DisGUSting! Who does Hollywood take us for today?
Angelina Jolie...MMMMM
Gotta love those lips.
Oh, and uh, yeah, the trailer stinks.
I just want to go see it so I can check out her big fake thingies.
I don't even care to see that movie. Now I'll admit that I really do like Angelina Jolie as an actress (and she doesn't look all that bad either <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0"> ) but I don't care to watch that movie one bit.
If nothing else, it should have really good special effects. That plus "the twins" should make for at least a good matinee.
It doesn't matter that the movie will suck, there are only two reasons that anyone will go to it, and neither of them involve a good movie.
I'll just add it to the long list of tripe Hollywood serves up and then wonders why I stay away from in droves...
You don't like movies based on video games?Quote:

I wish they would make PacMan The Movie.
Arnold Schwarzenegger as PacMan
Cameron Diaz as Ms. PacMan
Ben Stiller as Inky
Jim Carrey as Blinky
Scott Thompson as Pinky
And Rodney Dangerfield as Clyde
Mrs. Jolie is in the top 10 beautiful woman's list. She can wreck my trailer any o'l day.
HOOT HOOT.... <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">
Angelina Jolie is a hottie, but I'll probably just wait for it to come out on video and DVD. That way I can pause and rewind, and watch it frame by frame. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
They will keep on makin' 'em 'till we stop seein' them. All there is to it. If you don't go see bad movies, they will not make bad movies. It's a simple equation. If you want to see something good, find the art house theater and go as often as you can to give $ to independant artists who are creating the decent flicks.
IF:
The flick has a one liner in the trailer, don't go.
If the flick is based on a video game, don't go.
If the trailer starts with "In a world...", don't go.
If there are more 'splosions than dialogue, don't go.
If it is reviewed as "Die Hard on a boat, plane, train or anything else", don't go.
If the music is so loud you need earplugs in the next theater, don't go.
You get the picture.
Do any of these cartoons bring back memories?
Donkey Kong
Super Mario Bros.
Frogger
Pac Man
Double Dragon
I don't thing that Tomb Raider ranks anywhere on my 'movies to watch' list, but Final Fantasy has my interest so far. I just don't think that video games should go into movies (unless we are talking an interective movie) Mario Brothers failed as did Double Dragon. I'm not holding my breath for Laura Croft's salvation.
About that PacMan thing Larommi, I totally LOVE it! Do you remember the PacMan Cartoon from back in the 80's. Ms PacMan would always refer to the Pac as "packie", it was so cute. And when Pac would bust up some ghosts the eyes would go back to the base, and there was this evil dude there (PAC's nemesis) i can't remember his name, but for the film i'm seeing Alan Rickman or Christopher Walken...
We just need a plot now and to get ILM on board for the effects.
yeah, but shift_2_break, didn't Mortal Kombat jusy kick all the a$$? I got the soundtrack even.
Becuase it's based on one of my favorite games, I need to go see it.
Becuase Angelina Jolie is in it, means when I go see it I need to wear baggie pants. <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">
BUT...I do not expect it to be good!!
heh heh heh...Final Fantasy on the other hand...
There are exceptions to every rule and Mortal Kombat was exceptional! (I can't believe that I forgot that one. <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0"> )Quote:

I guess I've come to expect a lot in story line and animation from Squaresoft, so Final Fantasy has my vote of another game gone to movie that will win attention. Tomb Raider will only work for the hormone driven and die hard fans of the game.
(What would a movie look like for Metroid?)
Or Legend of Zelda...Quote:

If ya ask me, the woman is H O T.
Come on, out of every girl I know, Angelina Jolie is the only one that any of them would consider making out with. Don't ask me why this is, but I have asked several and they all confirmed the same thing.
You gotta admit, she's got it goin' on.
Im going to try and avoid the movie as much as I can, ask me, angela jolie is a might skank ..
I used to date a chick that would have made a perfect Lara.. big blue eyes.. perfect figure.. and she even had photos dressed as lara to prove it :P
I wasnt a fan of the game either way.....
Being a big fan of the Alien saga, I gotta say that a Metroid movie would kick some major @$$. Tomb Raider won't be good, but its not trying to be good. It'll be a campy action flick with a hot chick. I think I can handle leaving my brain on hold long enough to watch it.
I don't care I would still make a 'movie' or two with her <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">
I will be seeing it purely on the acting ability of the cast (namely the lead role), and the ability of Hollywood to produce such brilliant films such as these....
BWWWHHHHAAAAA, sorry, I cannot continue...
Note to self: Remember to buy 'xtra big box of popcorn just in case...
I hate not only the movie trailer, but also the game trailers.
i just love those sprites! <IMG SRC="smilies/confused.gif" border="0">
i just want to watch that movie
mmm, Angelina Jolie.... <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">
she is hot... <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
mmm, nice <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">
damn she's hot
i'll watch the movie, just to see her <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
Metroid the Movie; now that I would pay to go see. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
(begin rant)
So what's wrong with a little testosterone driven entertainment? It never fails to amaze me that people will automatically label a movie with "THIS SUCKS" before they even watch the thing. <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0">
They go into the theater expecting some movie of earth-shaking importance, when the movies intention was to be a SFX treat. Godzilla was a classic example of this. I read about all these people saying how the movie didn't live up to expectations. Well, I went in there wanting a giant lizard stomping around in NYC, and I got what I wanted. *I* enjoyed the movie. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
My expectations of Tomb Raider: The Movie? I expect to see A. J. bouncing around in an action movie. If the plot is anywhere close to what the games had, I will be pleased with that as well. Will it be Oscar caliber? I highly doubt it. But, I will still probably enjoy it. <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">
(end rant)
Plus you would feel wierd doing things to yourself in the movie theater.Quote:

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm............big fake thingies.........
But anyway, I prefer the ones that are real.
Let me think hmmmmmmmm. yep. Id do her. <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">
Remember Captain M the Game Master? He had a meeting with Link in a couple episodes. If they took Final Fantasy animation and a good script, I would be all over that movie just as fast as I'll be in Final Fantasy this summer.Quote:

I got a better look at A.J. last night and these words came to mind:
A long long time ago
I can still remeber how those those bikinis used to make me smile
and I knew that if I had one chance that I could make those thingies dance
Then maybe she'd be happy for awhile
(anyone care to add to this? I can't remember the rest of the song.)
Why does everyone think Angelina Jolie is a good actress? SHE'S CRAP!Quote:

Sure people liked her in that weird movie about those insane teenage girls (it probably wouldn't have been so acclaimed if they weren't all very attractive <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">, but c'mon. Her one acting "ability" is a raised eyebrow/pout expression.
But yes, I am going to see the film...
LOL!!!! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">Quote:

Three words that mean it will fail:
No Nell McAndrew. <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0">
Actually I am still waiting for them to make Resident Evil the Movie. They were plugging it awhile back and even had a contest, you could win a walk on part in the movie...probably a zombie.Quote:

I personally think the movie looks good. I always keep an open mind when it comes to new movies. I even kept and open mind when it came to Charlies Angels movie.... which....SUCKED TO THE EXTREME!!!
Anyways, Angelina definately has got the body for this part. <IMG SRC="smilies/eek.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/eek.gif" border="0">
