Weekend Movie Review

Braveheart. Horrible movie. Can you say boring? Yup, wow lets right horrible story and then throw some violence in there to make up for the lacking plot. Yup.
Same thing applies to Gladiator. Classic? Classic piece of trash.

eat it.
-j00ce-

Pluto, there is already Oscar buzz around Crowe according to the media.

As far as it being compared to "Braveheart"...they are both about equal in my book. "Gladiator" probably just a tad better. I felt Braveheart was a tad drawn out.

I read an article the other day that there was over an hour worth of footage cut from "Gladiator." It's suppose to be added into the DVD version. I'm curious as to what exactly was cut from the movie.

Well, several women I know have said there is certainly no lack of hotties. Wow, all that a chick flick needs for you to think it's good is a few bucket fulls of blood.

Too bad Ridley Scott wasn't at Columbine with a couple camera crews. It'd be a box office smash!

Going from Scary Movie's trailer, I'd expect it to be hilarious, since I laughed my ass off at it.... but I wonder how it will work as a movie. Hopefully the trailer isn't full of the movies best parts, like some trailers have been in the past.

WHAT ABOUT SCARY MOVIE!!!!
THAT LOOKS GREAT!!!
one of the best in my mind already

Great movie. If "Gladiator" doesn't get any Academy Awards then something is wrong. I was totally engulfed the entire time. The ending was really well done too.

Dammit! How many of you guys got monitors screens that turn to a purple tint if you don't fiddle around with the cord in the back of it?

as for whoever said they can't wait for nutty professor 2, i have to say, ugh. my least favorite part of nutty professor was the stupid family. here's my "movie done quick" version of nutty professor 2:
"hay! ah'm fat!"
"me too! *FART*"
*FART*
*FART*
"ah'm fat!"
end

i know i really shouldn't be posting here if i feel that way, but i think about .000004% of flatulence jokes are anywhere near funny.

76,
agreed
i couldnt even watch that entire movie



LAME

Steve's description of the flick was exactly the way I descibed it to my buds. Good action, never felt it was drawing on, lacked the mandatory breast scene... a must see.

Steve, good call. We still need you busy on password cookies. :)

Thanks!

Everyone download this song right now and listen to it all the way through. It's music to my ears.

My top 3 movies. And I don't even like them that much either.

1. Pink Floyd The Wall
2. Taxi Driver
3. A Clockwork Orange

All new movies suck! I hate Hollywood! I'm not going to see or rent 1 single movie this year. Passive entertainment is dead. No books, no movies, no bullshit.

53,

hahahahahhahahahah

WAH.

Gladiator owned.

As far as summer movies go, I'll be the first dude in line for Nutty Professor 2: The Klumps.

I laughed my ass of watching the original (crying in the movie theatre during the dinner scenes) and I just found out that Janet Jackson is in this sequel.

* W O O O O O O D *

I'll be there.

Gladiator sucks.
Fight scenes so complex and horribly edited that you're lucky to know who is dying and when. Special effects, while sometimes adequate, are often plain shitty (flocks of birds, dirt flying). Entirely generic and predictable plot points and characters. Lengthy and over-dramatic "talky" scenes which draw the movie to the 2.5 hour mark for no particular reason. I liked Alien and Blade Runner because they had a lot of new stuff to offer. Gladiator offers a cool main character and some fairly intense fighting scenarious, but nothing else.
Gladiator sucks.

P.S. Anyone notice that after the gladiators had their final bloody uprising against the Roman guards, they manage to all show up in the final arena without a scratch on their bodies??? I'm sure the Roman guards were like "okay show's over people, go back to your cells now." Whatever.

Hey you! Go to http://www.missionimpossible.com/ and get the giant new MI2 trailer. It will kick your ass.

This summer: MI2, Perfect Storm, Gone in Sixty Seconds.

haven't seen the movie yet but i have to agree some of the cg in gladiator does look fake-ish.

from the trailer, the tiger scene... the tiger just sticks out, dunno how to explain it... it just has that jumanji effect :)

is IN

Steve is is a wassup over at:

http://www.lickmysweaty.com/

they (Disney) spent more then $150 millions on that "Dinosaur", so it might be good in words of eye candies

and Gladiator was very good...

Gladiator was good.

Braveheart was [much] better though (not taking anything away from gladiator).

Not too much really catches my eye this summer. MI:2 looks good. Oh, and I want to see Dinosaur (disney cg animated movie). Thats about it that I know of...

I'm off to E3. Cya next week guys.

fight club was ok, i watched it past midnight with a bunch of friends. we were all half asleep :)

it all seemed sorta like a dream so the movie was sorta cool :)

i can imagine though if i were to watch it during the day or something and was expecting a good movie, i'd hate it :)

i'm bored !
what are some of the more watchable movies? and i don't mean just plain cool movies... matrix was awesome when i first saw it but after seeing it over and over again, it seems BORING and drags on a lot :) plus the effects don't seem so appealing anymore. (the minigun bullet rain is still woodworthy though :)

pulp fiction is a fun movie to watch over and over again (if just for the cool lines), but i have to wonder how much longer it will be until that movie gets boring as well...

braveheart... i couldn't stay awake the first time i saw it :) heck i don't think i've ever seen the movie in one sitting :)
armageddon (sp?) gee this movie REALLY sucks ass the second time you watch it hehe.

OMG GO SEE THE MOVIE!!!!!!
