I wasn't at all angry at the "Ghosts Of Girlfriends' Past" over "Origins: Wolverine" thing, mostly because I saw "GOGP" as just another rehashing of "A Christmas Carol", and we all know how much Hollywood LOVES public domain material (they can rehash it every ten years ... or every 6 months!). I'll take a bad comic book movie over Hollywood reaching into it's bag of public domain tricks for the millionth time. For example: this year, I'd gladly see "X-Men: First Class" over the 10 billionth adaptation of "The Three Musketeers", but that's just me.
 
As for RT, I don't care if 50% is considered "fresh", as far as I'm concerned, anything at 50% or below is up for Razzie grabs!

For May 1, 2009, how angry were you that Ghosts of Girlfriends Past got a forum here instead of Origins: Wolverine?
 
And on jumping ahead, if the reviews are below 15% approval, it's a shoe-in for something. For movies whose names everyone knows, if they get below 30% approval, it's usually a shoe-in for something, and if it gets a forum here, that 30% jumps to about 50%. Which is why I'm hoping On Stranger Tides won't get a forum here under current circumstances.

First of all, as much as I would like to cosider them separate series, the truth of the matter is that they are prequels, and they are part of the chronological events of the overall series, unlike reboots like Nolan's Batman movies or the upcoming Spider-Man reboot. Secondly, based on the order that they were filmed and released, they are the fourth installments of the series.

That's fine until it gets nominated without deserving it simply because the voters knew its name. Drive Angry 3D was one thing. Less than half as many people knew about it. I still remember At World's End, Book of Secrets, and Transformers 1 (I only dislike Revenge of the Fallen). There were many worse movies released in 2007 that deserved nominations, including Alvin & the Chipmunks, Georgia Rule, Delta Farce, Resident Evil: Extinction, The Seeker: The Dark is Rising, The Comebacks, and even Saw IV. For all I know, On Stranger Tides, Scream 4, and Drive Angry 3D could rob a deserving movie like Just Go With It or Red Riding Hood of a nomination, and it wouldn't reflect the worst the film industry had to offer this year.]]> Sat, 14 May 2011 15:51:42 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4266&PID=41680#41680 YO, HO...HEAVE HO??!?!? : The reason whythis moviewould... http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4266&PID=41679#41679 Author: Michaels

The reason why this movie would be Razzie worthy is because of descending quality of the series in the past. The original movie was great, with a developed story, likable characters, and clever dialogue, but then the sequels were painful because all they did was rely on rehashing scenes and lines from the first movie ... and also using a metric-ton of CGI. If they were already falling back on the original movie by the time of the FIRST sequel, what are they going to do with this THIRD sequel? Plus, there's the ever haunting "curse of the fourth installment of the movie series", usually resulting with the worst installment of the series, ie. "Batman & Robin", "Star Wars: Phantom Menace", "X-Men Origins: Wolverine", "Indiana Jones 4", etc. In my opinion, this movie is worthy of its own forum. The worst that can happen is that we're proven wrong, it'll be among the 1 out of 10 times that the Razzies are wrong in choosing a Worst Movie of the Weak. ]]> Sat, 14 May 2011 14:04:31 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4266&PID=41679#41679 YO, HO...HEAVE HO??!?!? : I say no.

Berrynoia, You know that the IMDB-rating is worthless, mostly because the film hasn't been officially released yet and a lot of fans of the series probably gave it a ten without even seeing the movie yet.

But i'll probebly see this one on the big screen just like i did with the previous Pirates-films.

I can't join the hate bandwagon for Pirates Four...well at least not yet.  I liked the movies, despite the latter's flaws, and need to wait and see if this new one will work out or truly nuke the fridge like Indy 4 did.

The IMDB users give At World's End a 7.0, which is lower than the other two PotC films, but still respectable.

And don't get started with my father.  He is an addict.  He frequently says "Thank you, Jack" in common situations, to the point it gets on my nerves, and "Aye, That be True" among other things.  Yeah, he's obsessed.  He probably will want to pay to see "On Stranger Tides" on an IMAX screen.

I also am aware of the hate.  I remember the Simpsons episode "Apocalypse Cow" having Bart driving a combine harvester.  He drives over straw, making bales of straw.  He drives over water, making bales of water (which splash out). He drives over manure, and makes bales of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" DVDs.

Still, I will keep watch, from RT and IMDB.  I want to see how this plays out.

Actually, I think around the time of the second or third movie, they changed the ride so that it follows Jack Sparrow and a story that's closer to what's in the movies. So I guess you'll have to take the ride for a 5th time, saturnwatcher.
 
But yeah, I don't know how you could get four movies out of a 15 minute ride with no storyline outside of a dog holding the keys to a jail cell and voices saying "dead men tell no tales".
