    Just got home from my summer job. It's amazing how much it surprises people to know I'm 23.

    ...

    I go out and get drunk, and look what happens while I'm gone! The Tavern is closed, and a whole new thread emerges!

    Edit: And that's some pretty messed up stuff going on in Laos...yikes!

    [FONT=&quot]The movie lacked execution. The scene you see at the trailers where he jumps from the hummer to the helicopter was just so sudden (I guess he is random)

    But for an action movie of 2009, it lacked polish and a really hard going, proper script. That said, it is the better of the series

    Saw it cause the first x-men was the first movie the misses and i saw.

    Place i have a secret man crush on Ryan Renolds (I wish i was him etc).

    It was alright. If I cought the film at the mattenee $5 versus the normal $8-9 I'd say it was worthe the money. (assuming you are not a fan of deadpool).

    Transformers 2 will suck. Anything made by Michal Bay will suck. This is the will of our lord God, and so it shall be for all time (amen).

    Star Trek will rock all of our socks off (hard core).

    The new Terminator could go either way; it seems to borrow the skinjob concept from Battlestar, but again, it all comes down to writing and execution. I predict it will be good, but am not sold 100% on the idea.


    Where the wild things are will see me camping out to see it opening night.

    see, I missed Transformers on the big screen and when i got the DVD I creamed myself. I liked it a lot. I liked the old school animation, but not enough to be disappointed with a movie (like a lot were).

    I know there is a lot of Michael Bay hate (And believe it or not i knew these comments were coming). Didn’t he make The Rock? oh well, I must admit the trailers look not even half as good as one, but I’m watching it.

    Star Trek - Dont really care too much, not a trek fan, but its old school ST, the only part i do like, to a degree.

    Terminator Salvation, I’m certain for me it will fail. Nothing can ever, ever, ever compare with number 2!, but I have chosen to hype it up for thereason that it will be nice to watch once.


    I m hating hollywoods stupid "re-booting" old franchise’s. It saddens me.

    Terminator will be overkill by the end. The new star trek movie is going to be a trilogy (please, WHY!), and the dude who made Sin City and Planet Terror has just green lit Predator 3! (Great movies already killed by AvP to continue epic fail)



    When i watch that trailier i get the same feeling of brillance that i do when i watch Doinnie Darko...feels so indie

    The fact that they didnt CGI it (They did the faces only by the looks of it), is such a great move.

    The director fought a long hard battle to keep his creatures animatronic. THe CGI faces were a compramise with the studio (a fair one I'll admit)

    Well the result of the battle looks pretty sweet.

    I love the soundtrack that i saw over the trailer too, not sure if its official (probably is) Think it was aracade fire. The misses was in tears just watching the preview, Maybe i should go alone.

    I'm off to see Star Trek on Friday, and although I prefer Star Wars I'm looking forward to it.

    Star Trek helps to give me a claim to some sort of fame. Patrick Stewart, who played Captain Picard in The Next Generation, was born 300 yards up the road from where I'm sat now and went to the school that became my secondary school. His brother lived 50 yards up the road from me for 10 years.
