    Spider-Man 3, Superman Returns, & Iron Man 2 all had potential but didn't deliver but I think Superman Returns had to be the worst out of all 3. SM3 would have been straight if Sony wouldn't have force Sam Raimi to put 3 villains in one movie. They should had either went with Sandman/New Goblin or Venom/Sandman and saved new Goblin for SM4 instead the whole series is rebooted.

    Superman Returns is the worst b/c the dude that directed the first 2 X-Men movies could have completely went with a whole new story but instead they try to rehash the ideas from Superman & Superman II and try to make a new movie out of it and then Lex Luthor is the main villain (as in all Superman films) then they try to add include a kid in the movie which is suppose to be Lois/Clark's kid that they conceived from Superman II and well....what was the point? Then Superman is in the hospital? seriously? I just hope they don't fuck the reboot up.

    IMII just didn't have a good plot and lack of serious direction that would lead into Iron Man III.

    Captain America wasn't bad at all imo if there was any problems that I had with the movie it would be that it started off slow as hell but the action started to pick up around the middle of the movie. Thor was kind of like that but it wasn't as slow as Captain America was though.

    Scream 4 I just took it for what it was....and I ain't have nothing to do that weekend so I said I'll go see it but I'm not going to see a 5th installment.

    I gotta co-sign Spiderman 3, Fighting, GI Joe, Thor, and both Ironman movies, last Airbender, Street Fighter(all of them) and Hancock but no-sign Fast Five, Ninja Assassin and Captain America.

    Spiderman 3 should have just went with Venom and maybe even Venom alone, he's iconic enough to carry a movie by himself, Ironman mocies needed a villain, Thor needed more action and less of him losing his powers, last Airbender needed a new director, and Street Fighter needed better effects, fighting, different actors and a different storyline. And Hancock should have just stayed comedy and it would've been fine.

    GI Joe and Fighting needed different damn near everything from cast, to storyline/plot, to ending, etc. Both were damn near the worst movies ever, along with the Village, which had infinite potential till that dumb ass twist came at the end.
    Ninja Assassin was a good movie, mad action, blood, bad ass ninjas and not too long like most films nowadays. Capt America was the GOAT comic book movie besides Watchmen, and Fast Five was damn near perfect with no flaws.

    Other movies with potential are Xmen Origins: Wolverine - it was just fucked up storyline wise and every character but Wolverine was misrepresented,

    Xmen 3: Last Stand - same as Origins to an extent, the storyline was wack, characters were misrepresented, the whole shit was wack,

    Expendables - the storyline wasn't even as good as the trailer's the characters besides Stallone and Statham weren't used and fleshed out, action wasn't as good as it should have been, some of the cast shouldn't hav ebeen there, and then Couture randomly shows up and kills Stone Cold on some bullshit. It was just all bad.

    lol, when does a Spike Lee movie just flows? especially one of this nature...

    Avatar was one. Good story but man, M.Night directed horribly. And the script felt so cookie cutter...Hopefully that's redone

    The american remake of Let The Right One In...the swiss version is so much better..

    Fast 5: shit was a horror movie, it was that horrible...

    The Green Hornet

    The Eagle: who the fuck actually thought of that horseshit...


    UGH M night didnt have anything to do with avatar bro

    I guess I oughtta mention some...

    Ugh first off Robert Pattinson shouldn't be the lead of anything but he was acceptable I guess, the movie builds up almost partly like a shakespearian play where you expect a wild ending where things are gonna heat off but without saying too much the build up is not far as interesting as the actual payoff

    postr_l.jpg

    A plot that involves 2 brothers on 2 sides of the law starring big name actors like Wahlberg and Phoenix should be edgeofyourseats thrills but it really isn't, it's rather dull

    The first hour had a solid build up I really enjoyed the first hour, the revelations and twists in the end though just failed epically though

    they did fuck up big time with Spider Man

    id even say they shoulda had it just about the other villians and at the end of the movie they shoulda had the scene when nigga from 70's show transforms into him

    *growls*

    *camera gets closer*

    Venom2.jpg

    *credits roll*

    niggas would be already lined up for Spiderman 4 they woulnt have had to reboot

    thoughts of what could have been: if them joints weren't a damn woverine-fest. And had more than one main villain. And had the team working together the way they're supposed to. And etc etc etc

    How could you all forget the most dissappointing video game film EVER:

    MV5BNDc3OTQ1OTkwNV5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwMzUzOTUxMQ@@._V1._SY317_CR5,0,214,317_.jpg

    My soul was fucked up watching this abomination in the movie back in '93. I still to this day wanna drop kick Anthony Hopkins and John Legizano for this shit. And no one has ANY plans on remaking this, huh?

    Turrible.
