I disagree. I was really looking forward to that remake, but found it more of a re-imagining. The character of Barbera was completely unrecognisable from the original. in the original she was almost catatonic with fear throughout,

Which annoyed me, to be honest. And yes, I saw the black and white version before the color. I wished someone would have snapped her out of her catatonia because they needed her help. And while the Ripley thing might be a stereotype, per se, I prefer to think that some ladies would step up similarly rather than be dead weight.  ;D

But I am often wrong...

( im kinda an expert on zombie flicks,, sorry).

I have seen several, but probably not nearly as many as you. I bow to your expertise.

Dawn was a good effort comenting on our consumerist lifestyle that has just gotten worse.

The original Dawn of the Dead is fantastic. While the acting is questionable and the special effects are so-so, the story is very, very good.

Day was talking about the Reaganistic philosophy of millitary might in the civilian world and Land was about the Bush/Cheney regime sweeping thier mess under a carpet hoping no one finds out.

But what was all that teaching-zombies-to-do-stuff cowpoo? :D Shoot them in the head, dammit! :D

I just watched A Scanner Darkley by Phillip K richard.
 The ending was great,, and twisty as hell as far as Im concerned.

A twisty Phil richard story? No way!

 :)

When will I ever learn? The Box was indeed a waste of valuable life time. Im truly, truly sorry that I watched it. 3/10 is bumping it up a few notches to be honest with you. I love Frank Langella, that was my only motivation behind seeing this. I havent read anything more than magazine articles since I started school and to think....I could of started something great tonight.  :'(

Saw it this morning.
Now before I give my creitique..we all know that Im the guy that liked V For Vendetta and cought hell from it by someone,, and caught hell for not liking the rings trilogy.
And,, well, I like off beat movies.
And honestly,, I thought The Box blew chunks!
Cheapie,, your raiting was a bit liberal.
I have to give it maybe a 1.5 out of 10.
Atleast it had color to it.
I keep my standards low.
That way im never disapointed.

So 2012 was a pilot episode? That explains a lot. I'm surprised a network took up the option though after such a shite pilot.  ;D

See, now this sucks.  I've heard a few RL friends say 2012 wasn't bad but I trust you guys more for the fairest review.  Now to the "this sucks" part.  You know I'm gonna watch it, even when I believe you guys saying it's horrible.  It's John Cusack ffs, and I'm not ashamed to admit that he's my man-crush.  So I'm gonna see it...eventually.

John, I wish I could quit you.
