Yus, that was annoying indeed! :( I'll be seeing it when it comes out here tho :)
Russell - it was "For Love of the Game". That was the baseball flick Sam Raimi directed starring Kevin Costner...

Also, let us know if you hear anymore rumours on Evil Dead 4.
 
I think they always wanted to, but since you can hardly call the Evil Dead trilogy a success (box office), it was difficult to get funding.

I'm guessing that since Sam Raimi has Spiderman (1 & 2) under his belt, he's now on the A-list and can pretty much write his own ticket...
 
There is also the rumor that there will be a Freddy vs Jason sequel where the only man who can kick both their asses enters the movie... Ash. FvJ did so well, I expect a sequel, in the right hands, throwing Ash into the mix might be amazing...

Talk about wet dream...

I've yet to see FvJ. Doubt it would take long before it hits DVD format though.
 
Who else thinks that the greatest werewolf movie ever made was "American Werewolf in London"? And the worst was "American Werewolf in Paris"!

How incredible that the director (John Landis) that once made The Blues Brothers, Werewolf/London, Trading Places, and Animal House went on to make Oscar, Beverly Hills Cop 3, Blues Brothers 2000, and Werewolf/Paris.
 
Ash should be in every movie ever made, just to kick everyone's ass.

Paris was okay, not very good, but entertaining at least. London is untouchable.
 
It's what ruined the new Star Wars. Muppets fucking own, CGI is stupid.

You know that one scene in Blade II with the CGI? That fucking pissed me off, tell me that Wesley Snipes couldn't have done that by himself!?!?

Oh yeah. When Attack of the Clones came out, people were raving just because it was better then Phantom Arse. In hindsight, it's equally as bad. It's like watching a cartoon. What's funnier is when human actors talk with 'invisible' CGI actors and their eyes never match up when face to face.

Bring back rubber Yoda! Actually, don't even bother making Episode III. The damage is done now. Ewan McGregor should stick to making indie films like Trainspotting and Shallow Grave.

No, which one? There were quite a few CGI moments in Blade II. Are you talking about the bit when the assault team break into his warehouse? Actually, I like Blade II a lot - I think CGI used for effects (such as vampires exploding into dust) is ok. It's when they take over the movie that annoys me.
 
The warehouse fight scene yes. The exploding vampires and the like was definitely cool, but when CGI takes over for a role easily done by real actors (or any tangible thing really) it pisses me off. It made no sense, there were a million choreographed fight scenes in that movie, but that one just HAD to be CGI for some reason. And yeah, Blade II kicked ass.

Everyone and their brother kept telling me "go see Star Wars II, just to see Yoda kick ass at the end." I was inundated by this for months, then finally the DVD came out and I watched it. That scene was so fucking dumb! Oh good, some animator made Yoda suck and spin, hoo-fucking-ray.

It was retarded. I mean, it was Monty f'ing Python. This little green old muppet limps around with a twiglet cane, and when called for action he becomes a chinese acrobat.

I'm dreading the fourth Indiana Jones by the way. I think both Spielberg and Lucas have lost their magic. And Harrison Ford is old, out of shape, and the gay love servant of Ally McBeal.
 
Ever see the Mad TV version of George Lucas? Funny as shite, he was portrayed by the big fat guy on the show (who isn't fat anymore) who drove around "Skywalker Ranch" (a small residential home with a brown lawn) on a golf cart while being interviewed by Katy Couric.

For me, It would go something like this.
1. The Company Of Wolves
2. The American Werewolf In London
3. The Howling
4. Dog Soldiers
5. American Werewolf In Paris
 
The Exorcist - seen it before, it still rules, especially "fuck me! fuck me!"
House of a Thousand Corpses - not enough gore or nudity. Pretty much sucked. Doctor Satan was cool, though
I Spit on Your Grave! - gratuitous nudity = good. Predicable plot = bad. The penis-cutting scene was painful to watch. Decent movie, but nowhere near good.

That's about right. Jason Miller = underrated actor.
Ahh Father Karras. Yes, it's a mindblowing performance. He appears briefly in part 3 too. Have you seen The Exorcist III? It's a very worthy sequel (much more in the vein of a thriller) but it stars George C Scott who was one of the finest actors of our time. And of course, Scott also stars in one of the other greatest horror movies ever, The Changeling.
