Applesauce
Boom! Bitch-slapped!
I'm going to watch this for the Sunday matinee. Cheaper tickets and the theater isn't crawling with kids, Hoo-rah.

Speevy said:More to the point, what's the probability that an undiscovered screenwriter gets his script approved to star two Oscar winning actors, and then it becomes the #1 movie in America?
If that happened to me, I would be happy with a 1% on www.rottentomatoes.com
I honestly wouldn't care if the critics told me my movie would need to be 100x greater to even reach the heights of Uwe Boll.
This kinda luck only happens on Entourage.

The few instances of him picking up on things whilst not blind kinda bother me.
The BIGGEST one of all is how he picks up on Martha & George eating people. I'd totally accept that he could figure it out on audio cues alone -- she IS shaking with the tea set however, but it's not until several minutes later when he.... sees graves?! (wtf) that he figures out their going to be on the menu? Why not book it when he hears ol' jitters coming with the drinks?
Jason's Ultimatum said:Evilore. You're right. The ending with Mila was very LOL-worthy. A bit cheap if you ask me.
You haven't even watched the movie yet. Just post a hatergonnahate.gif and let it goBobFromPikeCreek said:I'd comment on EviLore's post, but my jaw hurts and I don't feel like committing myself to sucking him off.
Flynn said:I bet EvilLore's parents HATED reading him bedtime stories.
WanderingWind said:...are you saying the movie was meant for children? That's cold, man.
lsslave said::lol :lol You got a genuine real laugh out of me :lol :lol
I largely think (though may be wrong) EviLore is playing up the anti-hype for GAF. I can't see anyone genuinely pick apart a movie's plot holes that much (albeit I wonder if he missed little details that explained some of them, and cut content wouldn't help either... thank god for deleted scenes :lol )
Seth C said:It's EviLore's schtick so I wouldn't be surprised. that said, the ending should not have been put to film. Seemed like a lame way to prep for a sequel for a movie that doesn't need one.
Snowman Prophet of Doom said:I liked the way that the film was made (the look, the music, the fight choreography, the shots, etc.), but I could not buy into the twist at all. I also noticed some of what EvilLore noticed regarding the ambiguous nature of food (and survival in general) in the wasteland. It's worth a watch because of how fucking cool it is, but it does kind of fall apart when you dig a little deeper.
lsslave said:If you go too deep you lose the audience though. You have to make a movie entertaining, just like games have to be fun. They could have spent the extra time really explaining every single detail but it would have dragged out, sometimes you just have to let things go.
The argument I have with GI Joe and Transformers movies are epic with my friends about how they dig too deep into movies based on 30 minute commercials for toys :lol
Snowman Prophet of Doom said:I can forgive some things not being explained, but there are too many instances (especially in light of the twist) that don't really make any sense. 'Faith' or 'God told him' just seems lazy to me.
Baker said:Being a close-minded atheist, I thought the movie was great and the plot weak. I kept looking for some deeper meaning, but I stopped after hearing my fellow midwesterners converse over "how great a message about the power of Christ" the movie was while in the bathroom afterward.
I watched zero trailers and read nothing, so I had no idea this movie was about the Bible. :lol
lsslave said:You know its funny, I have found no pro-religion message in the movie. It seems to show the corruption it causes just as quickly as far as I can tell.
Seth C said:Exactly as I said in an earlier post. The movie presents both the positive and negative influences of Christianity/religion and in the end, the Bible itself is no more important than any other book, except to Eli.
SpeedingUptoStop said:On the same note -How did Eli get out of his room in Carnegie's place? The black guard said he had no idea, he was there the whole night, then he got shot. How did Eli get out?
ezekial45 said:Who was the guy loading the shotgun when the townsfolk were trashing the bar? Was he just some guy waiting to kill Carnegie?
ezekial45 said:How the hell did Solara get out of the cave? It really bugged me just showing her walking down the highway like a minute later as if nothing happened.
DanielPlainview said:It kinda looked like he was going to kill himself because everything was fucked up.[/spoiler]
Already answered.
