and armeggedon [brain fart spelling] is a good movie kinda does what its supposed to,bigbudget triller

the thing that bugged me the most about it, exept the crazy idea of Bruce Willis saving the entire world by blowing up a meteorite (with not that much warning), was the scene where he says goodbye to he's daughter. And the ending where everything is fine.. it was sickening. Im usually very positive toward catastrophe movies. Not this one. And why is it always Bruce Willis that has to save the world?? (Hes got the company of Keifer Southerland now I know, but anyways)

Armageddon came out just about the same time that song "daddy loves you" (I think it was by Will Smith) came out. All I could think about during that horrible scene just before Willis sacrefices himself for his daughter and the world was that stupid song... made the scene a bit funnier..

1: Batman & Robin
2: Highlander: The Source (okay, so technically, it's not out yet, but I've seen it, and it's baaaaad)

And to comment on two of the movies mentioned above:

I adored Solaris. Great film. As soon as I finished it the first time, I read the screenplay without even getting up to go to the bathroom, I wanted to continue the experience so much.

And I thought A Histroy of Violence was great, in my(and many others') top 10 for that year.

Is that the one with the guy in the mountain? If so than it's the Highlander 3 movie I mentioned earlier.
There's been some talk about Highlander 2 but I admit, I actuallly like that movie. Sure it's not the best movie in the world but I thought it was amusing and Michael Ironside is always a great villain. Highlander 3 however, was just horrible. Crappy, unbelievable story, no continuity with the other films, and since when did Connor adopt a kid?

*edit*
Ok, I just read your post again and I see it's a new Highlander movie?!?? Why would they do such a thing? WHY??? The first one was great but every movie after that has gotten progressively crappier. The show was all right if you took it as a seperate entity from the movies but not great and that Endgame movie made me ill.

Yep, the whole story is in the foreword of "The Ultimate Hitchhikers Guide To The Universe" Which is all 5 books plus a short story in one giant book.

...The reason the book is so well...crazy at times and parts are a little hard to make sense of ( a trilogy of five?!:P) because (something I heard for a teacher of mine) it was all originally a radio show that at any moment could be cancelled, so he had to be able to finish the 'story' at any time.

The history is right in that it was originally a radio show, but the books weren't a transcript. Every time it went to a new medium (radio, TV, book, play, movie) it was rewritten with just the basic idea and characters the same.

Another fun bit of trivia, the first book ends abruptly because he had missed so many deadlines* that his publisher told him literally "finish the page you are on and send it in".

Sorry Chrisisall...hated it (solaris)...and, actually loved 2001...as for "DING...fight?" no thanks, it's pointless and life is too short - we like what we like and we don't like what we don't.

I'm a big fan of the series, whgich I hold on the same level as the first movie. 2 & 3 sucked. I enjoyed Endgame, though it did have problems. But The Source... not only does it not feel like a Highlander film (it makes 2 feel like a great follow-up), but it's just a horribly written and made film top to bottom. I like the characters (this one centers on Duncan, Methos, Joe and some new folk), but the movie is just plain awfull. Post-apocalyptic setting, tazmanian devil-style sped-up fight scenes, Cannibal biker gangs, and a Villain who says some of the most idiotic dialog I've heard, and that's when he's not singing "Who wants to live forever" from the original film. Bad, bad, bad movie.

Yes, it was never actually released, you could only see it at comic cons, but now you can get it pretty easy on ebay.

And hey, come on--Casablanca isnt no 2 on the AFI list of all time greatest movies for nothing. (I still watch Serenity at least one a month though)

After all Peulsar never said he didn't like Serenity, just not quite as much as Casablanca.

Serenity isn't my favorite movie either but it is in my top five with Firefly as my favorite TV show ever.

As to the Fantastic Four movie you're refering to, I've never seen it but I now what kind of crap Roger Corman turnes out. Any fan of MST3K has seen a few of his..."films"...
The thought of a comic book movie coming from that man is just revolting.
