thor 2. 6.5/10. The first one was an 8 but this one felt like they were miking it. Oh we found the stone to restore darkness and bring destruction to the whole world. OH noes we lost it.. Then they had another preview for the next movie which was about some cubes which could destroy the whole galaxy.
I'll give your post a 3/10, mostly because you used an arbitrary grading system with a whole two pointless points of reference.
Good point except for the fact you could say the same about practically any movie series where everything that really needed to be said was said in the first movie.Quote:

The prequels really get on my tits too, where a good movie cannot have a sequel because it came to an end i.e. everyone is dead ala The Thing, so the writers create a prequel to the story. These prequels range from bad to what the fuck were you thinking George Lucas? :blink:
Something bled my eyes the other day. Sex in the City prequel. I thought the movie releases were a distinct marker of cultural failure.Quote:

Yes, but the whole thing (storyline/plot) such as it was... was a bit too creepy if you ask me.Quote:

"Lone Survivor"
IMHO.. an Oscar contender! It affected me much in the way of "Hurt Locker" did... a true war drama (not for the squeamish), very well done, great special effects and stunts.
Same roller coaster ride, mans inhumanity to man, mans humanity to man, war is just pure evil, military snafus, etc, etc.... and based on a true story.
If you go for that sort of thing you'll know what I mean. ;)
(Beat the Disney® crap I watched... hands down!) :alien:
