Yea, SF is awful. Not even fun awful.

Mortal Kombat wins Fatality.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Ehhh... I still want it.

Hard to believe it was the same guy that directed most of the dog **** Resident Evil films. Still, MK is the best adaption ever.

This'll make your heads spin.. I don't mind MK: Annihilation.

Another one I painfully sat through in a theater...

Outside of Talisa Soto, all the women come off as low rent porn stars.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Hey - you guys saw these monstrosities in the cinema.

I DID NOT.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Well you can't really blame me for that. I was a kid, and I didn't know the horror Hollywood would show me. Besides Poopination was coming off the heels of a good film so I just assumed... it... would... be good.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Poopination.

When did that come out; 1997? I did see SPAWN in the cinema that year.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Spawn was alright.

Yeah it was 97'. Just watching a few clips in this... damn all the ninjas outfits look terrible. Although still better than the crap Boon has been subjecting us to for a decade now.

Your response was completely dismissive and then you say the reason AVP sucked was because we knew too much about the Predators, which is in no way true. See..
There are a million reasons as to why all the AVP aren't great, but it has nothing to do with exploring the Predator race, world, history or developing those characters and world. The Predator doesn't need to be mysterious after P1...and a good sequel develops the ideas and characters from the first film. Changing the setting, and giving us a similar Predator is not breaking new ground from a story telling point of view.

No, I said ONE of the reasons it sucked was that, and IT WAS, not only did they try to make them proto-aztecs, which was retarded and dissonant. They also tried to develop a character, which sucked even more.

Hell, I don't know why you're against using the same formula, twice they've tried to "explore" in a very fanfic way and both times it sucked, the same formula in a different kind of environment is the way to go, and P2 did develop certain ideas and gave us a little more insight of what the Predators are, just enough, they didn't need to go and turn it full AVP.

Yep, you argued with him so much...some part of him got imprinted on to you...Smith/Neo style

That was low, you go and defend TDKR every chance you get and I don't use such below the belt hits

I did. You just ignored it like everything else. I told you that he's a hunter, that the environment played a role in the film because he knew the jungle and the soldiers didn't, which gave him a tactical advantage, and that given that the design of the character is that of a lizard like character who uses camouflage...or invisibility in the jungle, it made more sense for him to be in a jungle, which is what the writers wrote to begin with. They didn't start with him in a modern city for a reason. Just because he could turn invisible in a city or in other environments doesn't mean is appropriate for the character, but that wasn't good enough just like the review's point are "retarded"....great response to the review along with "who wants to know more about the Preadtor world or culture?"

I ask again, in what way does he "use" the jungle? In what way does he do anything different than what he does in the city? THAT ^ is not an answer, "He's a hunter" Well he's hunting in the city too, "he knows the jungle" Well he knows the city, "Camouflages" his bloody camouflage is literally making himself invisible, how is that any different in the city? You keep saying "he used the environment against them" HOW??? At the end the environment worked against him in P1. Didn't it?

And you're right, that's not good enough an answer AT ALL, you're trying too hard to work your way around this one too, my question is simple, what does he do in the jungle that is any different at ALL, of what he does in the city?

You still haven't given me one meaningful scene/moment between Jerry and the chick that shows their relationship developing...don't think I forgot about that.

You say it like I'm running away from that, I've said it 4 times now, I am not going to spoon feed what you missed, if you want to know, watch it again, it's there, if you miss it, you missed it.

You're not one to demand to that when you've tried so hard give me a non-answer in the question above.

The memorable lines, the character's dialogue with each other, the fact that P1 creates the world which P2 just borrows and changes the setting...I mentioned those things which are connected to the writing.

That's not talking about the writing, give me specific lines, specific plot points and why they're good, you're just saying "the writing's good because the lines are good" that's not justification.

Although you don't need justification, I know P1 is great, I've quoted some lines myself in the review, but somehow you turned this argument into me hating P1 and saying P2 is better what the hell man?

P1 created the main components which the second just borrows and it uses in a less effective way compared to the original film. Basically, P1 is more original than P2.

Well duh!

That's good, but lets not forget that alone doesn't make it a better film. It might be an improvement in ONE area, but overall the original still created the main components which the second just borrows and it uses in a less effective way compared to the original film, which is one of the reasons I said that the writing in P1 is superior, because it's what started it all.. and it's more original than P2.

That may be so, but having an original idea doesn't = writing it better, I'm simply saying the script in P2 is slightly, slightly more solid than P1's, if less original.

And another thing not related to any of your posts. I've been watching Predaturd 2 scenes on youtube, and Glover's overacting is horrendous. As ridiculous as it might sound, Arnold is way more subtle with his acting and gives a much better performance than Glover....plus all those cliches like the angry boss yelling at Glover, the new guy/partner Paxton, and the annoying reporter Die Hard style and Robert Davi playing a similar role like in Die Hard make this film an early 90's time capsule of what not to do in a sequel. What a mess of a film Glover isn't even the worst as crazy as that sounds, Paxton takes it to a whole different level of cheesiness....maybe it's his voice. The best actor in that film (which is not saying much) is the Salsa singer Ruben Blades while the most badass is Busey.

Jeeeez

^ I made it to 3mins..

I never could stomach how they replaced Lambert with that poor man's Harrison Ford guy.

They didn't replace him, he was in the middle of another film I believe.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Ohhhh.......................

Anyway, MK:A isn't as bad as Lawnmower Man 2.

Nothing is.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I don't think I've ever seen any of those films. As bad as MKA was, I'd watch it over the crap short films they've done in the past few years.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

The first movie was alright, & Pierce Brosnan being in it gave it a bit of cred too. The second one? Stay away from that at all costs.

I just got given all those MK web-isodes by a friend recently. Not worth watching?

 

[Snake Plissken]

I gave it a chance, but I didn't care for it.

Pierce Brosnan in MK? I'm not following.

He played Reptile.

I feel like I am missing a joke here
