort of Heroic Sacrifice.

If anyone watched The Marine (That John Cena action movie) there's a scene where the villain, played by Robert Patrick, has one of his henchmen ask him "What are you the Terminator or somethin'?". And Patrick just gives him this looks from the car mirror.

Come to think of it, he's made a lot of jokes about his role about the T-1000 in movies...

I think the third one has two awesome moments, the first being the queer-as-fuck stripper glasses, and the psychiatrist going "IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN" and freaking out.

I wasn't really impressed by Terminator Salvation. Unfortunate, as I had very high expectations and upon hearing Christian Bale channel his Batman voice into a few scenes as John Connor...need I say more?

On the other hand, I had really no expectations for Up since I felt Wall-E is one of Pixar's best animated films. However, I would have to say it turned out to exceed my expectations on multiple levels and ranks high up out of any of their previous films.

i recently bought Hellraiser 1, 2 & 3 on DVD and just finished watching the first one.

it finally got going after the first hour (baring in mind it was only 90 mins long), but the Cenobites appearance was the one saving grace of the film. i assume the others will be better and concentrate more on the Cenobites.

Are the Hellraiser films the ones with Pinhead? Or am I thinking of something else?

just watched Hellraiser 2 & 3. third one was a bit of a let down.

they went and fucking changed the Cenobites. the original 4 were a lot better and actually looked like they were from hell, and a damn sight more horrific than someone with CD's stuck in their head (one of the replacements).

oh well. i'm still gonna get the others.

Just seen End of Evangelion, an anime movie that I found deeply profound, beautiful, thought provoking and ultimately depressing as all hell.

S'gotta be the best thing I've seen in a long long while.

I tried to watch NGE about a year ago when I first started getting into anime, but I saw the American dub of the first two episodes and the horrible voices put me right off.

The first film was the best. Hands down. The third one happened to be the biggest raping of a series that I have witnessed since Highlander 2.
