Cabin in the Woods = Weirdest Movie Ever


Spoiler

Got curious by the comment and watched it. It was popcorn fun but I wouldn't call it weird. It's simply evil corporation + haunted cabin with a potpourri finale which was quite predictable (yet, still quite fun). The biggest flaw was of course, the existence of a big red button that let all the hellish creatures into every corner of the corporation. Why? The Ten Little Indians type of twist in the middle was well-put.

Man of Steel, someone already? Found it very meh, the guy is hot and well muscled but no charisma as Reeves had. Lois is the chick next door, nothing special. A lot of shortcuts and weird scenes (visit church and priest before final battle) but a lot of action/translate = computer effects.

It's not easy to match Reeves I quite liked the movie and the way they set it apart from the previous ones. It is quite a reasonable approach all things concerned.

Like the scene (SPOILER!) where Jor El, a holographic image, is raising his holographic fist and crushes real flesh Kryptonians under some objects?

That was awesome, even my popcorn cringed.

It's a reference to the Jesus in the Garden story, when he struggles with whether to give in and be our savior. The scene is  depicted on the stained glass in the background. Jesus is even wearing a red robe that resembles Superman's cape.

The movie is full of such parallels (Clark's age, crucifixion pose etc). Truth be told, Superman was more of a Moses figure (created by two Jewish kids) but later writers introduced a lot of Christian themes as well (e.g. Death and Return).

Olympus has fallen, with Red Butler copying Mclane. Absolutely excellent, is somehow a remake of Die Hard. It defies any logical gravity but pure adrenaline from start to end. The koreans invasion of the White House is a gem.

you know what a great horror movie is? piranha 3-d. if you are a fan of the original piranha, jaws, sexy porn stars, campy fun, or gore, then this movie is for you.

there is a scene in piranha 3-d, that raises to the level of art. i'm speaking, of course, of the underwater nude duo scene. my god. perfection CAN be achieved through american cinema. not to mention, 'ol dude in the beginning, alluding to his part in the movie "jaws". this movie is an instant classic. two thumbs, way up!

just watched the new superman movie. i gotta say, i like it better than all the ones prior to it. gods fighting gods, special effects that didn't even come close to sucking...

:SPOILER ALERT:
yeah, the guy who played superman can't act his way out of a paper bag, in fact, a lot of the acting isn't what you'd expect from people where their world was going to be destroyed, etc. but then, the acting in all the previous movies didn't really match up to, say, breaking bad, or dexter, for that matter. neither does this movie. but, if i want acting, i'll watch a drama. i want "action" in an action movie, and in this, this movie certainly delivered. i was more than pleasantly surprised at the storyline as well, and how it set it's own little mark in the sand.

the only thing that i can really say bothered me about the movie, is that the main villain didn't immediately kill those people near his death. he had all the time in the world, i mean, all he had to do was turn his eyes, and incinerate the people. and yet, he lingered on, like when a villain stops in killing the hero, to tell him ALL ABOUT his "master plan". that was the only part of the movie that i couldn't believe. it just didn't make sense. it was like he was DARING superman to kill him, or something, which would go against his whole "i'm going to obliterate everyone and everything you love before i rape your face with my fist, superman". i mean, if you're going to do something you say you will, do it. if superman has you in a choke-hold, you don't "let superman watch as you SLOWLY torch those he cares for". so yeah, that flaw bothered me.

the rest was fun. LOTS of fun. goddamn, that machine? yeah. sucks to be near THAT mother. heh.
