H2O was sort of a Scream knock off as well. Did you like that more than Urban legend?
Don't think I saw H20. If I did, I remember nothing of it. Was Busta Rhymes in that?

Edit: LL was in H20. Busta was in Halloween Resurrection. I remember neither of those movies, though I'm sure I saw the Busta one :manny:

I remember Busta spoiling Resurrection on an episode of Smackdown :dead:



The promotion this movie got was insane. The only movie I went to the theatres to see just for me. I begged my mom.

It's an awful ANY movie and probably the worst Bond. And features far and away the worst title song too.
It's an Allround disaster.

I don't know why people hate that movie so much, I think it's the second best Craig Bond, doing what license to kill attempted to do but failed: showing James Bond in rage mode going rogue.

It's 3rd act is a mess, almost entirely thanks to the writer's strike. I still love QoS tho

to me there was a way bigger story in QoS when he found all those bad guys at the opera house and its like they just discarded that plotline when it should have been the main focus of the movie, plus mr white got away...:beli: that pissed me off...

The Deer Hunter

Granted I only seen it one time, but that movie dragged after the first part.

The movie didn’t suck but the James Bond movie that opens with the day of the dead sequence was the best part of the movie, the rest was pretty mediocre

James Bond movies tend to fall apart in the third act. QoS, Skyfall and Spectre all have that problem (in a way, even Casino Royale does, since the movies climax is when Bond gets tortured by Le Chifre, only to then continue for what feels like another hour. It would have probably been better to end the movie after Mr White shoots Le Chifre and start QoS with Bond and Vesper in Venedig.) However, I think Spectre is the worst of the Craig Bonds, followed by Skyfall. I never understood why the latter gets celebrated so much. It has beautiful cinematography, but the plot makes absolutely no sense and in the third act it turns into a cape fear knock off.

QoS on the other hand is a decent Bond movie, not the best but not as bad as people make it out to be.

:ohhh:Sicario was flames explain:ufdup:

I've always been more of a 'plot' guy than an 'acting'/'character' guy so I personally got fed up of watching films that required attention to subtle detail and constant thinking after watching Sicario, as opposed to films that were great whilst being simple. Similar to songs with complex lyrics rather than simple lyrics that hit you more on first listen. If it was simple to understand for everyone else, then good for them, but I hate watching films where I can barely follow what is going on. Even after reading other people's critiques after watching it (such as the audience learning things only when the main character learns things), I understood it more but it didn't make me like the film any better.

The lack of dialogue didnt help either. Josh Brolin's character the only person I remember even talking in that film.

And I know some of you are probably thinking, " Clive42 you dumbass:camby:, how does the film make you have to think harder, or where was the subtlety in Sicario, how'd you not get this film:dahell:? But as I implied, as a plot progresses, and the more random things start to get, rather than in line with the story's progression, the more I expect a clear resolution. But when you mix a lack of dialogue into that, then I'm just gonna get less and less engaged. I also never hated the film. Based on what I did take in, I though it was alright, just not amazing like the reviews and audience suggested.

The opening scene was flames though, and so was that final scene :damn:- I might not of understood the whole movie but I def understood that final scene.
