I'd rather watch paint dry than anything involving Statham ...

 

:yikes: Are you allowed to not like Statham movies and still call yourself a man?

 

 

Statham is a colossal bell-end ... I can't stand his films ...

Yeah that's impossible, even Chuck Norris should bow down to Statham!

Whoa! Let us not get carried away.

 

But for real, you think "Lock, Stock," "Snatch," "Mean Machine," "The Transporter," "The Italian Job," "Revolver," "The Bank Job," "The Expendables," "The Mechanic," and "Killer Elite" were all terrible, terrible films?

 

 

'Lock, Stock ...' had a decent cast ... never seen 'Snatch' ... avoided 'Mean Machine' ...

 

'The Transporter' was ... just ... dire ...

 

Won't go anywhere near 'The Italian Job' (why 'remake' an absolute classic?)

 

'The Expendables' is like a 'who's who' of actors I couldn't care less about ... although, to give Stallone his due, 'Copland' WAS good ... and, yes, I watched the Rambo films back in the day ...

 

Sorry, boys, but I wouldn't cross the road to piss on Statham if he was on fire ... he's all that's bad about a lot of action films ...

Silent Running (1972)


Environmentally-themed sci-fi in which the Earth's foliage has gone extinct, but new forests are being grown in massive greenhouses in outer space. When the crew of one ship receives orders to destroy the greenhouses and return home, a crew member goes "rogue" and does whatever he can to protect the precious plant and animal specimens.
The flick is pretty dated looking now, but features a great performance by Bruce Dern (in what amounts to a one-man show), charming old-school special effects and even a couple of cute robots.

Straham isn't much that is for sure but Norris is awful , I tried rewatching a few of his 80's movies and couldn't get thru 15 minutes of either movie, and the Expendable movies are some of the worst movies to come out in the last decade...

"Mega Shark vs. Crocosaurus" (2011)

 

 

2nd film in The Asylum's "Mega Shark" series stars Jaleel "Urkel" White (!) as a Naval shark expert who's pressed into service by a top secret Government monster-fighting unit and gets teamed up with an Aussie croc hunter to help kill the two title creatures. Lots of badly CGI'd mayhem follows in a film that feels like it was made up as it went along. Poor, even by Asylum standards... but it must be noted that my 7 year old son and 11 year old niece thought it was "sweet!" :rofl2:

"2 Guns" with Mark Wahlberg and Denzel Washington. Pretty good.

Yep. Like I've said before, they have such great chemistry. I hope they work together in the future.

Good movie, a bit too long, the first 30 minutes is very good but then it started to get boring in the middle before picking up again in the last 45 minutes. Amazing performance by Chiwetel!

"House" (1986)

Sean "Friday the 13th" Cunningham produced this cheesy horror-comic cult classic, with William "Greatest American Hero" Katt as an author who moves into his recently-deceased aunt's old house, hoping it will help him break thru his writer's block. Naturally it doesn't take long for weird sh*t to start happening.
Charmingly silly stuff that hasn't held up well but is still lotsa fun in a retro sort of way.

 

"Code of Silence" (1985) Chuck Norris as a hard nosed, lone wolf Chicago cop who gets caught up in a turf war between two rival Mob families. This was one of Chuck's most well received films, due mainly to the gritty script and "A" level budget (the film was originally envisioned as a vehicle for Clint Eastwood, who turned it down). Directed by Andrew Davis, who would go on to do "Under Siege" and "The Fugitive."

 

"DinoCroc" (2004) - a genetics lab messes with DNA from a prehistoric crocodile and accidentally creates a hulking, hungry mutation that starts chomping on the locals in this cheesy-but-fun monster flick from Roger Corman. It's nothing you haven't already seen in dozens of other creature features but it's funny, gory, action packed and for once, the CGI doesnt' totally suck.

"Barracuda" (1978)

 

When this obscure B-Movie turned up on Netflix I thought to myself, "Wow, A '70s killer-fish movie that I haven't seen? Must watch!" ... and 90 minutes later I was kicking myself.

 

A Florida chemical company discharges toxic waste into the ocean, which causes the local barracuda population to go nuts and start adding humans to their diet in this piss-poor '70s eco-horror that was obviously made to cash in on the popularity of 'Jaws' and 'Piranha.'

In addition to a muddled conspiracy-theory/government cover-up subplot, the flick (also known as "Barracuda: The Lucifer Project") also features glacial pacing and amateur level acting/scripting.

 

If you want some decent aquatic-critter carnage, Netflix also currently has the aforementioned 'Piranha' (1978) and 'Humanoids From the Deep' (1980) available for streaming, go with either of those instead of this turd.

"Planet of the Apes" (1968) - an astronaut crew on a deep space mission crash lands on a mysterious planet where apes are the dominant species and humans are mute dumb animals. Charlton Heston's acting is pure ham and the "twist" ending has been parodied to death but this sci-fi classic is still great fun.

"Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" (2006) - Johnny Depp is back for another round of entertaining nonsense as Capt. Jack Sparrow, battling the fish faced Davy Jones and his mutant crew for yet another priceless treasure.

"Birth of the Living Dead" (2013) - documentary about how George Romero's "Night of the Living Dead" redefined the horror genre and influenced an entire generation of independent filmmakers. A little dry in spots, but mostly entertaining.

    • Added Framing the Red over on the main site recently: Framing the Red discography reference list of music CDs. Heavy Harmonies Their website: Framing The Red Their Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/framingtheredband Their YouTube channel: (23) Framing the Red Official Page - YouTube They have four releases, and all are quite good in my opinion. If I had to describe them, I'd say this is what Gunshine would sound like if they went in a more southern rock direction.  Here are some of my favorite tracks... Crossroads   Whiskey & Weed   Holy Water   Mississippi Hippie   Heroes   Bonnie & Clyde   Rockin' Into the Night (38 Special cover)   "Crossroads" and "Heroes" are probably my two faves.  *I will give a word of warning:  if you decide to purchase any of their discs, they are barebones releases with just the CD in a cardboard slipcase. I enjoy the music enough that that's not an issue for me though.  @lettard @KarpetRydOFunk @tts42572 @AlphaMale @Dead Planet @Mr.AOR @tobi is an animal I think all of you gentlemen should give these guys a listen and see what you think. 
    • H.E.A.T - 1000 Miles Vega - Hands In The Air The Defiants - Stay Issa - River of Love I'm at work right now so that's all I know off the top of my head but I'll look through my library for more when I get a chance.
    • Maybe anything by the Darkness
    • Wig wam - hard to be a rock n roller
    • Saw these guys first time a couple of years ago, when they were 16-17 years old, they are absolutely awesome. They have been touring for a few years now, performing their own songs, yet haven't released anything, until now. I have tickets to see them this saturday, opening for Mercenary. First single and video:  
    • I want to compile quite an extensive playlist of hard rock songs that has a key change in the end. Why? Cause I think it sounds awesome Some well known exambles are: Bon Jovi - Living On a Prayer Wig Wam - In My Dreams Danger Danger - Don't Blame it on Love H.E.A.T - Beg Beg Beg
    • My Japan copy showed up today. I was critical of the Part I album as that one just did very little for me.  Basically, I just didn't think the songs were all that catchy and/or memorable.  I played that album a handful of times trying to get into it and gave up rather quickly which was disappointing as I loved Wired.  Maybe I just had too high of expectations or something.  I know many liked that album but for me at least, that Megalomanium I album would be ranked toward the bottom of their discography. Well, after hearing this new one, I'm feeling the opposite....Here I feel like they nailed it and I'm digging this one after the first listen.  I basically couldn't wait to start it over and listen again. The first 5 songs just come out guns a blazing with catchy, hook filled songs.  Yeah, we've heard 4 of those songs as singles but I almost purposely haven't listened to those songs much so they'd still sound fresh when the album dropped.  Then the one song we hadn't heard, All I Want, is just another upbeat, catchy tune. The 2nd half though is where things probably get more interesting.  Songs like Dive Into You and To Say Goodbye are the kinds of varied balladish/mid-tempo type songs I've been wanting Eclipse to mix things up with and there's 2 of those songs here, both very well done IMO.  Then there's a couple heavier tunes like Divide & Conquer and One In A Million that sound like stuff that could've been on Bleed & Scream.  And then a couple other melodic rockers with Until the War is Over and Pieces. I also feel like this has some of the better lyrics that Eclipse has had in awhile.  I think a lot of their material recently has been just been sort of lighter subject matter, 3 minute "simplistic" romps.  I felt Part I had a lot of that which kind of contributed to it being less interesting.  Here though, it seems like some of these songs get a bit deeper and can feel more emotion in songs like Still My Hero, Dive Into You and To Say Goodbye for example.   Anyways, where Part I is among my least favorite Eclipse albums, I'd say my early impression of Part II is that it'll be among my favorite Eclipse albums. 
    • New song 'Unbreakable'.    
    • Solid hard rock album. Nothing really stood out to me, but it’s solid.
