Wow, some people are going to be NARKED at you for badmouthing AP. Seriously. :v But I can see your point entirely.
But yeah, from how you described The Raid, it sounds like a good version of some action-intensive movies, even if some parts look hilariously OTT like the hitting-his-head-all-the-way-down-the-wall bit. Will watch.

It's a good martial arts movie those doesn't use the tournament set-up. Is anything beyond this sentence necessary to get you to see it?
Mmm it sound like The Raid is somewhat the oppersite to Assault on Precinct 13 since it revole on the invader (them getting into the bad guy building) per say as oppose to the defender in the Precinct film (defend the police station from the bad guys trying to enter it).
I saw that Ted trailer today and I do admit it could[/b] be funny seeing how it's mostly like Family Guy but without the random clips and humour throw in out of nowhere which is a good thing.

i had actually forgotten that waste of film of a movie was coming out(AP) so, no, wasn't expecting it. i also hated 'there's something about mary' to, fuck that movie, and every movie that came out trying to be it.
anyway.
the raid. sounds pretty awesome, would like to go see it but i don't think its playing anywhere near me. :/
know what i was expecting though? something about the new total recall, cause .... why ....

An action scene with geography?
10 Minutes long. One scene. An action scene. Say he trips up at the end? Start again. You know exactly what the area looks like, because you see it as he does.
Children of Men. An amazing film. Watch it
EDIT: Oops, forgot there are a couple cuts in it, but to be fair, it's still pretty awesome.
Should also say that this scene is towards the end of the film (Pretty much the second last scene), but doesn't spoil too much in itself.

It's nice to get back to good old movie reviews!
Although I didn't like American Pie that much, I'm going out on a blind date setup by my friends to this movie...so I guess I'll see how it is.

How can you say there's no memorable action sequences in the Transformers movies?
The freeway chase in Dark of the Moon
The forest fight in Revenge of the Fallen
The Qatar fight in Transformers
and those were just at the top of my head.
Say what you will about Michael Bay, but the man can film a great action scene.

But he has to remind us how much his high school years sucked, same as every other time he hates a movie that panders to the crowd he hates.Axolotl said:
Okay, American Pie was singularly mediocre. But now after a decade of sequels and spin-offs all suffering from significant degrees of diminishing returns, having the original cast (and any pretense of effort) back, is bound to make make Reunion look like cinematic gold to anyone who's been foolishly watching all the others in this misbegotten series.
If it's any consolation, it looks like the UK is having one cinema in London show Iron Sky. One. Single. Cinema. >.>DVS BSTrD said:I was actually expecting you to do Iron Sky (kinda seems your type of movie) but since it doesn't seem to be playing ANYWHERE in Massachusetts
I'm glad The Raid's shaky cam won't be buging me too much.
