What the hell... They actually made movie about that!?! I remember my friend having some of those toys but I never actually knew their origin!:lol: Now that I gotta watch...
 
Toxic Avenger - Simply Awesome

This was 80's at its best... B movie at it's finest. I don't know why but I really like the old cheesy gore, it's just so different from modern movies where everything is always CGI... The plot and acting were so bad, that it simply becomes enjoyable, especially the double dubbbing for toxies voice with at least two different actors. A prime example when bad becomes awesome... Thanks for maurocds for mentioning this!:thumb:

--------------

resident evil (some crap tittle) 2012
5/10

wow, even more generic than the last one

average teen will enjoy it
plot null
many explosions and bullets, crap cgi, forced 3d effects
useless movie to milk the franchise even more

really, they had to put every RE character in this movie in order to get more people to watch it (i was forced by a girl to watch it), crap movie is crap

and there are more movies coming

I've seen the first Kickboxer at least... The one with Van Damme, didn't really know there were sequels.

Try the animations, Resident Evil: Degeneration and Resident Evil: Damnation(just came out so might not be available yet), they're actually related to the games and they also have characters from the games and they do more than just watch Alice kill things!:lol: They're much better than the live action movies...
 
Resident evil retribution 7/10

the move has Leon and Ada Wong from Biohazard4
Wong looks very authentic but leon does not look the same, he looks bad and you wont want to look at him at all
Alice look very beautiful in this one [some scenes not all the movie]
Story is not something to look forward to
Element of surprise is there, which is nice
This movie is more like a link between the older movies and the next resident evil
 
7/10 ? It does not deserve even 5. Lazy plot, lazy screenplay, lazy actions scenes with some raped from RE4. Lazy director, etc....Not even 4/10 I say. This Resident evil franchise needs a reboot. And fast.
 
Like I said, try the animations people...

---------------------------------------------------

Men in Black 3 - 7,5/10

Decent, although it doesn't really do anything new... It also ruins the idea of K having a wife outside his job which I believe is it's greatest downfall, not least because O doesn't even mean anything to the plot in a greater sense... She's just there. Otherwise the movie does well but like I said, jokes are already old. Wacky aliens, K and Will Smith, that's the whole MIB in a nutshell.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prometheus - 6/10

So much potential, so much fail... Would've been better as a standalone scifi horror without any connection to the Alien movies. Once again it's riddled with people you don't give two s**ts about and bunch of complete idiots, what's with scifi movies or horror movies in general when they always need to have idiotic characters. It's like, "Oh look, that guy I didn't care or know anything about died... Shocking." ...I kinda hope they make a sequel though, as I'd hate to end it like that.
 
Does people smoke weed today or what ? Prometheus 6/10 ? :p
Idiots ? I guess you are talking about Milburn and Fifield ?
I found it utterly stupid how much risks the so called scientists took even though they were on the other side of the freaking galaxy without any chance of getting help. Not to mention most of those risks were taken after they found that it was truly done by aliens...which meant they were risking the discovery of the millennia. Truly marvelous.

The first major stupidity was when the group takes off their helmets inside the dome. Even if the air there was breathable, it still doesn't mean that there aren't any diseases or any other nasty things in it. They were underground damn it! In moist enviroment! Perfect hatching place for all kinds of airborne pores and whatnot... Even if the first moron doesn't die right after he takes his helmet off, it doesn't make it safe! But still the other "scientists" follow his example...

The robot(David was it?) infects one of the group with that unknown "thing" which might get the whole group killed, which would make the trip meaningless and a huge waste of money. I do realise that he was acting on orders but it still seemed stupid considering he had no idea of it's effects... It could've ended infecting all of the crew and even possibly Weyland himself!

The captain leaves the bridge to get laid... Seriously? They have two men trapped inside an alien structure, with possibly living aliens in there but he goes to get some ass? ...Wow.

The guy within the dome, playing around the alien snake... You seriously deserved that tentacle rape you moron.

They notice one of the crew having serious infection and they try to bring him back?oO Even after he literally starts to melt? Seriously? You're on the other side of the galaxy, if you get that infection to your ship, you're all dead! I think that "leader" chick was correct with her flametrhower there. Actually, I liked her as the wisest one of them all...although she gets squashed like a bug because she doesn't realise she could've moved to the side! That death was the most dumbest of them BTW, it's almost like:
"Hey we still need to kill her, but we don't have time!"
"Meh, after she does a meaningless escape from the ship before it explodes, then we can have her get squashed the alien ship..."

The "main character" performing a surgery on herself by herself with a machine that doesn't even have the right functions for it... Why not just take a rusty knife, dip it in the toilet and cut your stomach with that?

And why did the alien guy attack the woman in the escape pod? How did he even know she was there? He should've just gone to the other ships and leave her there... Damn, I'm even critisizing the aliens here!

So yeah, I did not like the movie...
 
My answer: www.prometheusforums.net.

Well, as it would be surely difficult to search in an entire forum for some precisions:

I found it utterly stupid how much risks the so called scientists took even though they were on the other side of the freaking galaxy without any chance of getting help. Not to mention most of those risks were taken after they found that it was truly done by aliens...which meant they were risking the discovery of the millennia. Truly marvelous.

The first major stupidity was when the group takes off their helmets inside the dome. Even if the air there was breathable, it still doesn't mean that there aren't any diseases or any other nasty things in it. They were underground damn it! In moist enviroment! Perfect hatching place for all kinds of airborne pores and whatnot... Even if the first moron doesn't die right after he takes his helmet off, it doesn't make it safe! But still the other "scientists" follow his example...

My answer: David confirmed that the air was safe. If a machine with better analytical capacities than you confirmed you the air was safe, wouldn't you be confident ?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The robot(David was it?) infects one of the group with that unknown "thing" which might get the whole group killed, which would make the trip meaningless and a huge waste of money. I do realise that he was acting on orders but it still seemed stupid considering he had no idea of it's effects... It could've ended infecting all of the crew and even possibly Weyland himself!

My Answer: David has received orders from Weyland: " Try harder ". The security of the crew was overridden by this order. Weyland wanted to cure his upcoming death. Do you really think he would care about a possible general infection in this state of mind ? Especially if this infection could be the carrier of a possible cure for his " disease " ? Plus, the money given for the mission was for this only purpose, if you didn't noticed...

David, moreover, could read the " engineers " language. There is a great chance he already knew the black substance effect, so he knew its spread vector ( here, surely not so infectious, don't you think ? ). Remember, at Weyland death ? Weyland : " There is nothing here " - David " I know [...] ".


--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The captain leaves the bridge to get laid... Seriously? They have two men trapped inside an alien structure, with possibly living aliens in there but he goes to get some ass? ...Wow.

My answer: Milburn and Fifield are great boys. And their order was to stay safe until the storm passes. The captain wasn't their baby sitter. And I guess some ass after two years of abstinence, knowing there was great risks of no return for this travel ( Why do you think Vickers first question to David when she awakened was: " Any casualties ? " ) could be somewhat...pleasant.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The guy within the dome, playing around the alien snake... You seriously deserved that tentacle rape you moron.

My answer: Milburn was a biologist. When you discover something new, unknown and which seems harmless concerning your work, you become very excited. That was his case. Heh, he finished " tentacle raped " as you said. Risks of the job. He could have really finished with a cool pet too.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

They notice one of the crew having serious infection and they try to bring him back?oO Even after he literally starts to melt? Seriously? You're on the other side of the galaxy, if you get that infection to your ship, you're all dead! I think that "leader" chick was correct with her flametrhower there. Actually, I liked her as the wisest one of them all...although she gets squashed like a bug because she doesn't realise she could've moved to the side! That death was the most dumbest of them BTW, it's almost like:
"Hey we still need to kill her, but we don't have time!"
"Meh, after she does a meaningless escape from the ship before it explodes, then we can have her get squashed the alien ship..."

My answer : Yeah, you will let someone die so easily when you see him having issues like the ones Holloway had. Holloway: " I'm ill guys ! "- A member of the crew: " Let him die, we are on the other side of the galaxy, if we get that infection to our ship, we are all dead ( even if I don't know what infection it is, huh !) ! " . Seriously ? More, they had a " quarantine " process which could have surely worked and was surely very efficient ( Remember the scene with the alien head exploding ? ).

About Vickers death: Damn it, in her case, you could have calculated precisely how the ship would fall ? The only order in her head at this moment was " Run, baby, run ". You don't have the time to think cleverly in this kind of situation. You just run, that's all.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The "main character" performing a surgery on herself by herself with a machine that doesn't even have the right functions for it... Why not just take a rusty knife, dip it in the toilet and cut your stomach with that?

My answer: You are too picky there. She managed to make the machine work the way she wanted. She has chosen an abdominal operation with the remove of an strange corpse, What do you want to be added ?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

And why did the alien guy attack the woman in the escape pod? How did he even know she was there? He should've just gone to the other ships and leave her there... Damn, I'm even critisizing the aliens here!

My answer: The escape pod was the only place where she could have belong. Moreover, maybe he didn't knew someone was there. He was just trying to check if there wasn't something dangerous in the pod which could make a second derelict crash. He had underestimated the human power one time; he wouldn't make this error a second time. Shaw was a possible danger then. Getting rid of any possible danger was the best solution.

So yeah, I did not like the movie...
My guess: it is surely because your head was full of questions, not answered, at the end. This is what I liked in " Prometheus " . Ridley Scott took a path where he decided not to babysit the viewer. You have to use your brain to make logical links.
 
Resident Evil: Damnation - 7/10

(Note, this is the second animated movie, not to be mixed with the Alice saga...)

I did like the movie, although I think I lost a lot by the fact that I haven't played the games past RE4(and even with RE4 I only started it and got pissed off). Otherwise it was pretty good, once again led by the super soldier Leon... There were some moments that were just pure "WTF!?!" but then again, if you got into fight with Putin for example I think he'd kick your ass...don't worry, you'll get it if you watch the movie!:lol: There are also some things that are not really explained, unless it's in the games, but I still liked this and Degeneration more than any of the Alice fests(the live action movies). Id recommend both to all RE fans.
 
The Other Guys - What?/10

What exactly are they trying with this film? Is it supposed to be a comedy? Action?

It tried to be funny, which it failed miserably. A couple of lines were funny, not much else.
Had some cool car chases, but that's about it.
Meh, not really a film worth watching, unless you really like the goofy trying-too-hard films (like Scary Movie).
My niece bought it, so we watched it as we were having dinner, but I really wish I hadn't. It truly is one of those films you watch, then wish you hadn't :p
 
Been sick for the last week so I've gone through some movies, gotten better now though...

Journey to the Mysterious Island - 7/10

Why do you try to mix "reality" with a fantasy movie...Especially when your movie is mostly for younger audiences. When your characters are flying around riding giant bees, trying to make sense with "you have school" and "I need to get to college!" is just freaking stupid... If I found an Island that has the freaking atlantis, a mountain of gold and giant bees that I can ride, I think school would the last thing in my mind!!! Kinda annoying movie really...could've been good if it wasn't trying to make sense, which it can't do.

Immortals - 6/10

This movie was just overly brutal and dark. It also had so many things that made no sense... Why is it so hard to make a good movie about the creek mythology?

Underworld Awakening - 6,5/10

This movie was just repetitive... They had about one new idea and it seemed that even that was forgotten halfway through. It just seemed so similar to the first two movies, just exchange michael with a little girl!:lol: Also, after watching this movie I was just like "what did I just watch?".

Abraham Lincoln The Vampire Hunter - 6/10

For a movie with an idea as silly as this one, they really should've gone all out with it. They should've embraced the sillyness and go over the top, not try to make it something "serious"... As it is, it felt really lackluster in all areas.
 
Edit:

007 Quantum of Solace - 6.5/10

Acceptable.
I haven't cared for the "new" James Bond" or either movie he was in. The last James Bond movie I really liked was "GoldenEye"

The new Bond is kinda good. Casino Royal is a good movie.
