Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

July 11th, 2008

I waited quite a while to write this review, and for good reason. There was alot of knee-jerk reactionary hate directed towards Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (KotCS) when it was first released; reviews claiming their childhoods had been ‘molested’ or internet posters renaming the film with titles such as ‘Indiana Jones Episode 4: The Phantom Skull’ were everywhere, and the fanboy effect was quickly in full swing. Thus, despite having quite a few things I wanted to say about KotCS, I waited for some time to pass in order to present a non-reactionary, objective opinion.

This movie is terrible. I mean, wholly and truly awful.

New Darknight Trailer

July 7th, 2008

Another Dark Knight Trailer. Unfortunately I can’t embed it in the page so here’s a link. Seriously I’m starting to feel like I’ve seen all of the cool parts of this movie.

Watched “Wanted” over the weekend. It was no Ultraviolet, aka Ultra-garbage, but it was far from good. Right out of the gate they have this stupid car chase with a Viper that can’t outrun a fucking delivery truck. Maybe I looked away from the screen and missed the stack of nitrous in the cargo hold. Another issue I had was that the whole curving bullets thing just wasn’t that cool. Instead of curving bullets their super power should have been “bullet time”, that would have kicked mad ass! Speaking of bullet time there’s actually a Max Payne movie coming out. Glad to see they kept that hack Boll away from it. I won’t say that I hated Wanted but there were just too many cheese ball moments that kept me from enjoying it. They should have went with the actual story from the comic which is far superior to the storyline they used.
Oh well, Jolie looked hot as always. Best line in the film -

Morgan Freeman - “Shoot that muthafucka!”

L8!
