Scream 4

[BillyG]

I got the whole run down from Brittany. Fuck this sounds stupid.

[Martin]

Interest in seeing it: GONE.

[Ed Hocken]

Rocky Balboa is pretty good

I still think Stallone's best work was in Cop Land and First Blood.

[Martin]

And Rambo IV. Don't you forget that.

Stallone mowing down the enemy on the back of that technical is Oscar-worthy shit that makes Heath Ledger's Oscar look like a sad cold Happy Meal given to a hobo.




My God, it’s full of stars!

[V]

And yes...

A .50 BMG round will really do that much damage.

[Martin]

Such a beautiful scene. I went misty-eyed a little when I saw that scene.

[FilmNerdJamie]

Don't know how to put this. But it felt like Campbell, Cox and Arquette were playing the body-snatcher versions of Sidney, Gail and Dewey. There weren't any of their character traits here, and if it wasn't for the fact that it was the same three actors returning, I'd have sworn these were three different characters.

Also yes, Rocky Balboa is fucking great.

[Martin]

Your opinion of Rambo 4 please? This will help me judge your taste range to mine.

[FilmNerdJamie]

*Straightens tie*

Thought Rambo 4 was great as an all-out violent-as-all-fuck action film, and I'm generally not a fan of that franchise.

[Martin]

HIGH FIVE MOTHERFUCKER.

And I still like First Blood. The 3rd is a turd, and the 2nd's appeal was lost the day Rambo 4 came out.

To those that didn't enjoy the film: you just can't have any fun, right? I might even see it again in a couple days. The "cleverness" of the film some keep bringing up was more humorous to me than annoying. I didn't get the feeling that Craven/Williamson thought they were one step ahead of the audience. More like them winking at us.

My fave Stallone performance is still the first ROCKY.

Scream 4 fucking sucked. What a disappointment. Nothing in this movie worked. The opening bit was forced as fuck (and felt like it belonged in a 'Scary Movie' entry), the scares were non existant (except for a fake scare involving a truck, I jumped at that), the main actress was horrible as fuck, the kills all felt like the MPAA took out the best parts, and even Dewey couldn't save this.

[Abraham Smashington]

Ahem.



But that's cool news. I expected garbage like the 3rd movie. I'll rent Scream 4 simply based on your recommendation!

Also, this needs to come back...

I remember one thing that I was a fan of, the main nerd reminded me of Randall. The whole movie I kept waiting for Hocken to show up and then get stabbed in the v-neck. It never happened.

So I'm now officially the ONLY person here that loved this film. Rob, I was rooting for you to love this film as much as I did. Would you put this on par with SCREAM 3? I can't stand that film.

Here's my ranking:

SCREAM **** 1/2
SCREAM 2 ****
SCREAM 4 *** 1/2
SCREAM 3 **
