Cool! Thanks for the info! I liked "Hero", so I look forward to it. I'm glad Yimou is doing another martial arts style epic.

Any light sabre stuff always gets ya excited if your a fan of Star Wars. However, all glimpses and trailers for Ep.1 and Ep.2 were all really cool. It was the final product that still failed to deliver unfortunately. Well, fail to deliver for me and some others. I know there are some fans out...

I read the first Dune book back in college. Enjoyed it very much. Personally, I like the Lynch "Dune" movie much better than the made for tv mini-series Dune. I haven't seen the 2nd mini-series yet...but it looked like they spent a tad more money on it (from clips I've seen). I may rent it to...

Battle Angel is a pretty cool Anime. But I guess, if you're an anime hater, it won't matter how good it is. :( But, I remember it well because it was one of the very very few animation things I've watched where I got a lump in my throat during a certain story point. Those of you who have seen...

Who's Mark Ferguson? Hypersmurf, were you part of the stunt team on LotR? Your reply has so little info. Anyways KaiLord, I agree about it being nice to see someone break Hollywood storytelling conventions. For example: set up a villian's vow to destroy.....show a hero face off with that...

The problem with "Willow" is ....well, its Willow. That character has nothing admirable about it. Practically little character growth. Now, if the movie centered more around Madmartigan, then I think it would've been much better. And who could resist Sorsha? She was a cool character too...

Yes, there is that too. I understand the contraints of the theatrical version. Some things needed to be edited out for time. But if you have to edit out the confrontation between the Witchking and Gandalf, then why leave in the dialogue where the Witchking says, "I will break him"? Odd. By...

The reason why I thought that fight was disappointing wasn't because they didn't follow the book. It wasn't because of when which actions happened and so on. For me, its how it was the acting and the way it was shot. Kind of stale and un-majestic. I guess all the imagination and mental energy...

Yeah, that's a cool scene. A few favorites of mine are: --Blackhawk Down : From the airstrip to downtown Bakara market deployment scene. --Heat: So many in this movie actually. Pacino talking to Deniro in cafe over coffee, the downtown shoot out, Pacino yelling "Cuz she's got a GREAT @$$! And...

This pre-production artwork doesn't particularly get me drooling. I mean, how does it really differ from design work from the actual anime? I'm more anxious in seeing the stills or moving images of actual live-action shots. Not coming out till 2010?!? That seems sillly. You sure about that...

For me, its all about the setting really. How the races are written, their history, their cultural tendancies, etc. For me, at least for typical D&D races.....I don't like introducing any tech above what's already in the book. I don't even like some of the early early forays into gun...

There is something about the "Black Company" books that I don't like. Its the covers! Man, I feel sorry for Cook. His publisher doesnt' seem to think he's worth finding a good artist for. Okay, one or two covers are pretty cool. But most of them....whew......geez louise......

Well, even I would settle on a painful trip to the dentist than watch "Batman & Robin". At least my teeth would be cleaned. Something would be accomplished. With "Batman & Robin"...there is only pain and despair. Speaking of which.....I hate to judge a movie based off just a few pics and a...

I personally use a Cable connection. I haven't seen the difference between the other types of broadcasts. But I mostly watch DVDs anyways. And I'm not much of a sports event watcher....which seems to be the only thing I've noticed that is broadcast in HD. Y'know....I can't really offer much...

Oh, by no means did I think 'cartoony' is bad. I was just kinda getting this impression that the werewolf stood out in comparison to the other monsters because of its more exaggerated features. Now....this is watching really quick cuts from a trailer. May make more sense in the context of the...

Seems a tad cartoony. Especially the werewolf...but heck, I'm there. I got somewhat like a "LXG" vibe from it. So it could either be substandard like "LXG" or do what "LXG" couldn't. Be more entertaining that is. :)

Holey Moley! I forgot about another crappy movie that should've been on my list! The Musketeer OMG.....I was so ill when I watched this.

OMG....you are so right. I can't believe I didn't put this down. I guess I was trying to erase the whole experience from my head. Gee...thanks for reminding me Lurker....now I'm going to have nightmares tonight.... (j/k :D) Particle_Man wrote: OMG...another one I forgot about. "The...

Actually, I found Zahn's book to be kinda stale and unimaginative. I would hope that if they did indeed to Episodes 7-9, it wouldn't be based off Zahn's books. However, if I had to choose between Zahn's writing and Lucas writing....I'd pick Zahn of course! :) But maybe having someone like...

True, like ...you should never do a "Pac-Man" movie or a "Burger Time" movie. But in my opinion...."Resident Evil" could've been a cool movie if the right talent had made the film. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. Doesn't mean it should've been made though. I guess it depends on your view of...
