You’re right…this movie sucked.  One of the big problems is there aren’t any action scenes in the film until the end.  You wait for something to happen until the very end.

Doug Jones used his own voice in Pan’s Labyrinth and will use his own voice in the next Hellboy movie as Abe Sapien.

You forgot to mention that Wonder Year’s Fred Savage directed Daddy Day Camp.

I wouldn’t say that there weren’t any. The whole London Eye thing was an action scene.

Dammit Fred Savage. Direct something good. I guess you gots to get your breaks where you can.

Wait…that was an action scene?  There wasn’t much action.  Holding up a giant ferris wheel is a prelude to an action scene but shouldn’t be the whole thing as little action happens.  Most directors would have that be one part of a much larger event.  Not so with Story and his crap directing.  You should read the FF: ROTSS review.  He nails the movie perfectly. 

The more I think about this movie, the more I hate it.  Not just because it’s total crap but because of the squandered potential.  It could have been so much better but because FOX only sees it as a quick cash cow and not something that should be nurtured and developed, we’ll never get a good FF movie.

The budget for the movie is a reported $130 million.  You look at the screen and wonder where they spent the money.  It wasn’t on script, salary or special effects.

Yeah, that was a great review and spot on. I still like the Surfer though.

This is pretty spot on how I feel about it….it could be great but they just smurfin it up.

So, what everyone is saying is that I should wait until this is out on PPV and spend 3 bucks with free food and the ability to pause instead of 9 bucks, another 8 for food and no potty breaks? Hmmmmmm.

No we are saying wait till it hits USA and they show it three days in a row and you can try and make it all the way thru over the whole weekend.

Will do. Now I can spend that money on wine and ciggs. Yay addictions.
