Pretty much what Quickie said, while you're at it, buy the novel too. Also, check out Felidae and Watership Down~

Well, I watched GI Joe - The Rise of Cobra yesterday, which was opening day.
It was an ok watch for me, the CG looked... Rushed, and sometimes, a bit far off.
Then again, it's GI Joe. Then again, they did use the famous line.

I watched GI Joe yesterday too. I liked it, but then again I know nothing of GI Joe, so you guys could have complains about how they handled thing. However, be warned that it REALLY is non-stop action, you can pretty much count the minutes when [parasitic bomb] is not blowing up.

Although this movie isn't new, I think quite a few people may want to watch it. I mean, who wouldn't want to watch a movie called MEGA SHARK V.S. GIANT OCTOPUS.

Solar · **Reply #204 on:** August 11, 2009, 03:33:55 AM

Wait, that movie has been out for a while already?

*checks some youtube clips* Oh god, it looks even worse than I thought if that was possible

Quickman · **Reply #205 on:** August 11, 2009, 06:28:46 AM

I'm debating seeing GI Joe. I heard decent reviews for it, but I'm not sure if I wanna pay to see really shitty CG. And having dabbled in CG and knowing what to look for, I can spot it a mile away. Bad CG isn't funny like bad special effects, it's just bad CG. And that's terrible.

Solar · **Reply #206 on:** August 11, 2009, 07:00:35 AM

Oh, the CG is horrible, I suck at spotting bad CG, but even I could tell how horrible it was when that helicopter/airplane/thing looked right out of a video game.

Quickman · **Reply #207 on:** August 11, 2009, 07:04:02 AM

Eew. Yeah, that's pretty damn bad CG. That kinda bad CG would just be distracting.

Solar · **Reply #208 on:** August 11, 2009, 07:06:43 AM

That's as bad as it got IIRC (but it was still horrible), the CG isn't like that all the time, but if you have a good eye for CG then you'd probably notice its lack of quality.

I say watch it anyways because I found it to be fun with your brain turned off.

This. And it's in the first 10 minutes of the movie.
Well, it's an origins movie, or so they say...

Fxeni · **Reply #210 on:** August 11, 2009, 01:26:02 PM

Well, I saw it, and it wasn't as bad as say Transformers 2. Still, the only characters they got remotely right were Snake Eyes and Scarlett. The CG did bug me at points though.

Alice in Entropy · **Reply #211 on:** August 11, 2009, 02:48:54 PM

I want to go see it, but...I don't know if it'd be worth it. Poor CG doesn't really bother me, I just have no working knowledge of the G.I. Joe universe at all. Does that matter, or is this one of those "reinventions" for people who've never watched the cartoon?

Yes, it's a reinvention. There's many many things that are completely different from how they were originally. The plot seems very questionable from time to time, as well.

Quickman · **Reply #213 on:** August 12, 2009, 05:29:27 AM

I may actually see it just for Eccelston.

Pyro · **Reply #214 on:** August 13, 2009, 05:42:24 AM

Christopher Eccelston wasn't bad in the film, reminded his performance in the "Gone in 60 Minutes" remake.

As for the movie, in terms of an action movie with limited characterization and optimum explosions, was excellent and worthy of multiple viewings (come the home release) if you want to shut your brain off and enjoy the ride. That is more than I can say for the 2 1/2 hour mindrape that was Revenge of the Fallen.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #215 on:** August 16, 2009, 04:24:10 PM

Hey, I was never really a fan of the cartoon, and I walked out of this movie satisfied at the summer blockbusturian film that it was. As a few people have already said, it's definitely better than Transformers 2.

Acid · **Reply #216 on:** August 20, 2009, 10:21:04 PM

WHY DID NOBODY TELL ME ABOUT THIS??

Seems to be not real. Still looking cool.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #217 on:** August 20, 2009, 10:33:45 PM

I don't think that's real, but I did hear that they are possibly making a new He-Man movie in 2011.

The Drunken Dishwasher · **Reply #218 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:15:37 AM

Um, after that video, there is a Thundercats trailer, please, PLEASE tell me that's real.

edit: NM, it's fake, good thing I recognized scenes from Troy...and that horrid Garfield movie

Phi · **Reply #219 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:35:18 AM

A Thundercats movie would be awesome.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #220 on:** August 21, 2009, 06:59:17 AM

A live action Thundercats movie? No it wouldn't. The ONLY, ONLY good that would come out of a live-action Thundercats movie, and the ONLY reason I want one, is because they would hopefully make a perfect movie prop Sword of Omens, which I would buy instantly.

Went to see the Star Trek movie in my local Cinema 5. Was pretty meh.

Afro-Shroom · **Reply #222 on:** August 23, 2009, 06:01:47 AM

Saw Inglorious Bastards a few days ago, The film went in a totally direction then I thought it would.

Protoman Blues · **Reply #223 on:** August 23, 2009, 06:27:29 AM

Saw Inglorious Basterds tonight. Lots of Nazi's killed. I liked it a lot.
