RutgersJetFan Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Would have cosigned on Cocktail a year ago, but it's hard to watch anything with Cruise now after seeing Going Clear. I'd say both Matrix sequels. I thought they were great. If you watch the Animatrix it gives those movies a lot more context, particularly the ending of the third one.

drdetroit Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 The second Matrix movie is actually very underrated. The third matrix movie was a dumpster fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Animatrix and it still has its security sticker covering the edges. i cant bring myself to watch it. I'll go with both Grown Ups movies. I knew going in they would be stupid and I got my moneys worth and enjoyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if he sits in that stupid gyrosphere while yelling at the minions to go find him another girlfriend he can abuse. Jason Lee's ex penned an essay this week about them. Nothing surprising but more horrific sh*t. Apparently Jenna Elfman is now a full blown lunatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 So many: Apocalypto - I think it's caught on now? Both Grindhouse movies - Gangs of New York Any Godzilla movie Legion Reign of Fire Zodiac - A classic and nothing less Elysium Lock, Stock, and 2 Smoking Barrels The Sleepy Hollow movie with Depp and Ricci Don't Be Afraid of the Dark remake Congo Mothman Prophecies Fallen The Relic Mimic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually really great if you're an animation fan. There are 2-3 segments of it which I'd rank pretty high on the all-time list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayJoe12 Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 Gang of New York and Lock Stock too. What a nutbar. Liked the former, loved the latter. I've heard a lot of people complain about GONY, but I didn't think enough people knew Lock Stock in order to dislike it. Such a great movie; Vinnie Jones is one of the few actors who I have no doubt would actually put someone in a hospital if you pissed him off.

Not sure I've seen them all, but I like all of them except the one that was supposed to be a fairy tale or whatever. Signs is probably my favorite. "It's behind..." come on, that sh*t was awesome. I actually love Unbreakable too. I figured out Sixth Sense about an hour or so before the rest of the theatre, so meh. I also thought the Village was great... too many people bitched about it not being scary. Idiots. It was marketed as horror, but shouldn't have been. It had nothing to do with horror... it was a social commentary, and used symbolism and color theory brilliantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity28 Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Okay, here's one out of left field... The Return of Master Killer. It's a Gordon Liu film, quite possibly my favorite kung fu movie of all time, and it's basically Liu returning to play a con-man who impersonates San Te (Liu's character from Master Killer). It's part comedy, and brilliantly done. He learns kung fu through doing work around the Shaolin temple. Possible inspiration for Karate Kid, also there's a great scaffolding fight scene (with bamboo and reeds) that Jet Li re-creates in Romeo Must Die with metal scaffolds and zip-ties. Also in this vein, Kung Fu Hustle is a ******* great movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I distinctly remember being very pissed off at making me sit through The Village. But he did pull off the Happening, and by pulled off I mean he made the greatest unintentionally funny movie ever.

Also not a box office smash: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=gangsofnewyork.htm Oscars: Zero It's cool THO, The Matrix Reloaded definitely doesn't get it's due and didn't make enough money.

Again. Nominated. Not won. And $77 million = not a lot of money. Right. It's cool THO, The Matrix Reloaded definitely doesn't get it's due and didn't make enough money. Just not enough people saw the Animatrix to like reeeeeeally get it. Donnie, you're out of your element. The Matrix sequels were wholly successful at the box office because of anticipation drawn up from the original, but were pretty much the talk of the world because of the backlash. People were pissed, and you're either too young to remember this or you have since smoked yourself stupid. Again, you are a nutbar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenorGato Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Gangs of NY: ~$193 million and change worldwide gross on a 100 million dollar budget Matrix Reloaded: nearly $750 million on a $150 million dollar budget Edit for edit: I understand the context of including the Matrix sequels here, but to say that Gangs made alot of money doesn't fly. $77 million was a disappointment for the domestic gross, as it should have been for a 100 million dollar Scorsese film. It's since hit the rounds as a popular movie to call overrated for internet reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
