That had nothing to do with fanedit.org. Let me try again...

except replace the { and } with [ and ]
(1) The Godfather
(2) Its a classic aint it? And its hyped upto its butt cheeks.
(3) Sloooww. But i liked it.
(4) 7/10
Okay, I'll add my bit to the broth here:
(1) ONG BAK and ONG BAK 2
(2) friend got them on blu-ray on sale over at Best Buy; hadn't seen ONG BAK in a while and wanted to see it again (to see if it came out better than I remembered) and heard all sorts of crazy things about OB2.
(3) ONG BAK is pretty decent! Story is pretty typical for martial arts movie (main dude - Tony Jaa - lives in poor town, whose sankara.. er, buddha head is stolen. He must go into the Big City, find former friend and get him to help find said stolen Buddha head, which leads him to a crime kingpin who has been stealing and selling Thailand artifacts. Needless to say, ass-kicking ensues). The first time I saw it, it seemed that EVERY big scene with Tony Jaa doing some amazing stunt work did the POLICE STORY triple-take.. yet for some reason, I didn't mind it this time.
ONG BAK 2 though.. HOLY CRAP! The english dub is quite silly, as the Monty Python folks would say (yet somehow it still fits), but the movie is either crazy fantastic or crazy stupid, all depending on how you take your martial arts films. I would say this is the best film I've seen when it comes to really showing off various martial arts in action, where the fighting is deadly serious, fast and BRUTAL! Jesus Christ on a tap-dancing pogo stick is this movie brutal (and not in a SAW way)... you have to watch it just for the things Tony Jaa does. Plotwise it is again typically simplistic, but again, if you are a fan of martial arts movies you pretty much expect this.
PS: bit of trivia: apparently, Tony Jaa fired the director halfway through filming and took over the director chair himself... and then about 3 weeks later, Tony disappears! About 3 weeks after that, some of the crew found him in some remote Buddhist temple deep in the Thai jungle and had to be dragged back to finish the movie.
(4) overall, at least for me, I would give both about a good 7-8/10.

Wait, did you just give each a -1/10? ;-)
Godfather is overrated. As is Brando's performance in it.

That would be "7 to 8 out of 10"... "negative 1" (shakes head in disbelief at silliness)...
And V is no H:
how can anyone take you seriously when you post things like "WATERWORLD is better than MAD MAX because it doesn't have Mel Gibson in it"? Do I even need to get into that one?

Wait, did you just call me negative1? I demand
an immediate apology because I feel
that you have besmirched my good
name with your categorization of me
when you don't even know me.
Immediate apology, I say.
Later

Oh because I don't share your opinions I can't be taken seriously? That's pretty dumb. Are you a big Mel Gibson fan? If somebody's concerned about anti-Semitism they shouldn't watch Mel Gibson movies (considering what he said about Jews). There's also the issue of the portrayal of gays in Braveheart. Anti-semitism and homophobia are dangerous prejudices which everybody should be concerned about. I wouldn't watch a Mel Gibson film if you paid me. (That doesn't mean I didn't see Mel Gibson movies before he made his remarks about Jews. And I saw Mad Max. It wasn't impressive. Waterworld is a better film even apart from the Mel Gibson question.)

Actually, I am also one of Professor Frink's socks. We all are. Here in the off topic section, we are all just one individual with WAY too much time on his hands who spends all day having conversations with himself.... ;) <-------- ALL LIES!!!

I can't wait until Darth Solo sees what has become of his thread.

C3PX has already edited his post to include an admission that he's one of your socks, just around the same time I posted. He must have predicted what I was posting and decided to confirm it. Ok, so who isn't one of your socks?
Who is not my sock?
Me, of course.
BTW, PM sent, VINH.
Are you somebody's sock? Maybe you're my sock.
This is going to make my head explode lol.
Darth - I will actually be trying to watch a few movies in the next week or so and will post on-topic for once :-)

That would be... messy.
If your head asplodes, do the heads of all your socks (self included) likewise aspolde?

Asplodes? Does that mean your ass explodes? Scattering shit all around? Useful for fertilizing a garden.

That would be good, as thats what this topic is for.
Im trying to keep track of the rants but so far none of them have broken the 50 words or less rule. But i ment rants about filums.

That is incredibly misogynistic you snatch merkin! Not to mention the fact that "you" is spelled y-o-u, and that "u" by itself is merely a meaningless letter.
Oh no! Now my inbox is being filled with angry PMs form my other personalities for having confessed that we are all socks!
That is pretty funny that VINH had figured out that I am Fink before I even admitted it. Smart feller.
Okay, now let's just forget about this whole strange affair and get back to discussin' filums so that this thread can continue to do its jobbie.

I have to disagree with you there. Imho, Godfather one of the best movies ever made. It places 2nd in my list. Casablanca is 1st in my list. Brando is perfect in the role of Vito Corleone. Al Pacino also gives a great performance. All the actors in that movie do. You are of course entitled to your opinion. I'm curious, why do you believe it to be overrated?
As for Mel Gibson. I object to the things he said about Jewish people, but I try to judge his films on their own. As for gays in Braveheart, I didn't see anything wrong. The film takes place in the 1300s gays were much less acceptable, and prejudice against them and other minorities would be common.
