I am in your camp.

It was much better than Avatar and what After Earth will be.
Who says Video Games aren't art?
Well at least it made money...
That is what it is all about isn't it?
Yes she was.
I nominate Girl With The Gold Boots or possibly Angel’s Revenge.
Outside of the ties to Scientology, it actually sounds like an interesting plot.
However, I have never fully recovered from Jaden’s performance in the “Karate Kid” remake.
Girl with the Gold Boots was bad, but it was no Manos.
At least Angel’s Revenge had Jack Palance in it!
That’s the thing isn’t it? Something that makes a good movie premise makes a terrible principle to dedicate your life and faith to.
I loved Caddyshack for example, but wouldn’t subscribe to a religion that was dedicated to killing gophers or a member/guest golf tournament.
I’d go with “Be the Ball” for the basis of a Caddyshack religion, according to the Gospel of Ty.
Gotta beat Ishtar for that title...
I’m just tired of Will Smith making Hollywood put his son in every movie. He was OK in the Karate Kid remake, but it’s gotten old very quickly. Now we’re at the point where they’re a matching pair so his kid gets more exposure... “tonight on Conan, Will Smith & Jaden Smith!!” Geesh Will, let your son do something on his own merits and not daddy’s name.
Quite right. I also thought Judge Smails was quite a spiritual man.
“I’ve sentenced boys younger than you to the gas chamber. Didn’t want to do it. I felt I owed it to them. “
The 1960s was a transitional period and not as good a time for American films as was the ‘50s or ‘70s.
P.S. ‘...River Kwai’ was 1957.
And made one think about how “shine your love’.
Huge Mass Effect fan here! The first game was my favorite, followed by second and third in order. While some of the first games mechanics were clunky, it captured my sense of exploration and wonder.
However The Atmosphere in Mass Effect 1 was, beyond amazing!
Just the Music, the Dialog, even the Back Button Sound was just incredible!
Now Mass Effect 2 was gritter and lacked that "New Car/Game" feeling, but that wasn't what it was trying to do.
I like 1 & 2 equally.
Now as for Mass Effect 3.......

It would have been better if the game was completely terrible.
But it is not. It has some of the best moments in the whole series.
The Reaper war felt Huge. Even if we didn't get to see alot of it.
Sadly, because of that EPIC WARZ thing they went for, even more the RPG got lost and it felt.....smaller in other ways.
Then of Course the Ending.
But we won't talk about that.
The Problem with M.E. 3 was that it was released as a completely Vanilla Game, I.E. the absolute Basics.
You Want More? 10$ PLEASE!
I own me3, but couldn’t import/recreate my fem Sheps face to a satisfying degree, which took me out of the game. I will probably play it this summer with all the dlc in the order that sounds right to me. Based on the crappy ending(imho),I will stop playing at the point when you take the elevator to meet that little space brat.
