I guess she just really hates guards doing their jobs.

Perhaps.

It was still a good movie.

Doesn't matter. She isn't the "I'm not going to kill anyone" wimp that Superman is. :lol

WW is one of my favorites of the DTVs. Probably just missed my top five at this point.

On the contrary, I think it shows a greater moral strength to have the power to kill your enemies and to choose not to do so. I prefer my superheroes to seek an alternative route for justice.

A movie review podcast that I highly enjoy reviewed those films a year or two ago, and they had something interesting to say. There was no CGI for the alien in Alien 3 (except maybe for the climax when it died). So that terrible CGI is actually terrible, HORRIBLE greenscreening of a puppet or suit.

(From wikipedia: The Alien is portrayed by both Woodruff, Jr. in a suit and a rod puppet filmed against bluescreen and optically composited into the live-action footage, with the rods removed by rotoscoping.)

Sad that they made practical effects look worse than terrible CGI.

Yeah, I already realized my typo but never fixed it here. It still looks terrible no matter how you slice it though.

Anyway,

Alien Resurrection - WTF was I think when I decided to rewatch this piece of garbage? It is stupid, way too cheap looking (the CGI aliens are bad, really bad), it gives the ending to Alien 3 the middle finger, and the movie just gets worse as it goes on. This is an insult to not only the entire franchise, but an insult to HR Giger and O'Bannon as it just spat over everything they did. There is absolutely no reason for Ripley to be in this thing and the cast are as bright as coal. I give this **** stain a 2/10 and that is for Ron Perlman. Oh, and that human Xenomorph is one of the worst abominations to come out of the franchise until the PredAlien.

Trans4Mers: Age of Extinction-

This actually might be the best live-action Transformers film to date. It does repeat some of its predecessors' flaws (goes on too long, too many human substories, high-octane action makes it hard to focus on what's happening where, incredibly unique robot designs) but things have improved a lot now. For starters, these humans are actually WORTH SPENDING TIME WITH. Mark Wahlberg is a great improvement over Shia LaBeef's relationship shitfest, and Kelsey Grammar is a great evil side character.

The robot redesigns are pretty good & we get to spend enough time with them all to make each character close to memorable. Although some fans of the Dinobots might be disappointed a bit.

8 out of 10.

That's reassuring. I was going to see AOE anyway but now I've got further motivation to see it in theaters. BRING ON THE DINOS! :D

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times, oh god dammit!! Foul me four... FUCK YOU I'M NOT FALLING FOR IT AGAIN!!!

And the fact the movie only has one Decepticon is utter bullshit. He better have the best character development ever!!

I'm especially not going to see it (or TMNT) after this: http://www.thewrap.com/transformers-...el-bay-haters/

Transformers: Age of Extinction... I loved it. Objectively speaking, it's a terrible movie. The story is a bit of a jumbled mess, the Autobots are a bit more savage than I would have anticipated, and continuity with the previous movies is tenuous at best. For what we got, though, it was awesome. I found the protagonists to be engaging and likable, the villains were marvelous, and their interactions were entertaining. Stanley Tucci's character was an absolute joy.

I also liked the relationship and friendship between Cade (Mark Wahlberg's character) and Optimus. If you have a problem with this Optimus's savagery, this movie does justify it by having him be angry with the way that humans have been hunting Autobots and harvesting the metal making them for scientific purposes, but he's a bit psychotic. Bumblebee also gets some great character moments.

But you don't watch this movie for the human element. They might not show up until the final act, but you watch this movie for this reason:

MOTHER.

#@$%ING.

DINOBOTS!!

THOSE GUYS ARE OFF THE HOOK! IT'S LIKE MY CHILDHOOD CAME BACK TO LIFE, HIT PUBERTY, SINGLE-HANDEDLY DEFEATED AN ARMY OF ZOMBIE-NINJA NAZIS RIDING LASER-SHARKS, THEN DECIDED, "Screw it; I'm gonna be a legion of dinosaur robots," AND THEN DID!

*Eh-hm.*

My only gripe with the Dinobots was that they never spoke. I kept waiting for Grimlock to say, "Me Grimlock no bozo. Me Grimlock KING!" But, still.

MOTHER.

#@$%ING.

DINOBOTS!!
