John, I couldn't disagree more with your post.
Popular opinion? Try my own opinion. Not that I need to back it up, but I can say I've never liked a movie that I've seen from any of the directors that I've mentioned.

I'll give him credit for making Mortal Kombat entertaining. Besides that, I don't like anything the man's ever done.

I agree. "Mortal Kombat" was very entertaining. Probably the ONLY good video game movie out there.

I was 13 when "Mortal Kombat" came out and I enjoyed it then but now I know better. I really think that the vast majority of people that defend it haven't watched it in a while. It's really awful. I was watching the sequel on cable last night for kicks (I had never seen it before) and while it was admittedly inferior to the original, there wasn't a huge drop in quality. Both "MK" movies are a bunch of wooden actors reciting cheesy dialogue in between battles with Power Rangers villains.
Don't you ever, EVER compare me to "Family Guy," you hear me Kyle? Compare me to "Family Guy" again and so help me, I will kill you where you stand!
Do you have any idea what it's like? Everywhere I go: "Hey Cartman you must like 'Family Guy,' right?" "Hey, your sense of humor reminds me of 'Family Guy' Cartman!" I AM NOTHING LIKE FAMILY GUY! WHEN I MAKE JOKES THEY ARE INHERENT TO A STORY! DEEP SITUATIONAL AND EMOTIONAL JOKES BASED ON WHAT IS RELEVANT AND HAS A POINT, NOT JUST ONE RANDOM INTERCHANGEABLE JOKE AFTER ANOTHER!

I like MK in a campy, guilty pleasure kind of way. I'm a sucker for anything with a combo of sci-fi and martial arts; so I can see why many people don't like it. It's not a very good movie at all, but it's entertaining (to me, anyway).

I wasn't too impressed when I saw AvP at the theaters. But it's grown on me after coming out on DVD.
I'd be interested in watching a sequel. It could only get better...right?

It's not fair to put Anderson and Bay in the same category as the really bad hack director as Boll. I do think Anderson is a better director than Bay (buy Bay's The Island might surprise me when I watch it on DVD this week).
AvP was a disappointment and I hope the sequel is much better (and that Anderson is nowhere near it if he wants to put out another AVP film).
