Man I really get Bruce Willis and Vin diesel confused

Bruce Willis is the one from die hard. Vin Deisel is the one from fast and furious

Because mark, Vin Diesel is the main guy in Babylon A.D., and I think hes a pretty good actor.

Bruce Willis > Vin Diesel

Vin Diesel isn't bad, but he isn't very good either.

I'd say he's just above average :/

That might explain it, I never saw Babylon A.D.

And who's an average actor to you amaz because vin diesel is below in my eyes.

I thought he was pretty good in fast and furious, even though those movies weren't that great they were pretty different (as in the culture of them with the asian's and such).
There was always some kind of interesting thing going on reguardless of how bad the acting was.

So in other words, he was in a good/interesting movie, but his acting was bad.
I dunno ill prolly edit this later when im less tired and make sense

I've really been into watching a ton of movies lately, so what are some of your favorite movies? Though I love comedy movies I'm not really wanting to watch them atm, so preferably something like science fiction/fantasy/action/adventure/drama.

The prestige, inception, planet of the apes 1 and 2, 12 monkeys, Gamer, uhm google the rest, but these for right now are pretty cool/good.

all nolan movies, most tarentino movies, umm Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Fight Club, the Departed, lotr, star wars, Indiana Jones, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, there are more amazing movies. I suck at making favorite lists.

The only favorite list I can make is directors and even that I can bring it down to 5 and then I have no order.
In no particular order
1. Martin Scorsese
2. David Fincher
3. Christopher Nolan
4. Steven Spielberg
5. Quentin Tarantino

YOU put planet of the apes 2 and gamer on the same list as planet of the apes 1 and inception
WTF is wrong with you
Wow, just wow, you need to be stabbed in the face with a rusty butter knife repeatedly, until your brain is less damaged then it is right now

Amaz, just because your a fan of 1 director doesnt mean you cant be a fan of anyone else

How did you come to that conclusion lol.
I just wanted to point out that I like Nolan's movies over Tarantino's. Just an opinion though.

You cant compare Nolan and Tarantino
Well, you can, but it would be stupid to do so
They have different styles and both are good at his style as the other is at his

I just realized you put gamer, do you really mean the one with Gerard Butler?

i thought gamer was decent, good idea but the movie itself wasnt the best

and the talk of bad/good actors i just have to say nicholas cage is the WORST actor of ALL time



anyone seen real steel yet?

Heh, I got to see reel steel a week before it came out.
But sadly the movie blew. There is so many things wrong with the movie I'm not going to bother naming them. It seems like the audience they were shooting for had no brain, oh well.

I'd give it a 5/10 - but I'd watch it ONCE because of all the cool graphics in it - and it is slighly funny (slighly).

Spoiler:

Gamer was terrible, how did that kid have control of the main character
I mean did the kid buy the rights to use him
How does this concept work as a video game, it doesnt make sense

Spoiler:

The only reason i kept watching to the end was because of Michael C. Hall, his scenes were the only good part of that movie
Especially this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQHPhIk5hoI

If you want a movie thats sort of like Gamer, but alot better, watch The Running Man
Gamer actually stole some stuff right from that movie


As for Nick cage
He has 3 settings
1. Disney
2. Cooky
3. Completely out of his mind insane

He sucks in setting 1 but is awesome in setting 3
Watch him in Face-Off, Adaptation, or Raising Arizona

You guys should watch Matchstickmen or Lord of War, i think you would change your opinion about nicolas cage.

"Pat: Gamer was terrible, how did that kid have control of the main character

Real Steel did the same thing Gamer did almost exactly....
except, gamer was a better movie lol. Reel Steal could almost be a fucking family movie...

But yeah, there was obvious holes on Gamer that I didn't like, but the concept they were shooting for was pretty cool, and like you said pat there were some good scenes lol

Nicolas Cage as an actor is pretty good, but he must be the worst at choosing movies.

this may just be my opinion but here i'm going to list all the movies ive seen nicholas cage in where i thought he acted badly (not that it was a bad movie, some were good except for his acting)

The Sorcerer's Apprentice
Kick-Ass
Knowing
all of the National Treasure movies
Next
Ghost Rider
The family man
gone in sixty seconds
hes also voiced in several animated movies which i found his voice acting to be sucky (g-force, the ant bully, astro boy)


i just watched horrible bosses and i would say it's a 7/10 it was mildly funny
(would probably be lower but, well, Jennifer Aniston.)

He was better in his older movies. I'm just saying that he's not garbage, but he's better then Vin Diesel

i liked gamer a lot
mostly because i didn't know anything about it going into it, so it was a really nice surprise
i should really stop watching any previews and just go to stuff other people think i'll like

also how did no one call pat out on his reaction to amaz?

oh yeah but this is about movies
i dont think anyones said any pixar movies
but everyone knows wall-e is the best pixar, with a runner up going to ratatouile (especially if you're high or just really hungry)
so i'll just go with pixar shorts
they're all really good but my favorites are
one man band and jackalope and the alien one

Never watched wall-e or ratatouille, but ever pixar movie is amazing, I'm actually looking forward to brave which is coming out next year.



It's a great teaser trailer

yah that looks good

i guess ill put this as well then

He was miscast for those roles, especially Ghost Rider
The character he played in Kick-Ass was as close to the role as he plays well, but it didnt work there because the character had a daughter
And even though he wasnt that great in them, the movie didnt suffer because he wasnt that great, like you said
He was mediocre in those

As for voice acting, most normal actors dont make good voice actors
Voice acting is alot different to get right then live action acting

Guys, just stop arguing. We all know Nick Cage is an awful, awful, actor.
