2012?

Is it a must see movie?

[Fire Walk With Me]

1. For mind-numbing action, yes. For science and high standards of script and acting, no.

Have fun but don't expect more than that. It begins with the implausible and goes from there.

Also, I was wondering how the Tibetan monk knew the Japanese Zen story of "you must first empty your cup...". Very well-read, those Himalayan recluses :rofl:

4. We need a master thread of goofs listing all the unlikely or impossible plot points.

2. 2000 and 2004 were horrid movies. I can't imagine 2012...

President elect Palin and VP Elect Beck.

:scared:

3. Special effects are great other than that stay home n/t

5. The plot was deifinetely lost there, but the SFX was good.

I was surprised to see AN-225 (In the movie, it was AN-500 (fictional)) in the movie. I checked info and it said it's a CGI rendering one - I thought it was the real thing.

6. John Cusak

is enough for me

[Fire Walk With Me]

8. You know, that's truly usually the case.

I hope that someone gets a few great scripts to him, to offset this one.

Did you see his recent film (last couple of years) in which he plays the father of a family that has just lost its mother to action in Iraq? Brilliant.

10. sounds interesting - what is it called?

I'm sorry I missed it.

Did you see him in Fat Man & Little Boy? Wow.

11. I don't remember! It was a little indie film with a big punch.

No, I haven't seen that but I'll add it to my list! Thanks.

7. It's pure escapist fun

It made me almost nostalgic for the disaster films of the 70's, before the trend went overboard.

9. Nope!

But it's a fun way to spend a couple of hours if you like action flicks: Start to finish this movie is nothing BUT that.


I enjoyed it!

12. is there any gartuitous nudity or a shower scene?

"we don't have much time! Quick, let's take a shower NOW!"

[Hawkeye-X]

13. Nope. the only thing close was

some leg.

That's it..

[Mutley]

14. For mindless action and cool FX, it's great.

Don't go in expecting more than that and you will be happy.
