Best and worst movie's of 2004 - Page 2

*damnhooligan* · 05-17-2004, 05:57 AM

Ghost Soldiers was pretty intense. Loved the book, but I'm kind iffy about the movie. I heard Tom Cruise and Spielberg were attached to the film, and though that's no longer the case now, it still left a bad taste in my mouth.

Oh well. Wait and see.

EDIT: F*ck. Cruise is a Producer.

Van Helsing was good as an action film. You have to be thankful that they didn't make Dracula a wimp or just a corny cliche, he was definately more violent then in older movies. It would have been nice for them to build up some more storyline and indepth character exploration, but for that you'd need a tv miniseries, and if that ever happens, you just know the quality will go down the drain. I have a feeling though that they'll make both a miniseries and a sequel to that movie though.

Big fish. Nothing can compare to it this year. Biiiiiig Fiiiiish.

All the others I've seen this year sucked. Harry Potter 3 might be okay, though. But I'm definately not seeing TSOUE movie. The previews have "gay" plastered all over. TSOUE is tragedy!!! Not comedy!! Ugh!

*raphael_is_cool* · 05-17-2004, 12:48 PM

I quite liked The Girl Next Door

I wouldn't say I hate any films really (unless it's written by Charlie Kaufman). I need to watch more recent films rather than classics I guess

*The Stryker* · 05-17-2004, 06:14 PM

I Loved Van Helsing

My Only Gripe is the Ever-Whining Frankenstein's monster, damn he should just stick to "Eeeeeugh!!! Fire!!! Aaaahh!!"

And Igor! I Have a Shirt made from cheap Iron-on Decals with his Face and the fav Igor Quote "It's What I Do"

Punisher is probably my favorite so far this year, but it just may get beaten out by Spiderman 2. Worst movie I saw was...The Perfect Score. What was I thinking? Eh, The Punisher slaughtered that movie. I am also looking forward to a lot of movies, like the new Batman Movie. Oh, The Matrix movies ( the new ones, and I am not sure if they are from this year...) they SUCKED. They were so bad. Done.

Tim Burton is a retard. "I'm a kookie artist...I just love Movie Magic." What the hell was up with POTA? And this movie, Big Fish will beat Hellboy, Dawn of The Dead (The best yet), The Punisher (Also one of the best, if not a tie with DOTD), and The upcoming Spider-Man 2? I hated the first Spider-Man flick but I KNOW the second will be better than Big Fish.

The Truth usually is.

I don't know if it came out in 03 or 04 but 'You Got Served' needs to go down as one of the worst movies of all time. Pure fecal cinema.

Van Helsing(probably the worst movie I've seen priod)
Starsky and Hutch

Yeah, I wouldn't expect a sequel anytime soon. I mean what monster could he go after next? They've already covered the legendary monsters from before Hollywood got big.

Actually, I believe they are planning to make a sequel. The HBO making of special had the director talking about how he found all these obscure monsters that he wants to use the next go round.

Alright, being a dummy - have to ask, what is TSOUE??

Can't really weigh in, as I don't think I've seen any movies this year

But my crap-radar has set its sights on Catwoman...

I doubt one person could ruin the entire production. At least he isn't the star.

I liked the Batman films but other than that he sucks. With POTA he couldn't even get a single thought straight and then tries to say the ending was obvious to him

And I believe a producer can seriously affect a film, considering they can get the final cut (thus taking out significant scenes) as well as play a major part in the script and casting

Grave · 05-18-2004, 09:00 AM

I'v gone to the movies a total of four times this year, so I can't say much about anything.

I just found out last night that they have made and released a "Young Van Helsing" and some animated Van Helsing movie. I wonder what monsters he's battling in those?

I should have probably read the backs, but my attention span isn't that good.

Meira-Bates · 05-18-2004, 09:18 AM

x.x I've only seen Van Helsing so far, cause a friend dragged me to it- well no wait...was the last LOTR in Dec or Jan? But which ever it is, the same friend is planning to drag me out to watch Chronicles of Reddick(I think it was called)... I really need to start checking out what movies are coming out and then make her take me to one /I/ want to see. >.>

YOU DARE DISRESPECT BURTON?!?!?! ...he's awesome...

Did you ever read TNBC or seen the movie? The books better, but still... It's amazing... Big Fish rocked, man. IT ROCKED. WHAT I SAY COUNTS!!! GRAWR!
And, he's directing a stop motion animated feature (Just like TNBC!) called "The Corpse Bride" which looks AWESOME. SO SHADDUP.

I've yet to see Big Fish. Been waiting to rent it with a friend of mine, but he's busy...

*waits patiently still*
