taken 2

Aliens was good. But I did like the first as well. Both good in their own way I'd say.

"Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?"

Quality.

Her reply even better......"No, have you?"
 
No, have you ? - absolute quality

I think my favorite bit is " you always were an ass hole Gorman"

Another one that works Oceans xx - 11 was good, 12 was okay (probably not as good as 11) but 13 was awesome (thankfully they had the sense to stop rather tha make a 14)

And the fistfull of dollars trilogy - Fistful was okay, for a few dollars more was an epic, and GB&U (which was set first but made 3rd) was outstanding

On the flip side films that should have been left alone - Magnificent 7 , the first one was ace, "..Ride again" was okayish, "guns of..." was crap , and the fourth one (whatever that was called) was excrebable

and Dirty Harry , 1 was good, 2 was alright, magnum force was so so, the enforcer was utter crap, and I lost interest with 5 when they are pursued down the road by a remote control car :shrug:

Dude, fail!!!

"Doesn't mean we're engaged or anything" :naughty:

Thats what I get for trying to remember intead of checking via google ;)
 
Pitch Black is another example of where the second film sucked - Pitch black was okay, but chronicles of riddick was utter crap

Ive never thought this. Pitch Black was better but Chronicles I enjoyed and have watched a fair few times.

Looking forward to the new one later this year, "Riddick".
 
You keep that up Ruthie and i'm gonna take off and nuke the whole site from orbit - then you'll be sorry :lol:
 
Game over man! Game over!

This is so nuts. I mean, listen - listen to what you're saying. It's paranoid delusion. How - It's really sad. It's pathetic.

But now we've come full circle. Liam Neeson was in that. :D

Not one of his better roles imo (it wasnt his fault - but the screen writer wanted taking out and shooting with the most powerful handgun in the western world)
 
yeah fairy muff 3 was more like Alien imo , although the swan dive into the hot lead at the end was very similar to the end of terminator two
 
Another one with crap sequels

Matrix - the first one was outstanding , the 2nd one really wasnt , and I didntbother watching the third one

Now that, I do agree with.

I know why you're here, Ruth. I know what you've been doing... why you hardly sleep, why you live alone, and why night after night, you sit by your computer. You're looking for a moose :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
A great example of the second movie being better than the first (in my opinion) is The Empire Strikes Back.

You should be so lucky Pete :p

Yep, I'd agree with that. The thing about Star Wars though is that there were always going to be more of them. The problems start when a one off film does well and they decide they can squeeze more cash out of it.

Remember... all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more. :lol: :suspect: :exit:

I dread to think how Disney are going to handle the final 3.
 
:'(
 
Cant be any worse than John Carter can they? :gag:

Oh. Ohhh dear. I'd managed to erase that from my memory.
Oh that was very bad indeed.
 
There are notable exceptions, Bad Boys 2 was way better than the 1st.

Bad Boys 2 is miles better than Bad Boys
The Dark Knight is miles better than Batman Begins IMO.

(Yes there have been many Batman films but I'm only thinking about this incarnation)
 
though the dark knight rises wasnt as good as the Dark knight (hard to top Heath Ledger as the Joker)

Yes on both counts but the Batman films were always going to be a trilogy so no surprise there

Absolutely, which makes it so annoying that it's the one where the DVD is missing from its case! :bang:

Contains one of my favourite lines - "What(ever) doesn't kill you makes you stranger"
 
Avatar 2, 3 and 4 are coming...

Back off subject, Underworld really appealed to me. The second was pretty good too (two).
Must be something about girls in leather...
The others were terrible.
Luckily there have been a few one offs: Limitless, The Adjustment Bureau, Inception.
 
Another 3 avatars! can it get any worse?
 
No, no, no . . . I enjoyed Aliens, as already said a very different film to the first one and great in its own way, but I don't think you could ever top Alien.
In fact it's my single all time favourite film.

So.....which version do you prefer?
