I don't think you will enjoy Gone Girl, so I recommend sticking to not watching it.Panic Room is the only Fincher movie I liked (I have not seen Gone Girl).
I think Alien3 is worse than Resurrection or AvP.
Oh I forgot about Panic Room. Add that to my list.
Really? Outside the warden and the moment nameless prisoners tried to gang rape Ellen Ripley characters seem charming and interestingly nice. But it's true that the movie retreaded old grounds.With Alien3 I thought the characters were too unlikeable (I guess that was intentional but went too far and also seemed to want us to mostly give them a pass) and both the action and horror felt inevitable and repetitive/obvious (from the previous films or horror films in general, while on the other hand "action movie without guns" felt trying too hard to be different) and boring.
One of the things I liked the most about <i>Gone Girl</i>, specially the first time I saw it, was that you had no idea if Ben Affleck's character was being truthful or not.
I already stated earlier in the thread how I make that argument. If it was a nonspeaking, 3 second cameo why not just CGI the entire thing? Why even have an actor stand-in?How can you even make an argument out of it when one was just a non-speaking, 3 second cameo in a mid-credits stinger and nothing more?
I don't know how unpopular this is, but:
After rewatching all three of them for the first time in about 15 years, I have to say that the first Blade film is the best of the trilogy, but none of them are that good. Blade Trinity is the worst of them (most will agree there), but Blade II isn't much better. Guillermo Del Toro went on to bigger and better things for sure. What really makes them worth watching is Wesley Snipes and a few of the supporting cast performances, like Kris Kristofferson in all three, Stephen Dorff in the first film, Ron Perlman and Norman Reedus in Blade II and Ryan Reynolds' Deadpool lite Hannibal King in Trinity.
I give the first movie credit for being Marvel's first box office success and for not being a complete laughing stock during a period of CBMs like Batman & Robin and Steel, but they haven't really aged well at all.
That being said, the line "Some mother****ers are always trying to ice skate uphill" is Oscar-worthy.
Blade Trinity is the worst of them (most will agree there), but Blade II isn't much better.
Nero in Star Trek is a terrible villain, maybe Eric Bana's worst performance.
Not a lot of depth but very entertaining action and effects and involving-enough story and acting make II much better than Trinity, I think even better than the first. Trinity, it's amazing how formulaic it all so quickly became and how little effort the actors were putting in.
Is that an unpopular opinion ? I remember seeing ST and Bana being outstanding....outstandingly TERRIBLE. Nero was a bunch of cliches wrapped up in a performance that manages to be OTT and underwhelming at the same time ! I can't think of a worse Eric Bana performance either !
Over the top and underwhelming at the same time is a good way to put it.
I suppose Cumberbatch does a pretty good turn as the villain in ST ID but then it would be hard to find a poor Cumberbatch performance- the guy can do a lot with a little.
It saddens me to say I disagree with this post after the first statement. All three of them are great for what they've got to play, and those who played the character in solo films are very underrated.Eric Bana = Great Hulk
Mark Ruffalo = Okay Hulk (at best)
Edward Norton = Lame Hulk.
