Remake of Alien
Alex C:
By the way, I am fine with the occasional macho wankfest (I -love- Aliens), I just prefer for them not to be as slow as molasses as well as utterly bereft of personality.
Joseph:
Yeah, even when I was 12 or whatever I thought Gladiator was pretty boring.
And even if you do like it, can you seriously say that it is half the movie that 'Bladerunner' is?
Dazed:
It's probably half the movie Blade Runner is. Blade Runner is goddamn fantastic though and I am now actually looking forward to this movie.
David_Dovey:
I just don't get Blade Runner. Someone explain Blade Runner to me, guys.
(I don't wanna know the plot or anything, tell me what is appealing about it.)
Gladiator is pretty cool but I think that may be because I saw it a long long time ago and now all I remember are the 'action movie one-liners' ("On my mark, unleash hell") and speeches (the whole "I am Decimus Meridius Maximus and I will have my vengeance" deal) which were of a pretty high standard, considering.
a pack of wolves:
The whole Western terror of Japanese economic and cultural power thing is pretty interesting. The unease surrounding the inability to differentiate organic and non-organic is pretty nice too, and using noir as a setting for that makes a satisfying amount of sense. Basically all of the appealing parts are about paranoia one way or another.
