Oxigen_Waste Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 mhm I know what you're saying. But it would just never work. Its too much a risk, and one they wouldn't be willing to take incase it did fail. Watership Down was, is and will be a masterpiece, on all accounts. Even though it's an animated kid's movie, it's probably one of the most depressing films ever made. And it is superb... so you see, Ashley, it can be done.
Ashley Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 But we're talking about Disney, not AVCO Embassy Pictures. It would be like Fisher Price doing "My First Machete."
Oxigen_Waste Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 But we're talking about Disney, not AVCO Embassy Pictures. It would be like Fisher Price doing "My First Machete." That's bullshit. What we were discussing was wether or not it could or should be done, wether by Disney or whoever else. And don't forget, the argument started with Happy Feet, and that is a Dreamworks movie. And don't forget that Disney are a bunch of scared faggots that shouldn't even be considered in this. And another thing, if Dreamworks releases kid's movies with sex content, why isn't possible for there to be a non-happy-ending?
Ashley Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 I honestly presumed we were talking about Disney, as in each example people have stated Pixar,hobz being the first.

McMad Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 The Bourne Ultimatum is pretty damn awesome, easily the best film I've seen all summer, not to say the rest are bad films, but clearly this one is of a much higher standard than the rest. A good 8/10, and now I'm gonna 'acquire' that funky song by Moby that always plays at the end of the Bourne films.
Daft Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 The Bourne Ultimatum I know everyone else is going to really like this but I was checking my watch half way through. The action sequences were great but the story was ultimately, I found, crap. 4/10
Paj! Posted August 17, 2007 Posted August 17, 2007 Bring It On:All Or Nothing Surprisingly good. (relatively) Hayden Patteniere (Heroes) gives a good performance, and the racism issues and sexual content as not expected, and it made it a bit more credible. Solange Knowles (Beyonces sister) gave a wooden, tough girl performance, but it was ok. It wasn't that funny for an advertised comedy, but I have to admit I laughed at "Oh look, it's Hip Hop barbie, and the Wu-Tang clan!". (You had to be there)
Oxigen_Waste Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 After the great critical acclaim that fell upon The Bourne Ultimatum, I felt compelled to watch the previous two movies, accompanied by Hellfire, wich I had never watched. Well then: The Bourne Identity + The Bourne Supremacy Very good espionage outings, with very clever action sequences and a nice story wich is, so far, underdeveloped (wich, I hope, will be properly developed in Ultimatum), but ultimately, effective in creating just the right atmosphere to allow the action to unfold engagingly. A good movie experience, whose flaw, I hope, will be colmated by the the third feature. As so, I cannot rate them properly until I see Ultimatum, seeing as these two movies work as a build up to the third one, at least from where I'm standing. Supremacy was, I thought, an upgrade over identity. Let us hope Ultimatum keeps that pattern going.
Ashley Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 Ten Things I Hate About You A nice teen flick. Was expecting more JGL and got lots of Heath Ledger but not bad anyway. 8
Slaggis Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 Bring It On:All Or Nothing Surprisingly good.

It wasn't that funny for an advertised comedy, but I have to admit I laughed at "Oh look, it's Hip Hop barbie, and the Wu-Tang clan!". (You had to be there) First one is a great no brainer movie, both for the comedy, and the short skirts.
welsh_gamer Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 Robin Hood : Prince of Thives. Never seen it before, and I loved it! It had eveything. So gonna buy it on DVD soon. 9/10
Demuwan Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 First one is a great no brainer movie, both for the comedy, and the short skirts. I personally would rather circumcise a donkey with my teeth than sit through that again, but hey each to their own:heh:
triforce_keeper Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 Bring It On was great, I LOVE it. Bring it on 2 was absolute shite. Bring It On 3 was hilarious. My kind of comedy.
Slaggis Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 I personally would rather circumcise a donkey with my teeth than sit through that again, but hey each to their own:heh: But the short skirts! The short skirts!
Demuwan Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 But the short skirts! The short skirts! Just about make it tolerable. It really isn't my type of film tbh.
Solo Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 The Bourne Ultimatum Despite the shaky camera I thought this was a satisfying conclusion to the trilogy and some of the neat touches like weaving scenes from Supremacy with this and nods to Identity (like the ending :wink:) were excellent. 8/10
Chris the great Posted August 18, 2007 Posted August 18, 2007 robin hood: prince of theives seen it like 10 times, remains one of my guilty pleasures, such a laugh though, and come on, kevin costner shooting a flaiming arow with an exploshion in the back ground is why slow mo was invented. 9/10
welsh_gamer Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 Rush Hour Not as good as I rememberd it to be, but still allright. Jackie Chan's best Hollywood movie. 6/10
UK Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 Night at the Museum. Much better than I expected, but not very funny. Still, Stiller is fantastic (as always) ans so is Gervais, so 7
Paj! Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 Talking of films, I've managed to lose my new Aeon Flux DVD, after buying the other day. I really want to see it.
mariosmentor Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 Talking of films, I've managed to lose my new Aeon Flux DVD, after buying the other day. I really want to see it. It was nothing special in my opinion.
Slaggis Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 It was nothing special in my opinion. Your right, it's not, infact it's rather the complete opposite of special. Edit: Ok, It was just plain crap tbh.
Cube Posted August 19, 2007 Posted August 19, 2007 Your right, it's not, infact it's rather the complete opposite of special. Ah, so it's "special". Anyway. Bourne Ultimatum 9/10 A wonky camera, but brilliant plot and action.
