looks pretty good surprisingly

by DJ Soma on Jan 8, 2010 12:55 PM EST reply actions  

agreed

it’s an action movie after all, the acting doesn’t have to be superb. I think it’s looking great (although it’s only a trailer), but I’m also surprised so far. Let’s see how it goes with the end result.

I’m not a big action movie fan, but for what it is, the trailer is surprisingly good.

It looked good……right up the the parachuting tank shooting down the F-15.

I thought that was awesome, I was indifferent, but this trailer made me want to see this.

still surprised by how pudgy he’s looking in this. woulda figured the studio would want him closer to fighting shape.

I'm sorry

But that looks god awful. Direct to VHS or SyFy Channel stuff right there.

On the Internet, all movie trailers look like god awful direct to video shit. This is what I have learned.

by Polyh3dron on Jan 8, 2010 1:25 PM EST via mobile up reply actions  

It's not the the quality of the video.

It’s the garbage content. Fighting a jet with a Parachuting Tank? Seriously? Seriously? SERIOUSLY? Dumb fun is okay, but this is ridiculous.

I mean

The A-Team was always sort of dumb. The shot all those bullets and could only hit the ground at dudes’ feet?

Yes, it was dumb.

This is still horse shit though. Should have never been remade IMHO.

Dude, the original A-Team show flipped a car on its ass EVERY EPISODE. How could this movie be made without throwing in some preposterous stunts?

It should have never been remade. I’m fine with re-runs and the like.

Rampage is playing...Rampage?

I understand not wanting to completely copy Mr. T but from the admittedly small sample size there it was exactly how Rampage talks and acts in real life.

Giving Shogun his props. I had the fight 48-47 Machida but Shogun put up a monumental performance and I am honored to have seen it in person.

I said thats exactly how Rampage talks and acts in real life. Quinton Jackson is a lot different but Mr. T <> Rampage is the point Im making.

or at least I don’t think it is, it sounds an awful lot like the guy they always use for movie trailers, man I want his job, dude makes insane money for sitting in his basement studio and talking into a mic. Not sure how much, but I know it’s atleast in the 7 figure range.

this actually looks so bad it'll be good

like point break, red dawn, starship troopers that kind of awesomely bad

by milk72 on Jan 8, 2010 2:13 PM EST reply actions  

speaking of

starship troopers,
i saw that in theatres in grade 7 and i thought it was the sweetest movie of all time. Then watching it a few years ago it is indeed awful.

by bluejitz on Jan 8, 2010 2:15 PM EST up reply actions  

yeah

but any action movie that we have seen years ago will appear awful to us today (with a few exceptions). action movies have a way of always upgrading themselves, so anything kind of old appears boring since we get spoiled with the new style movies. Even the original Matrix, which I thought was awesome when it came out, I tried watching it again the other day and it wasn’t very good in retrospect.

This is worse than that. It looks to bad to be so bad that it will be good.

I dislike Matt Hughes. Shogun beat him like a dirty horse.

by MonkeyCHops on Jan 8, 2010 2:28 PM EST up reply actions  

I agree.
ONE, A-Team was far from the GREATEST television program ever made. So I have no expectations whatsoever. I doubt I’ll see this in the theaters.

TWO . . . Starship Troopers IS THE GREATEST film ever because it was so flawed but the CG effects (IL&M) were great. Not to mention . . .

woah woah woah

Im abit of a student of film. Point Break was not “So bad it was good.” Point Break was good on its own merits and Red Dawn was a pretty ambitious flick. Point Break had some really stellar cinematography IMO, one of the greatest foot chases of all time, a really solid directorial effort by K Bigelow or however you spell her name, andit overcame one of the ugliest action movie chicks of all time.

he was injured. injured bad.

Kathryn Bigelow is a cool director, but Keanu’s acting had a long way to go back in the day. It was pretty godawful.

Makes you appreciate how hard he’s had to work to become mediocre.

best part about Point Break

is that Keanu’s character in the Replacements has the same exact backstory as Johnny Utah.

Johnny Utah – The former Ohio State QB who blew out his knee in the national championship game

by milk72 on Jan 8, 2010 3:37 PM EST up reply actions  

of course it is its ridiculously entertaining but trruthfully it is a very bad movie,

its flaws make it awesome though like the cheesy dialogue, terrible acting, and of course neil patrick harris and the immortal character of johnny rico who i believe if we threw in the octagon could be the champion of every single weight class at the same time

Surprising

Its clearly obvious that the movie is of lower tier quality, with it being another lame MMP version of an old, tired TV Series and Rampages limited acting skills. Shocking to see Liam Neeson, who is an accomplished actor of considerable talent and character as well as an Oscar Nominee. I guess they all get desperate these days and get to the “Samuel L Jackson” level of “Ain’t never seen a 20 mil movie I didn’t like”!.

by SimplePsych on Jan 8, 2010 3:18 PM EST reply actions  

Liam Neeson was just in the movie Taken, which is absolutely awful. The parts must be drying up for him.

The way they can sell this is to play up the kitsch factor, like snakes on a plane. CGI looks pretty mediocre by the looks of it (though sometimes is polished up by release date), but I’m sure it’ll sell tickets

As for shooting down planes in parachuting tanks…well, all I can say is “Live Free or Die Hard”… jumping onto the wing of a jet, anyone?

Rampage opposite Qui-Gon and the dude from Hangover? AWESOME!

Looks’ horrible as predicted, I’m surprised there’s so many “BIG” name actors in this film, and some that I actually enjoy.
