Vanhalen 0 Report post Posted July 1, 2004 This thread is inspired by the Bad Boys 2 DVD I had the misfortune to buy, I really enjoyed Bad Boys, although it gets worse with each viewing, so I was really looking forward to the sequel, imagine my disappointment when its very boring, very very long, shootouts were poor, and Martin Lawrence was just shit, so any films you waited ages to see, and when you went to see them, actually turned out shit?

Guest Staravenger Report post Posted July 1, 2004 Jason X. Ft13th had always been one of my favorite horror film series', and I was chomping at the bit for a new one...and to say I was disappointed would be an under statement. I'm just glad F v. J restored my faith in the series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vanhalen 0 Report post Posted July 1, 2004 Actually, I was disappointed at that too, not because it was a bad film, its just I spent the first hour just thinking, come on, when the fuck are they going to fight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest DVD Spree Report post Posted July 1, 2004 Although I don't think the movie "sucked" I was so hyped to see "Dogma" that when I eventually did it wasn't nearly as good as I thought it would be... TOTALLY agree with this. I was kinda half-amped, half-pissed about the concept of Dogma because I'd been trying to write a story for a couple of years that was either going to be about two fallen angels who get kicked out of heaven or two fallen supercriminals who get kicked out of their supervillain group. Then when i was living in the States I saw the trailer and, although miffed that someone beat me to the punch, REALLY wanted to go see... It was okay. Not actively bad, but I think the whole thing fell pretty flat on the screen. It had the potential to be such a bigger, larger scale, more epic flick - instead it's an entertaining, enjoyable low-budget piece that succeeds more for the interplay of the friends/actors and its "Kevin Smith-ness" rather than successful execution of the idea. Still watch it religiously (ha!) every couple of months, though. Another flick I saw the trailer for while in the States was Romeo Must Die - I loved the idea of a gang war between yakuza-types and homied-out ganglords. It didn't come out until I was back in the UK, and when I finally got to see it... good lord. It continually amazes me how western filmmakers can make Jet Li - or, in fact, ANY proven and successful Asian superstar (Jackie Chan, Donnie yen...) - look like complete shit.

Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted July 1, 2004 Van Helsing! I knew it wasn't going to be a 5 star movie or anything, but man was that movie teh suxx. waaaaay worse than i thought it was going to be...Spider-Man was another one that just didn't blow me away like I was hoping it would...same with the newer Star Wars movies. I like them but only because it's Star Wars. they could have been loads better...same factor for the last two Matrix movies, though I think the hate on them is a little TOO critical. Overall they were good sci-fi action flicks and Hugo Weaving established Agent Smith as an awesome movie heel...add Blade 2 to the list, that movie sucked teh wang compared to the first one... I have my doubts about Alien Vs. Predator, something I've been waiting years and years to see...i mean after all it IS directed by Paul "i'm the one responsible for Mortal Kombat, Resident Evil and Event Horizon" Anderson...something tells me it will be a huge letdown...

AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted July 1, 2004 Some one was surprised that a Michael Bay directed/Jerry Bruckheimer produced movie sucked?!??!?! Surely you had to, in the back of your mind, know better than that. "Van Helsing! I knew it wasn't going to be a 5 star movie or anything, but man was that movie teh suxx. waaaaay worse than i thought it was going to be..." Agreed. I had heard Mr. Mummy wasn't a great director, but never saw much of his stuff and felt the source materials and concept were strong enough to make a good movie... Holy crap that movie sucked. Oh, and Ebert is a stupid douchebag for giving it 3 stars. I swear the guy is going senile or something. I have my doubts about Alien Vs. Predator, something I've been waiting years and years to see...i mean after all it IS directed by Paul "i'm the one responsible for Mortal Kombat, Resident Evil and Event Horizon" Anderson...something tells me it will be a huge letdown... There is no chance in hell of it being any good. Not only is Anderson directing, but he's doing the screen play. It takes place in Antarctica. If you've seen the ads you can tell from the tagline that the people making this have no freakin' idea what the Predators are about. "Whoever wins...we lose." NO! NO! NO! NO! Predators aren't mindless killing machines. They just crave combat with warriors of all races. If you're not armed, they won't even bother with you unless you were Mike Tyson and came up and punched one square in the face. They've been friends with some humans, even. If the Aliens would win, we'd be ****ed, but if the Predators win, they'll probably either leave, or head to the Middle East or something. However, they don't want to wipe out the human race or turn them into breeding colonies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheBigSwigg 0 Report post Posted July 1, 2004 1) The Punisher. The new one. It butchered the comic story and wasted so much time on the neighbors that I wanted to shoot myself. That and John Travolta sucked. 2) Batman Forever & Batman & Robin. I hope I don't need to explain that. 3) Catwoman. I haven't seen it yet, but I know I'll want to walk out. Scratch that, I'll want to run out. Halle Berry will ruin Catwoman the way she ruined Storm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Karnage 0 Report post Posted July 1, 2004 I was really looking forward to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon but when I watched it, it just bored me to tears. The first Spider-Man was great the first time, but when I watched it on DVD, it wasn't as great. Dogma was eh, I think there was too much hype and controversy around it that made it seem like it was going to be great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And then...it sucked. another one that dissapointed me was The Mummy Returns. The first one was a fun popcorn adventure with good special effects and nice charecters. The second one was just 95% of pure CRAP CGI, the FX totally ruined the movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ravenbomb 0 Report post Posted July 1, 2004 I was REALLY into the Hellraiser movies (even part 3) around the time Hellraiser: Bloodline came out. I didn't get a chance to see it in theaters, it was never on PPV unless I was at school or like 11:30 at night (this was before I'd stay up to 3 in the morning), and Blockbuster was always sold out. The more I waited the more hyped I'd get about seeing it. Then Blockbuster FINALLY had it...and it sucked ASS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Smues Report post Posted July 1, 2004 Star Wars: Episode 1. I waited until it had been out awhile to avoid the crowds, which was hard because I really wanted to see it. Finally see it, and was incredibly sad. Had it's moments, but overall I hated it. And I couldn't get Jar Jar's voice out of my head for weeks. Pearl Harbor would have disappointed me if I hadn't read a review a few days prior and realized it was a love story. After six or seven months of seeing the trailer I was incredibly hyped for it. Thank god at least going in I knew what to expect or I would have killed myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
