Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

yeah I enjoyed that one.
like many movies it was a while ago that I watched it
It's all implied.
Okay. Now you reminded me we need a third Hellboy film. A BPRD spin-off is acceptable, as well.
Yes. You might not like it if you didn't enjoy the first movie.
No. The first one is terribly mediocre at best, the second one is no better.
Cause every person who has made this claim has had a pretty terrible definition of "plot hole".

Heck, even the new Star Trek doesn't really have plot holes. It's just lazily written.
What do you mean by lazily written?
Things like
Orci and Kurtzman are not good writers.
Which is quite sad, really; there's a lot to admire in Gilliam's work, but in many of his films it all blends together into a loud, garish mess, like a dozen clowns honking their horns right next to your ears.
And I'm saying this as someone who loves Brazil and 12 Monkeys. (The latter may fare better because 1) it's not Gilliam's script and 2) madness is one of the film's themes, so when things go crazee, it supports the film to some extent.)
Okay. I haven't seen it since it came out. It was fun for a Star Trek movie, but there's the caveat.
I could not agree with this more. Gillium can't seem to stay out of his own way as a director... it's like his brain has absolutely no filter.
Also, saw Cabin in the Woods this weekend... hello new favorite "horror" movie ever. That thing was brilliant.
also that
As well as all that, much of my disdain comes from simply listening to the man talk about himself and his work. Smug doesn't even begin to cover it.
And god, his weird manner of speech just makes me want to tear my ears off.
Like, all of these things have to happen in order for it to be star trek, otherwise Kirk gets released from Starfleet in three weeks when a supply ship stops on the Ice Planet and Scotty dies alone.
Also yeah, the Romulans probably conquer the galaxy.

The kids could survive (along with Amy Acker, we only see her snake-grabbed, not killed; she would be essential for exposition), and start some sort of ritual to put the old gods to sleep again (presumably this ritual would involve fantasy tropes).
Or it might be that not all of the old gods are as entirely omnicidally evil as the facility guys said. The one that climbs out from the American facility might have other concerns (killing the other old gods, maybe?).
There are plenty of things they could do, but all of them would be very easy to mishandle and do badly.
Hellboy II is fantastic, and an enormous improvement over the first.
It deserves a better write-up than I have time to offer, but the sheer texture of the movie is something to behold. The movie pops with color and grit, and nearly its entire running time is filled with bizarre practical creatures and some very inventive uses of CGI (the blood of the forest God spreading fecundity to all it touches comes to mind).
This is a movie that loves monsters, good or evil. It celebrates them both in their physical realization and their emotional complexity (relative to the standards of most comic book films). And it has copious Jeffrey Tamboor.
This is a movie that never commits the sin of taking itself too seriously while still giving us a world and characters worth caring about. It's by far not the worst two hours you can spend with Ron Perlman.
That would be Alien: Ressurection. But yeah, Hellboy II was gorgeous, and actually a fun movie.
There were some serious plot problems near the end, but that didn't detract from the lush design and fantastic practical effects.
I still loved the movie, beautiful, great monster designs, everything about the Troll Market was fantastic. And I really liked the fight scenes, the bad guys weapon, the spear/sword thing was cool.

Surface area. Takes longer.

Actually "A wizard did it" would have been a ton better in this trek re-birth, just end it with old Spock talking to a hooded vulcan, then pan the camera to reveal a grinning John de Lancie.
That might be true for some of the other actors in Alien 4, but Perlman makes Ben Kingsley look picky.
EDIT: Both Perlman and Kingsley have done an Uwe Boll movie, now that I think of it. I've only seen one of them, so I'm not sure who was in the worst one.
'Get your fucking finger on the wookie'
My opinion of that:
Bloodrayne is terrible, but it's actually a fun movie if you're drunk. Alien: Ressurection provokes heavy drinking to cope. That's the difference.
One of the plot holes in Inception:
I got the impression that
And technically that's not how Limbo works. You go there if you use the dream machine in the third level, or if you die while sedated.
This guy gets it.
Withnail & I is one of my favorites, but it's not something you'd want to watch very often. Withnail's closing monologue makes me weep like a baby.
Edit: Also, I'm not the biggest fan of Hellboy 1, but Hellboy 2 is an enormous amount of fun. It's all action, monsters, and beautiful visual references to fantasy artists. It's for a very specific kind of moviegoer, though. If you're prone to flights of "oh man look at that!" then Hellboy 2 is your movie.
Nope.
*since this happens to him again at the end, Nero is potentially still raging around at some point in the timeline.
oh yeah...
I just meant inception not star trek.
Cobb's kids can't come with him to Europe because he is a fucking criminal on the run. Does that seem a good idea?
