What Emmanuelle Movie Did You Just Watch?

[Matt]

holy shit, Ben. That's awesome.

Just got through Star Trek III, this is pretty good. I had no idea Christopher Lloyd played the bad guy. Plus, Miguel Ferrera in a nonspeaking role.

always pleased to see the cult of 'Star Trek III' grow by another member. It's my favorite ST film (with Star Trek II' coming in a very, VERY close second).

I love you.

[Abraham Smashington]

How can people put ST III before ST II? It boggles my mind grapes.

Caught some of Other People's Money this morning before work. DeVito fucking rules and we get Penelope Ann Miller in all her hotness. YUM!

Watched Star Trek I for about 20 minutes, couldn't finish it. The 8 minute Captain Kirk flying around the enterprise in a shuttle scene just fucking killed me. Seriously, when the original series ended, there was nothing said about Kirk having to give up the Enterprise. It only gets introduced in the first movie that this is something that happened and something Kirk isn't happy about. Where is the fucking gravitas necessary to justify an 8 minute fucking "Wow, it sure is good to see the old girl again!" homage scene?!?!?!?!

I confess that I did enjoy the outfits. Short skirt-like things for the win! Also, I enjoyed the forced attempts at crew diversity. When Kirk is lecturing them on how important the mission is, you see two First Nations dudes in the audience, complete with FULL neck and head regalia. Scotty even has a black engineer dude with him! THE FUTURE IS BENNETON!

Unless I'm very mistaken, a big part of that 8 minute fly-around scene was to show off all of the changes to the Enterprise. Remember, it had totally been refitted/redesigned for the movie. I saw it in the theater when I was like 9, so I honestly don't remember seeing the trekkies oooohing and aaaaaahing over the minute changes to the physical structure of the Enterprise (oooh! look at the new nacelles!!!), but I AM told that they were there.

There's no way it needed to be that long just to show you something that looks almost exactly the same as the original ship (except more shiny). MASTURBATORY I TELLS YA!!

[Matt]

Oh, I agree 100%. That scene was made specifically for the FF button.

[V]

"Fanboy Fap" button?

[Shit Dickface]

the FFFFFFFFFF button

[Ed Hocken]

I'd agree, from what I hear Star Trek I is tough to get through, mainly due to extended scenes of nothing happening.

[Abraham Smashington]

I'm still amazed that people rank ST III over ST II.

[Ed Hocken]

ST II through IV is basically one giant movie.

But II was way better than III, although III wasn't too shabby.

[Abraham Smashington]

But the quality took a hit IMO. I thought 3 was a bit tough to get through coming off of II. I mean, there were definitely some great parts in 3, but 2 is just perfect IMO.

[Ed Hocken]

I agree, II also has the rare nature of a sequel improving on a film.

Especially since the first one was so flawed.
