It smells a bit like someone went "we need a young female Asian character" and picked the first character on the list.

As much as people talk about that scene, I think the follow up is so much better.

The way Fishburne delivers it is perfect.

It's probably been mentioned but Artemis Fowl drops the 12th

When I read the first book back in junior high it said soon to be a movie so it's about drat time

The movie doesn't look much like the first novel sadly.

Was that the second or third one? The second one was trash for sure, and I just wanna know if I can rightfully continue to snub the third one

The second one. The third one is actually decent.

The suits saw what happened with the New Mutants and decided not to risk making a promise they'd have to walk back.

I never thought I'd live to see the day *wipes a single tear away*

Is it known where the mythical additional hell footage was supposed to show up? Was it just going to be more in the video they see?

Because honestly, the length of that whole sequence is pretty much perfect as is. From the moment where we hear it start but only see the shocked reactions of two crew members, to the chaotic montage that makes you think even the movie thinks it's *wrong* to really show what is going on, to Fishburne's priceless reaction. More self-cannibalization or whatever is supposed to be there would kind of gently caress up the flow.

It's really easy to cross over from it being horrifying into just plain disgusting.

Red Planet has also aged like milk because everything about it just exudes “early 00’s try hard edgy sci-fi”. It also found a way to waste Terance Stamp by killing him off in the first half hour just so Kilmer and Sizemore can spout wooden dialogue to a bunch of nobodies.

Having watched it recently I got the feeling they got Stamp in the spacesuit and he just sat down and refused to do more work, because that's pretty much how he goes out in the film.

I'll never understand the gigantic hate boner some people have for that film.

Visually, there's an action sequence where some of the soldiers the Spartans fight are literal strawmen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0xSqLrG-ow

Christ the CGI blood looks horrendous.

but all of his movies are grandiose and up their own asses. he also probably can't get it up without reading the fountainhead beforehand and calls his wife "ayn" in bed

Wouldn't say that about his Dawn of the Dead.
