Rant
In the past two years I've noticed an annoying trend in a lot of films that come out. They are a lot of them Sequels, Prequels or Remakes.
It's like after that writers strike two thirds the good writers were lured into a room with a pay rise and killed, then replaced by unimaginative Yes Men.
We can see you have no imagination, why keep trying to pretend you do?
Boo Hiss:
Underworld: Rise of the Lycans
Ace Ventura 3
Fast and Furious 4
Crank 2 High Voltage
Terminator 4
Night At The Museum 2
Transformers 2
Ice Age 3
Final Destination 4
Halloween 2
Descent 2
Saw 6
Boondock Saints 2
Ace Ventura was dead and buried. It was a lovely ceremony and we were all happy to move on with our lives with our special memories of him. Then, Ace Ventura 3. For kids.
You're really pushing it with this movie, you guys.
These movies I just had problems with-
Case 39. Why would a demon want ice cream and dresses? It makes no sense.
Paranormal Activity. NOT SCARY. Like Blair Witch, in a house.
Dorian Gray. I love the book, so this movie was particularly irksome to me.
Not that all of last years movies were shit. Push, Watchmen, Moon, District 9, Inglourious Basterds and Law Abiding Citizen were all good. I was pretty ticked off about the end of Law Abiding Citizen though...
Avatar looked cool and the Blue People side of it was wonderful. But the dialogue of the humans was awful- the stereotypical army guy said stereotypical army stuff; the stereotypical pilot chick said stereotypical pilot stuff, she even had aviators and chewing gum. Most of the human characters were more like caricatures.
In closing, I totally oppose this cesspool of remakes and sequels (oh yeah, there's also Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps coming out. Jesus.) that we've been served as though it was all Oscar winning material. Not that the Oscars hold much weight with me, personally.
Out.
