I just don't get how Liefeld is still in the industry. Yes he gave us Deadpool, but that character only became famous after more talented people got a hold of him, but his work as a total is unbelievably craptastic. What's more infuriating is him saying that all of the guys behind Image Comics were basically the same Okay artists, but that they weren't great at any one thing and they just got lucky, which is SO insulting to fantastic artists like Jim Lee and Todd McFarlane who's art was either great to begin with or has improved over the years.

Wow what a rousing title to sell the movie on. You think it will be on upcoming trailers?

Yeah the whole movie is on youtube. It takes real balls to open you movie with the a plot point BLAMING the people of United 93 for the plane crashing while also making a World Trade Center window washer joke, for no reason whatsoever. Also I would love it if they could get Dave Foley for this episode just so he could share his experience working on this film, including his full frontal nude scene. And knowing how Boll reacts to his critics, June, Jason, and Paul will be depicted in his next movie as retarded monsters or some shit.

Holy shit this movie really needs to be done. Having just fast forwarded through this on youtube, this movie is so close to the game as an adaptation it's insane. And by close I mean devoid of plot, sense, and understandable characters. And there is a scene where Verne Troyer is raped by a room full of monkeys, seriously.

Already a huge thread on this one.

They could do a special writer's edition of the episode. He could play it up as a snooty screenwriter who defends this movie as if it was Citizen Kane.

Now my fingers are crossed that they will cover the horrible sequel after talking about this movie.

I'm watching this now and holy shit does it seem to be overrated. Nothing really crazy in it outside of the wigs that were bought from Cage,Pacino, & Co. Wig Palace. The movie itself seems confused about what it is and the numerous layers of who is conning who comes off more as confusing than anything. It is also seems to be another one of those movies that was placed in the Best Musical/Comedy category at the Golden Globes solely because they didn't have room in the Best Drama category. The characters outside of Bale are so dysfunctional, and not in a good way: Amy Adams with changing accents, Bradley Cooper coming off as a wild FBI agent who out of nowhere starts doing coke before going into a case with everyone, and Jennifer Lawrence with her batshit coo-coo performance as a Kathy Bates from Misery. I think this movie got so much praise because of who was involved and the movies that they had previously done together, and critics couldn't look past that to see the OK film that was in front of them.

What's more shocking is that this didn't become a film franchise, especially with how many novels there are in the Parker series. Though now the series is finding a second life as graphic novel adaptations written by Darwyn Cooke.

The problem with this is that there have been so many attempts already to adapt Parker for the big screen in the hopes of creating a franchise. I thought Mel Gibson did pretty well in Payback as he could play a grisled criminal with no qualms about hurting people to get what he was owed. Statham just didn't sit right in the character and the fact that for some reason they tease a love story between him and JLo even though we the audience know nothing is going to happen due to him being married or engaged or whatever to Nolte's daughter, is mind boggling.

This movie seemed to have all the right parts to make at least a serviceable popcorn flick: the origin story of Wolverine, a black ops team of either villains or antiheroes who had not been shown yet in a Marvel film, and good actors playing most of the roles. Yet with all of that we got THIS. Liev Schreiber was totally miscast as Sabertooth who to me was always just a brute and more animalistic than Wolverine, not a pretty well spoken guy who has muttonchop sideburns and looks a little grisly. I think he would have been better suited as Stryker (though Danny Huston does a good job for his part), and then have Kevin Durand who played Blob as Sabertooth if they couldn't get Tyler Mane again. Yet the biggest kick to the balls in this movie was Deadpool. Ryan Reynolds is a smart pick for the character as he can pop off and be a smart ass, but to have him keep his pretty boy looks when the character he is playing is a cancer victim with horrible scars covering his whole body is just preposterous. They try to buy it back by having his surgical scars at the end sorta resemble his mask, but they cover his mouth so he can't talk, mind you Deadpool is the MERC WITH THE MOUTH! If they ever make the Deadpool movie they really just need to have a stunt actor like Doug Jones wear the costume and have Nolan North do the voice, would save a lot of fanboy hate and could work for a movie based on the character.

It's a case of it being a TRUE alternate ending that got changed for whatever reason. Nowadays when they mention an alternate ending, it's some minute change or add on that added nothing new to the film, or was completely batshit insane like the propeller plane alternate ending to Independance Day (Youtube it if you haven't seen that clusterfuck). This would have been a very interesting thing to watch and would have placated fans of the book with a lot of nods to the source material, but they changed it for being too dark or whatever. It reminds me of the alternate ending to the Paul Walker horror flick Joy Ride. That DVD had an alternate ending which was a 29 minutes long and really was an alternate take on the film and made it worth watching.

Apparently they were going to get into some shit in the original, longer ending. Rather than Pitt and the one handed soldier going to the CDC type place after the plane crash, they are in Russia and get forcibly drafted into fighting the zombies there while his family is removed from the ship. It then goes along with some of the stuff in the movie where they find out severe cold dramatically slows down the zombies, making them much more manageable to combat. It is sometime later that he gets a hold of a sat phone and is able to get into contact with his family who are in a government camp in the south. He then finds out that his wife has shacked up with the helicopter pilot who rescued them in the beginning of the film, who is basically now extorting sex out of her for protection for the family within the camp. Then he goes on a long journey back to the US to get his family back after the pilot basically tells him to forget his family. This was supposed to be the original ending and was basically cut due to being too dark and a lot longer and more expensive to film and it's why they had cast Matthew Fox as the pilot but he has one line in the final cut of the film.

I watched the behind the scenes on that one stunt and it was amazing what they were willing to do to get that shot, Idris included. They basically had a small scaffold jut out over that cliff and had him on a harness and flung him out there.

I think Grown Ups 2 will win picture and maybe actor, the Smiths seem like a lot otherwise for the acting categories. 43 will win for director since the Razzies like to go for either kitchy wins or the usual grudges against actors like Lohan, Sandler, and Stallone, which is why Perry will likely win the actress award.

Yeah I believe there was a thread already made for this.

I have to believe that it was someone trolling in the reviews with that one.

Yeah he also had like killer snowballs to help kill people. These movies were so much better comedies than this movie could ever hope to be.

Yeah it's good to see him having a mini resurgence in his career as he was a good actor to play either the menacing psycho or over the top crazy guy.

Considering that the Jack Frost horror movie is completely on youtube, this needs to be done on the show. What's more confusing is that this movie came out a year before Keaton's film and stars a pre-American Pie Shannon Elizabeth (she was the snowman rape victim). This movie is completely nuts and deserves a Jason freakout. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mM-_eSWbI2A

I unironically love this movie. It is a so bad it's good film with the costumes and the cheesy sci-fi overtone, but it works for a 90s monster movie. It's funny watching how they promoted this movie as starring Mark Hamill going as far to put him on the DVD cover as the person in the Guyver suit, when he is actually a smaller part. The sequel is interesting in that it completely disregards the love story of the original movie within the first 5 minutes.

To quote Elitist Prick: This movie would be a fantastic diversion from the usual HDTGM films as it currently holds a 75% RT score and has become one of the most polarizing movies of the last year with its over the top depiction of life as a commodities trader. Leonardo DiCaprio gives one of the best performances of his career as the drugged out Jordan Belfort in the same vein as Ray Liotta in Goodfellas and mixtures of De Niro and Pesci in Casino. There is enough WTF and did they really just do that to make a great 90 minute episode, especially with the breaking of the fourth wall that DiCaprio does by telling the audience they don't understand what the fuck is happening but to just go along, enjoy the ride and screw you if you don't like what he's doing.

After reading the book, I don't know what else they could have cut since the book is followed pretty closely. The only point so far that it has diverted was when Jordan Belfort takes the settlement with the SEC and was banned from running a firm, in real life he actually did walk away but oversaw some stuff behind the scenes rather than becoming uber defiant and staying in his position. All of the conversations about midgets, the different types of hookers, the goldfish scene, and others are basically word for word from the book, and just the tip of the iceberg about how insane Stratton Oakmont was.

Nice reference to THAT show.
