I could of done without all the religious nonsense. Or atleast have more of whats coming to them (her) towards the end. I expected more. A very depressing end.
I just expected alot more from The Mist. Although I liked it alot more when I thought of it as a retelling of the Half Life storyline. (which was based off the short story)

I went in with zero expectations and was pleasantly entertained by it, it stayed very true to the short story up until the ending. which, I thought was a better conclusion than the book, because it wasn't just a cliffhanger.

I read Truman Capotes book on it.
Then rented the movie in Cold Blood. The characters and what happened were dead on. Most of the locations were filmed were it actually happened. Those two guys hooking up together spelled bad news. |

I'm getting Hellboy 2 for sure.
It's a great movie, but I don't want it on Bluray. I don't see the point in HD DVD's. The increased frame denesity just makes the movies look more harsh. I much prefer that "film" look. There is a glowing softness to those older movies that is much more expressive than today's garish HD look. In fact, a lot of the filmmakers I know are talking about switching to that "film look" for their digital cameras...so what's the point in Bluray? It's great for animation detail, but overall I like the look of standard DVD's much better. |

Sheesh, this thread is huge.... Did anyone see the Director's Cut of Daredevil?
I didn't really love the theatrical version, but have always loved the character. So I was dissapointed. However, I was very pleasantly surprised by the Director's Cut. It's so much better. They literally cut out all of the best scenes in that movie. Kingpin is 10x better in the DC. And Matt Murdock actually has a bit of a storyline too. The scences with Coolio are pretty cool too. Much, much, much better than the theatrical cut. Still not a great movie, but it's decent with the Director's Cut. I like it. BTW- The Producer who made the Theatrical cut is a jackass. Watch the special features, and he talks about what he thinks of the Director's Cut. It's good for a chuckle. |

Yeah, I usually hate kid flicks that I have to go to with the fam, but this one was pretty funny. Movies like Finding Nemo, Cars, Shark's Tale, Bugs Life, etc bore me to tears. They're good sleeping movies tho, LOL! Kung Fu Panda is one we can all watch together. Jack Black and the guy who starred in "Deadwood" (one of my favorite HBO shows) are in it and they make great voice actors.
