A good movie, should not be lost to how they watered down that pairing over the years

We're all also forgetting maybe his best role in The Happening.

The thing is Donnie is just too iconic. His role in The Sixth Sense blew my goddamn mind as a 12 year old. Years later it still brings me great joy. The guy was in the movie for like 2 minutes and he steals the thing.

I lump Saw 2 and Dead Silence together. These movies are fucking ridiculous but there's Donnie trying his best and playing it all straight. He's just got the IT factor. I enjoy watching him. Victim of his own success though I think, he's just not trying as hard as he used to. Coulda been an icon.

I appreciate the hell out of Spike. Not only is he an incredible actor but the guy is a fun actor too. He also support a lot of up and coming creators which is cool. Here's a guy who's made some of my favorite movies and at the same time he's hanging out and making stuff with the Jackass crew. Respect

Sick is a 2023 release and Samaritan blows

nepg · 03-09-2023, 03:44 AM

Yeah, Samaritan does blow. Reminded me of Kazaam.

fenikz · 03-10-2023, 01:33 AM

I forgot it existed but was independence day 2 any good?

Dr. Gonzo · 03-10-2023, 01:50 AM

No it's fucking awful but also not awful in a fun way

The Alex · 03-10-2023, 02:28 AM

I’ve heard the stuff with Judd Hirsch is hilarious but the rest just stinks.

Niel89 · 03-10-2023, 11:27 PM

It had a " : R------" which means it sucked.

Euphemism treadmill

The Alex · 03-12-2023, 06:15 PM

Everything Everywhere All At Once is a pretty good movie until the “lol so randumb XD” Reddit humor becomes exhausting with the hot dog fingers, butt plugs, googly eyes and all the other shit they throw at the wall. It becomes a mediocre Rick & Morty episode in the second half.

Brodie · 03-12-2023, 06:26 PM

To me it's perfectly fine/good but not great or anything. Better than the lesser movies nominated (Women Talking, All Quiet, Triangle of Sadness) but not close to the great ones (Tar, Fabelmans, Avatar, Top Gun).

fenikz · 03-12-2023, 06:52 PM

lol Top Gun was trash, that Jessica Beil jet movie is the equivalent

The Alex · 03-12-2023, 07:06 PM

Top Gun: Maverick is the best shot and cut blockbuster of the last 15 years. Every MCU movie looks like uninspired screensaver shit by comparison.

fenikz · 03-12-2023, 07:10 PM

none of them are good movies

The Alex · 03-12-2023, 07:16 PM

TG:M is probably the best sequel since Terminator 2. It’s the only one I can recall that exceeded the original by leaps and bounds. What didn’t you like about it?

Brent · 03-12-2023, 07:20 PM

I didnt like that it was blatant propaganda

The Alex · 03-12-2023, 07:23 PM

It’s a propaganda movie for how excellent Tom Cruise has become more than it is for the military. The movie makes it clear pilots are about to become a thing of the past too.
