It depends on the investment Legendary wants to make (my understanding is they paid for 70% of the movie, and Warners investment is fairly modest). Tintin didn't do great domestically, but it was a hit worldwide, where it was really targeted, and I believe there's going to be a sequel of that. If the movie doesn't

Victor Enrich looks like he could be concept designer for Chris Nolan's next head trip adventure.

That statement was too passive aggressive to be an apology. More like, "You won, you happy? Now show me the tolerance I refuse to show you."

I'm really surprised Dustin Lance Black is completely against the idea of a boycott. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing, but it's just difficult for me personally to support a movie that is likely to profit a homophobe, regardless of whether or not we should be reaching out to the other side in the

Just saw the Friday numbers: Not good. Expected to come in #3 behind GR2 (!) and Despicable Me 2. Doing better overseas, and I expect it'll have better word of mouth than GR2 which (I hope) is a one weekend and done thing. But it's clear that as of now, it hasn't expanded its base of interest beyond the fanboy,

That movie still gives me the creeps.

If the movie is a hit, it will help his book sales. That's a way he can still profit on the movie, even if he didn't get profit points (which I doubt).

Before I put in my two cents, full disclosure: I've never read Ender's Game, and after seeing the trailer, probably would've skipped it in the theaters. Most likely, if I were to see it, it would've been either a $1 Redbox rental or borrowing it for free from the library at some point. It just didn't seem interesting

I really liked this movie, but the ending was terrible and unnecessary. The point had been made beforehand. The awful special effects didn't help, either.

Right. Matrix Reloaded and Revolutions are two of the worst sequels in the history of movies. The Wachowski Bros. had no idea what to do with a character once they made him into a god in the first one.

If you mean Stellan Skarsgaard's sudden "Thank God I put in a self destruct button" line that suddenly negated the entire battle sequence, then, yeah. Bad ending.

I'm with you. I wouldn't say I sobbed, but I thought the finale was hellaciously exciting. I can see how people who've only watched the movie once can say it feels rushed and sloppy, but when I saw it a second and third time, the whole thing didn't feel so overwhelming to the senses, and it took on a beautiful sense

I didn't mind the ending so much, but it wasn't as interesting as the rest of the movie. Ir0nically, I recall a lot of people saying the same about the 28 Days Later finale.

I'm going to agree that Cloverfield is the outlier here. I know it's your list, but it seems like Beast from 20,000 Fathoms and Dragonslayer would've been better picks.

Geez...this was an awful movie. I saw it for free on cable and wanted my money back. Poor Ray Bradbury. Other than Truffaut's Fahrenheit 451, they almost never get his stories right.

Don't forget the air headed by thoroughly enjoyable 2010, or the now iconic Star Chamber. You used to be able to count on Hyams to turn out a good no brainer B movie, but ever since this movie and End of Days, he's been practically non existent.

Yeah, I agree with you. STV was just fine, and probably my second favorite Trek after Khan. I even liked the "row, row, row your boat, life is but a dream" sing a long at the end. It was just the kind of goofy populist philosophizing that Gene Roddenberry would've loved. Voyage Home gets a lot of love, but, man, that

maybe my memory is faulty but didn't Tintin handle the racial politics by just avoiding then altogether? Maybe that's really the only answer for old fashioned adventure reboots.

And the similarities between Matrix and They Live.

All these Avatar suits prove only one thing: Too many people are watching Ferngully and Dances With Wolves.
