We complain Hollywood doesn't make original movies yet when they do, the movie fails horribly,
thats why we see all the COPY cats of TWILIGHT, and NOW EVERYONE is jumping on the ZOMBIE bandwagon.
And you ask why that happened? BECAUSE WE DON'T ACCEPT ANYTHING THAT IS TRULY ORIGINAL!!!
Movies like this and ZOOLANDER AND EVEN FIGHT CLUB, when they came out they bombed horribly, but they have stand the test of time because audiences caught on and see that these are the RARE GEMS the rare films that were MADE despite a HOLLYWOOD machine that was against them.
Movies like these are too SMART for the general audience, they require people to think, to analyze, to know a little background on the topic to understand the IN jokes. I was a huge comic book super hero fan so every time I watch this it brings a smile on my face and a chuckle when I hear lines like "I'm the PMS avenger I only work 4 days a month, you got a problem with that?"
Yeah I will confess I've seen this about 50 times now.

So I liked Breaking Dawn a lot!
I just don't get the hate for the twilight movies, everyone is constantly bitching and moaning AWWW nothing is original anymore, well here it is SOMETHING original, yes the themes are old, but the idea of loving and marrying and giving birth with vampires is something we haven't seen before. (well I know now every other book or show on TV looks like Twilight now) So finally something is original why do we hate it so much, SO should we go back to Transformer 6? Transformer 7? Star Wars 8? Star wars 10?
And why do we hate it when we know it is made for a specific targeted audience?
if you are not a vegetarian, then why go to a TOFU restaurant and EXPECT to have a great time? End of the day who looks like the bigger idiot? The writers and movie company making Billions off this. Or you for wasting $15? When there are no excuses in this information age to not know what you are getting yourself into before you step into the theater?
As for breaking Dawn I think its the best out of the series so far, so the wolves talked, how else to you convey wolves communicating in a movie? Subtitles? And if its not gory enough its because they can't make the movie over a PG13 rating, its just not feasible.
I like breaking dawn the most, because I enjoyed seeing Edward and Bella finally grow up, I really liked seeing Jacob sacrifice everything, his family, his wolf pack, almost his own life to protect Bella, to protect a friend, it was almost Skakespearian, to see what Jacob had to go through, seeing the one he loves have his enemies baby and yet he was heroic enough to put all his personal feelings aside to honor his loyalty to Bella. thats something you don't see everyday! And I was really impressed with that. Its like the sacrifice in TRUE GRIT. I was really impressed with this aspect of the story.
I guess the critics all want to bash and hate Twilight/breaking dawn because its fashionable. But think about it, if this story this plot was directed by ANG LEE or STEVEN SPIELBERG, and it took place in the CIVIL WAR, where a southern Plantation soldier goes to fight for the north against his own family, and ends up still protecting the girl he has always loved through a siege by the Union, and he has to help the girl deliver a baby whos FATHER is a confederate soldier he HATES, YET he stays there only because of his loyalty and love to HER, a women he will never be with. THIS MOVIE WOULD HAVE OSCAR BUZZ ALL OVER IT! And all the critics would be praising it NON stop FOR MONTHS!
Well this is the Breaking Dawn I saw in the theaters.

The Anti-Obama message in Ghostbusters
I recently saw Ghostbuster again during one of the Thursday showing and I enlightened to see how relevant the theme of the movie is to the mess we are in. What a neat metaphor for the stupidity of whats happening right now 2011 The EPA dofus came in and made the ghostbuster shut down their containment unit, releasing all hell on to the city. The Ghostbusters had been really successful until then even managed to hire a new employee Winston. But it was the BIG GOVT EPA that not only got in the way but had no comprehension of what the Ghostbusters (private enterprise) was doing. this is exactly what has gone wrong with the country right now, we have VAST oil and gas reserves worth TRILLIONS ready to KICK start the this whole nation and set us on a path of energy independence. Get rid of the EPA, get rid of the OBAMACARE, GET rid of the NEA!!!
get the BIG GOVT doofus out of people's way and the private sector will start creating jobs again!

America Dream the myth?
the american dream was A-political, it was neither democrat or republican, in many ways it was the foundation of this country, freedom, liberty, the american dream. But in your simple minded reality I guess everything is either this way or that way, its either black or white.
You can always list the what if's what if I moved there, what if I went back to school, what if I dated her, what if, what if what if? WHAT IF THE FAULT is not my own BUT THE COUNTRY that has failed me, so according to you logic I SHOULD MOVE OUT OF THE COUNTRY? Maybe the system has failed us? NO EXCUSES? FINE then LETS protest and MAKE THE necessary changes. Do you see the fallacy in your logic, no excuses and go do something about it, well then aren't I by speaking out, aren't the protesters being proactive and doing something ABOUT IT?
All I know is there is a huge consensus a good majority of young American who are fed up. I love my country and I love my state and I love my town, but us young american are treated unfairly, we are expected now to make it when its nearly impossible to do so, the odds are stacked against us, would you tell a paraplegic to try to play on a NBA team? and when he fails you blame him, and call him a loser, and tell him he didn't try hard enough, STOP with the excuses? The system is inherently unfair, we young american's are going into it, handicapped, change needs to happen, one way or another.

What I would do to help the Wall Street protest...
I don't get it why don't they go camp out in Central park, its got plenty of bathrooms and trash pick up, its only a couple miles from wall street.
Sheep meadow is so gorgeous! There is literally a few thousand acres for them to take up in mid town, man these people aren't too bright are they?
Go camp out in central park and build their blogging/media relation station up there and march and protest up and down Manhattan till the cows come home!
they need leadership and organization there, THEY NEED ME!
they should move to Central park and start organizing into groups/sections, media relations, artists, medical tents, sign making, etc etc, and start sending out pleas for donations so they can sustain for the long haul, Winters in NYC is bitterly cold, start asking for better tents, better sleeping bags, food, clothing. get donations for trash bags and organize crews and delegate people out to clean up and pick up trash after themselves.
They need to start organizing and forming a tribal council type of govt, a Representative for each section/each delegation and hold meetings daily to respond to issues and new challenges.
My view on this movement is neutral, I'm not really for or against them. But if they want to have an effect they need to be there for the long haul.

What I think of this crap about Netflix
the guys (Hastings CEO Netflix) lost his marbles if hes so keen so sharp shouldnt he know that most NAMES with STER at the end has failed? Like Napster and Friendster? Wasn't there a Flixster?
with DVD technology improving into Blu Rays and eventually 3D Blu rays, he thinks that will go to the wayside? Having a DISC will be around for at least another 10-15 years.
Streaming wont reach that popularity until we get Fiber into our lines and can transfer enough data to watch a 3D movie.
But the next revolution will be Owning Movies and TV shows as pure digital DATA format, like the way music went from anology-disc- pure digital format.
Visual media is headed in that direction, I guess we just need the Infrastructure to transfer at a higher rate or atleast UNTIL APPLE tells us its ok to do so. Because 80% of this country doesn't seemed to understand TECH until APPLE dumbs it down and exploits the consumers.

Drive is a very good movie
Gossling plays the strong silent type a man of few words.
Its a throw back to the classics something this new generation of Film goers don't understand.
Today generation they want AN OBAMA hero, someone who blathers on and on and on and on and accomplishes nothing! they want an ALL talk no Action hero!
Gosling plays an old style movie hero like Clint Eastwood and Old john Wayne, they don't say much but when they do YOU KNOW SHITS about to go down!
People today don't get that, they WATCH too many Tarantino movies and Listen to TOO many Obama teleprompter pre- written well prepared, product research with focus groups and tested with BUZZ words speeches, they don't understand a movie is VISUAL THE AUDIENCE WANTS to see the story UNFOLD not listen to it unfold!
It really is too bad the artful style of this film will be lost on the JERSERY SHORE MTV FAST EDIT FAST cut young audience of today!
This movie is very much like WALLE, the story is told in a very visual way a great gem of a movie, I really hope Hollywood start producing more like these.

What Dubstep is to Me
What Dubstep is to Me
Dubstep isn’t rose petals and spring flowers and sunny days. Dubstep is a reflection a sign of our times, the beat, the heart and soul of my generation. Dubstep isn’t cheery, it isn’t pop, some have called it the punk side of electronica. But I think a better parallel could be drawn if we compared it to Grunge. Just as grunge rock broke out during the early nineties during a hard deep recession, where everyone’s eye, everyone’s focus was again on the working class, the unemployed, Grunge music fans even wore the signature work boots, and very much the working man’s uniform the flannel shirts, everything about grunge was proletariat (yes I know flannel was more about practicality because Seattle was very cold rather than fashion). Grunge rock was filled with angst ridden lyrics like “rape me my friend” and “black hole sun”, those lyrics screamed out for the down trodden voiceless masses. The same thing is occurring today, Dubstep represents the unemployed populace the devastated and distraught youth of today, Dubstep speaks out to the rising number of the new American poor. The heavy pulsating beats are the uncontrollable heart beat of someone stepping in to that rudely intrusive and interrogative job interview knowing beforehand you won’t get the job, the wobbles and screeching highs are all the negativity, all the doubting voices we hear each day whether the source is external or internal, it doesn’t matter. Dubstep is the cathartic explosion of all that is mean, rough, gritty, nasty, dirty, dingy, angry, bottled tightly inside many of today’s youth manifested in musical form. Dubstep is the foul pot of evil witches brew that is brimming to the top, all the built up pressure will result in an inevitable climatic explosion. Dubstep is not your older brother’s electronic music, there are no remixes of Bryan Adam’s Heaven. There are no songs with lyrics like “we’ve come a long way together” Dubstep is not pretty, Dubstep is not your first choice to prom, but rather the 5 or 6th girl you’ve asked that week regardless of what your first impression will be, she will give you a night you will never forget. That is what Dubstep is to me.

Another Earth VS Transformers
there are 2 ways to approach a sci fi flick, the premise for just about sc i-fi film is the event, whether its 2001, travelling to Jupiter in 2001, or struggle with an Apocalypse, the choice the film maker must take is to decide to either take the Macro-scopic view you can also call it the Micheal Bay view of making a movie or you can take the microscopic view.
Bay Formers takes a the macro view, everything is grand and epic, armies versus armies, everything is giant and big, explosions are huge, the action is epic in scope, but all during the movie you couldn't care less about Sam or his new girl friend Carly or the Autobots.
Another Earth was refreshing because it took a pin point, microscopic view of the event, (both movies had similar events, another planet coming into earth's view) but Another Earth developed the characters and you really cared about what happens to them, you cared about Rhoda and her quest for forgiveness, you hoped to see John get better and recover from his grief.
Another good example was Bladerunner, it was a microscopic view of Decker and really nothing else, we really weren't show what happened on outward off plants, we didn't get to see how the replicants rebelled or even what they were planning to accomplish. (yes I know its based on a book that answers my questions but I'm talking about the movie)
So my point is I really enjoyed Another Earth because it took the road less travelled, it went against the grain of most modern sci fi films. kudos to them and to a wonderful film, great story telling!
There are movies which tried really hard to straddle both approaches, Avatar made a solid attempt at being micro as well as macro. David Lynch's Dune tried to accomplish this also. I think the movie which was able to accomplish this well was Inception, it was able to bring the story down to a personal character driven level yet it kept a very epic scope in story telling.

Saw the Korean film I saw The Devil it reminded me a lot of The Dark Knight
the movie is the exact copy of TDK and is just as ridiculous as TDK too.
1) It suffers really heavily from COPS are idiot syndrome, just like in the TDK so no one else can do any detective work? Everyone else is incompetent except the hero? Both movies made everyone else look like bumbling fools.
2) Both movies the hero can 1 hit knock out and put people in hospitals, but when they attack the villain they seem to recover instantly, the joker took 100 hits from Batman and he just kept on ticking, in this movie the Oldboy dude got his arm broken, tendon cut, head smashed on rocks and he just kept on going, while the Hero put that couple in the hospital with just a few hits.
3) In both movies the Villain seems to be able to go anywhere and do whatever they want, in TDk, Joker can just magically get vats of explosives into warehouses/hosiptals/ships, like its that easy to move explosives around post 9/11 era. In this movie hes able to go just about anywhere he like despite looking like a zombie, no one else seems to call the police on him, and some how he was even able to get into the Captain's home, when the captain is the one who supplied Kim Soo with his picture, and the captain was the one who was most scared of him/situation, yet he let him in the house?
both movies really ask the audience to check their brain cells at the door if they want to enjoy this film.
4) Both movie seems to rely on use of Ultra Violence to shock the audience into believing there is some sort of realism to it all. Sorry but more violence and more gore onscreen in a film, doesn't mean your movie is great and intelligent, it just means you couldn't write out a real story and build real suspense to captivate the audience, so you fell back on the lowest common denominator, which was just elevate the acts of violence.
My film professor basically explained it this way, is it hard to get the audience's attention in a film? NO, if you want the cheap and easy route in captivating your audience just throw in the Porn, the sex, and the drugs and the violence, instantly you will have them captivated, but does that mean you wrote a good story and made a good movie? Sorry doesn't work like that.

My post on why David Lynch is so good yet misunderstood.
I don't get whats so complex about it. Lynch likes to deal in the dichotomy of of good vs evil and he does so without Grey areas. Thats what makes his movies so shocking. Think of it as a b/w Photograph, Black is Evil, White is good, a usual photo will have a mix and its all mostly the color grey.
Lynch won't do that, there is no grey in a Lynch's world, thats why his movies are so shocking, he tells the story of something good and pure, and then the second half of the movie he flips it all around into pitch darkness, the shocking contrast is what freaks people out.
Thats why the show and the movie doesn't quite seem to come together to some, its because look at the show you are seeing a mostly WHITE picture with very few hints of darkness, if you watch Fire walk with me, you are see ALL darkness, the darkness wins, and very little light in that movie.
Lynch breaks all the rules, he doesn't do Good VS Evil, HE does Good, then he will show you pure evil.

thoughts on Source Code
yeah I agree the movie is a great idea if it was just a replay of a simulation.
Which is very much possible and is completely based in reality, everyone knows when we see the light off a distant star we are seeing its existence millions years ago, not the way the star is now.
So I always wondered, me sitting at this computer, the light that is bounced off, if it was able to shoot into space it too would be lagged by millions of years.
And here is where it gets interesting we all know we don't just reflect light. Our bodies Emmit all types of energy, we are even slightly radioactive, there are probably forms of energy produce off our body science haven't even discovered (I just read scientist found a band new substance in a meteor)
So if scientist can record this AFTER GLOW, this new energy off everyone, this new energy which travels slower than light, and keep playing it in a simulator. This can actually really happen.
For instance if we measure light, isn't the light from 9/11 just now detected in some far off distance in space?
Its all just a matter of detection of different types of energy. And the Speed in which it travels.
Simplest example is Lighting, we can see a the light coming from 4 miles away pretty much instantaneously since light travels so fast, but we don't detect the sound until almost 4 seconds later? So did we travel back in time and something thats 4 seconds old? of course not.
Same thing with Source Code, maybe there are new forms of energy and detection we haven't yet invented/discovered, what if there are energies that does travel faster than light, FTL travel? What if there are energies that travel much much slower than sound? Like an After Glow?
Very interesting concepts thats really not that complicated and almost not science fiction but very much based in reality.

Fight Club Predicted our current Economy?
isn't it profound the message of the movie was to rail against the greed, the bigger is better, we must have nicer things than the johnsons down the streets mentality a foreshadow of the collapse of the US economy? Was the movie trying to warn us back in 1999 that we are headed down the wrong path. (I know its based on a novel but we are on a movie discussion board, so I'm here to talk about the movie)
I mean forget what Obama is telling you, and what the media is saying, look at the figures and facts and numbers, its 2011 are we even close to coming out of the woods yet? with the national debt so high, housing still at a slump, run away inflation, should we have heeded Fight Clubs Message?

Sucker Punch fails reminds me a lot of Fight Club
sometimes a movie comes along thats just light years ahead of what the audience is ready for. Example Fight Club, its Domestic gross is only $37 Mil, (yeah in everyones mind we'd think it was a $100Mil+ movie) the first week it came in 3rd behind Double Jeopardy and The Best Man, wow 2 movies I've never even seen before! HAHA. I guess word of mouth was really bad on it, because the next weekend it dropped to 5th place with House on Haunted Hill number 1? I'm just blown away by that.
My point being B.O. has no bearing on the quality of the film, look at the lasting influence of Fight Club, its a modern day classic, everyone knows what a fight club is now, and everyone talks about the rules of fight club. Who talks about The best man?
I remember defending Fight Club that weekend and telling everyone to go see what an incredible experience it was and its a can't miss film but everyone else telling me I'm a fool, and I'm a idiot, and David Fincher is a Hack, his career is over, he sucks! Blah blah blah, well who now thinks David Finchers Career is over after Zodiac, huge success of Benjamin Button, and this years media Darling The Social Network?

Rebecca Black's Friday inspired me to write my own
8am woke up
gotta get up
gottta go to the bathroom
But only made number 1
it wasn’t number 2
gotta eat some pop tarts
The strawberry flavored ones
Not the blueberry ones because they
Taste funny
Going on a date Friday night
With a girl who looks like Megan Fox
But more like Megan Fox from transformer 1
Not from transformer 2 because her lips looked big
Must have had surgery
You know what I like
Its Friday Friday Friday
I hope I get some on Friday
Maybe not all the way but at least some oral
Oral sex
sex sex sex sex sex
even a hand job would be nice too

When is this 80's Retro thing going to happen?
I think the generation that is suppose to be into/support this 80's retro movement has been hit the hardest by the great recession, a lot of us have lost our jobs and forced to move back home and struggling.
the thing people have to understand any retro movement, IE the 60's retro move in the 80s, with the Wonder years, the resurgence of hippie culture, the 70's Retro move in the late 1990's with That 70s show. It is all based on Capitalism and fashion companies, and film companies trying to cash in and make a buck. So to simplify there has to be a DEMAND and a SUPPLY for this.
Right now with the economy so bad, gas prices skyrocketing, no jobs to be found. Housing still in the gutter. The generation that should be demanding an 80's retro movement are all broke.
I think the movement will happen and is still happening, but will get stronger as the Economy picks up. Look we have the Smurfs movie this summer and another Transformers movie. Does it get anymore 80s than the Smurfs?

I think the movement will happen and is still happening, but will get stronger as the Economy picks up. Look we have the Smurfs movie this summer and another Transformers movie. Does it get anymore 80s than the Smurfs?

Teresa Palmer in I am Number 4
WOW all I can say is every time shes on screen the movie turned into 3D, 4D, or even a 5th D.
Damn she was smoking HOT!
Overall pretty good Sci Fi flick, but damn if you didn't think Teresa Palmer was the Bee's Knees, something is wrong with you.

Hollywood Hates Asian Females
I hate how Hollywood Portrays ASIAN Females!
Case in point, the Asian female in Scott Pilgrim VS the world, she because obsessive and psycho because GOD FORBID her BEAUTIFUL WHITE PRINCE didn't want to be with her anymore. That was Highly Offensive, that movie makes it seem like WHITE males are so precious so special, that to a lowly asian female it would be like winning the freaking Lottery to get a WHITE GUY!
And in the Social Network, the white nerds get ASIAN FEMALES as their groupies, which plays on the stereotype that ASIAN FEMALES are attracted to WHITE NERDS like a Fat kid is to CAKE, WHITE NERDS are ASIAN FEMALE Kryptonite RIGHT? Literally in that movie, the asian Females get weak in the knees and immediately drops to their knees in a bathroom stall just to service their white masters. And if that wasn't offensive enough, later on when the Eduardo Character wants to break up with her AGAIN PSYCHO ASIAN G/f she stalks him and sets his bed almost his house on fire.
WOW really?
This is how 2011 Hollywood portrays my asian Female sisters?
Get a clue please Hollywood!

Green Hornet or Yellow Hornet?
I didn't mind the movie so much that it did play on very old old hollywood stereotypes of Asian men. We have to understand Hollywood is a social propaganda machine thats here to brainwash and correct us on our social behavior. We are brainwashed and mind controlled by movies since we are little. Example we are taught that black men can't date white women, and often times we are taught from movie Black men are the Criminals of our society and we need to watch out for them.
the same kinda thing has occurred to Asian men we are good at math and we can do your math homework while the while characters Party and have wild sex, and we so socially retarded we can never date get with any girls (yes I know the most populated people in the world, yet hollywood believes they can't date and mate at all) if you study the history of cinema this horrific thing hollywood has done to minorities was started pretty much the first images were put on film. Its a little shocking we are in the year 2011 and little has changed.
In the movie Green Hornet all I can do is laugh at the irony that Jay Chou a multimillionaire in Asia, the Justin Timberlake of asia has trouble getting with a old hag like Cameron Diaz, who looked like she was almost 50. In Asian girls would literally shave their heads just to spend 5 mins with Jay. And I was embarrassed for the writers, that part of the film seemed inept and lacking, that part of the movie just seemed so out of place and awkward.
but in my opinion I don't feel Green Hornet was as negative as other films in recent times IE The Hangover. Because Green Hornet is sort of a HOMAGE a tribute of older concepts and old times, for example it would be like making a 1830's film of the south and seeing African Americans as slaves, OFFENSIVE YES, but true to the time very much so. Well Green Hornet was in many ways a movie set in an earlier time, LOOK at the CAR Black Beauty a 1964 Impala? (you guys can double check my research on that) And Britt doesn't even get a Gun to use, he has a gas gun which looked like it was made in the 50's.
So the best way I can defend this movie is that its made from source material of an earlier time, and we are all familiar with what the roles were. Obviously if Hollywood made an 2011 Original Brand New Super Hero show/movie with similar themes and stereotypes , the audience has more of a right to be offended.
