It would have been somewhat contrary to the spirit of the books if Hermione had had to go to Professor Sprout for an Abortion Potion after a drunken fling with Ron, it's true. _________________ Da Fro-mastah of da aLp Forums!

Taken.
I don't know about you, but I thought it was one of the greatest action movies to ever come out in these past few years. once Liam Neeson started kicking ass, it just didn't stop until the bitter end. for a guy who's best known for his "Qui-Gon" like roles, it's nice to see him being badass again.
and now I have the urge to find and rent/buy Darkman. |

The "new" Fast and the Furious. Was ok. Also rented Coraline and picked up some 3-d glasses. Hope to watch it tonight with the Wiff. _________________ "If wishes were horses, we'd all be eating steak." |

I thought the new Fast and Furious was better than the other two sequels.
And uhm, Deep Blue Sea was the last movie I watched. _________________

Yah, I swear if you ended his movies a half hour early, they would still be better than the god-awful endings. _________________ You forget one thing: rock crushes scissors. But paper covers rock... and

I hope he doesn't do that to Avatar. Oh, I mean, the Last Airbender. But I don't think he can, or he'd fuck up the story.
Actually, I can see him doing that with Book 2, Spoiler: | since it's suppose to happen anyway. |

Lovely movie.
I saw Spiderman 3 last, and I can't help but think why...
Could there be a more disappointing venom? _________________ Back in action |

How about the one in the Ultimate Spider-Man game? Actually, that one is still better, but only because you could be him, something the Spidey 3 game lacked.
I really hope they don't screw up the Lizard. Or (because we know he'll be in in a sequel) Kletus. |

I kind of like the scorpion as a Spiderman villain.
Even though he is somewhat of a clutz... _________________ Back in action |

| I guess that could work... I mean, they'd even have a chance to redeem Venom. |

I also heard rumors of carnage, but that would mean they'd have to get Venom back as well.

It'd also be cool if they changed as little as possible from the original character.
I mean, they're movies based on comic book characters, why would some directors go all the way of changing characters, just so they'd be more appealing to the general public? It's still a movie made from a comic book char, so if you go see it, why would you have right to complain if the movie seems a bit 'childish' or 'over the top' for you...? _________________ Back in action |

The Fast & The Furious: Tokyo Drift
I liked it. For a while I avoided this film because it looked bad, even worse than the first two films. Aside from the latest film which was actually pretty good, this film decided to do things smart; by being stupid. Instead of trying to rationalize things like the other films tried and only the fourth suceeded, it skipped all justifications and just gave car porn, women in scant clothing, and cliches in such a mindless way it worked. The first two films was set around street racing and gave us characters that really were not that interesting, this movie just gave you carboard cut-outs that knew how to drive, but took the time to explain what is going on, then got to the driving. They had the 25-year old high school student, they had the Obi Wan who helps him out and then dies, they had the annoying buddy who gets his ass-kicked, they had the Ace who is the villain and rival, they had the hot girl who takes interest because she is not Japanese, they had the cars.
The film was just so awful I could not help but love it. Every chracter was so broken and stupid that they only worked because the movie was too. Every time the characters were involved in a conflict; say a chase, they would obviously do it with cars, they did everything with cars. The character actually could have escaped every chase if they just ran into a building so the villains could not pursue. "They fled into a building, crap! Our cars can't follow them in there!" It wasn't until I saw this film that I realized that there are no fist-fights in these films, just races. To defeat these characters, just wreck their car. There was even a scene involving an old muscle-car in the garage that needs to be fixed, prompting me to predict that this was going to be a working progress until the final act where the main character finally tunes it up and uses this to close the conflict and win the race. Why would I think that? BECAUSE THE OTHER FILMS DID THE SAME FUCKING THING!
But like I said, this film was so straight-forward and blunt, it was brilliant, much like the Transformer films.
I actually think this movie was a satire on the previous films, which may explain why the latest was so dynamic. _________________ Only the strongest will survive.
