  1. People consider Deep Impact better than Armageddon? In 98', I remember telling my friend Brian that Deep Impact was going to be better than Armageddon. Then in the summer after Armageddon came out, he remembered that and he rubbed it in my face that I was wrong. After reading that, I went into my suite and asked for guys, who are all over 21, which they liked better. All of them said Armageddon. No way am I saying Armageddon was a GREAT film or anything, but for what it was, it was okay. And Pearl Harbor worst film ever? I can think of 5 films off the top of my head that came out in the same year that made around the same money: Rush Hour 2, Jurassic Park III, The Fast and the Furious, Tomb Raider and Spy Kids. I don't really like PH, but to call it the worst film ever is ridiculous. I find it funny that the movie sucks so much since the same guy who wrote it, Randall Wallace, also wrote Braveheart which I love. Maybe I am biased because I don't hate Affleck like everyone else does. Maybe it is because he is in one of my favorite movies of all times, Dazed and Confused. Plus, he is in a few movies that I like a lot: School Ties, Boiler Room, Chasing Amy, and Changing Lanes.
  2. If Affleck picked roles like "Changing Lanes" than his career would do much better. In EW this week, they wrote that Affeck is working on another script. This thread is very interesting because some people are just straight out biased. Either you like Smith, so you will defend him, or you don't like Smith so you won't defend him. Or you like Affleck, so you will defend him, etc. I am a fan of Smith, but he isn't my favorite filmmaker. Ben Affleck is a decent actor, and there is no way anyone can dispute that. He does have acting skills, he just has this bad vibe over his head. Just got see "Changing Lanes," and you will see how well he can act.

    Weekend Boxoffice Report

    Opening weekends usually aren't what decide whether a sequel will be made, it's the second weekends that usually decide that. Opening weekends get the talks started but those talks have already started on Scooby 3 So sadly, I think "Scooby 3" was already in production and if the Scooby movie holds even 15-20 million next weekend then Scooby 3 will begin. Very true. Look at the Hulk, it made $62 million the first weekend and finished with $132 million. Don't look for a Hulk sequel anytime soon.
  4. Armageddon wasn't an "Affleck" movie, but he got third billing, which means he was a star. Plus, he was on the cover of the movie poster/DVD/VHS cover, which seems to me that he is still one of the stars of the movie. GWH didn't star him, but he did write it, so it was his film. That would be like saying that Finding Nemo wasn't Andrew Stanton's film, even though he did write it. Pearl Harbor was the annual historical blockbuster film, so that means that since Affleck was the star, he didn't get any credit? Huh? That doesn't make any sense. Affleck got first bill, had his face all over the posters and such, so it was his movie. And my point about Pitt was that Affleck's movies do better than Pitt's, but you never here backlash about Pitt. Besides Fight Club is overrated...

    The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread

    This is the WB Description for "Underneath": ANGEL FOLLOWS LINDSAY INTO A STEPFORD WIVES-LIKE SUBURBAN HELL - Hoping that Lindsay (guest star Christian Kane) has information on the Senior Partners’ ultimate plans, Angel (David Boreanaz), Spike (James Marsters) and Gunn (J. August Richards) track him down in a bizarre and terrifying suburban hell. Meanwhile, a nearly invincible stranger (guest star Adam Baldwin, "Firefly") sent by the Senior Partners, infiltrates Wolfram & Hart looking for Eve (Sarah Thompson). Alexis Denisof, Amy Acker and Andy Hallett also star. Skip Schoolnik directed the episode written by Sarah Fain & Elizabeth Craft.
  6. Actually, Ben has had a few hit movies. 1. Armageddon - $201 million 2. Pearl Harbor - $198 million 3. Good Will Hunting - $138 million 4. The Sum of All Fears - $118 million 5. Daredevil - $102 million 6. Shakespeare in Love - $100 million 7. Changing Lanes - $66 million 8. Forces of Nature - $52 million 9. Bounce - $36 million 10. Dogma - $30 million His movies actually do better than Brad Pitt, here are Pitt's top ten movies 1. Ocean's Eleven - $183 2. Interview with a Vampire - $105 3. Se7en - $100 4. The Mexican - $67 5. Legends of the Fall - $66 6. Spy Game - $62 7. Twelve Monkey's - $56 8. Sleepers - $53 9. Thelma and Louise - $45 10. Meet Joe Black - $44 Granted once Troy comes out, it will make big bucks. However, you never really hear how Pitt's movies don't do well in the box office.

    NCAA Men's BBall Tourney DAY ONE!

    I am ALLLLLLLL about UConn, but I could see Kansas/Duke/G. Tech/Ok St./Xavier beating them. If Gordon isn't playing well, then any team will beat them. If Gordon is playing well, then they won't loose. Fuck this Emeka shit. Yes, he is an amazing player and might have some Tim Duncan status in the NBA, but Gordon is the heart of UConn. I have watched them play ALLLLL season and anything can happen with UConn. Basically, there isn't ANY team that is the favorite. I love that because that is why I love March Madness and I doubt that no one will disagree with me.

    TNA-FSN info from Observer

    That is bullshit. If you get paid, I am sure you can save a little money to buy a suit or atleast a shirt that goes with a tie for godsake.

    NCAA Men's BBall Tourney DAY ONE!

    I thought the UConn game was on around 7ish, since I didn't bother checking, but of course I get home from work and it is almost over. But oh ya, FUCK YA, my team is in the Final Four. When I saw them in the beginning of the year, I said to my pops "This team will defiently not get to the final four." But that was when they weren't playing as a team, and when they do, they win. I hope I see a Duke/UConn game.

    The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread

    The second article your posted came out before the first one you posted. And if the love triangle between Buffy/Spike/Angel is to be resolved in the second to last episode, then I believe Angel will "win." And here is why. This is what Spike said in "Lover's Walk:" Spike: (faces them) You're *not* friends. You'll never be friends. You'll be in love till it kills you both. You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other till it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends. (points at his temple) Love isn't brains, children, it's blood... (clasps his chest) blood screaming inside you to work its will.

    D-12 feat. Eminem

    I second that one. I HATE Bizarre and I always thought he was one of the worst rappers ever. Then he comes on this song and actually raps, instead of his usual talking.

    And the "power" conferences, Big East and ACC, might end up not sending anyone.

    Either Wes or Gunn, more money on Wes because I can see him dieing saving someone's life.

    NCAA Men's BBall Tourney DAY ONE!

    Well, I am done believing that St. Joe's is overrated. If they make it to the National Championship and have to play Duke or UConn, I think they will loose there. I just can't see them being able to stop Emeka.

    1-95 closed due to Fiery blaze

    That portion of I-95 that was taken out was in HORRIBLE condition, so no wonder the road got fucked up. Looks like I won't be driving around from Long Island anytime soon; I'll have to take the ferry to get home.

    Rumored Episode 3 title

    Even though the episodes 1 and 2 sucked, I have a feeling that episode 3 will be good. Then again I said the same thing about episode 2, so got me.

    NCAA Men's BBall Tourney DAY ONE!

    thats the only way that prissy boy game should be played. Spoken like someone who's never even seen a lacrosse game. That game's brutal...worse than hockey at times. The goalie wears a helmet, a little bit of pads, and that is it. They have to be crazy to be goalie. I am surprised that LAX hasn't become popular in the US.
