I get the sentiment, but it's such a short term criticism. Sooner or later you're going to be in the mood for that spaghetti again. And then you'll find it's even better than you remember. If Depp is right for the part and does a good job then somewhere down the line people will get past the...

Tolkien did try to rewrite the Hobbit to be more like the LOTR. It didn't work, it wasn't The Hobbit anymore, and he promptly stopped. I have concerns for the film. It will be padded, and it'll no longer be focused on Bilbo, that is disappointing to hear. I will see it, and try to just accept...

I don't care for Graham or any of the Zombie Jasons. Ted White in the Final Chapter is my favorite. He was the last threatening Jason, he had serious power.

Each situation is unique. We know a lot about Polanski's and Allen's situation, but not everything. It's very complicated especially Polanski's. Bale's is a bit easier to judge him because it's simple. Anyone damning him to hell is silly, it's just a blowup and I'm sure he's embarrased about...

I disagree. First of all those other points boil down to getting away too. But I'd say the point of Skulls is to protect the skull. They have to have the skull after this chase, if they lose it, and it did slip out of their hands, then they were screwed. None of the CG really bothered me in...

I'm not saying to enjoy this film is silly or rock-throwing worthy. I can understand someone liking it. I didn't feel my time or money was wasted watching it, especially because I knew what I was getting into to. The predator was pretty bad ass, anyway. I just think this series has been...

I have no problem with brainless fun, but when poorly concieved and executed characters get in the way of that, well that's something else. I can only turn my brain off so much until I die. Also, if they had real balls they would've shown the slaughter, and possible consumption, of the...

It's been covered countless times, but Deckard's weakness as a replicant makes sense. The film proves it's humanity that matters, and ultimately it's humanity that does prevail. Being a replicant doesn't negate humanity. Deckard's weakness as a replicant makes him more human than human. It's...

I don't think there's anything overkill about it. When you can use the unicorn scene, like Darabont has, to prove Deckard's a Human nothing is telegraphed.

The main problem with Nexus 6 are that they are so strong, so when they become uncontrolable, things get real bad. The ones in the film were built for strength as well. Rachel who is a replicant, is weaker than Deckard who you believe to be a human. Rachel seems to be next generation, let's...

I'm only familiar with the film, but I found it to be quite funny. It wasn't hilarious but some of it was so ridiculous you had to laugh. I think the whole beach fantasy sequence had the biggest laughs. And Mrs. Lovett was mostly a comedic personality.

I agree with Travis. You just answered your own question, Edwin. The whole point of the memories are that they are very specific and random. Also, doesn't it make sense for Deckard to dream of a fairytale world? Where do you think those tales came from? The people in the worst situations often...

Of course Tyrell is interested in Deckard, he wants to make a replicant undetectable by the voight-kampff test. His motto is more human than human. He's trying to figure out how to beat these questions. That can go either way for the Deckard theory too. My guess is Deckard would pass the test.

The spider being Deckard's implant makes no sense, then he would know he's a replicant. Which is something he never indicates, until the end anyway. I doubt if he knew he would actually kill the others. I will also repeat this, why would Bryant want Deckard to kill Rachel if she was a human...

Your finding things that aren't there. Plus in the film Bryant confirms she's a replicant when he says there are 4 Deckard has to kill. He implies Tyrell confirms she is a replicant. Why would Bryant want Deckard to kill a human? Imagine the legal hassle. And Deckard knows memories Rachel never...

I really couldn't care less about critical takes on films included on the DVD. They're nice but irrelevant in a way. You can find that stuff anywhere, behind the scene features are much harder to come by, especially as even-handed as this. Everyone seems pretty damn honest. Besides it's not...

Well I purchased the Ultimate briefcase set today at Best Buy, snatched it right off the cart before they could put it on the shelves. I'm really happy with the briefcase overall (# 56929). It has a nice plastic slipcover, although it's labeled with a DVD logo which sucks if I want to have the...

Yep, and I see no reason he'll ever embrace a scene selection menu.

Lynch has always seen the light on extras, he just despises commentary tracks and pieces giving a definitive viewing of a film. Look at Eraserhead, Blue Velvet, Wild at Heart, Inland Empire. They all have informative production extras. The 10-Part Multi-Angle Interview with David Lynch, sounds...

Then they don't really like the film and should deal with it. There are 5 different cuts of the film, plus nearly an hour of deleted scenes, that the digial bits has called a 6th version. It's not up to the audience to edit a film, if they don't like it their loss, move onto another film.

It'll probably be a lot cheaper. I could see it going for $40 on sale, and the briefcase being $55 or so at Best Buy. Time will tell though.

In the review thread Chad R suggested the 300 style of filmmaking as a better way to make Beowulf. I couldn't disagree more, and I felt much stronger for the characters, a better consistency and more soul in Beowulf than 300. 300 felt very flat and fake to me. And I think because it was actors...

I saw it IMAX 3D and absolutely loved it. Visually, of course, I thought it was great, gorgeous. I felt only a few moments of the dead eyes, most othertimes I could feel the soul. The eyes were very detailed and had the right amount of shine and translucency and having the actors actual eye...

I think a really interesting experiment would: 1. TPM 2. ANH 3. AOTC 4. ESB 5. ROTS 6. ROTJ Watching Anakin and Luke progress similarly. Hell, why not just play TPM and ANH at the same time and so on. Some art museum should do that. Anyway, my rankings: 1. ESB 2. ROTS 3. ANH 4...

I think if you include one prequel, because of the story, it's hard not to include all of them. The trilogies mirror eachother in a wonderful way. They show the contrast between Anakin and Luke, they took similar paths but made different choices. I think the story is incredible from I-VI, very...

Yea, that's obviously the problem. And I think why Kershner deserves a great deal of credit for TESB. He took it further than Lucas would've. Lucas set everything up, the story would've been just as great without Kershner, but he really captured the appropriate pathos TESB needed. It's a film...

I just started re-watching the Saga again (starting with TPM), and any problems those films have could've been avoided if Lucas cared more about the dialogue and acting (except JarJar, but his role just needs to be edited better). The story and it's structure are great, Palpatine's especially...

Saw III is still my favorite, but I enjoyed IV a lot. It was more like Saw III part 2, but I can live with that if it all comes together in the final film. I'm looking forward to final films.

Any a given day I'm prone to say Kubrick is my favorite director. I've seen all but 3 of his films (Spartacus, Lolita, and Killer's Kiss); I've loved them all. It's an opinion, but I think it's easy to see why people love Kubrick. His obvious technical abilities are hard to deny, the...

I saw this at the Ziegfeld. I never truly saw the film before, just bits a pieces, but was fascinated by the story surrounding the film, and was anticipating the release of Ridley's true vision. It was the best experience at the cinema in a long time. The "I want more life, father/fucker!"...
