I'm so, so skeered of the Highlander V rumors.

and I didn't even hate IV.
If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
BUT THERE WAS A MEMO!
Also, all the chickfighting was appalling. I used up my suspension of disbelief on Buffy.

I believe vampires are the world's greatest golfers
Okay, I've worked very hard to eradicate all traces of Event Horizon from my memory so everyone can just stop talking about it RIGHT NOW.

Conservative, n. A statesman who is enamored of existing evils, as distinguished from the Liberal, who wishes to replace them with others. -Bierce
I have no particular bile for anderson, but if you can hunt down the original script for soldier, you may decide that anderson's soldier does suck. My old link is dead, but I recall a western in space/what starship troopers should have been kind of deal.
Of course, this may be one of those times when my memory decides that what actually happened was dull, so it invents something more exciting for me.
Oh, and I also saw milla's band once, and think she probably is genuine euro-crazy. She did marry Luc Besson after all.

Okay, Resident Evil lovers, why??
Nutty, did you miss the part where I mentioned I'm a giant fan of the video games?
This is one of those my-love-of-this-movie -has-nothing-to-do -with-anything-rational-or-any-normal -movie-judging-criteria -of-any-kind things.

I do hate the carefree-woman-liberates-stuffy-man genre
My least favorite is Crazy Person Is Saner Than The Rest Of Us.
Hmm. I mostly agree, and yet, one of my very favorite movies is Harold and Maude, which could arguably fit into both categories.
Resident Evil, well, it didn't suck as much as I expected it to! But there is much I will forgive for Milla. Probably too much. She and Kate Winslet tip my Kinsey scale, ooh baby. And her album's pretty good too--she has a kind of Kate Bush-esque thing going on.
Okay, and having asked about The Apple over in F2F, I have now read Jess's description and oh! I must see this movie.

Well, also, I hate Milla Jovovich with the passion of a thousand fiery clambakes.
I can understand indifference to, or not really caring for, but how in the hell could she ever inspire that much hatred?
Of course, I've heard her album, and she does have a damn fine singing voice; very Kate Bush, actually. So I may be pro-biased. The fact that she pulls the crazy while singing? Just icing.
Event Horizon was a great concept (i.e. Solaris as a horror movie), but then they just made an outer space Hellraiser out of it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Three words -- The Fifth Element.
Sean, your hyphenated enthusiasm is making the board scrolly.

Two words -- Bruce Willis.
Two more -- Chris Tucker.
I had no hate left over.
