Plot is kind of interesting, what with Megamind actually killing Metroman
I bet Megamind didn't really kill him, he just faked his death and stays low as a musician, another passion of his.

I haven't seen the movie. I saw a commercial that was like "Here's everything that happens in the movie. Enjoy."

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Saw that right after I saw it. I was just like "WTF THAT'S THE WHOLE MOVIE"

I get that they want to show people that there is good stuff in the movie, but they really need to stop making trailers with all the good part in it.
[/quote]
Solution: stop watching trailers.
It's worked wonders for me.

Turn off TV when commercial comes on?

Don't watch TV lol. I pretty much only use our TV for movies or games. Now that they stopped re-running Whose Line I don't have much to watch.

Venture Bros and South Park in good quality are too important.

Re: The Movie Thread - Stein - 11-12-2010
Watched Scott Pilgrim vs. The World last night.
Very funny, amazing cinematography (or photography, or whatever you call it).
Also, it has Michael Cera in it so it had to be good.
Oh, and Anna Kendrick who's from Portland, ME. Straight Maine Reppin'.

Never said we did. It was mildly humorous with poor acting and no story.
It basically had all the same problems that SW:EP1 has, only it is much shorter.
Re: The Movie Thread - Stein - 11-13-2010
Yeah, I was glad it was short. Acting could have been a lot better (the girl who played the older sister in Mystery Team was only soso, and a lot of them were just plain bad).
I still really liked the cinematography, especially between cuts.
Re: The Movie Thread - Surf314 - 11-13-2010
I'm surprised no one has brought this up yet:
The Warrior's Way (2010) - Trailer (HD)
Re: The Movie Thread - KarthXLR - 11-13-2010
Honestly surprised more people didn't like Scott Pilgrim.
I'm betting that it will hit cult status in a few years, but it's interesting to hear everyone's opinions now that it's out on DVD.

I didn't care for it.
It was different, yes, but it seemed to me like it tried so hard to be different that it just became unbearable to watch. Like that kid who just runs around telling everyone how cool he is when everyone else knows that it's far from true. Painful and embarrassing for everyone involved.
It was still neat to watch but I couldn't really enjoy it.

The characters besides Scott are all two-dimensional and it is very difficult to relate to the protagonist.
There is barely a plot. When the resemblance of one forms it lacks any challenge of the main character.
No emotion is conveyed to the audience nor any excitement at the climax of the movie.
The cuts are fast and hard, making scenes hard to follow.
There is nothing redeeming or remarkable about it.

I really liked it but then I read all the comics.

Everything you listed I actually enjoyed or didn't see any problems with. Different tastes I guess. :-\

Re: The Movie Thread - KarthXLR - 11-14-2010
Just saw the "recobbled" cut of The Thief and the Cobbler. It's not necessarily a great story, but the completed animation is astounding to watch. The last 10 minutes is the most epic scale rube goldberg machine in history. The vocal work was also very good.
The whole story behind this movie is really sad. It's essentially the tale of Richard Williams (Animation Director of Who Framed Roger Rabbit) and his dream project. An animated epic that was to stand the test of time. He spent over 25 years independently funding and animating it, also managing to get some voice work out of Vincent Price (who is great in the movie as ZigZag). Williams eventually pitched the movie to Warner Bros. and they gave him two years to finish his only 20-minute project. Two years passed, and only about 15 minutes were left to be completed. No editing had been started yet. Warner Bros. dropped the project, fearing of competition from Disney's suspiciously similarly-themed "Aladin", leaving it to be picked up by Miramax studios. They hired a third party studio to finish animations, in which they also heavily changed the plot, added voices to previously mute characters, and removed about 30 or so minutes of Richard's animation and added god-awful song sequences. Miramax also dropped the film and Disney proceeded to pick it up. They took more of Richard's animation out and added more songs. Richard Williams has disowned the project and refuses to talk about it to this date.
TL;DR version:
The theatrical version is bastardized to the highest degree. You can probably find a copy of the recobbled cut on most torrent sites (as it's a fan-edit and isn't legally allowed to be sold)
Re: The Movie Thread - Spore - 11-14-2010
Watched Unstoppable. It was alright, but everybody in the movie was incompetent. Then snuck into Skyline while walking out. Best comedy of the year.
Re: The Movie Thread - HeK - 11-14-2010
I'm still waiting for a uncut version of Babylon A.D. to come out.
Remove 90 minutes, of course the movie won't make any sense.
