Prometheus - 8/10
Some minor stupid moments here and there but the cool stuff definitely outweighs the WTF moments. Overall a really good movie. Seen it twice now. Enjoyable.
Regarding The Thing (2011)...
I think he just gave that rating for Kari Wuhrer's breasts.
Yeah I preferred Regarding Henry.
Just got back from a screening of Poltergeist - 8/10
Awesome movie I haven't seen in a good couple of years. Great job at making us care about the family before things start to progressively build and become dangerous.
It was worse than Bayformers.ELF is awesome camp. One of the better horror comedies to come out.
Which is the area I think so many newer movies fail in. They try to go gore > engagement of the characters.

Yeah it's pretty bad when you start rooting for main characters to die.
Don't be stupid. NOTHING is worse than Bayformers.

What makes The Shining and The Thing such excellent movies. They take their time to show us these people and how real they feel with the way they interact and come to bond, as well as playing up the isolation and paranoia of who you can or can't trust.
It's a cop out today to say well, we root for Jason or Freddy. In the original Halloween or original NOES, I don't root for them because there is enough character development to make me care about the victims instead. The sequels then push aside any further development and depend on our bloodlust and infatuation with the slasher. Pretty much exactly what im seeing with the new Evil Dead trailer. Depending on the idea we all know and tons of torture porn. Does zippo for me.
Unfortunately, movie goers nowadays have short attention spans and unless they're seeing a giant robot transforming in the first 5 or 10 minutes of the movie they're bored. That's why there's so much focus on action/speeding up the story as opposed to previous films that would usually spend the first hour or so of the movie simply setting up the story/characters.
