[PyroChamber]

A lot of people trash movies that go straight to video/DVD, but are there actually any good ones?

 

[Kevin Roegele]

No.

Rarely because most of the time it is movies that the studio knows will just bomb at the box office or they are just trying to cash in a title's name while spinning out a ****ty low budget flick.

You, sir, have hit the nail on the head.

 

[RedIsNotBlue]

Well I work at a videostore and see them come in every Tuesday. It sucks that people are renting them.

Ginger Snaps movies, Cube movies

 

[JTStarkiller]

Return of the Joker.

 

[CConn]

Boondock Saints, anyone?

Boondock Saints sucked.

And opened in 5 theaters, apparently.

Return of the Joker.

 

[RedIsNotBlue]

Dafoe gave an awesome performance but yeah...the movie pretty much didn't hit that good mark.

 

[CConn]

Agreed.

Billy Connolly is always awesome too.

 

[RedIsNotBlue]

Ehhh. His character kind of put me off. But yes Billy Connolly is a beast.

Ginger Snaps movies, Cube movies

I loved the Ginger Snaps Trilogy.

 

[RedIsNotBlue]

I actually liked the first Ginger Snaps on some level. The rest I could care a less about.

 

[Donnie Darko]

wow, I think this is the first time I've ever seen Boondock Saints get more negative response than positive... to each his own, I guess. But yeah, Return of the Joker is great. Now if only they would add a DKR animated movie to the list of upcoming DC DTV films.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

The first two Ginger Snaps are great.

The third one is meh.

Wasn't Dog Soldiers direct to DVD too?

 

[Kevin Roegele]

You know, that would annoy me. if I were you I'd say, "No, you're not renting that, there must be hundreds of great movies you haven't seen which you could watch instead."

If they persisted, I'd pull a gun on them.

Nope. Atleast, not in the UK.

 

[thedeadite]
