I think I'm one of the rare few who liked Hellboy and gawddemmit Punisher (the recent one) wasn't that bad either. Still, if they'd make a Punisher movie properly and just let Garth fucking Ennis write the damn script, it'd easily become an action classic.
How appropriate. You fight like a cow.

I liked Hellboy. The new Punisher had a couple good parts, but otherwise I thought it was pretty lame.

Um... I just accidently rented The Punisher (remake or new version or whatever you like to call it) and really made me laugh... not with it but at it... I was just constantly asking myself were on earth they found all the out-of-the-ordinary bad actors?!?! The best effort/talent (in terms of acting) was displayed by the bodybuilder that played 'The Russian'.
After that movie, I also realised how bad of an actor John Travolta is/has become... Even Dolph Lundgren showed better acting skills in the 1987 version of Punisher... besides, in that movie The Punisher lived in the sewers which is alot more hardcore... yeah!
There are no 'knowns'. There are thing we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know. So when we do the best we can and we pull all this information together, and we then say well that's basically what we see as the situation, that is really only the known knowns and the known unknowns. And each year, we discover a few more of those unknown unknowns.

Conan and Rambo both got a really bad rep for a long time. They both kind of became synonymous with mindless action movies with ridiculous body counts. The sequels are trash, but the originals and the books they're based on are nothing but. Throw Rocky into the mix to.
The sequels completely destroyed the reps of those movies.

Dune was considered the Waterworld of it's day I think, but damn I don't think I've seen another movie more times than it.

I like the original David Lynch Dune and the Sci-Fi Channel Dune movies alot, but neither of them do the book justice.

Who was pro wrestler, Kevin Nash, apperently.

Edit: I like Replacement Killers abit, even though it apperently wasn't rated too highly. Chow Yun Fat gunplay = good.

The Brendan Frasier movie or the old one? The new one was a pretty good popcorn movie. Haven't seen the old one yet.

I guess Brenden Frasier himself goes on the guilty pleasures list... it's embarrassing, but I gotta admit it.

Yeah, but the whole movie was suprisingly funny. I really like Thomas Haden Church.
