I loved the imagery and the composition of
Signs
and the characters and their relationships and I always get happy chills when they're on the car and they all connect and the signal comes clear.
My very devout friend hated the movie for what it said about God, but suprisingly, what she hated even more was that they didn't use machine guns or rocket launchers to
kill the aliens ded.
Which tickles me to no end cuz she hates action movies and violence for entertainment. And I think this is what peeved many people as well. I have heard many a "WTF?! A
baseball bat?!"
.
And I loved that simplicity and counterintuitiveness.
I'm mildly not happy about Burton doing Dark Shadows, if only because I'd heard Alice in Wonderland was his next.
Isn't the Judge Dredd/Demolition Man discussion, buffista conversation topic #256? If so, I think this requires an obligatory Last Kiss Goodnight shout out.
Unless one of his future efforts relies on Ben Browder exercising naked as a plot point I don't foresee ever spending money on another ticket.
Only if the twist is that he's one of a series of naked Ben Browder clones.
Come *ON*. Liking
Waterworld
is my big movie sin?
Not more than a month ago, I confessed to having an immense love for the immensely stupid The Last Samurai in this very thread. And I'm being mocked for liking
Waterworld?
I like
Spies Like Us,
for crying out loud....
I like Waterworld! Enough that I sat through the water show at Universal three times and thought it made a nice story!
what she hated even more was that they didn't use machine guns or rocket launchers
But all they needed was
garden hoses...
Aims and I will be over here, watching Waterworld.

Best. Twist. EVAR.

I'm greedy, I want Burton to do both. But in JilliLand, vampires trump mad tea parties. However combining the two would be perfect.
