Cube was pretty weird/interesting, its sequels got kinda dumb though.

And Terminator 2 isn't a patch on the first, but is still good entertainment. T3 was suprisingly good - Arnie powerbombs her into the toilet!!111 Arnie gets driven through buildings!!!!1111

The remote control stuff was stupid, though.

I agree with every word I didn't delete from the above two posts.

T1 > T2 > T3 > any bullshit modern 'action' film.

T3:
Good:
-Woo! More Termanatorz!
-Didn't submit to any stupid retconning (like finding bits of old Terminators strewn around the steelmill from the end of T2). I like the idea of inevitability and particularly that just because the characters in the previous film were convinced something would work didn't actually mean that it would.
-Beatiful ending

Bad:
-Plot to T2 recycled (except the ending)
-Doesn't slow down for even a second. Some of the best stuff in the first two films was just people talking.
-The T-X was a bit shit. "Hey, lets take the almost unstoppable one from last time and combine it with the structural weakness that got the original one beaten to shit!" You moron, Skynet.
-So, on the third attempt they still only send one back?

And that bit when they turn the power-magnet thing on and the T-X gets spread all over it? But their guns remain magically attached to their hands? IMPOSSIBLE!

And the old-terminators (=daleks) rolling about the place. Cool.

And I thought Arnie making the female robot eat his red hot pack of power was a bit...erm... yeah.

right.

BEST MOVIE EVER?
http://imdb.com/title/tt0486551/

It looks like The Quest, but instead of Van Damme and combat we get fat guys and beer. awesome.

Christ, it's those Broken Lizard wankers. Spare me, I could drink beer and watch a proper film instead of having my nectar abused by some second-rate 'comedians' that makes Owen Wilson look like Peter Sellers.

Watching Sandler with Nicholson, it really showed up just what a shit actor he is. As Q said, Jack is the man! Great bit where he smashes the car window with the golf club.

Sorry, but T3 lost me when they recycled the fantastic chase scene from T2 within the first 15 minutes of the movie. And someone should tell Arnie that he's not funny. The whole "Talk to the hand" bit was just pathetic.

Maybe you had to be drunk. I was, and I laughed when he tried the Elton John-esque sunglasses on. Looking back, it was rather self-parodic.

It's all right. Road Trip is better, but Euro Trip does have it's moments. It's def. worth a rental.

Azrael · **Posted:** Mon Jul 17, 2006 8:53 pm

cool, i'm renting it, then!

Azrael · **Posted:** Mon Jul 17, 2006 11:34 pm

hm, it was decent, worth the rent i guess.

there were joke opportunities they missed, and it pales in comparison to Road Trip (which rules), but it's worth watching if it's cheap.

Rent Harold & Kumar go to White Castle...if you enjoy those movies you might just love that one, that is if you haven't seen it already.

THANK YOU COME AGAIN!

Oops, I forgot about that. Yeah that stuff sucked. :( About as much as Eurotrip, in fact.
