  1. I'm glad you all enjoyed the review.  But make sure you see the film for yourselves if you're really interested.  If you're an action movie junkie like me, you'll appreciate the film much more than the average summer action flick.  If you're a film fan like me, you will find it lacking for a Mann film.

    Oh, and leave the 1980's at the door to the theatre :)

    You hit the nail on the head with that 80's comment!!!

  2. By the way, the 80's ended 16 years ago. Get over it.

    You were born in, what, 1984? You came into this world the year that the series began and 5 when it ended, so you're too young to really have any clue about the '80s other than what you've seen on VH-1's "I Love the '80s" specials. I grew up during that decade and watched the show every Friday night, with the exception of the final season. Of course by that time I was 16 and far too busy drinking with my friends on Friday evenings to care about any TV show. If you were actually old enough to have experienced the '80s and appreciated the original series, perhaps you would have an opinion similar to mine.

    Viva la 80's! I was a kid running around in neon-colored clothing, riding Powell and Peralta skateboards, collecting garbage pail kids. I still have the Miami vice theme song playing in my head, and I'll never forget the opening credits with the babes in the bikinis. If this movie is anywhere near as good as Collateral, then I wanna' watch it.

    I am definitely in that 80's crowd too!!! I grew up then as well, and the chica/chico thing is Latin slang. Remember they went to Havana? Mann would never lower himself by doing a remake set in the 80's. C'mon dude... wake up!

  3. i just have a bad feeling because mark steven johnson, the director of ghost rider, also directed........are you ready.......Daredevil. Soooooooooooooo........... the odds are kind of stacked against him that ghost rider will be good. :(

    Except that there are some people out there that actually enjoy the Daredevil movie...

    Look this director up on the IMDB. He's done nothing great. He is not a visionary and much like the Daredevil movie, I can indicate from the trailer that the lighting sucks!!! How about that scene in the trailer where the bike goes over the side of the building with the chain whip... so generic!!! It looks like crap. I watched the trailer several times and I'm already dissapointed. I ain't givin' up my $10 to see this POS!!!

  4. Just got back from seeing this... I liked it! Unfortunately my girlfriend was feeling ill and I missed the last few minutes of the film. Damn they crank that frakin' AC!!! I left off where Crockett took Isabel to the safehouse on the beach and Rico was in the hospital with his woman. Hopefully I didn't miss much. I thought this film was much better than Ali and I enjoyed it as much as Collateral. It was obviously shot digitally and I thought it looked great. Sometimes gun flares look like crap on digital (Once Upon a Time in Mexico) and I cringe when I see the scene in Collateral where Tom Cruise is in the building and breaks through the glass because it looks like crappy video. I never had that issue with this film. I will definitely pick this up on DVD when it comes out.

  5. I just own what I think is essential. Next on my list is the Quadeluun Rau (Millia's), Roy's VF-0, and of course my favorite the YF-19! I currently have a VF-1S Super Valk, and the YF-21 as well as a few figures of Roy and Misa.

  6. That game just kicks major ass in general. I just pray that we get a new awesome kick ass game for the PS3.

    any system would be good for a new kickass one, but bandai licenses primarily to the PS family.

    and with the troubles sony is having making the PS3 on the production side, we'll be lucky if they don't bankrupt themselves first!

    thus far i've read 2 problems with the cell CPU's production, and another about the Blu-ray thing they were putting in

    Yeah, I already read an article stating that Sony could be in trouble when competing with HD DVD due to the name "Blue-Ray" alone. Most of the general public may go with "HD DVD" obviously due to name recognition. I also hear that Sony's Blue ray costs more than HD DVD.
