  1. Excuse me, sir, but Iron Maiden should never be mentioned in the same sentence with those other so-called bands.
  2. You forget I've been watching anime for thirty years. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: if this was an anime, with no changes except for the medium, it wouldn't even warrant it's own thread on these forums. 3/5 means I enjoyed it for what it was: robot porn.
  3. Right, because I'm the only one here who had a problem with the writing and performances in this movie.
  4. You didn't read back more than a page, did you? There were plenty of us who were put off by the horrible dialog and gross overacting that plagues just about every scene that doesn't involve robots fighting monsters. The scientists are flat out horrid, and ruin every scene they are in. And it takes some [sarcasm] real directorial talent [/sarcasm] to get a sub-par performance out of Idris Elba, but somehow del Toro managed to do just that.
  5. The Thing and Big Trouble in Little China are definitely not among his movies I would consider guilty pleasures. They're just flat out great.
  6. Showgirls, but you have to watch it with friends. Drinking helps, too. And yes, A7, I suppose Starship Troopers would count. It's clearly not the book, and it's definitely not the spiritual successor to Robocop that Verhoeven wants it to be, but the cast! THE CAST!
  7. From what I've read, they really beat you over the head with the movie's message, in that heavy-handed Avatar sorta way.
  8. I think I'm gonna wait for the Blu to hit Netflix.
  9. I saw this yesterday, and nearly crapped myself. Then I started reading about X 3, which was the last game of the series... It is not highly regarded.
