Pierre the Great Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 my dad is watching king of all kings right now on Turner Classic Movies. I said "is it about a football team " just kidding. Seen the movie before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habsfan24 Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I just watched the movie Let's Go to Prison last night and found it pretty funny. If you like Will Arnett (and his type of humour) from Arrested Development (GOB) then I think you will enjoy this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mont Royale Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I recently rented Dog Day Afternoon, an old Al Pacino movie. Excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanpuck33 Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Way too much of the corny stuff that was used so well in small amounts in the first two movies. Too many times during the movie I was thinking to myself, "Man, this is lame." Unlike the first two, which I thought were awesome, even though I wasn't a fan of Doctor Oc.

Fanpuck33 Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 That reeks of Dead Man's Chest. Yeah, that's exactly what I was telling Noah. It was a bit longer and tried too hard to recreate the magic of the predecessors. This is a bit of a spoiler, but it won't ruin anything. In the first 10 minutes of the movie, a meteorite hits no more than 50 feet from Peter and MJ, and they don't notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's almost as bad as when Peter/Spiderman gets hit by the skytrain thingie or falls from the top of a building onto two cars in the second movie.

mathieu30 Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 (edited) I recently saw Head in the Clouds, a romantic drama, a story of two lovers who must choose between passion and conviction, between love and social awareness. Not a bad movie. A drop-dead gorgeous Charlize Theron. Charlize Theron speaking french, and charlize losing her ###. What more can you ask for?

Too many times during the movie I was thinking to myself, "Man, this is lame." Unlike the first two, which I thought were awesome, even though I wasn't a fan of Doctor Oc. This man speaks the truth. 1) I didn't like how the symbiote was portrayed as some kind of "Emo kid makeover". It was so much more then that in the comic books. 2) That jazz club scene. I almost walked out on the movie there. Venom totally saved that movie though. From his appearence to the end, it was fantastic (speaking as a webhead). The movie overall wasn't terrible though. The first two were definitely better but for about a half hour or so, it was just the epitome of suck here. The others didn't have that. That's almost as bad as when Peter/Spiderman gets hit by the skytrain thingie or falls from the top of a building onto two cars in the second movie. He's a superhero for chrissakes, of course he'll be fine after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quebecois Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Spiderman 3 = :puke: Couldnt agree more. The sad thing is that it had so much potential. I loved the Sandman and what i was really pumped up for was Venom and he didn't disappoint. The entire Jazz club scene and Emo transformation completely killed any potential the movie had though, what a shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire Jazz club scene and Emo transformation completely killed any potential the movie had though, what a shame. Yeah, there were too many villains. It was like they couldn't decide if they wanted the Sandman or Venom in the movie, so they decided to put them both in there in case there is no Spiderman 4. Harry was the only one who got decent development, and even his turn to being the New Goblin was awfully fast, though that had been building since the last movie. Sandman's development was average at best and there was no development at all for Venom. I totally agree about the emo transformation. It might have been funny had they done it briefly, like in Spiderman 2 when Peter loses his powers and is walking around campus to "Raindrops Keep Failing on My Head." Instead, they spent at least a good 15 minutes on him acting all stupid and emo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsniper Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 No development for Venom didn't surprise me, I was just expecting this movie to be an intro into Venom with Spiderman 4 totally taking over the character. Raimi didn't like the character and didn't want him in the movie, studio execs convinced him because he has such a large fanbase. After Spiderman 3, I think that came across in the movie, Raimi didn't seem to fully grasp the Symbiote concept. Wouldn't be sad if he wasn't back to direct another one but then the rest of the cast wouldn't be back either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanpuck33 Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Well with all the bad reviews I may not go now! Think Star Wars Episode II: some really good stuff, plus some bad stuff, plus some stuff that makes you wonder what the writers/producers/directors were thinking when they made the movie.

jetsniper Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Well with all the bad reviews I may not go now! I'd still go see it, just go take a leak in the middle of the movie or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanpuck33 Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Another thing that hurt the experience for me was that I saw in on an UltraScreen, 75 feet wide by 32 feet tall. That's pretty cool, but not when the people I was meeting up with saved our seats - in the second row. It was impossible to see the whole screen at once.

Yeah, I'll probably end up seeing it when it comes out on DVD, but I don't plan on wasting ten bucks just to see it on the big screen.

When watching the Jazz Club scene i thought i was seeing a remake of The Mask...just brutal. Maybe they were all thinking Jim Carrey was Peter Parker?
