I could film a movie about my ball sack and put "Directed by" in front of it, and I would still be less of a hack director than McG or Rob Cohen. And I couldn't even be a hack cuz I was "having a go at it" instead of just sitting on my ass and writing about it.
Ok. I regret what I said. Danny Boyle isn't a cocksucker. He just made a movie. I don't think he expected to get all the attention that he did. I didn't like Slumdog. But I'm sure Danny is a nice guy. (shouldnt have commented while drinking...)
Harry Potter movies aren't the most impressive things I've seen, but compared to Transformers 2? The first movie sucked. The second movie will suck. Michael Bay movies suck. How do people get suckered into this? I hate Shia. I question seeing any movie he is in. I even wondered about Indy 4 and I now wish I had gone with my gut instinct and not watched that travesty.
Armageddon didn't hold up 10-15 minutes after watching it. Trash. Big and loud trash.
Optimus Prime does need the faceplate. He looks too fun and family friendly without it. I can't take him seriously. Transformers 2 might make a good IMAX flik. But if it ain't big, the flaws will shine.
As far as the prequels go, Star Trek destroys SW: Episodes I and II. But if we are going based on weapons, Jedi's would rape and pillage the Star Trek crew. Phasers suck.
I am intrigued. Huge Adam Jones/Tool fan. However I do not see any aesthetic influences.
