    I found it really stupid the first time I watched it but once I watched it again in a bit of a more intoxicated state, I started to find the humor in it.

    True, 28 Days Later was a lot better (yet another movie that they shouldn't have made a sequal to) the more realistic look of the zombies was what made it so freaky. It's hard to take the zombies in I am Legend seriously when it is so obvious that they are CGI. CGI only works when the movie is a cartoon or they can pass the CGI off as real. 300 works with the CGI because everything is integrated with the CGI. In I Am Legend everything else seems real except the monsters. It really does ruin in.

    hmmm


    can't say i've ever disagreed more with a collection of film comments

    300 - *
    matrix - laughably bad
    clockwork orange - sad and pathetic
    la confidential - oh PLEASE
    star wars - LEGENDARY!

    the ultimate let down has to be Shawshank. A film that i would describe as "quite good" not get the reaction it seems to get. People mention it and seem to just * at the thought of it. It really wasn't that good.

    Best film of all time? No doubt about it: "Tarnation" by Jonathan Caouette.

    Still Irvy, i'm sure ur a great guy. You hang about in a cool forum, support the best team in the world. But would I call u a wine connoisseur? hmm.

    300 was brilliant it did what it said on the tin-all action mindless violence
    matrix-ok but couldnt get into it
    clockwork orange-look past the basics or read the * book and see the message
    LA confidential-couldnt be bothered to see it
    star wars, 1st one good 2nd one brilliant 3rd one good new ones *!!

    How is the matrix laughably bad?


    The first one was one of the most unique and groundbreaking movies in the 20th century.

    I'm in stitches here. It was all about special effects and had absolutely no substance. In saying that I didn't watch it all, I turned it off it was so bad.

    Who the * actually liked it?:97:


    Agreed. The dog was the real legend. That was the most dramatical point in the movie, the dug popping its clogs.

    Martin I dont see why you can say that. The story was very original and ground breaking and when we look back at the dawn of the internet 30 years from now the Matrix will be seen from a far as part of this new beginning of computering and lifestyle.

    The Matrix will be seen as a flashy, shallow, gimmick movie for teenagers. I'd be amazed if it was regarded as a classic piece of cinema.

    I spose the opposite is the case. I went to the cinemas and expected some pistoleros à la john woo. no need to say my mates and I left the room disappointed after the end. we were 14/15 year old teenagers. although there was a certain hype surrounding the flick at that time, I'm sure most peeps didn't get the movie at all. I don't know why, but a few years later I was standing in a dvd shop and noticed the dvd for a very low price and something deep in me commanded me to buy it. I watched it again and again and the more you see it the more you understand and the more you like it. in my last year at college we spent a whole semester in philosophy on that film. our teacher and some other professors were really in love with that film, so we went through the film line for line (of course only if there was a philosophical connection). at the end we had an exam about the matrix.

    my point is although the special effects were very good there's a deeper meaning in that film. it's an intelligent, unique film classic. something like the "blade runner" (funny enough, I don't really like it) of the 90s.
