Re: Watchmen Whoa whoa whoa!!!!!!!!!! Looks like I DID hit a nerve! :eek: Hehe, Lin, I like your criticism and your thoughts, and it is awesome that I can have an agreement/disagreement with an author. P.S. You have very interesting work...I watched that sex video (the one with the guy...

Re: Watchmen Hehe, this is fun... Ok Lin, Mr. Guest Author/"former movie critic"...I guess I will just have to reiterate once again... First, go to dictionary.com. Look up "aesthetics". Read. Think about it. Put it in a sentence.:D #1: This culture (specifically AMERICAN culture) is in...

Re: Watchmen Wow...you still dont get it do you?? I understand that for purposes of "expanding"knowledge to folks for the sake of a better review is essential. HOWEVER... Once again, people dont give a **** what reviews say. In fact, you take the average viewer and put a review with a...

Re: Watchmen Lin, I could see where you are coming from. However... Like I stated before, the average joe schmo is ignorant. You and I will both agree that even American culture is so hyped on everything being the best price, fastest way, and easiest route. For example, look at diets. I am...

Haha, well Kevin I agree it wasnt horrible, but I cant decide if the 6-hour intro or Parker Posey's overacting ruined the whole thing...However, I feel the only great thing is that Kevin Spacey was amazing.

I agree on the whole script thing. If the movie is done perfectly well, that of like Gladiator writing or even Dark Knight writing, then it is very possible that Thundercats can be made. I feel that Star Trek is going to be awesome. They have an actor who looks exactly like Spock and a great...

Oops, haha, didnt put "Hawking" instead of "Hawkins". :rolleyes:

Just want to see your thoughts. The possibility of other lifeforms or the way a black hole is formed just amazes me. The Earth is the planet with the perfect conditions for life...the odds that there are other planets out there similar to Earth are great (or other life forms that evolved on a...

I just want to be sucked into a Black Hole so that I can prove 2001: A Space Odyssey wrong :p :wink:

Re: Watchmen Yay!

Re: Watchmen Very, very true. Especially the last part of the statement. Critics do put a sour taste on how a movie is "good" or "bad" (One example would be the movie "The Rock"...I loved that movie, but when I was younger reading the reviews, it had HORRIBLE ratings). So I can definitely...

Re: Watchmen Ok, I could see your point on Ebert. However, I see it this way: He had to dumb down the rating system for the general public. The complex system of rating movies with the flow, graphics, sound, storyline, etc... is far too superior to the knowledge of the people. The target...

Re: Watchmen Oh ****! Lol, I'm sorry!

I know this isnt sci-fi, but I am extremely excited about what me and 3 other dudes are doing this Friday for a week: We are doing Man V. Food! We are huge fans of the show, and love the host. We are going to various cities and not only get trashed from good 'ol alcohol, but eat ourselves like...

Re: Watchmen I actually liked the movies ending. I was a huge fan of the Novel (and the other books that were published), but the ending wasnt too far from the books. Basically everything happens the same, but instead of Doctor Manhattan going to Mars, he goes to another galaxy. And instead of...
