Green Hornet would have been good if they could figure out the freaking tone of the movie.Marter said:The Green Hornet? Red Riding Hood? Ghost Rider? Eragorn? Catwoman?
Awful, awful movies, all of them. Yes, worse than the Transformers flicks, in my opinion.
Or if Seth Rogan wasn't in the lead. That would've helped, too.Dangit2019 said:Green Hornet would have been good if they could figure out the freaking tone of the movie.
"60s nostalgia? Modern day comedy? Serious superhero movie? Screw it, we'll just make it up as we go!"
It was buddy film, two friends finding friendship, having adventures, fighting, making up. Watch it like this and it's pretty enjoyable.Dangit2019 said:Green Hornet would have been good if they could figure out the freaking tone of the movie.Marter said:The Green Hornet? Red Riding Hood?

Hell yeah! A story about a Civil War veteran that gets transported to Mars and gets caught up in a war between factions of aliens and humans; with 250 million dollars in budget and the guy who wrote and directed Finding Nemo and WALL-E at the helm? You seriously couldn't make that even remotely interesting?! Why?!Casual Shinji said:John Carter
The most boring, uneventful fantasy movie ever. I'd take Transformers and Sucker Punch over JC in a heart beat. They were dogshit, but atleast they were memorable dogshit. I can look back at those movies and think, "God, that was fucking terrible."
John Carter is absolutely nothing happening for 2 and a half hours, with an art direction that seems to come straight out of Xena: Warrior Princess. It made Avatar look like Ben-Hur.
250 billion dollars well spent.
Wow, you have it pretty good then.cormacdffy said:Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. In all my life, I have yet to see a worse film.
Beat me to it. Avatar was the second movie I ever thought was a complete waste of money to see in theaters (The Cave being the first). It's not the worst movie ever made, but it was worth about as much as a direct-to-DVD movie.wookiee777 said:Alright, I'll bite. Avatar. The James Cameron one, not the Shamalaayaldjflkajdlajfdasfjl;kj one.
Both times I've seen it, I came away thinking, "God practical real effects looked so good in the 80's. I wish we would return to those days and stop relying on computers that make EVERYTHING look synthetic, fake, and cartoony". I would far rather have a cheesy guy-in-rubber-suit movie than one where the monster is just some digital effect. At least it would be real, made by artists who work with their hands.
Also the story sucked and saying the movie was about the "experience" is a stupid excuse. Every movie is an experience, Avatar is a bad one.
