i didn't see jack and jill, battleship, or year one. i don't doubt they were worse than IM2 or QoS...i just knew they probably would be and avoided them at all costs. the only reason i saw love guru and zohan was because they featured jessica alba and emmanuelle chriqui respectively.

i will concede wolverine origins is indeed even worse than IM2/QoS. it was a complete disaster. whoever wrote that godawful script really should stop.

green hornet was actually entertaining the first time through. the total recall remake, while falling terrible short of the arnold classic was just a mediocre film, not a terrible one, imo.

Just out of curiosity, what are your favorite Bond films?

A Necessary Evil · 11-14-2012, 09:40 PM

If he says Diamonds Are Forever...

The Riddler · 11-14-2012, 11:40 PM

goldeneye is the best bond film to date.

Dr. No, followed by Casino Royale.

And Diamonds Are Forever is my least favorite Bond movie.

Good ones.

Let's try a few Bond film related unpopular opinions:

I don't really care for GE, in fact even though I think Brosnan was a decent Bond and that, given better material, he could have done something more interesting with the part (same could be said for Dalton I guess), I don't really like any of his Bond films.
Besides the soundtrack, the ski chase and Diana Rigg, and besides its late in life gain in popularity I'm still not too crazy about OHMSS. Probably due to the fact that I think Lazenby was a really bad Bond.
FYEO is terrible. I don't understand how some people consider it a good Bond film and one of the best Moore efforts? The only two good Moore Bond films are LALD and especially TSWLM.

Sorry

Did you prefer CR or Skyfall?

Wesley Dodds · 11-16-2012, 07:09 AM

Speaking of Bond, here's an unusual one:

Daniel Craig, brilliant 007 though he is, has a really weird run.

Seriously, next time you're watching Skyfall keep an eye out for it. Every time he bursts into a sprint it's like, "waaaaadddafuq?"
I don't know if it's because he's so built or what, but there it is...

ChickenScratch · 11-16-2012, 07:55 AM

It's because he is short. He runs like a little dude.

Im not sure if it's that. He's reportedly, only an inch shorter then me and dont run like that.

Wesley Dodds · 11-16-2012, 08:16 AM

I didn't know he was short, he seems huge on screen. But, yeah, he looks like someone who's only ever had running described to him.

Donnie Darko · 11-16-2012, 08:33 AM

It could be that his balls still hurt from Casino Royale.

-I dont really want Hamill, Ford, or Fischer to show up in Episode VII
-Going off that I dont really Han Solo or Leia to be in Episode VII. At least not more than cameos

Vengeance of Bane · 11-16-2012, 03:54 PM

This is an unpopular opinion. I did not like Skyfall. I loved CR and QOS had some good moments, but I just didn't like Skyfall. I have only seen it once, and I came into the theater without having seen many trailers or read anything about the movie, so my expectations to what I was about to see were way off. However, I'm sure that I'll like it more when I see it the second time.

I believe that Luke, Leia, and Han should be recast for the sequels, putting EpVII only a few years after Jedi. It worked okay for Star Trek.

It worked for Star Trek because they rebooted and restarted the franchise from the beginning. Recasting Ep7 as a continuation of the story is a no-go for me.

I agree. If you can get all the main actors back, you're kind of obligated to use them.

CConn · 11-17-2012, 09:17 AM

I think all of this is kind of a moot point as its all but been confirmed that the original characters will appear as much older versions of themselves.

Soapy · 11-17-2012, 10:34 AM

Rocky V isn't as terrible as people make it out to be.

Does that have to do with the fact that it's no longer the final Rocky movie?
