300 was garbage. It felt like a 2hour music video with muscle bound freaks beating their chests yelling sparta. all style no substance.

such a letdown compared to Frank Miller's other works.

1/5

I will probably get the Blu-ray for Sunshine.

But the ending of the movie with the religious/spiritual cop-out completely ruined the movie for me.

2/5

So I just watched Transformers finally... not only was it the worst movie of 2007, but it's in the running for worst movie I've ever seen in my life.

Transformers and 300 are very hot candidates for the Worst Movie of 2007 award.

The only reason why i am not naming Transformers as the worst, because there have been other "very bad" comic book / cartoon turned movies out there. such as : Fantastic 4, Elektra, Daredevil, The Punisher, The Hulk, ........... and the list goes on.

I've seen those too (with the exception of The Punisher), and Transformers was still far, far worse.

In fact, I can only conclude that anyone who enjoyed that movie must have the intellect of an acorn.

punisher 2 is in the making and also they are re-doing the hulk movie again... b/c they realize that the first one was complete and utter shit..

FF4-rise of silver surfer was garbage

and Porky! what up dude.. and totally agree on 300... no plot that was worth anything and agree on the 2hr music video type filming..

juno had the potential to be good, but the ending was very oridinary and nothing that ohh'ed me or wow'ed me... just eh, too real lifeish..

i am legend was by far my most hated movie... but i rambled on my distaste on that one in another thread...

transformers was great eye candy and just had such the kid in me cheering for it on the whole time...

the mist and elizabeth: the golden age are my top 2 movies...

elizabeth had me reading about english monarchy for 6hrs on wikipedia that night after the movie... and the mist had me join a chat forum to talk about it i was so pumped when i had just seen it..

I just saw Charlie Wilson's and I have to say I was disappointed. It didnt seem like Aaron Sorkin wrote it.

This thread is dated.

Yeah, I've heard bad things. In other news, I decided to re-watch the entire West Wing series in order, and am almost out of Sorkin episodes.

Anyone seen "I Am Legend" with Will Smith?

I went in not expecting much but was damn surprised...very inventive movie. Definitely one of my favs for the year. 4.5/5

Maybe my problem was that I went in expecting too much, but I was actually quite disappointed. It was eye candy for sure, but it really failed to live up to the substance of the original story or even the previous film adaptations.

You read too many books. Books are always better than movies.

Smith's performance surprised me in this one. It turns out he can actually act, lol

You've obviously not seen Pursuit of Happyness - he was really quite good in that one too imo.

Thats always depressing for me, too. You just gotta get through it.

Yeah, I might have to skip seasons 5-7 and just start all over again on Episode 1, Season 1. It's a new year after all.

i was actually quite nonchalant about him in Pursuit of Happiness. I see him more of an action star, rather than in drama / love movies. It's still a lot better position than what many thought he would be 10+ years ago when Fresh Prince was wrapping up, and people figured he wouldn't make too much of a mark in the movie industry after his success on tv. He has surprisingly brought himself to the next level away from the comedy genre into something different.

Will Smith is a really good actor. Like, he was in the one movie and I totally believed he was being serious. He really, really had me fooled. What a great performance. I was totally tricked into believing he was serious, so that makes him really, really super good at acting.

Anyone else's hands getting tired?
