she's a contortionist. she obviously has no neck bones, or maybe no spine.

plus i think she has been hanging out with them third world kids a little too much. i think that explains why her arms look like that.

when do you think she will get tired of playing lara croft in every movie she is in.

awww c'mon, a ridculous amount of shooting, over the top special FX and hot chicks, how bad could it be? Hell I'll watch it just for the "two handed gangsta jon woo inspired gun play"

Then again I really liked "shoot 'em up"

Ted Mathot of Rose & Isabel fame had an interesting post about this.

But Danny Elfman did the soundtrack and even sings on the main track.
Gotta love that!

ah ha ha ha!

this thread is good believe me.

the film however looks shocking. in fact it doesn't look real. the trailer looks like a bravia commercial and the the poster looks like a fan-made photoshop hack job.

speaking of which, have we all seen?

is the track a ska song, maybe a remake of one his old songs from the days of his ska band oingo boingo

i think thats what it was called.
he was frontman you know.


jesus christ that redband commercial made me not want to see it at all.

if that second greatest assassin just got capped like abitch in the grocery store. that isnt saying much about the first greatest assassin. i mean he got taken out by a girl.

hahaaaaaaaaa!! this movie hurts.

Okay...I had a problem enjoying this movie...

But still fuck ya'll for making me eat crow.

Thing is there are points in this movie where it absolutely delivers the awesome in spades. And there are too many of these sections that it can simply be thrown off as a fluke. Then suddenly, it switches back to generic action flick so quickly and abruptly, you'd think it was on purpose.

I hate this movie, not because it's bad (even though it kinda is) but because it kept toying with my expectations.

saw it this morning, and II definately enjoyed it a lot more than i expected it too, but jesus, it's SOOO over the top violent throughout that I started to become numb to it.

They do set you up immediately for what these people are capable of doing though, so I pretty quickly didn;t give a shit about how ridiculous the stuff I was watching was
