Re: Worst Movie Ever Thread !!

persoanlly i dont really like zombie films and didnt like dawn of the dead, but it still was a good film, and i think same goes for all of the living of the dead movies.

any recent blockbusters you guys were didnt like to much???? other then catwomen

This has probably already been commented on but I watched the Da Vinci Code. Not read the book (and don't aim to). I thought it was just ok. Didn't deserve to be slated like it was, but certainly nothng special either. It was a bit like watching an Indianna Jones movie that's twice as long and less than half as exciting.

bash bash bash xD you should really read the book its far better (: or better read illuminati ( dont know if thats the american/english title too)

Hostel is produced by Quentin Tarantino but directed by "some other guy" XD
Just a heads up

true true. read the review somewhere. seems QT didn't actually have much to do with the movie at all. they're just using his name to market the movie. reviews weren't that great. then again...same goes with the Da vinci code and that hasn't stopped ppl from going to watch it

 

[karasu]

i'm thinking of watching a movie tomorrow..
but which?

take the lead?
omen?
cars?
poseidon?
RV?

What is wrong with hollywood?lately all the films that are coming to theatres are all continuation films.I mean final destination 3, X-Men 3, pirates of the carribean 2-3.The list goes on and on.I think they cant find good scenaries anymore so they drag the old ones.

that is why I am looking for different country films.

you guys should watch "My Sassy Girl" if you havent watched already.it is the best romantic comedy I have ever watched.there will be a hollywood version in theatres in 2007.

and there is"...Ing".it is more like a drama than a romantic movie.you will absolutely cry when you watch this.


look at the ratings for these films.believe me they deserve even more.koreans know how to make good romantic movies.I would like to have some more suggestions if there are any korean(south) among us or some other fareast movies.

 

[karasu]

hm..good korean movies..

Shiri ... titanic was beaten by it in korea.. it's a thriller action though..
my sassy girl was very good too..

and of course..the long list of asian super scary horror movies:
the eye (thailand)
shutter (thailand)
ju-on and ringu of coz (japan)
Hasami Otoko (japan)

and thailand martial arts is growing out real good too..
ong bak
tom yum goong

you dont mean this film, do you?

I dont think I would like a film whose plot is "North Korea's 8th Special Forces hijacks a shipment of CTX, a potent new liquid explosive, and threatens" . Man, I nearly hate holywood action films.this plot seems just like them.

I will look at the horror movies you mentioned although I watched a few holywood versions.

 

[karasu]

hm... the whole package is not actually about action though...

Spoiler

the main story is that the guy is one of the anti-terrorist squad..
it's like 24.. warning of attacks, and they have to stop their attack before it happens
but the plot twist..
he didn't know his wife is part of the terrorist squad.. she's a sniper..
her wife doesn't know he's the leader of the team...
so partially it's like mr and mrs smith.. but in a much more serious situation..
nothing comedical about this movie
and of course this movie was long long before mr and mrs smith..
a really touching and sad movie..

and the climax.. don't click on it if you think you wanna watch it..

Spoiler

she killed his friends..
she tried to kill the president..
in the end.. he had to shot her.. (one very sad scene.. the whole cinema was in tears)

Somebody have seen 'Silent Hill'? It's a very cool movie, and for those who are fans of the games, it is very worthy to watch...
Nice animation and creepy...
And it's very related to the games, so is not so useless to watch... (not like Resident Evil, non of the story is very related to the games).
In the end, there's a lot of blood... lots.
If you thought that videogames adaptations aren't that good to see, well, this is an exception.
In my opinion:

out of five.

 

[ruby_06]

Well, the last movie i have seen was the omen and i liked it very much untill i saw the ending and i got out of the cinema and i am like WHERE IS MY MONEY?????
so i guess i am a little behind in watching movies!!!

didn't they switch the main character?
they used the mom instead of the dad in the movie, didn't they?
haven't watch it yet.. it's not out yet in australia
but i'm certainly gonna watch it..when the time comes..

Not out yet o.O ? We got already a translated version here which aired like almost 2 months ago o.O. Strange thought australia gets a english version too?

 

[karasu]

supposedly...
australia is very very slow in getting new movies...
the movie that was out this week was:
Click
Over the hedge

remember, we are further down below
even asia got it much faster than we did...

Yeah, but it's not exactly an adaptation of the first game. The movie is before the 1st game, that's why the main character is a woman.
And, yeah, it's a really cool movie.

 

[siegfried]

game adaptations usually suck big time.Did you watch Resident evil 2?it was terrible.one of terriblest films I have ever seen.anyway silent hill havent come to here yet.but I will probably watch it if you say it is good.man can you believe "eternal sunshine of the spotless mind" came last week to the theatres in here.I download and watched that film over one year ago.it is worse than australia here.

 

[karasu]

lol...

speaking of which..
anyone looking forward, have any sneak peeks, or have any information on any groups doing subs on Death Note Movie?
it was out like last 17th of june in japan..
hope it's gonna be out for the net public soon..

Is anyone waiting for Superman Returns, it'll open in Indonesia on June 29. What's ur country Superman Returns release date?

 

[Analog Fish]

I haven't watched it yet, but I heard that Superman Returns is a great movie.

Anyway I watched two movies recently; the omen and Fast and The Furious Tokyo Drift. They both weren't bad movies and both had good points but The Omen needed a better ending and Fast and the Furious should just not worry about a story and just make it about driving.

 

[FusionD]

if anyone still wants info on spiderman 3....there a teaser trailer out now at:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zaaHTXuynn8
or you can goto the main site and watch in HD quality (i think) on quicktime : http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony_pictures/spider-man_3/

Oh... and superman returns?....just came back from watching it, very good movie enjoyed it very much.

released today ( 29t June ) in Australia.

 

[mike24567]

Yeah, Superman returns is projected to be one of the blockbuster hits of this summer, It will be pretty well, but they could have improved on the costume like they did with spiderman,daredevil, and the fantastic four.
