    There are a few lines in the movie that make it sound like she was just using the whole thing for her own purpose, and not just for money. It appears that quite a bit was cut from the film for some reason. This is not a bad thing, the film we ended up with focused on Wolverine's coming to grips with killing Jean Grey, as it should be. For an example of what happens when too much is left on the screen I would point to "The Lone Ranger".

    Have to agree, I doubt it was the actress' fault in any way. The character existed only to be a baddie. Even the main villain had a nebulous motivation at best - or at least it seems like scenes detailing that character's motivation seemed to be missing...

    Netflix had it available on DVD, at least it did. The problem is the quality of the video is poor at best, the final battle scene is nearly unwatchable due to how dark it is - the ships can rarely be seen it is so muddy.

    Kryptonite, it all boils down to Kryptonite. That plus we know that by the end of the film Batman and Superman will be working together to take down Joker and Lex Luthor.

    A show about the downfall of the Protoculture would be interesting, ooops, just remembered that it would involve those creatures from Macross 7.

    Did you see the convention footage where the VA for Winnie the Pooh was doing Darth Vader's dialog as Winnie the Pooh, it was great "Where are those plans!"

    I didn't know Ninjas COULD walk.

    Disney will get them moving. As for the show itself, the political bits in Clone Wars would not have been a problem, IF it had not been such inane drivel. "War is Bad", yes, everyone knows that - losing a war is worse.

    Disney is now involved, merchandise WILL be released in a timely manner. Some people actually think Disney is an animation company, sheer madness that...

    Directors cut or something like that. Not the theatrical version. I only skipped through, found the part of it where McCloud turns young again and "fights" the flying guy. Turned it off. I put "fights" in quotes since that is one of the most pathetic fights scenes ever. The sword fights in the first one were great and then we get this flying junk...

    Although it is referenced in the very thread title, and on it's own I would not call it the WORST movie ever made, since I just recently watched some of it I HAVE to nominate it, yes of course I refer to "Highland II". I forgot just how turly wretched this turd of a movie was, and for it to so utterly trash the mythology of the first one (for some scifi rubbish no less) is shameful. I don't know how many years it will take for me to forget the hawkman/hoverboard "fight" scene this time around...

    I had not noticed BUT there was so much battle footage (which was all spectacular) that it may have needed to be paired down a bit to make budget. As for Domel

    I've just started watching High School of the Dead on Netflix. Decent show so far but the VA for the nurse isn't the best.

    Gee, ya think? But ask yourself, why do they ONLY show the disaster part of the movie, is the rest that bad?
  15. Dynaman
    No.
  16. Dynaman
    They still only show the part of the movie that is exciting, what is the other 1.5 hours of film like?

    Being a truly talented straight man is NOT as easy as it may seems.

    I've been ignoring this thread thinking it was some kind of fanfic joke. This is the DUMBEST idea ever...

    To be fair NO (see I got it in there...) version of Frankenstein has been like the book. I have not read it (on the list) but I heard that the creature starts out tall and handsome rather then a horrible monster. The idea of basing a movie off the graphic novel rather then the actual source, sounds lame. Doesn't help that I am REALLY tired of all the movies based off comic books these days. I'm make an exception for Watchmen, but comic books are second rate storytelling.

    > Because why build a story around a ship that can warp great distances, then throw that object in over half way through and 1/4 of the way into the round trip? The Yamato can warp within the galaxy, but going clear across to another one is a different story. In the original they just went and did the long warp one episode (which begs the question, why didn't they do it earlier? After a test warp or two?). In this one they did not do that since they couldn't. A little better internal consistancy. That and I think there is going to be more of the plot revolving around the device and those who made it coming up.

    > and the MacGuffin of the Not really a MacGuffin, it makes a heck of a lot more sense then the original.

    > Hollywood makes movies for the overseas audience these days. It's their fail safe for flops. Their will def. be a sequel or two. I wouldn't count on it. Overseas sales are expected to PAD the numbers and kick in that extra bit of profit, if a movie does not AT LEAST pay for itself in US tickets sales it is a very long shot for a follow up.

    Well, just saw it. It is NOT as bad as the reviews make it out to be, but I wouldn't call it good either. My review. Some of this is mildly spoilerish... Tonto - People calling it "Red Face" ignore the fact that the rest of the Comanche in the picture say he is bonkers to begin with. Frankly since everyone is a bad caricature to begin with singleing out tonto is PC gone bad. Length - Biggest flaw, the movie is just too long. Ending - Only really fun part of the movie is the end - and most of that is from hearing the William Tell Overture. Lone Ranger - Who cares about the masked man, and since EVERYONE knows who he really is what is the point of the mask? And finally to damn the movie with faint praise, it was better then PotC 4, but not by much.

    I don't think we have to worry too much, the original Yamato / Star Blazers did a great job for the time. They got rid of most of the on-screen death and renamed the ship - other then that it was kept intact. Looks like they are re-using the name changes (I can live with that), most likely they will not chop out anything this time - I take that from the Yamato 3 dub where they kept that in (I think, I couldn't watch past the first episode or two, the VAs were that bad)

    > but they had a real Indian for Tonto. As a member of an Eastern tribe, that is in some ways even worse then using a white actor for the part. Unless Tonto was supposed to be an Eastern tribe indian forced to live out west. Nothing against Jay Silverheels though, from what little I have seen of him he seemed to be a decent man making a living. (sort of like Hattie McDaniel when criticized for playing a maid, her response "I'd rather play a maid then be one")
