Weekend Box Office Report

Recommended Posts

Okay, forget I said anything, jesus H...League looked good, good premise, good comic series, came off retarded and hokey. I get that same vibe from Watchmen. I'm sure I'd appreciate it more if I read the book, but alas this is where I'm at.

Sin City was a better movie than Watchmen though I'm sure some would disagree with that opinion. It's also unbelievably faithful to the comics down to the last panel. Watchmen is the sort of graphic novel that would make a great HBO miniseries.

Ha ha, I'm not busting your balls Lushus. Just saying, Watchmen has its problems but League was SO bad. You know speaking of, that makes Sean Connery share the honor (with Uma Thurman) of being in TWO of my least favorite movies ever: Avengers and League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

 

And shit, they're both based on Alan Moore comics! That's... something.

To get back to Taken for a minute, I thought the trailer was awesome for that movie. One of the best trailers in a long time actually, since it took a movie I hadn't heard of and by the time it was over I definitely wanted to see it. It sets up the premise nicely with her being kidnapped, shows us Neeson's kick ass phone speech promising acts of horrible violence, but it shows us very little. I saw that trailer before The Day the Earth Stood Still and thought "Man, I wish they were showing me that movie instead of this."
