Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (March 24th, 2016)

[Gully Foyle]

The film also managed to humanized the T-800.

The biggest mistake with T2, imo.

Yeah, everyone knows that Ah-nuld wanted to play a good guy to burnish his political career . . .

But he's much more believable as a monosyllabic wooden robot . . . it plays to his intellect and his range as an actor.


T2 is a masterclass in film-making and will always be one of the greatest sequels of all time.

Thank gawd they never made another one . . .

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

Right errr *clears throat* well T1 is shorter, less of a time-commitment, disposable entertainment to be watched on the fly....so obviously it has less depth and ehh T2 is therefore better.

*wipes brow*

A toast to a-dev!

I actually think Arnold's acting and performance improved with each subsequent film. I think he's better in T2 than in the first. When he goes on about the history of Skynet, Dyson, Russia and the war, it's much colder and matter-of-fact than anything in T1. The looks, the side glances, he was even better and all he was doing was reading off the windshield.

I think True Lies and Last action hero are his best, then he started bottoming out in the late 90s.

He was pretty good in Maggie, but the film was boring.

End of Days
Last Action Hero
PREDATOR

Tho I haven't seen Maggie yet.

 

[Baneofdemon22]

Well there is lots and lots of walking.
Frodo and Sam do act like a couple.

At least we have the awesome The Two Towers.

And for the record, T1 all the way.
I like T2
I like TG
I like the PT
I like the OT
I like the NT
I like MOS
I like LOTR
I hate The Hobbit Part 1.

I kept wondering if I should watch the Hobbit movie. I liked the book and the 70s animated flick, but I felt like they were enough. I guess they were!

Good recovery I thought.

How's this thread doing

True Lies is such an underrated flick. That movie is flat out awesome from start to finish. Great action, subplots that are interesting, comedy bits and a Tom Arnold that are actually funny and Curtis's rocking body.

 

[jye4ever]

Yup, love TL.

True Lies is such an underrated flick. That movie is flat out awesome from start to finish. Great action, subplots that are interesting, comedy bits and a Tom Arnold that are actually funny and Curtis's rocking body.

Imagine being Arnold in that scene and having to be all like "damn, Jamie Curtis, you ****in' fine, all sexy with your tight body and horrific androgynous monster face. I would totally have sex with you, both my character and the real me." when all he really wants to do is **** another 16 year old in his dressing room. Like seriously imagine having to be Arnold and not only sit in that chair while Jamie Lee Curtis flaunts her disgusting body in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing her stretchmarks and leathery skin, and just sit there, take after take, hour after hour, while she perfected that dance. Not only having to tolerate her monstrous ****ing visage but her haughty attitude as everyone on set tells her she's STILL GOT IT and DAMN, JAMIE LEE CURTIS LOOKS LIKE *THAT*?? because they're not the ones who have to sit there and watch her mannish ****ing gremlin face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been ****ing nothing but a healthy diet of blondes and supermodels and later alleged rape victims for your ENTIRE CAREER coming straight out of the boonies in Austria. You've never even seen anything this ****ing disgusting before, and now you swear you can taste the sweat that's breaking out on her dimpled stomach as she sucks it in to writhe it suggestively at you, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get paid to sit there and revel in her "statuesque (for that is what she calls herself)" beauty, the beauty she worked so hard for with personal trainers in the previous months. And then the director calls for another take, and you know you could kill every single person in this room before the studio security could put you down, but you sit there and endure, because you're ****ing Arnold. You're not going to lose your future political career over this. Just bear it. Hide your face and bear it.

[YoNoSe]

It definitely changed him.

 

[a-dev]

Whaddaya think, is it 'wrestler' GIF time Jye?

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

I can't disagree with all that, but I don't remember any stretchmarks or leathery skin....he face though...not my type. I need a pretty face.

 

[Khev]

There's a lot of that going on with regard to Aliens these days. You must join me Khev so we can destroy the arguments from Alien purists *spoken in Count Dooku voice*

Oh there's no destroying the arguments of people who speak against ALIENS. Pearls to swine and all. But between you and me TFA to ANH is quite similar to ALIENS to ALIEN. You should have seen the outcry of ALIEN purists getting their ***** on about ALIENS being a"lowest common denominator" remake back on usenet in the 90's. "Ermagerd they both start with the space travelers responding to a signal issue, they see a facehugger first, then a chestburster, then people get killed one after the other, they use motion trackers and flame units, a corporate guy betrays them, then Ripley finally wins by blowing it out an airlock. It's a remake but less artsy, Cameron was a crowd pleasing hack, we're cool, we're badasses, bla bla bla."

TFA and ALIENS are both more more exciting and emotionally poignant than ANH/A1 though each is a little less iconic and polished. All four films are great though the two sequels do slightly edge out the originals in terms of overall quality.
