The last movie you saw

[GONNAFISTYA]

Riddick = 3/10 - Kinda boring really with just more of the same from Pitch Black and nothing really happens for the entire first hour. Seriously...nothing happens. Nothing. Right at the beginning of the movie they abandoned the concept of Riddick being a leader of the Necromongers and basically reverted the series back to Riddick simply being a nobody ex-convict stuck on a hostile planet, once again hiding in plain sight and fucking with really dumb mercenaries because he's just so damned hard...or sumthin. Then they ripped off the scene from Pitch Black where they need to move power-module-thingamaboobs across an alien/beast-infected area...because Riddick had to bury them far away from the ships for some reason. This film is a waste of your time and does nothing to progress the overall story of the series. In fact, they've gone backwards. It's like Star Trek in that they're simply gonna reset everything at the end of each movie wherein the characters are in their "standard element"...and with Riddick that's either a desolate planet with hostile aliens or a prison of some kind...probably on a desolate planet with hostile aliens. I'd bet that's all the games will ever be, too.

Such a waste. This series had so much potential after Chronicles but they got lazy, went full retard and now all they're probably gonna do is retell the same crap over and over again of Riddick making pets out of apex predators, playing peek-a-boo with armed baddies and slaughtering an alien beast from time to time, just like this film and just like everything else you've seen before. Riddick as a concept is a terrific idea and the universe they've created for these films is nothing short of fantastic and with endless possibilities, but they don't want to do anything interesting and would rather just have some guy wearing ugly shades pop out of a hiding spot with a knife...because it looks cool on a poster. Riddick was once the leader of a galactic empire and now all they remember is that he's an ex-con with a bounty? You'd think those bounties were removed against himself by, you know, the leader of a galactic empire but apparently there's no statute of limitations on escaping prison when you lose power....or sumthin.

Fuck this franchise.

i still don't get why the necromonger grunt he kills to impress their leader had a dagger seemingly sticking out of his back, which Riddick then pulls out and sticks in his front, thereby killing him instantly

Chronicles was good, but from time to time it went half-retard

Star trek: into lenseflare

6/10

J.J. Abrams apologizes for overusing lens flare: 'I know it's too much'

"But I'll tell you, there are times when I'm working on a shot, I think, 'Oh this would be really cool… with a lens flare.'..."


fucking LOL

lol I always wondered about that, too.

Oh well, no matter as all the future of this franchise has to offer is more sweaty killing of unkempt low-lifes with empty tuna cans.

[seremtan]

don't forget the trailer-friendly one-liners and faux existentialist philosophising

[Plan B]

Pacific Rim.

Awful.
I wouldn't mind the atrocious acting or the ridiculous premise (interdimensional portal? wtf?) if the core business of giant monsters was properly executed. But it isn't. The "Kaiju" look like laughable cuddly overgrown muppets.
And then some Independence Day-like payoff? Fucking hell.
Terrible.

Tintin - 6/10; I loved the first 15 minutes until the film turned into a 3d action shitfest. Whenever there was a tiny bit of story developing they leaped into just another sequence of tacky slapstick action. They even turned an exposition flashback into an action sequence. Great music and lovable characters. But nowhere near the original comic books.

Star Trek: Into Darkness - 5/10; Pretty bad. I like the characters of Kirk and Spock as played by Pine and Quinto - that's what made the movie partly enjoyable to me. I also liked the lensflares. Seems to be the visual branding of the Star Trek reboot. I'm ok with that. Ludicrous plot though and lots of action I did not care about.

lol Steven Spielberg, etc.

[GONNAFISTYA]

Europa Report = 6.5/10 - It uses too many dumb horror movie tropes but is otherwise a well made movie. I feel that Europa Report and Apollo 18 are the only "found footage" movies worth watching and I don't think it's coincidence they're both sci-fi. Yes, I am a nerd.

[SoM]

World War Z unrated bluray - 2/10 - bleh, another zombie flick but with Pitt, i'd rather watch the original Night of The Living Dead

Die Hard A Good Day To Die Hard - 2/10 - it sucked imo, just brand names.

better not be disappointed with Red2

The Lone Ranger - 6/10 - Solid movie but lacking fun. Solid script but nothing unpredictable as it heavily relies on ideas allready played out a dozens of times. I'd have given it 7/10 if it was fun to watch.

And I did not like the color scheme of the movie.

This was bugging me, I could have sworn it was explained but I just flicked through the 1st 30 mins and couldn't find shit.

Google says he keeps it as a token from a previous battle, which is what I thought and I can't see how I would have known that unless it was from 1 of the 2 movies

So it's atleast explained in the novels, as far as I can tell it should be explained somewhere in the film n all.

I watched some of Riddick, forgot most of it and have no desire to do a rewatch.

Gravity - 10/10. Amazing amazing amazing!

[feedback]

I don't know why you faggots didn't like Elysium, it was a cool movie and I enjoyed it.

[GONNAFISTYA]

Prolly cause we don't like shit movies. But I'm only speaking for myself.

[losCHUNK]

It was alright, the story was weak but was entertaining enough I thought.

[GONNAFISTYA]

I have yet to discuss this movie IRL with anyone who liked it.

[losCHUNK]

Then they have a stick in their arse

Wouldn't say I liked it but I didn't dislike it either, was middle of the road for me. Sci Fi is so scarce and shit atm n all that I'll hold Elysium up as one of the best in recent years

Films like these don't really need a strong plot or storyline either imo, It wasn't trying to be clever or unique, it was pretty much Minority Report without the midget anyway. Was just a Sci Fi flick. I think films like Inception, Looper, The Knowing, Prometheus are more offensive.

[Tsakali]

Uhm, no. For all its shortcomings. Minority report was beyond this crap. It has way better action, story, and inspired view of the future.

[losCHUNK]

One man in the future going up against the standards of society that he's been persecuted by in a break neck, action packed adventure that will see the walls come crumbling down. Who will help him, some dude in a holo-bunker or some dude with a spaceport ?, will he survive the surgical procedure from back alley Doctor ?. Seriously, one thing Minority Report wasn't was clever.

[Pext]

Seriously, one thing Minority Report wasn't was clever.

But... but... it's based on a novel by Phillip K. Dick. It must be clever.

Me too

Gravity - 10/10. Amazing amazing amazing!

All I needed & great news as I am going tomorrow or the day after and I so am excited as never before at a movie I am about to see

[losCHUNK]

Seriously, one thing Minority Report wasn't was clever.

But... but... it's based on a novel by Phillip K. Dick. It must be clever.

It did build a pretty awesome future that was reminiscent of Blade Runner and Total Recall but I think it got too clever for its own boots. Without reading the novel I can't say who's to blame but things like the big 'guess who?' at the end was a real eye roller.

Was still a good movie, was put together better than Elysium but I think Elysium also wanted more action so sacrificed the story, which wasn't so great anyway

[GONNAFISTYA]

I don't know why you faggots didn't like Elysium, it was a cool movie and I enjoyed it.

Me too

I'm guessing your old age made you forget your earlier post where you didn't really like it.
