Don't see any threads for Apocalypto (2006), so I'll throw this out there so anyone who feels like discussing it can use it.
 
meh, I will see it but I don't know nearly enough about it, or wish to to carry on a discussion
 
I wanted this movie to be about the Aztec's not the mayan's
 
All I know is the piercing stuff creeps the hell out of me, which is probably why I won't see it, at least not in theaters.
 
Eh, it's not really a movie that appeals to me. Maybe I'll get around to seeing it, but I'll be passing on the theater release.
 
i'll probably rent this one. it appears to be getting good reviews...but i think its gonna bomb pretty hard at the box office.
 
I doubt I'll see it, because:

1) I am not looking forward to it

2) I don't have enough time
 
i'd see it, it looks really interesting, prolly on dvd though
 
well its gotten good revews
 
Well, I saw it at a sneak preview. I have to admit, I am really confused about the ending Mel Gibson chose to go with. For some reason the Jews come out of no where and just wipe out the Mayans. Very odd ending. ;)

They caused the war damnit!:cmad:


Either way, I got way too many movies on my plate anyway, and plan on watching Blood Diamond instead.

Yea, very strange ending. I think it was supposed to be a metaphor but damned if I know what for. :confused:

were you serious when you said the ending was that jews came and kiled all the mayens?? :wow:
 
I saw the trailer, it made me kinda uncomfortable. I don't really know why.

Yea, but thats not even the strange part. It then cuts to Rome in a grave yard. 2 people are talking about how "the tyrannical Jews are destroying everything." One remarks "If only someone was here who could stop them." They walk off, and it pans down to the tombstone which reads "Jesus"...and suddenly the zombified hand of Jesus bursts from the ground. Then the screen reads "The End.....?"

WAHHHHHHHHH!?!?!?!?!?! :eek:

I have to see this movie at once!
 
I think it looks pretty darn fantastic actually, I'll definately being seeing it in on a big screen for full effect. I dont see it appealing to the masses though and like Marvel said will probably bomb at the B.O.
And obviously some people will still not be able to see past Mel's personal life:whatever:
 
Blood Diamond looks meh... Dicaprio's aussie is atrocious... so I might sheck out this one instead if I even go to the movies this weekend... it should beat blood diamond
 
There are definately too many other things I want to see for me to see this.
 
Well, we're always griping about how there aren't enough R-rated flicks for our taste anymore, and the two main releases this weekend are not family fare. If they don't do well, Hollywood will just take it as a sign to release more sugarcoated goodness.

He's not supposed to be Aussie, he is doing a South African accent, a pretty good one at that.

1) Someone can't take a joke.

2) Mel's personal life reflects his professional life as The Passion proved.
