    Also Monster Hunter bows are more like shotguns

    Bows are like bows, bowguns are shotguns

    Bowguns tend to have greater range on many of their shots, comparitively

    The optimal range for bows is actually fairly short, to say nothing of the three arrow shots

    EDIT: I should clarify that the original comment was in reply to the idea that the bow is a long range weapon

    In the end a work should be judged by the question “Did it do what it set out to do?”.

    If there are monsters and they are hunted it is a success in my eyes. This is why Dog Soldiers is a cinematic masterpiece.

    I agree that Dog Soldiers is excellent.

    But intent does not equal quality. That would make Robert Rodriguez the finest movie maker ever (he isn't).

    Does Monster Hunter have laser grids?

    If not, what is the closest thing it has to a laser grid?

    Honestly I'm down for Milla Jovovich with a bigass sword

    Like I love MonHun, but to make a movie ACCURATE to the games would be dull as shit

    just give me Jovovich/Jaa tearing some monsters the fuck up

    also Ron Perlman's in it too!

    Paul WS Anderson's The Three Musketeers is my favorite version of that story.

    With no sense of irony, I love that film.

    1. the paul ws anderson movie
    2. the disney movie
    3. the bbc show where they are basically just loose cannon cops with swords

    because there is guaranteed to be cool shit

    He's falling behind on the wife/director chart, though.

    Len Wiseman (Kate Beckinsale's new man): It's fine, you can totally run on a piece of wood being dragged behind a moving car. It'll look better than CGI!

    Michael Sheen (Kate Beckinsale's former man); It seems kinda dangerous though?

    Len Wiseman (Kate Beckinsale's new man): Fucking dance, monkey. Camera? Rolling!

    Kickboxer 2 is bananas crazy!

    So Tong Po killed JCVD after Kickboxer 1 (with a gun) and uh, because of that he can't regain Thailand's honor (which was lost after JCVD beat him in the ancient ways).

    So the Thailand Kickboxing Mafia arranges to fight David Sloan (JCVDs little brother) to regain Thailand's honor...which again only involved David because Tong Po murdered JCVD.

    Honor is wild, y'all.

    I really wish I liked those stupid Resident Evil movies but I've had fun with various other Anderson projects and I appreciate his commitment to making his wife look badass

    I've certainly watched plenty of garbage for Jovovich's sake alone
