RedM Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 2012: the NEW disaster movie from Roland (Independance Day, Day After Tomorrow) Emmerich. It's got everything you could possibly want. HUGE waves, earthquakes, sh*t falling from the sky, buildings collapsing etc etc until you yawn in despair. No giant killer robots though. Anyhoo, watch this: Hz86TsGx3fc and then wonder if the next clip isn't more accurate. Warning: I found this clip made me LOL!

Possibly the same reason why people read your posts, they have nothing better to with their time and is a time filler if nothing else.

Charlotte Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Honestly, why do/will people go and spend good money watching films that treat you like idiots? I often wonder this. I see some absolute rubbish sometimes and think, WTF. We are definitely a race of stupid people though that don't like to push boundaries and think about anything other than explosions etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted July 27, 2009 Author Share Posted July 27, 2009 looks good if u ask me, the gfx could be special That's all that these films are though. FX extravaganzas. I reckon they just get together and brainstorm all the unlikely things that they'd like to see. For instance: That aircraft carrier being carried into the White House by a wave. If the views are correct and the image hasn't been reversed then the wave is coming from inland! FAIL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted July 27, 2009 Author Share Posted July 27, 2009 Being that you posted a thread in NWS regarding explosion and boobies I'm afraid I can't. BOOM! BUSTED! 'Twas not a film though. I paid no money money for it and therefore didn't perpetuate a movie studio's belief that people pay to watch sh*te. Personally, I thought the explosions and boobs site was lacking but linked it here because I thought it'd be liked (and that people might like me for posting it) and it didn't get a great response. So, meh.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the best movies I seen where Chinese, Japanese and Korean films that did not get major UK release. Oldboy was excellent and the Japanese horrors where just on another level compared to mainstream big budget horrors from the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTRickeh Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Loved the spoof. Bit like Kentucky Fried Movie, 'That's Armageddon!'. Would go see it if there's nothing else to do, at least you know it's crap so you're not going to be too disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guigsy Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Saw a trailer for this while i was in the states... Looks like all unrealistic special effects. Looks like drivel. I usualy sit through trailers thinking "oh looks interesting/good" but this one made me thing "wtf lol, what bollocks" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl_S Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 films do not treat you like an idiot. No one holds you down. Walk out of the cinema, fall asleep, kiss your woman, or eject that dvd. Empowering actions for a safer britain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Multics Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 District 9 looks interestings: Surrogates that looks a cheap amalgamation of Matrix/Minority Report/Blade Runner and other good sci-fi's: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted July 28, 2009 Author Share Posted July 28, 2009 Surrogates looks good but it's District 9 that's been on my radar for a months. It looks very well done although I expect the deeper meanings of the film will be lost on most audiences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
