Since we are on to the movie trailers at the moment. This one looks to be a good one:

iiiiii dunno, its borderline greatness and ham.
like that one remake of a 50's movie with Tom Cruise and the annoying girl in it.
lets just hope the best parts of the movies arent all in the previews;)

Angels & Demons looks like it could be good. The Taking of Pehlam 123 could be good. Love Denzel and Gandolfini.

Most other previews I've seen havent been memorable.

Been to the movies twice this week.

The International - Weak. Whats-his-face just isn't that good. I really have a hard time giving a **** about him in movies. And, a terrible, terrible ending....

Taken - Surprisingly good. I saw it thinking it would generally suck, but I'm a big Liam Neeson fan so I took a look. Pleasantly surprised. While there is some bad dialogue, etc, the action scenes are great, and Neesons character is awesome. He's an older, retired Jason Bourne type, but willingly so. Meaning, he's a total bad ass. Worth seeing....

I'm also on the fence about seeing Watchmen. I think it may have potential!

[Tchocky]

Can't wait for Watchmen

Most initial reviews look good, currently re-reading the comics :)

Unfortunately, I'll be in bastard France until Wednesday, so no cinema for me until then.

Dragging Ms Tchocky too.

"But I hate those comics"

"Shut up and read!"

The Taking of Pehlam 123 could be good. Love Denzel and Gandolfini.
Another remake? Why?

[Nisgeis]

Another remake? Why?

Money is tight and studios don't want to risk cash on 'new' ideas.

Alternate idea as to the reason, Hollywood has run out of original ideas:yeah:

I figured that one out long ago. A few nights ago I chanced to see Crank for the first time. It wasn't until it was over that I realized I had just seen a stylish, funny, racy remake of...D.O.A. (1951).

[Enigma]

I firmly believe Hollywood is, by and large, creatively bankrupt. And, I think it's a result of the snobbish attitude that community has to anyone else, anywhere. (see any major awards show for a good idea of how highly these folks think of themselves for something as uncomplicated as acting. You'd think they cured cancer.)

Damn Enigma, something we agree on:yeah:

[Dowly]

Thanks, AVG. Never knew about this one. I like anything with Cage, thy just cant be bad movies. :yeah:

[AVGWarhawk]

I like Cage also. The only movie that really sucked that he did was the one were he is a skeleton on fire. Forget the name. I watched about 45 minutes of it. It was really bad.

Ah yes, never watched that one and prolly never will. :hmmm:

[AVGWarhawk]

Yeah, do not bother because it will only end up being 1 1/2 hours of your live wasted. :88)

Speaking of Cage, Lord of War, fantastic film...:yeah:
