Superman returns was OK.

 

[DarkBliss]

not a dark knight fan then?

nah

 

[seedofvengeance]

I think it would be a great competetition between Michael Bay and Shaymalan for the worst director.
If either of them is mentioned in the credits of a film, I immediately do not want to see it.

 

[The Ozzman]

*Spoilers for Unbreakable ahead!*



Willis does not know he is a hero and Jackson is trying to prove it to him, the reason being that Jackson needs to feel like he has a place in the world. If Willis is the hero, then Jackson gets to be the villain thus having a purpose in life. Jackson states a few times in the movie that there is nothing worse in life than now knowing your place in the world. To try and find out who his opposite is, Jackson commits all sorts of terrorist acts looking for someone who would survive. He de-rails a train and Willis survives. Jackson confronts him about being a hero and Willis thinks he is crazy. Willis then realizes he has never been hurt or sick in his entire life. He was in a major car wreck in college that he faked being hurt in so he could get out of playing football. After entertaining the possibility of being a hero Willis discovers he has strength far above that of an average man and some sort of super intuition which allows him to know what a person has done wrong. While at a train station he bumps into someone who killed a set of parents and is keeping the daughters captive. He follows the man home and rescues the girls, becoming a real hero. The movie ends with a typical Shamalan twist and when Willis shakes Jackson's hand sees all the horrible acts he has committed. The end.

Overall I enjoyed the movie. It is not a tricky movie to understand, but i can see not getting it if you didn't watch the whole thing.

Thanks...clears it up for me.

Worse than Fast and the Furious?

[Krigloch the Furious]

just watched Batman Gotham Knight.
Some of the stories were damn cool, and a couple of them were fairly dumb.

 

[Lotus-Eater]

Watched a flick from 1975 "I Spit on Your Grave" Brutal rape scene in it. Not bad for a 30 somewhat year old movie. The chick that got raped put the hurt on her attackers.

 

[Personified Hatred]

Last movie watched:

Eyes Wide Shut - A total masterpiece.

 

[Heat Mizer]

Anyone into the Masters of Horror series?

I watched on called "The V Word" By Mick Garris.

It was one of the better ones of the series.

Only about an hour long.

Last movie watched:

Eyes Wide Shut - A total masterpiece.

i finally got around to buying the dvd the other day

 

[SweptbackFlame]

Went to see Eagle Eye last night, Awesome movie from the get go.

 

[AchrisK]

^Yeah, that was entertaining.

Anyone seen Big Trouble? Friggin Hilarious movie. Based on a Dave Barry book.

 

[Master_Yoda77]

I am amazed that you actually enjoy Eagle Eye...

AchrisK-->Do you mean Big Trouble in Little China?

 

[AchrisK]

No, just Big Trouble. Stars Tim Allen, Dennis Farina, Zoe Daschanel (sp?), Patrick Wharburton (sp?) and a bunch of other people. It contains a little bit of terrorism in the plot and I think it was released too soon after 911 and so it was hardly even heard of.

I've only seen Takashi Miike's contribution, Imprint. Huge fan of Takashi Miike, but I didn't like Imprint much.

 

[Heat Mizer]

Unfortunately considering the directors that played a part in making this series. For the most part the movies are not too good. I have seen about 6 so far.

 

[CF87]

I'm really not a huge fan of Shamylan's movies anyway.

Me either. I watched The Happening earlier which was actually pretty good and better than expected. The Village was awful.
