Thanks for the warning MP,

Thanks for the heads up, MP.

I stay away from the theaters. I waste my cash on videos, get more movies for less. And geez I got some edit room floor grubbers. Try some of these (NOT!):

Terror Toons
The Creeping Flesh
Doll Man
Demonic Toyz
Doll Man vs Demonic Toyz
Battle at the End of the Galaxy
Buckaroo Banzai - Across the Eighth Dimension (funky music, though)
Blood Sucking Vampires
all the C.H.U.D. movies (like they might get better wacko.gif )

All this from a guy who thinks Ace Ventura deserves a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame... laugh.gif

Worst movie mistake ever? Giving Titanic an Academy Award.

Also high ranking would be the sequels to The Blues Brothers and Slap Shot, and the live action Tarzan movie of a few years ago.
CASTOR
I LOVE CADDYSHACK! A LOT
but making a second one was the biggest mistake in the movie biz.
Space Moose has the other one, blues brothers 2, wow was that crap!

The C.H.U.D. movies and a lot of the B Genre movies are being made for those who like those types of movies. You might not think spending money on it is a good idea but those who like them will pick them up in a flash.

I would have to say the biggest movie mistake was Dude Where's My Car.

Aw, BC how could you say that about DWMC?
I thought that was so funny, especially the scene
with the tattoos! SWEET!
(but then I'm easily amused) laugh.gif
schadeaux
No offense ment to the CHUDsters, BC. I've rented all of them, some two or three times, and Bud the CHUD is still one of my favorite characters (even had his own song!).

I watched "Blair With II " the book of shadows last night .

My advice is don't bother dry.gif
Tommy
Blair with two what? tongue.gif only kidding kismit biggrin.gif I've seen it too and agree, it's not worth watching. dry.gif
racerette
Thanks guys,,,,I was planning on renting that one too at some point but have always been iffy on it! Now I don't think I will!! tongue.gif
Kismit
lol Tommy , Uni is obviously making you cleverer biggrin.gif

After all that talk about the Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2, I thought I would review it listening to the Director's Commentary on the DVD (I got both movies and all three games for 4 dollars less than what the first movie was going for at the time - really I got the first movie for a deal and some nice coasters)

Joe Berlinger (the director) basically comes out and says that he wrote the script to be completly different and it was intended to have a lot of irony and satire and should have made us aware of the hype that we were exposed to with the first one. Well Mr. Berlinger, you failed.

What we are left with is 90 minutes of studio scholck. Berlinger does recgonize that some of what is in there is over the top, but since he had such lofty goals for the movie in the first place and no good plan to implement them, it doesn't really matter.

He likes to talk a lot about his previous projects and how he wanted to make this as close to those as possible. As 999 out of a thousand people wouldn't even know a Berlinger film if you show it to them, this was a terrible idea. But they are really good, just ask him.

Best things to come out of this film? First, there is the orgy scene (Erica is a real cutie) second is "The Secret of Esrever" that you can find on the DVD (possibly on the VHS) and third (for all of us Canadians out there) you can spot Moosehead beer throughout most of the movie. That was never mentioned in the commentary, but was easily the biggest factor in getting me to sit through the entire movie again.

All in all, rent it if you have the 99 cents to spare. But only to say that you have watched it.

Good Lord. Movies cost $15 in Canada?

bigsteff
signs starring mel gibson

it was PANTS....
Althalus
i like the way that the adverts for the DVD say that it is a film filled with suspence and exitement.

suspence - -yes

exitement - -where?
racerette
Yes, a movie is 15 dollars here. Needless to say I don't go out to see many because I'd be broke. If I want popcorn and drink it's another $10. Expensive! Renting is cheaper at $7!!!!!!!

biggrin.gif
Magikman
Can't say as I blame ya, darling, I don't think I'd ever pay $15 to see a movie, either. tongue.gif Your snack prices are similar to ours, though. ohmy.gif Rentals here run just under $4.00, that includes the DVD versions, which are so much better than the tapes. smile.gif
racerette
I know Magik...I only go and see a movie if I hear that it's a super spectacular ,amazing, nothing ever like it seen before you have to go!! kinda movie....or if my date is paying biggrin.gif
but seriously..just under 4 dollars to rent?? i don't know what I could buy here for $4.00 Maybe a pop? A couple of chocolate bars?? WOW, I'm moving. biggrin.gif
Bizarro
i really liked signs.... but im not overly concerned with every aspect of a story. i just watch movies to be entertained smile.gif
Space Moose
Just a quick note for Magikman and racerette, you are talking in different currencies. Once you apply the exchange rate, the prices are similar.

However, if you are lucky enough to live in a test market like me, you can see any new movie for $8.00 Canadian or about $5.00 USD. The catch is that there are no reduced prices for students, children or seniors.

Althalus
we pay about £5 to see a film and then its another £5 for the food each. although it can vary.
bigsteff
yes it's a fact here in the uk,if you want to go to the cinema to watch a movie,

you have to see your bank manager for a loan laugh.gif
emmy
LOL @ Big steff

I'd agree with you about Signs, there is basically no storyline and what a stupid ending,

Castaway starring Tom Hanks is really boring with no plot aswell.

wolfsinger
Yeah, there r a lot of crap movies out there.....
What surprises me the most is that good producers and directors even bother to make the movie even if there is no plot and is probably more bad for you than drugs!!(Drugs can kill you slowly, but those long and boring movies with no plot kill you even slower....Pure torture)
